Quick Flip #9

by Pete at 01:44 PM June 15, 2009 in quick flip, review

A new comics-curmudgeon diving head first into the thousands of back issues on our shelves, grabbing a random comic, writing what I think. Today’s issue:

Comic Book: Tor #4 (2 in stock)

I think this is a new-ish series about a classic character, rather than a re-issue of a classic work. It’s certainly done in a style that’s several decades old. As usual I’ve jumped in right in the middle, and the protagonist starts out below ground trying to escape from a tentacled beastie. The story is the classic “misfits and outcasts surviving in a hostile world”. There’s no dialog, just narrative, but the narration does capture the characters’ perspectives. Different from most of the things I’ve seen recently, nice change of pace.
