Title: The Manhattan Projects
Publisher: Image
Brief description: What if the atomic bomb was just a small part of the Manhattan Project? What if they were making all kinds of creepy poo poo?
Why I like it: It's just weird as hell. The art reminds me of Rugrats and the characters are pretty hosed up. They're just laying the groundwork now, but it has some definite promise. Also they keep Einstein locked up in a vault for some reason.
Issue that is a good jumping on point: Issue 2 just came out this week, so the first one shouldn't be too hard to find.
Preview: http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=preview&id=10710

I'm going to go ahead and pimp one that I haven't read yet, because I'm pretty psyched for it.


Title: Popeye
Publisher: IDW
Brief description: Welp, it's a new Popeye comic done replicating the old art quite beautifully.
Why I like it: I am a sucker for Popeye. Plus, look at that cover. Look at it.
Issue that is a good jumping on point: Issue 1 comes out next week, it's going to be a four part series.

So did anybody check out Frankenstein Alive, Alive this week? I think I'm gonna pick it up tomorrow, it looks pretty sweet.

Wow. I am halfway through it right now, and I had to put it down just to post how loving incredible it is. The art is all black and white and just looks..gorgeous. It doesn't look like comic book art at all, it feels like a combination of old wood etchings and those pictures from scary stories to tell in the dark. Was the original run from the 80's this good? I might have to pick it up.
