Don't get anything on Comixology till there's a sale. GI Joe or IDW line-wide tends to get discounted there a few times a year.

The brick wall is definitely recalling this.


edit: As far as I can tell without reading them, the stories in the Silver Age crossover were original, just done in homage to the style.

The $50 one? It's small with low resolution, so expect to have to zoom and pan around a lot.

It wont be that bad. I dunno how it compares with an iPad mini, but I'm fine reading all of my comics in landscape, fit-to-width where you just have to scroll down.

There's also the view on Comixology where you just swipe and it moves you between full-screen panels.

drat. Creepshow was a huge childhood fave, and it's still totally great.

edit: For zombie comics, I really liked DC's GI Zombie from a couple of years ago. It has art by the guy currently doing the American Gods comic, if anyone's digging on that.
Also, Darwyn Cooke covers.

You should deffo start to recognize John Workman. Look at any Simonson Thor.
Dude still works on the current Batman and Mother Panic.

I dig his M's.

Yeah. Big KATHOOMs in Tom King's Batman is what clued me in.

edit: I'm guessing King told him to just whip out the Thor-type fonts, no matter the incongruity.
