Peach Fuzz Comic Reviews

  Issue #1 Super fun issue. Christopher Chance is honestly a different voice than any other King has written so far. I love how casual he is about everything. With the I love you too note in the flash forward it seems like he’ll keep that mindset even in the face of death. The art is also very special. So fitting for the nature of this comic. Even the cover feels super artistic and expressive instead of just being a pure marketing eye grab.  Issue #2 “Bwa-ha-ha” is the perfect description of JLI. “Yesterday I was dead. Today I’m in trouble.” Good line. Chance is casual but still holding some cards close to his chest, I like that. Super loving the title cards (title pages?). Issue #3 This is classic douchebag guy, which I can appreciate to a degree, but I feel like even with the comic from Chance’s perspective, was too much, too antagonistic. I would argue Booster is less about hiding the mistakes and more about having to integrate them as part of his identity. It’s what happen...

  Issue #1 Dream and his Dream selves? The J.H. art is nothing short of a spectacle.  Issue #2 Dreams across time. Interesting. Forgot about Daniel.  Issue #3 Yay we get a story. How lovely. Hope is just a gem I hope things end happy for always for her. Unfortunately, this doesn’t look like it will be the case. Loving loving my man J.H.’s work here. Super expansive and dreamlike. This issue swallowed me whole.  Issue #4 Dream being so hesitant to kill was actually really sad. I wonder if Delirium could help. Or why Death didn’t just take over. I guess it wasn’t their place. A lot of crazy time stuff here. Hope is one of the best Dream duo characters, I hope this isn’t the end for her. It’s cool seeing Dream go from thoughtful and personable to selfish and moody to thoughtful and moody.  Issue #5 Just so beautiful. To be able to create and take the audience into such a new world. Seeing all the aliens saved by Dream, individuals for all the trillions that died, s...

  Issue #1 Yeah Constance is hysterical. Gotta give her grace with having a kidnapped kid I guess. I feel like this art does a great job at transporting you to a different era. The Bat-Man symbol and alias made me roll my eyes. I wonder how that’s gonna work contextually. That ending does a lot, I liked it. Why is Batman talking to Slam? How does Slam know his identity?  Issue #2 I like these rare but “normal” murders. Cool to see a Gotham that’s sort of purer, at least one that isn’t being torn apart at the seams and is being held together solely through the efforts of Bruce Wayne. I don’t know if you can call it noir sensibilities or just general detective stuff but I love the way Slam is written. “I heard you. They’re serious people, Sue. Fine. I’ll make sure not to laugh too much at their funeral.” Ice cold. Kinda cool how hateable the Wayne’s are here. Okay let’s go with dislikable considering the stress level, but I wonder if they brought this on themselves somehow. I li...

  Issue #1 What a violent first issue. I know nothing about the Omega Men but I did not expect them to be scorched earth types. I wonder if there’s a Darkseid or at least Apokoliptian connection. Don’t know enough about what’s going on to get a good feel about this series so far.  Issue #2 There’s gonna have to be a lot of work done to make me see the Omega Men as good guys, or at least, like them. They really just kill everybody. I liked Kyle turning the Omega symbol into a Green Lantern symbol matched with the oath being a form of prayer.   Issue #3 That was actually an insane plot twist. I hope this is continued to be further constructed. The princess having this pretense of kindness was so blatant, I liked that it was curved in the direction of being this mastermind for whatever purpose. Everyone in this comic except Kyle seems like the absolute worst . Disturbing how in control the Princess was. Wonder how much the other Omega Men know about what’s going on and ...

  Issue #1 Only three issues is sad but what a first issue. Held my attention until the very end. I quite liked Larry, that was a sad death. It’s crazy how similar the Hollywood industry still is. Hopefully Death isn’t coming for anyone, but I know that’s a long shot.  Issue #2 Death is such a strange beacon of hope it’s both inspiring and oddly fascinating. Gaiman’s sort of punchy humor gets me good. I wonder what’s the larger purpose of the dreams. I know yes, it’s all dreams, but it’s an interesting connection in this story named after Death. Also, kinda crazy that Death has just been chilling, hanging around. I hope that nothing like Hazel killing Foxglove happens. Issue #3 I can’t remember if this happened in the original Sandman, but if it did I completely forgot it. That page of death…Can’t quite put that feeling into words. It’s large. Intense. I appreciated that this story about Death and deals and stardom had a very homely feel to it. It did feel like it meandered du...

  Issue #1 I think the fact that most adults can’t see the kids is great. That’s how life feels when you’re young anyway. Issue #2 Things are picking up. What a cool connection. For a second I wondered if it really could be Gadling but then remembered the way he’s able to keep on living. That’s not really fakeable. I wonder if he’s having his identity stolen or if this Marquis guy is just mostly full of it. A family passing down their resources onto the next generation to fight an immortal killer can fill the pages of an independent series. Issue #3 It’s funny that he was clearly de Rais, then I went to thinking the similarity of appearance was coincidental, then thinking he might be some type of malicious entity, then this issue being so clear throughout that the kids have been far too trustworthy. (Not a flaw, the level of gullibility was explained after all.) A funny route to follow.  Issue #4 I like the motherly teacher side character. Not a very complicated mystery or one...

  Secret Origins (2014) #10   A little scattered but a fun look on Babs’ life.  The Ronnie and Jason differences are so boring.  Poison Ivy always had a weird history with consent but I did not expect her to full on tongue kiss her dad. Insanity
