    Is this real life?

    Questions about what´s reality and what´s fantasy always existed in societies all over the world and at all times. What this comic book brings is exactly this question: Am I living a real life or something virtual? And though the idea isn´t original or new, Nate Simpson must get all the credits for doing something cool, refreshing and extraordinary interesting with this idea. Nonplayer exceeded all my expectations, both in the art and story department. I was blown away by all the character´s concepts, the beasts, the armors, the weapons, the amazing battle scenes, panel by panel the storytelling is impressive, it´s so calculated, there´s no room for error or blimps here, this was a meticulous work by the artist. I really liked how the story was unfolding and how what at first seemed like a real-medieval-interdimensional-other galaxy-fantasy tale become an astonishing sci-fi-VR-hi-tech story and that transformation only made me more curious for what´s next. I apreciate good comic books that deals with other themes other than super heroes and this is definitely something new that´s worth checking out. Highly Recommended!

But the thing that really made me turn my head was the fact that it "sold out before it even hit the stands." Now I don't usually fall for that type of marketing hype-- that's classic Image. Under-print a potentially "hot" book to generate buzz and create a subset of rabid fans clamoring to pick up the first issue. Admitte...

      I'd trade both of my cats for a Pookie! 0

      I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. So I flipped though this Wednesday at the shop out of pure curiousity and was stunned by the art. Think Ryan Bodenheim only cleaner and brighter. Very nice! The story starts off in what one would assume is a fantasy realm of sorts. Our protaganist is a red headed warrior broad named Dana. Dana takes off down the mountainside on a flying cat named Pookie and starts some shit with the big cheese and his army. Violence, action, gore playout in a well paced fight...
