Say hello to the night, Lost in the shadows

The Lost Boys (Comic) by Tim Seeley (writer), Scott Godlewski (artist)

I don’t recall what I was looking for on the library website when I stumbled across The Lost Boys comic, but I hit hold super fast.  After the 1987 movie, there were two straight-to-DVD sequels, and a comic series (Lost Boys: Reign of Frogs) but this comic is a direct sequel to the original film.  And this comic reads and feels like a sequel to a 1987 movie in both good and bad ways. So yes, the rest of this review will have some mild […]

So why do I like it? I really don’t know

Revival Deluxe Collection V02 by Tim Seeley, Mike Norton, Jenny Frison

There is sex, drugs and probably some rock and roll (but I was too busy covering my virtual ears from the saw that’s (spoiler) chopping up a body, to notice). If you have any kind of […]

The twist is that the vampire is NOT the merciless serial killer

2.5 stars Ah, the joys of reviewing something you read in about an hour about two weeks ago and that didn’t make that much of an impact. I’m sorry, but I have to once again resort to the lazy/forgetful reviewer’s trick of using the Goodreads summary: One’s a natural-born killer – a remorseless hunter gleefully prowling the night for victims to quench an unnatural blood lust. The other’s a vampire. His centuries of existence have left him world weary and detached, until one day his […]
