Zenescope comics are often overlooked by comic book fans, mainly because of their cheesecake covers. Men are usually drawn to the covers while most, not all, but most women turn their noses up at the colorful artwork. This stigma that Zenescope carries is not warranted, they in fact are writing some of the best stories in comic books today.

Review: Hollywood Zombie Apocalypse #1

Hollywood Zombie Apocalypse #1 - Zenescope Entertainment

I have always felt, that when the end of days hit, - you know, the zombie apocalypse - that the fault would somehow lie with Lady Gaga. I mean come on, is there anyone that’s a bigger weirdo than Lady Gaga? And, so it is, in this new horror comic book from Zenescope Entertainment, that the crazy b!+$#  actually starts a fad that leads to the Hollywood Zombie Apocalypse.

Hollywood Zombie Apocalypse starts with unknown actor Michael May who has gotten his first big break, a starring role in a new Hollywood superhero flick alongside a who’s who of A-List actors. Accompanied by his stoner buddy, Michael’s good fortune doesn’t last long, thanks to you know who.

There’s a great deal of humor throughout the comic book, Lady Gaga’s responsibility for the outbreak for one, a couple great jabs at ‘Justin Bieber’ and some other hilarious parodies of other well-known stars. The comic book is well drawn, the story is interesting, but I think the coolest part is the title; Hollywood Zombie Apocalypse. Awesome! If I have to list any faults with the comic book, it would have to be that it’s a two-part story. 

All in all Hollywood Zombie Apocalypse is a good story worth reading. Check it out today at White Dragon comics, the friendliest comic book shop on the net.

Review: Wytches #1

Wytches #1 - Image Comics

Turn on the lights, lock the doors, check the closets and under the beds and most assuredly do not look out the windows, Wytches is coming. Not your run of the mill, everyday teenagers playing at magic, but real, terrifying, powerful Wytches. The all-new Wytches, written by Scott Snyder, is not your ordinary tale of “witches” but a truly horrific look at real Wytches and what they are capable of. 

Snyder's all-new horror comic book starts with a bullying incident (that in itself is quite disturbing) that goes terribly wrong.The Rooks family and their daughter Sailor have recently moved trying to start over and transition to normal life after Sailors’s recent and harrowing ordeal, each recovering in their own way. Sailor returns to school, a new school, but the events of her past does not take long to resurface and the terror that haunts Sailor returns. There is something lurking in the woods, but who or what is unclear. The one thing that is defined, it is interested in Sailor and her family.

The artwork by Jock brings Wytches to terrifying life. The comic books unsettling tone is due in large part to the bold, aggressive line work by artist Jock and enhanced by colorist Matt Hollingsworth. Hollingsworth's warm tones bring the small town life to life inviting and alluring, but that soon changes becoming dark, sinister and frightening.

Wytches #1 brings the horror back to comic books. The artwork and writing together give readers a truly terrifying tale that is only just beginning. Comic book fans do yourself a favor pick up a copy of Wytches today you will not be disappointed.

Series Review: Batman Eternal

Batman Eternal - DC Comics

Batman Eternal Comic Books are a brand new weekly series launched by DC Comics. Batman Eternal will feature Gotham City, Batman and his allies. Batman Eternal comic books will run for a year, before taking a short hiatus and then return for a second year. Batman Eternal #1 comic is drawn by Jason Fabok who gives the first issue a beautifully illustrated story that gives writers, Snyder and Tynion's first chapter an almost cinematic feel.

Making his New 52 debut in Batman Eternal, police lieutenant Jason Bard’s first night on the job doesn't go as planned, and leads him to a pretty awkward introduction to Commissioner Gordon, a first encounter that goes down in a way that is decidedly unexpected. Newbie Bard is a rookie cop, but he’s not your run of the mill, stereotypical do-gooder. He’s a good cop trying to find his place in a hostile bed of corruption.

By the end of the first issue, we see Batman’s world turned upside down as one of his closest allies, Jim Gordon, is arrested for recklessly causing a subway accident that killed several people. But is he really responsible? The mysteries will only deepen from here on out. In the weeks that follow, allegiances will shift, as Darkness spreads and new heroes arise.

Batman Eternal Comic book is published weekly giving readers four to five chapters a month, depending on the month. Batman Eternal comic book is currently on issue 33 and White Dragon Comics have nearly all chapters in stock.

Batman Eternal is a great read, not just for a weekly series, but for any comic series. The weekly release keeps you on your toes and fully engrossed in the story, which is surprisingly consistent, given the frequent releases and rotation of writers. This is well worth the read. Catch up now!

Review: Bad Kitty One-Shot

Chaos: Bad Kitty One-Shot – Dynamite Entertainment

Dynamite Entertainment’s new “Chaos” line brings fans an all new one-shot comic book, “Bad Kitty.” One of the most popular Chaos characters, Bad Kitty is a cop, but is she a good cop, or is Bad Kitty a bad cop? This is a comic book, so you know she’s both. How? Split personality is how; a bad ass, no holds barred, shoot now and ask questions later, split personality.

The comic book starts off with our heroine, Bad Kitty, as a child Katherine playing in a sandbox with a friend. This is where we learn about Katherine’s imaginary friend, whom she never sees only hears. Others are not so lucky; they not only get to hear her they get to see her. Katherine’s friend has a disagreement and he soon meets Kittty, with violent results.

Flash forward fifteen years, Katherine is grown and a police officer. Kat is interviewing a suspect, trying to bust a huge drug ring led by a man named Domiko. Staking out a lead, supplied by the suspect, Kat and her partner become separated, when he leaves to follow a kid.  The kid throws a grenade at the car with Kat still inside. The car explodes; this is where our story truly begins.

Waking in a hospital bed is Kitty, not Kat our heroic police officer. The interesting thing is that Kitty does not realize fifteen years have passed. She acts like a ten year old, but plans her revenge in a very adult way. The interaction with her partner is well written, especially when he realizes Kat is not Kat, she is Kitty. And who the hell is Kitty?

Find out today, just who Katherine/Kitty is at White Dragon Comics Chaos Character page.
