Lem Absher Comic Reviews

I know PENNY DREADFUL is based on a SHOWTIME program but I haven't watched it, which is good because I don't want to compare the two. I learned my lesson after watching TRUE BLOOD and then reading the juvenile tomes upon which that show was based. I am not much on heaping praise but this one is worth grabbing up! The characters are instantly compelling but not necessarily likeable which is great because I have a feeling it's going to take awhile for the villains to show themselves.

So"the artwork. It's average. I gotta admit it's consistent and reminds me of the Bazooka Joe style. That's NOT a bad thing. Minimalism is a tough thing to execute.

What VIOLENT needs is exactly that...VIOLENCE! I love a well thought out story. Compelling characters. Action when needed. My final analysis is pretty simple: LESS CHATTER. MORE SPLATTER!!!

If you want to start reading a new book with ALL the right stuff...Think Tank is the real deal!
