    That's Not Current - Glenn Miller

    I highly recommend picking this up for some biting satire and good old fashioned violence. It might not be exactly like the Hook Jaw we once knew, but it's certainly a welcomed version for 2017. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Chris Tresson

    Anyways, to finish, I would recommend this book/series. Probably not this late into the series if you're coming in fresh to this, but if you're reading along with me, continue to do so. Read Full Review

    Hookjaw delivers the same level of tension you'd get from watching Jaws or The Shallows. You know this beast is lurking just beneath the surface, but the characters have to go into the water. Some of these folks are not all that developed, so it will be easy to watch them get eaten alive by a shark with a hook in its mouth. Read Full Review

    It's not Shakespeare admittedly, but it is a slice of over the top fun that works very well. Think of it as a comic book version of a SyFy Channel original film and you won't go far wrong. Read Full Review

    Nerdophiles - Kylee Sills

    Mar 01, 2017

    For a series rooted in shark attacks, they're used sparingly in this new iteration in favor of a much larger conspiracy. More questions are posed and very few answers are given, which feels too frenetic in a five-issue miniseries. It'd admirable to try to give some real substance to this character and the world Hook Jaw inhabits, but with so much going on and such a short amount of time to convey it all, I don't know that I anticipate a satisfying conclusion.
