I guess I don't want to turn people off. I went into the comics hobby thinking of it as a geek-niche world. While that is definitely true to a point, I believe the medium has a lot to offer the serious reader, even if such a reader wouldn't normally give comics a try.<br /><br />Of the three I've reviewed so far, the only series I can see myself pursuing beyond one issue is the first one: Atlas. The other two just aren't my cup of tea. However, I feel they're both deserving of a broader audience, even if that audience doesn't include me.<br /><br />I can promise some snark down the line. However, I don't think there were any that I would encourage people to ignore completely.The Armchair Squidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13509001761075530940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8586403344533829376.post-27312096230282962482013-04-03T21:29:21.112-04:002013-04-03T21:29:21.112-04:00Definitely disturbing.
