A Saturday Full of Comic Joy

Mitzi, Alli and I went to Cosmic Comix today and brought home some fantastic stuff, a few of which I’d like to mention…

Star Trek: Countdown

All of my fellow Star Trek fans who are excited about the new film should drop everything and grab a copy of “Countdown”. Not only does it tie things up beautifully, is well written and wonderfully drawn, but I feel it’s mandatory reading for anyone planning on going to see the 11th movie next month.

Ignition City (1 of 5)

Freak Angels continues to be the best web comic ever and something I look forward to every week. Today I figured it was time to venture more into the world and work of Warren Ellis. Warren is definitely in my top 5 of people to follow on twitter (if you don’t have a twitter account, shame on you) and it was through one of his tweets recently that we found out about “Ignition City”. The only issue I have with this comic now that I’ve finished reading it, is that I have to wait until #2 comes out for more!

Anna Mercury (Volume 1: The Cutter)

This collection (of books 1-5) is another brilliant work from Ellis, with amazing artwork done by Facundo Percio. I don’t know how Warren comes up with this stuff but I love it! Check out the Avatar Press page to read up on how cool the Anna Mercury series really is. I surely hope there’s more coming out soon…
