Pretty Deadly 10 review
Two of Kelly Sue DeConnick’s creator-owned comics released today, this and Bitch Planet 8. While Bitch Planet is a good series about non-compliant women in prison with heavy anti-sexism themes, I find it more enjoyable to talk about Pretty Deadly. … Continue reading
Pretty Deadly 9 review
As much as the Pretty Deadly series is so deep and dense with its mythology and poetry that the first arc needs several readings to understand, the second arc has been simpler for the most part. The story is a … Continue reading

Pretty Deadly 8 review
Considering how complex the first volume of Pretty Deadly is, it’s interesting to see how much more straight forward the second arc is. That’s not to say there isn’t anything behind the surface that you don’t notice the first time … Continue reading

Comics of February 3, 2016
So for the first time since I got into comics, I didn’t pick up an Uncanny X-Men issue. UXM2 was not only mediocre on the writing front, but Greg Land’s art was terrible and they needlessly killed off a fan … Continue reading

Pretty Deadly 7 review
Pretty Deadly is an unusual comic to say the least. It’s not just that each issue greatly benefits from multiple readings. It’s not that it somehow combines a western, mythology, fairy tale and poetry (and in issue 6 and 7, … Continue reading

Pretty Deadly 6 review
It’s been a year and a half since the last issue of Pretty Deadly. This creator-owned series by writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and artist Emma Rios is a blend of western, mythology, fairy tale and song, in a way that’s … Continue reading
