Elsewhere... I forgot to visit the swamp

Wilderness Exploration



Last week's Five for Friday assignment was an awesome one. Spurgeon asked us to Name Five Areas From Comics You'd Like To Explore. Mine are below, but the whole post is full of excellent places ripe for discovery in comicsland.

1. DC's undersea kingdoms (Atlantis, Lemuria, etc.)
2. Marvel's Savage Land
3. Bone's Valley
4. The world of Kazu Kibuishi's Copper
5. Conan's world as drawn by John Buscema

After I sent in my answers I realized that I left out Pogo's Okefenokee Swamp. I should've put that instead of the Savage Land, which Spurgeon had already listed in his picks. 

What Looks Good for November



Last week's Gorillas Riding Dinosaurs column was a peek at what looks good in new, adventure comics in this month’s Previews.

Holmes for kids



This week's Gorillas Riding Dinosaurs was a look at the On the Case with Holmes and Watson series and whether or not certain characters should only be read by certain age groups.

Yay for Ax Cop! Can't wait!

Keystone/Central Cities(DC)
Opal (DC)
Guy's Bar on Oa
Norton's Pub (Goon)
Kadie's Club Pecos (Sin City)

One of the things I love about DC is the work some writers have put into making their cities seem so real and different from just using New York.
