I met Richard A Hamilton at the recent Long Beach Comic Con while he was at 'The Antidote Trust' booth. Back on August 22nd I had blogged about the first issue of this 3 part comic book series, (click here for that post). He remembered the blog post and asked me if I had seen the next two issues of that series. I hadn't, but told him that with the first issue being so good, that it had a good start and would remember to look for the final two issues. That's when he told me that the three issue mini-series was being 'collected' into a Trade Paper Back (TPB). Now the mini-series is available as a TPB for those of you that didn't get all three issues of the 'floppies' (single issues) either! Here are the details for this collected mini-series: (Writer) Richard A. Hamilton (Art) Jeremy Dale, Rob Jones Format: GRAPHIC NOVEL (TPB) Okay, if You have already clicked on the link above that would have taken you to my earlier blog post on the first issue of this series... You would know that I loved the premise, the writing, the artwork... everything actually about the first issue. So, having now read the TPB, I was able to finish the story arc that was presented in the first issue. You know... it didn't disappoint me! The story was funny AND entertaining, the pencils by Jeremy Dale were just right for this series, and Rob Jones complemented the artwork by inking it. Colors by Jelle Van Den Brink added to the whole presentation. I for one enjoyed seeing this in a TPB (graphic novel style) format! This was a fun read... and I would say it would be for those that don't always want their comics in a 'grim and gritty' style. I also appreciated the 'winks' to the well known Dynamic Duo, who in this story are portrayed as 'The Cowl' and 'Kid Cowl'.
