millennium mambo - back in to glasgow today for the latest in the electric shadows season, whcih continues all this week, this one was hit and miss - it seemed to have more potential than the end product actually delivered, which was a pity - though i think anything i've seen in the CCA is going to be tinged by just how uncomfortable a cinema it really is.
while i was in anyway, i went shopping:
karloff's circus - steve aylett - the fourth book of aylett's accomplice series is now on the shelves, the blurb on the back claims it is the rosetta stone that will make the other three make sense, i doubt it...
the changers book 2of2: our obligation to the future - ezra claytan daniels - just picked this up at random, no sign of book 1 typically, but looks promising enough anyway.
public domain: channel zero design book - brian wood
demo 3of12 - brian wood and becky cloonan
-was surprised to come across a stray copy of public domain, i've never actually seen it before and most of wood's books remain in stock. i knew the new demo was due so was watching for that anyway.
global frequency 11of12 - warren ellis and jason pearson
two step 2of3 - warren ellis and amanda conner
-two long awaited issues, ellis' material seems to be continually getting dicked with, so that this issue of global frequency at least, has been put back a couple of times.
midnight mass: here there be monsters 1of6 - john rozum and paul lee - i rather enjoyed the first series of the mystical investigators from midnight massachusetts, differnt interior artist - paul lee instead of jesus saiz, which is a pity, but looks decent; still covers by hanuka which are pretty striking.
hellblazer:staring at the wall 4of5 - mike carey and marcello fruisin - constantine is dead, yes, again... not sure about this turn of events, perhaps the weakest material of the time i've been reading the title, and the art certainly seems to be getting lazy, but we will see how it rounds out and what follows.
the losers 8 - andy diggle and shawn matrinbrough - got mixed feelings on this series, though reading the first 7 parts all together the other night did make a difference - initial impressions that this is a twist on 100 Bullets still hold to some degree, but at least it is better reading than fables which i dropped a lot quicker.
caper 4of12 - judd winick and farel dalrymple - the last part of this story, which i believe is also the end of the run by artist dalrymple, pity - i've been really enjoying this turn of the century story of jweish mobsters.
wildcats version 3.18 - joe casey and francisco ruiz velasco - i was surprised to find i enjoyed this series when i picked it up at first, the art being a major factor - with that the last few issues have been different artists, hopefully they'll sort that out pretty soon.
waterfall 1 and 2 - ben seto - i flicked through this before and had a "i'll think about it response", back in today and thought "go on then".
wanted 1 - mark millar and jg jones as above, though i have more doubts with this one, lets see if i make it to a second issue.
