It’s true, mystery can be difficult — although I always enjoy a good suspense comic. And $4 is a bit more than an impulse purchase for me too. It’ll be interesting to see how this story plays out over the next two issues.

I flipped through it at the comic shop today. It’s kitschy and kind of cute. But the art really isn’t very good and the writing just didn’t pop enough for me. The 4 dollar sticker price sure doesn’t help either.

But even the more high quality, lavishly executed but blandly written “First Wave” series didn’t last long on my pull list and I love those characters. Sometimes nostalgia just isn’t enough I guess.

I think it’s hard to translate the “detective” genre to comic form. I can remember really wanting to like Marvels “Dakota North” series back in the day, but it had similar problems. I mean, I love the Rockford Files, but I don’t think it would make a very good comic book.
