Keep going! The world needs more people reviewing more comic-related product, especially non-mainstream. I may not agree with all you write (I quite liked ’60 Ways’ for example), but the fact you have expressed your opinion is worth celebrating… More!!

I have to second support for Charley’s War, since it is highly regarded as “the best WWI comic ever created”. Considering all the other war comics created since then, it easily knocks out any competition off the table. It’s made all the more remarkable that it was only published in three/four-page segments a week. You think writing 22-page comics a month is a daunting task? Try telling a continuing narrative with those kinds of restrictions. It’s a wonder Pat Mills was able to keep that kind of natural suspense up for so long.

Charlie’s War fictionalizes World War I from the viewpoint of a volunteer (who lies about his age). When published in magazines, many veterans praised the historical accuracy and storylines.

DH is publishing big B&W omnibuses of Little Lulu. Chock full of story!

Hilary Knight is best know for illustrating the Eloise books.

And Drops of God is amazing! (The other big book from Vertical)
