I'm continuing to dig this iteration of Wonder Woman steeped in magic from the bowels of Hell. Nuanced, layered, and cool with all sorts of connections to her mythical origins. I like the new character design and the solutions that the writers have c ...more

A really enjoyable mystery plays out at an all-girls school. A very popular girl is found dead in the woods and the new girl misfit is the one who ends up sleuthing the truth while being a suspect herself. There's an LGBT background to the plot that ...more

The Confessional by Paige Hender

A pretty wonderful story of a fledgling prostitute vampire and her love affair with a priest. The art is stylized in a way that's almost cutesy and the writing is effective if a smidge on the soap opera side but that's more the premise than anything ...more
