Shadowhawk takes a look at and talks about the top DC comics to watch out for in August, single issues and graphic novels alike.
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the second comics round-up for September.
“This is DC’s big month for the year, Villain’s Month and as expected, there are all sorts of stories here: good ones, bad ones, average ones and everything in between those three.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
“Geoff Johns brings his run on Green Lantern to a superb finish, executing the Third Army arc superbly. Wonder Woman’s third volume however is strong but imperfect, whilst over at Image, East of West Vol. 1 ranks among some of the best comics that I’ve read all year.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk runs down a couple new, exciting kickstarters.
“A kaiju anthology with stories from some of my favourite writers? Sure, I’ll be having seconds! And supporting another favourite author for his unpublished short story collection? Yes please!” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

“Scary, creepy vampires plus some of the best writers in comics right now. This is a fantastic mix of story and talent!” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
“An excellent anthology showcasing the best of what comics has to offer. Absolutely loved it. A must read whether you’ve read the original American Vampire series or not, American Vampire Anthology #1 is not only Pick of the Week, but Pick of the Month, and a very strong contender for Pick of the Year” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
