Lost Lad London Volume 3

The mystery concludes in Shima Shinya’s Lost Lad London volume 3. (I previously wrote about the first book and the second one.) This final volume begins with a fascinating chapter. Instead of showing the suspect Al and detective Ellis working on the case, we check in on the perspective of several supporting characters: Rosie, a female police officer; Safa, her co-worker, a woman of color who wears a headscarf; and the Asian couple who runs the Chinese restaurant where Al [...]

Michael Moorcock’s Multiverse Reprinted

Every so often, I am reminded that I have been doing this for a long while. The latest bit of nostalgia came from the announcement from Titan Comics that they will be releasing The Michael Moorcock Library: Multiverse Volume 1 on July 12. This 160-page hardcover reprints the first six issues of Michael Moorcock’s Multiverse, which was a 12-issue series that launched in November 1997 from DC Comics’ Helix science fiction imprint. I know I read it at the time [...]

Custom Tees – My New Favorite Way to Advertise My Site

Comics Worth Reading has never had a nifty logo, but my Sherlock Holmes in Comics site has a cool (imo), professionally designed (I think these two factors are related) one. Thus, when Rush Order Tees asked if I wanted to sample their product, I jumped at the chance. Now that I have a pretty logo, I wanted to promote it. They provided some credit for me to use, and I wandered through their no minimum order section. I am very [...]

My Favorite Comics and Manga of 2022

Been a while since I’ve done one of these… I don’t pretend to claim these are the best, as the comic industry has long moved beyond where one person could be familiar with everything coming out. These are the books that came out this year that really moved me or entertained me or left me with things to think about, presented in alphabetical order. All My Friends by Hope Larson Asylum by Greg Means and Kazimir Lee Cat + Gamer [...]

27 Years of New Comic Release Lists

For the last few years, I’ve been keeping copies of lists of what comics came out every week. It’s time for me to stop doing that, as my interests move away from that level of obsession, but I thought some might find it interesting to have as an archive.
