Firstly, thanks to Scott Tilson for very graciously allowing me access to a column he founded and smartly penned; I will
do my best to carry on the mission, Scott.
Second, what you're looking at is a compilation of one week's worth of comics, selected variably, listed alphabetically, and sorted by week of release. (It's probably too much to read in one sitting, but at the same time a mere fraction of what's happening in this market today.) Finally, don't look for frequent reviews of the more popular stuff here, e.g. Spider-Man or Batman, X-Men or JLA -- they get plenty of attention at the sites you can link to through our handy comics index. Instead, we'll be dipping into a combination of the low print run mainstream and independent, alternative, web-based or small press stuff. If there's a series or book you want to see or think ought to be reviewed here, drop me a line.

Sequential Art a column by Matthew Peckham What if virtual reality was instead "reality" experienced virtually through remote-controlled bodies? Would crimes like rape or other forms of physical assault be felonies, or just "property damage"? What sort of world might it be if everyone locked themselves away and filled it with stand-ins? Top Shelf's new trade collection of Robert Venditti's The Surrogates mini-series explores those and other issues in a weird future where humans interact vicariously through robotic simulacrums.

In over two decades of reading science fiction & fantasy, prose or sequential art form, Scott has come to see there's an inversion of Sturgeon's Law: ten percent of everything is at least good or better. He is also a regular panelist at Canada's largest SF convention. Will Eisner is the creator of Spirit and one of the founders of the original graphic novel form. He called comics "The Sequential Art" and it is to him this column is dedicated. | |

This time, he is recommending author Frank Miller and artist Dave Gibbons' Give Me Liberty and Preacher: Gone To Texas by author Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon. And Scott asks George R.R. Martin what he's reading these days.
