Jonah Hex and the Shadow of Death #1: 4⭐️. Great setup from Michael Walsh. Gritty Western meets creeping horror, and I love the art and Toni-Marie Griffin’s colors. Got the Julian Totino Tedesco cover, which I freaking love. Definitely looking forward to more! #Comicsky #NCBD

Bleeding Hearts #8 hit me right in the feels. Watching Cara and Poke trying to save Rabbit was heartbreaking. Camp has me so invested in these characters, and Morian’s art makes it hurt even more. Still one of my favorite books each month. So damn good! #Comicsky

Let This One Be a Devil: 4.5⭐️. Really enjoyed this! Creepy Jersey Devil horror, fascinating folklore, and family tension that kept me invested in Henry’s story. Tynion and Foxe deliver, and Kowalski’s art makes the monster wonderfully nasty. A really good, unsettling read. #Comicsky

Feral Vol. 5: Catching Strays. 5⭐️. I’ve loved this series from the beginning, but this volume put me through it. Heartbreaking, crazy intense, and beautifully drawn. I care so much about these cats. And they pull in Stray Dogs! 🤌 Just get them somewhere safe! Absolutely loved it. #Comicsky

Conan: The God in the Bowl and Other Stories. 5/5. Absolutely loved this! Murder mystery, creeping horror, dark sorcery, & beautiful Cary Nord art. @kurtbusiek.bsky.social gets Conan’s attitude and sharp instincts so well. Exactly what I want from Conan. Ready for the next volume! #Conan #Comicsky

Just finished Issue #16 of The Machiavelli Ledger Weekly. Most months Conan fans get one comic. This month we got five Robert E. Howard books from two publishers, and every one was good. We are living in a time of riches. #comicsky

Just finished The Closet. 4.5⭐️. Really sad, really real. Tynion’s dialogue is excellent, and the art gives the horror room to hurt. But the family dynamics got under my skin most. Jamie broke my heart, and his dad is a huge asshole. I just wanted someone to put this poor kid first. #Comicsky

Just finished Gyo by Junji Ito. 3.5 stars. Jaws on land with mechanical legged fish and a death stench. Super weird, creepy and fun. The art is great, the story is light. Worth it for the body horror and the sheer audacity. #comicsky 💙📚🩸

Just finished Conan the Barbarian #35. 5⭐️. Monsters, dark sorcery, brutal fights, and absolutely amazing art! Loved Valeria getting the spotlight and Conan hunting cultists through the jungle. Zub, Dagnino, and Rodriguez absolutely cooked. Peak Conan! Can’t wait for the next issue!! #Comicsky #Conan

Just finished The Cimmerian: Xuthal of the Dusk #1. A slow build, but a good one! Great art that feels like Conan. Nudity, brutal fights, creeping horror… very Savage Sword! Love getting REH’s original prose alongside the adaptation. High hopes for this series! #Comicsky

@patrickzircher.bsky.social’s Solomon Kane was the best thing I read all week. Again. Absolutely incredible. And I almost bumped a Conan rating from 4⭐️ to 5⭐️ because I trust @jimzub.com that much to pay off what he’s setting up. This week’s Ledger is about earning that kind of trust 👇 #Comicsky

Just finished Solomon Kane: The Lion Errant #3, and @patrickzircher.bsky.social writes, draws, and colors a masterpiece! Solomon finally reaches Gondwana as the war takes shape, and every page is packed with detail, from the world-building to the stunning art. I loved taking it all in. 5⭐️ #Comicsky

Universal Monsters: Blood of the Wolf Man #4 is a home run of a finale! A great story with real heart, and absolutely stunning art. Leomacs makes every page eerie, brutal, bloody and beautiful. I kept stopping just to take it all in. 5⭐️. And that cover 🤌🔥. #Comicsky

Just finished The Flash #37. @ryannorth.ca crushes it again! How far ahead should Wally step in? Is he saving people, or can people change their minds? A great hook with a twist I didn't see coming. Great story, great conversation, great fun. 4.5 stars #comicsky

Just finished The Last Driver #2 by Sean Murphy and Simon Gough. So much heart for a car chase book. The flashback hits hard, the landscape format makes every chase fly, and the art is absolutely amazing. Great fun. #comicsky

Just finished Conan: Tides of the Tyrant King #1. Mostly setup, but good setup which makes sense for the first issue in the arc. Merino's art is great, & pulling Stephen Costigan into Conan's world is a smart move. Zub keeps building out the whole Howard universe and I'm all in. 4⭐️. #comicsky #Conan
