Introduction by Stephen King
The Killer Inside Me is a 1952 crime novel written by American author Jim Thompson (1906 to 1977). The Killer Inside Me is one of the best-regarded crime novels of the twentieth century, and has received praise from bestselling novelist, Stephen King (The Shining), and the acclaimed filmmaker, the late Stanley Kubrick (2001: A Space Odyssey).
In 2016 and 2017, IDW Publishing published a five-issue comic book adaptation of Thompson's novel, entitled Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me. The adaptation is written by Devin Faraci, a film critic and podcaster. It is drawn by Vic Malhotra; colored by Jason Millet; and lettered by Christa Miesner. Robert Hack drew the cover illustrations for the variant cover editions of this comic book.
In April 2017, IDW published a trade paperback that collected all five issues of Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me. At the back of this book, there is a 14-page section of illustrations and sketch material drawn by Malhotra and Hack. IDW sent me a copy of the Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me trade paperback for review.
Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me is set in around the small town of Central City, Texas. Lou Ford is a deputy for Sheriff Bob Maples. Ford is something of a psychopath, and as the story advances, it is obvious that he is a full-on serial killer. As Ford says, he has had a sickness inside him ever since he was a child.
Ford hatches a plan of blood revenge against the wealthy Chester Conway, the owner of Conway Construction, which seems to build everything in Central City. Ford's murderous plot involves Chester's not-too-bright son, Elmer, and Joyce Lakeland, a prostitute that Elmer loves and with whom he hopes to elope. Most people in Central City think Lou Ford is a little slow, but they don't know about the sickness inside him, a psychosis that is reemerging as the bodies pile up.
Over 20 years ago, I read my only Jim Thompson novel, The Grifters (1963), which I thought was brilliantly written. Once upon a time, when they were still talking, Fantagraphics Books' Gary Groth interviewed the late Harlan Ellison, in which either Ellison or Groth said that sometimes a work of art or storytelling is perfect in its original form. As much as I enjoyed director Stephen Frears and writer Donald E. Westlake's 1990 film adaptation of The Grifters, I thought the original, Thompson's novel, was perfect.
There is something lacking in Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me the comic book. This comic book adaptation is flat and lacks the hard-boiled lyricism I found in The Grifters. There are some good moments when this comic book can be furious and edgy, but quite a bit of the narrative smothers any embers that the plot kicks up. The fifth issue of this adaptation is the only one that consistently, from the first page to the last, has that bad-ass burn of American “noir.”
Although this comic book is by no means a disaster, Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me could have been better. I don't know what qualifies Devin Faraci to adapt a Jim Thompson novel to comics, especially after IDW published comic book adaptations of Richard Stark's (Donald E. Westlake) Parker crime novels, written and drawn by the late Darwyn Cooke, one of the best comic book creators of the last 20 years. There is something about Faraci's adaptation that seems to accept that it is inherently an inferior work.
Even Vic Malhotra's illustrations and graphic storytelling often come across as flat, even listless, unable to convey the power of the original story. Colorist Jason Millet's simmering hues do more to convey Jim Thompson's heat than any other contributor to this comic book. Christa Miesner's lettering is not spectacular, but creates a nice rhythm for the story.
While I have mixed feelings about Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me the comic book, I can recommend this trade paperback to comic book readers who are always looking for comic books adapted from novels.

Review: MAGE BOOK THREE The Hero Denied #1
MAGE, BOOK THREE: THE HERO DENIED No. 1
IMAGE COMICS – @ImageComics
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
WRITER/ARTIST: Matt Wagner
COLORS: Brennan Wagner
LETTERS: Dave Lanphear
28pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (August 2017)
Rated “T/ Teen Plus”
Chapter 01 “What's Past Is Prologue”
Written and drawn by Matt Wagner (Grendel), Mage is a fantasy comic book series with superhero elements. The series will be comprised of three volumes, each running 15 issues. The first was Mage: The Hero Discovered, which was published by defunct publisher, Comico the Comic Company, from 1984 to 1986. The second was Mage: The Hero Defined, which was published from 1997 to 1999 by Image Comics.
Image Comics recently began publication of the third and final volume, Mage: The Hero Denied. It is written and drawn by Matt Wagner; colored by Brennan Wagner; and lettered by Dave Lanphear.
The Hero Discovered introduced Kevin Matchstick, an alienated young man who meets a wizard called Mirth. Kevin discovers that he has superhuman abilities and that a magic baseball bat wielded by a friend actually belongs to him. That bat is Excalibur, and Kevin represents King Arthur.
The Hero Defined takes place several years later and finds Kevin fighting supernatural menaces in the company of other heroes. Kevin discovers that he has misunderstood his mission and that he represents more than one mythical hero. Kevin is also Gilgamesh, and he initially does not realize that his new mage/mentor is an old tramp named Wally Ut whom Kevin often chooses to dismiss as a crazy old annoyance. Kevin also meets his future wife.
Mage, Book Three: The Hero Denied, #1 (“What's Past Is Prologue”) finds Kevin Matchstick living in suburban splendor with his wife Magda; son, Hugo; and preschool daughter, Miranda. It has been years since his last adventure combating the forces of dark magic. Now, some dark magic ruffians have found him and so has a powerful adversary.
It is good to have Mage back. I find that The Hero Denied seems more like The Hero Discovered than it does as The Hero Defined – at least after one issue. Everything about it, the shimmering, rich colors; the structure of the plot; the settings; and the villains: all recall the spirit of the original series. That's what I want; nothing against The Hero Defined, but the original Mage is still close to my heart. It was one of the first independent comic books that I ever read. It was also one of the first magical fantasy comic books I had ever seen. In fact, the original seemed infused with magic.
So we are in the very early stages of The Hero Denied, but this feels right. It is a call home to the foundation of Mage, so I'm calling Mage fans back to this series. Since this is the first issue, I'll be a bit conservative with my grade.

Review: FUTURE QUEST PRESENTS #1
FUTURE QUEST PRESENTS No. 1
DC COMICS – @DCComics
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: Jeff Parker
ARTISTS: Ariel Olivetti
COLORS: Ariel Olivetti
LETTERS: A Larger World Studios
COVER: Ariel Olivetti
VARIANT COVER: Steve Rude
32pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (October 2017)
Rated “T” for “Teen”
“The Quest Reborn!”
“Space Ghost” was an American animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The series was created by animation conceptual artist, Alex Toth (who is also considered a legendary comic book artist) and was produced and directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. A half-hour show, “Space Ghost” first aired on CBS from September 10, 1966, to September 7, 1968.
“Space Ghost” starred a mysterious superhero named Space Ghost, who fought supervillains in outer space. He was assisted by two teenaged sidekicks, a girl named Jan and a boy named Jace, and their monkey named “Blip.” Space Ghost has made sporadic appearances in comic books. He returned in a slightly rebooted version in DC Comics' comic book miniseries, “Future Quest” (2016), which brought together characters from Hanna-Barbera's science fiction superhero animated TV series of the 1960 and early 1970s.
Now, Space Ghost and company get a their own story in the new Future Quest Presents. This Space Ghost adventure is written by Future Quest scribe, Jeff Parker; drawn and painted by Ariel Olivetti (who drew DC's 2005 Space Ghost six-issue miniseries); and lettered by A Larger World Studio.
Future Quest Presents #1 opens with Space Ghost dispatching a band of raiders. Then, it moves to a school where we find Jan and Jace learning about a history in which they recently played a part. History is emphasized, as Space Ghost is planning to revive the “Space Force,” of which he is the sole surviving member. First, he will need to begin gathering a metal that was important to the Space Force. That means a trip with Jan and Jack and Blip to Amzot, the planet of his friends, The Herculoids. But also waiting is an old enemy.
Future Quest Presents #1 is by no means great or even particularly good, but I'll take it. I have been a Space Ghost fan since I was a little kid, and there have never been enough Space Ghost comic books to suit me. Yeah, I expect more from writer Jeff Parker than I got here, especially coming off the wonderful Hanna-Barber tribute that was Future Quest. Hopefully, the series/story arc gets stronger.
I am a fan of artist Ariel Olivetti, and I did like his art in the one issue of the 2005 Space Ghost miniseries that I did read (issue #2). Here, he is inconsistent, but I think Olivetti may deliver some really good art and graphical storytelling as he gains momentum.
I am rooting for this comic book, and I plan to read the entire run – whether it is ultimately good or middling.

Rated “T” for “Teen”
“The Quest Reborn!”
“Space Ghost” was an American animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. The series was created by animation conceptual artist, Alex Toth (who is also considered a legendary comic book artist) and was produced and directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. A half-hour show, “Space Ghost” first aired on CBS from September 10, 1966, to September 7, 1968.
“Space Ghost” starred a mysterious superhero named Space Ghost, who fought supervillains in outer space. He was assisted by two teenaged sidekicks, a girl named Jan and a boy named Jace, and their monkey named “Blip.” Space Ghost has made sporadic appearances in comic books. He returned in a slightly rebooted version in DC Comics' comic book miniseries, “Future Quest” (2016), which brought together characters from Hanna-Barbera's science fiction superhero animated TV series of the 1960 and early 1970s.
Now, Space Ghost and company get a their own story in the new Future Quest Presents. This Space Ghost adventure is written by Future Quest scribe, Jeff Parker; drawn and painted by Ariel Olivetti (who drew DC's 2005 Space Ghost six-issue miniseries); and lettered by A Larger World Studio.
Future Quest Presents #1 opens with Space Ghost dispatching a band of raiders. Then, it moves to a school where we find Jan and Jace learning about a history in which they recently played a part. History is emphasized, as Space Ghost is planning to revive the “Space Force,” of which he is the sole surviving member. First, he will need to begin gathering a metal that was important to the Space Force. That means a trip with Jan and Jack and Blip to Amzot, the planet of his friends, The Herculoids. But also waiting is an old enemy.
Future Quest Presents #1 is by no means great or even particularly good, but I'll take it. I have been a Space Ghost fan since I was a little kid, and there have never been enough Space Ghost comic books to suit me. Yeah, I expect more from writer Jeff Parker than I got here, especially coming off the wonderful Hanna-Barber tribute that was Future Quest. Hopefully, the series/story arc gets stronger.
I am a fan of artist Ariel Olivetti, and I did like his art in the one issue of the 2005 Space Ghost miniseries that I did read (issue #2). Here, he is inconsistent, but I think Olivetti may deliver some really good art and graphical storytelling as he gains momentum.
I am rooting for this comic book, and I plan to read the entire run – whether it is ultimately good or middling.

Book Review: THE SEA QUEEN
THE SEA QUEEN
HARPERCOLLINS – @HarperCollins
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
AUTHOR: Linnea Hartsuyker
ISBN: 978-0-06-256373-6; hardcover (August 14, 2018)
464pp, B&W, $27.99 U.S., $34.99 CAN
The Sea Queen is a 2018 novel from author Linnea Hartsuyker. It is the direct sequel to The Half-Drowned King. The novel is set during Norway's “Viking Age,” specifically the time that marks the ascendancy of the first King of Norway, Harald Fairhair (called Harald Halfdansson in this novel). The Half-Drowned King focuses on a brother and sister who both play pivotal roles in Harald's campaign to defeat his enemies and unite Norway under one king.
Ragnvald Eysteinsson was known as “Ragnvald the Half-drowned.” Now, he is king of Sogn, the land his late father claimed, but he has been away from home fighting battles for King Harald. That has allowed a usurper, Atli Kolbrandsson, to make a claim on Sogn, a move that is just one example of a political landscape that grows more treacherous.
Meanwhile, Ragnvald's sister, Svanhild, has found freedom and adventure as the wife of rebel explorer, Solvi Hunthiofsson. Sailing the seas at her husband's side, Svanhild is known as “the Sea Queen,” because she is more capable at the helm of a ship than most men. However, Solvi has desires and ambitions; he wants to recapture lands he claims as his own, but that is controlled by Harald or his allies. Solvi returns to Norway, which leads to tragedy and drives a wedge between he and Svanhild.
A rebellion grows and unites Harald's enemies and also some he thought to be allies. Ragnvald suspects that some nobles are not really loyal to Harald's dream of a unified Norway. He sets a plan in motion to bring down enemies and traitors alike, but like his sister, he will make decisions that will cost him in the most personal ways.
I wrote in my review of The Half-Drowned King that my summary of the novel focused on Ragnvald, although his sister Svanhild played a major part in the novel. Svanhild is the lead character in about a third of the first novel, but The Sea Queen is as much her story as it is her brother's or Harald's.
The Sea Queen is allegedly only author Linnea Hartsuyker's second novel. I say allegedly because Hartsuyker either previously wrote under a pen name, or she is just simply a natural at this novel-writing game. Hartsuyker not only provides a deeply intimate portrayal and depiction of Svanhild and Ragnvald, but she also bares the souls, the cores, and the naked ambitions of numerous characters in this novel. Truthfully, many of them, including Solvi, Atli, and King Hakon (a frenemy), to name a few, could be the lead in this series.
Hartsuyker gives readers the details and local color in droves, as she mixes myth, legend, and history to transport her readers to a time in “pre-history” Norway of uncertain duels, fierce battles, sudden raids, and ancient blood feuds. It is her wonderful cast of characters, however, that truly makes The Sea Queen a page-turning, electrifying read. Linnea Hartsuyker is subtle in the way she pushes Svanhild to the front, but she is equally crafty in creating a book full of characters that you cannot stop thinking about even when the story moves from one to another. I heartily and highly-recommend The Sea Queen to readers who just love a good book just filled with superb and engaging characters.

Review: KICK-ASS #1
KICK-ASS No. 1 (2018)
IMAGE COMICS – @ImageComics

STORY: Mark Millar
PENCILS: John Romita, Jr.
INKS: Peter Steigerwald with Megan Madrigal
COLORS: Peter Steigerwald
LETTERS: John Workman
COVER: John Romita, Jr.
VARIANT COVER ARTISTS: Olivier Coipel with Sunny Gho; Frank Quitely

Rated M/Mature
Kick-Ass created by Mark Miller and John Romita, Jr.
Kick-Ass is a comic book series created by writer Mark Millar and artist John Romita Jr. It began as an eight-issue miniseries published by Marvel Comics under the company's Icon imprint, starting in February 2008 and concluding in February 2010.
Kick-Ass is the story of Dave Lizewski, a teenager who sets out to become a real life superhero. Dave's actions are publicized on the Internet and inspire other people to put on costumes and play hero. Dave gets caught up in the activities of two costumed, ruthless vigilantes, an exceptionally talented fighter/killer, Hit-Girl, and her father, Big Daddy. Father and daughter are on a mission to take down the gangster. John Genovese.
Kick-Ass became a comic book franchise with three follow-up miniseries, the seven-issue Kick-Ass 2 (October 2010 – March 2012), the five-issue Hit Girl (June 2012 – February 2013), and the eight-issue Kick-Ass 3 (July 2013 to October 2014). The Kick-Ass comic books yielded two movies, Kick-Ass (2010) and Kick-Ass 2 (2013).
Last year, Mark Millar announced that the Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl comic books were going to be revived in a new series of miniseries slash ongoing series. The first new six-issue miniseries, entitled Kick-Ass, is written by Mark Millar; drawn by John Romita, Jr. (pencils) and Peter Steigerwald (digital inks); colored by Steigerwald; and lettered by John Workman.
Kick-Ass #1 introduces Staff Sergeant Patience Lee, a combat veteran in the Afghanistan part of the “(Global) War on Terror.” When she returns to civilian life in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as a wife and mother, Patience discovers that her husband has left her and the children. Short on money and have to put her dreams on hold, SSG Lee decides that it is time to get paid. So she puts on a familiar costume...
Because the original Kick-Ass miniseries kept selling out, I originally read the story in its first hardcover collection. I loved it. Kick-Ass is so gloriously deranged, and it seems like the ultimate encapsulation of writer Mark Millar's oeuvre, at least to that point in time.
Kick-Ass 2018 is quieter. It also seems like more of a study of the post-Barack Obama America, with its resentful white middle class, its seething white working class, and its newly invigorated white supremacy slash white nationalist culture. It is an America in which the balance between the haves and have-nots is completely out of whack because the haves not only want more, they also want it all. They want it all and will have it all by any means necessary – legal, illegal, or otherwise. In this America, even black people are turning into the very people and turning to the very systems they have traditionally lambasted – most of which revolves around violence.
John Romita, Jr.'s illustrations, compositions, and graphical storytelling are as powerful as it ever is when put to use for an intense story. Let's be honest; drawing “real” superhero comic books are mostly a waste of JRJr's time, but Kick-Ass brings out the power, heft, and meatiness of his storytelling. Here, Romita's art is served by a really good colorist, Peter Steigerwald, and John Workman is one of the few comic book lettering heavyweights capable of placing his fonts inside the Romita, Jr. graphics package.
So Kick-Ass is back, as strong as ever.

Review: HIT-GIRL #1
HIT-GIRL No. 1 (2018)

STORY: Mark Millar
ART: Ricardo Lopez Ortiz
COLORS: Sunny Gho
LETTERS: Melina Mikulic
COVER: Amy Reeder

Hit-Girl created by Mark Miller and John Romita, Jr.
Hit-Girl is a comic book vigilante character created by Mark Miller and John Romita, Jr. She first appeared in the comic book series, Kick-Ass (2008) and is Mindy McCready, a 'tween girl trained from an early age by her late father to be a costumed superhero and assassin.
Hit-Girl appeared in all three initial Kick-Ass comic book miniseries and also appeared in her own five-issue miniseries, Hit-Girl (2012, Marvel Comics/Icon). Mark Millar announced last year that he was bringing Kick-Ass and Hit-Girl back in new miniseries. The new Hit-Girl is written by Millar, drawn by Ricardo Lopez Ortiz; colored by Sunny Gho; and lettered by Melina Mikulic.
Hit-Girl #1 opens in Palmire, Columbia, South America. We meet hit man Fabio Mendoza a.k.a. “Mano.” A member of “Perros de Guerra,” the notorious gang, Mano is on his way to prison where he will begin serving 10 life sentences. But Hit-Girl has what she thinks is a better deal for Mano. She is still trying to find a new Kick-Ass to replace the retired original, but has Hit-Girl chosen the right, right-hand-man replacement?
I am not crazy about the cover art for Hit-Girl #1, drawn by Amy Reeder. I really dislike the interior art by Ricardo Lopez Ortiz; my imagination does not want to read it. And it pales in comparison to the art of Hit-Girl's originator, John Romita, Jr. Millar's story does have some intriguing bits in this first issue... or maybe I'm just reaching.
But I love Hit-Girl, so I will make the best of this comic book. You never know what surprises Mark Millar will pull out of his writer's hat, and Ortiz's art might grow on me. And again, maybe I'm reaching...

Review: JIMMY'S BASTARDS #2
JIMMY'S BASTARDS No. 2
AFTERSHOCK COMICS – @AfterShockComix
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
WRITER: Garth Ennis
ARTIST: Russ Braun
COLORS: John Kalisz
LETTERS: Rob Steen
COVER: Dave Johnson
22pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (July 2017)
Mature Readers
Created by Garth Ennis and Russ Braun
“Ninety-Nine Percent”
Jimmy's Bastards is a new comic book series created by writer Garth Ennis and artist Russ Braun. Ennis is known for the seminal DC Comics/Vertigo title, Preacher, and for his work on such titles as The Punisher and his controversial creator-owned title, The Boys. Braun is known for his work on Vertigo titles like Fables, Fairest, and Jack of Fables. John Kalisz as colorist and Rob Steen as letterer are Ennis and Braun's collaborators on this series.
Jimmy's Bastards focuses on James “Jimmy” Regent, Great Britain's number one super-spy. He has all the intrigue and adventure he can handle, and he has a license to shoot whomever he likes. Jimmy has a veritable legion of beautiful and willing women, but his new partner, Nancy McEwan, isn't sold on his charms, though. Their is also a new threat mounting against Jimmy.
Jimmy's Bastards #2 (“Ninety-Nine Percent”) is enjoying a round of golf with Sir X of MI6 and not-so-much enjoying a round of golf with X's son, Rupert. Suddenly, there is an attack from Jerry Fokker's crew, but there is something strange about this racist group this time around. Nancy thinks there is a larger conspiracy. Maybe, they are both missing the big picture.
After reading the first issue, I thought that the central premise of Jimmy's Bastards was ripe with possibilities. However, I did not like Jimmy Regent the character, although I think that he is supposed to be a likable unlikable rogue. Still, he barely registered to me as a character, but he registers, now.
After reading Jimmy's Bastards #2, I find everything about this series more likable. I think that Jimmy and the conspirators who want to kill him are a lot of cads and clowns, but they will yield comedy gold. I expect Nancy McEwan to play the straight woman to this mess of idiots. Now, I am having fun reading this comic book and can't wait for the third issue.
I heartily recommend Jimmy's Bastards to Garth Ennis fans. I think that he is going to deliver his usual bucket of blood, and artist Russ Braun seems like the perfect artist (this time around) to bring that bucket to comic book life.

Review: SHORTCAKE CAKE Volume 1
SHORTCAKE CAKE, VOL. 1
VIZ MEDIA – @VIZMedia
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
MANGAKA: suu Morishita
TRANSLATION: Emi Louie-Nishikawa
LETTERING: Inori Fukuda Trant
EDITOR: Nancy Thislethwaite
ISBN: 978-1-9747-0061-5; paperback (August 2018); Rated “T” for “Teen”
176pp, B&W, $9.99 U.S., $12.99 CAN, £6.99 UK
Short Cake Cake is a shojo manga created by Suu Morishita (or “suu Morishita”). The manga began serialization in the Japanese manga magazine, Margaret, in 2015. VIZ Media is publishing the manga in a series of English-language graphic novels, entitled Shortcake Cake.
Shortcake Cake, Vol. 1 (Chapters 1 to 5) introduces Ten Serizawa, a freshmen at Nekochiya High School. In order to attend the high school, however, Ten has a two-hour commute through the mountains, both ways, every school day. Ten's friend, Ageha Haruno, suggests that she move into the boarding house where Ageha stays. If she does move in, Ten will have to contend with three high school boys who, to varying degrees, are attracted to her.
[This volume includes bonus manga and eight pages of cover and chapter-page illustrations.]
In the tradition of Honey So Sweet, the Shortcake Cake manga is a like a warm cup of cocoa. It does manage to be a bit off-beat as far as shojo high school romances go; the boarding house element is the reason.
Shortcake Cake Graphic Novel Volume 1 introduces a nice cast of six boarding house residents, all of high school age, and also the adult “house mom.” They are all good characters, and I like that there is a bit of tartness to Ten Serizawa. I found that each character is different from the other, and while they are familiar high school shojo types, they are interesting, maybe even a little intriguing. I enjoyed reading this first volume and look forward to the second volume. I think that Shortcake Cake will reveal a bit more edge in upcoming volumes.
