Final Crisis #3
DC Comics
Morrison and Jones

I was critical of the first issue. I warmed up to the second issue. And the third turned up the heat to the boiling point. If you haven't been reading this series, you must now. You have no choice. This may or may not be the "final" crisis, but it's turning into one monumental tale.

Black Jack Volume One
Vertical
Osamu Tezuka

I know very little about manga, except for the review copies that have been sent to me. Having said that, after reading a preview of Black Jack Volume One, I highly recommend it to novices such as myself. Will it appeal to those already versed in the ways of manga? I absolutely believe so!

Milt Caniff's Steve Canyon 1947
Checker Book Publishing Group
Milt Caniff

You will find no finer piece of literature in the world of comic strips or comic books than STEVE CANYON. Sadly, I started reading this strip in its waning years, as the Vietnam war was ending, and newspapers and readers starting turning away from what was a patriotic and military oriented story. However, we can recapture the magic of the strip's early years in this fine trade paperback series by Checker BPG.

ComicList Critiques by Charles LePage

Contract #1 and #2
A First Salvo
Madeiros,Shell, and a variety of artists

Despite what the cover of Contract #1 might lead you to believe, this is not a series about a well endowed woman who wears tight t shirts. It's actually a well written and drawn comic, probably closer to a good Image comic book than anything else I can think of.
