Solmon Kane & The Wizard Of Oz

Solomon Kane #1

Dark Horse comics once again brings to life Robert E. Howard's dark tales of fantasy and adventure. This time there is no barbarian, we now journey alongside a lone butt-kicking puritan, named Solomon Kane. 

I  liked this interpretation and look forward to DH continuing the tale of this anti-hero from the father of pulp fiction.

 The Wizard Of Oz #1


The trend in movies has always been take something great and tell it again in a new way. So now many comic book companies have taken that approach as well. The classic tale of The Wizard of Oz, has been retold by Marvel. I am a big fan of Baum and read this issue with a critical eye. 

Well, I loved what has been done thus far and look forward to seeing the rest. I think the art was edgy but also done in a classic way. I loved the fact they did not glaze over the book, but rather seem interested in telling it close to the original. This journey has just begun, keep you posted.
