Comix Pix: Fear Agent

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Another series I have started reading thanks to the suggestion of Brendan from FatJacks, is Darkhorse’s Fear Agent. Part Buck Rogers, part Tank Girl, this series places humanity in the cross-fire between warring aliens with BSG-type scenarios to follow. Our hero is Heath Huston, a drunker, Texan version of Han Solo. Fear Agent mixes noir, time travel, sexual politics and stunning art. It’s fun to read, suspensful and has solid character development. Highly Reccommended.

“no evil shall escape my sight, let those who worship evil’s might, beware my power…Green Lantern’s light!” Yes, I am on a Green Lantern bender these days. I wanted to read a solid super-hero adventure with actual character development along with action. Nostalgia wrapped with a meta-wink to me, the lifelong comix reader. Geoff John’s reboot of the intergalactic policeforce that embodies willpower is just the totem I need these days. I highly reccomend the TPBs of this new and improved Green Lantern. No really:)
