Comic Afterthoughts The Pull List (9/18/13): Debuts amid chaos
Posted By Andy Smith on Wed, Sep 18, 2013 at 1:00 PM
Amid the chaos of Villains Month, Infinity and Battle of the Atom, a few series from Dark Horse and Image debut this week.
Back in July, Comic Afterthoughts mentioned Buzzkill, a new series from Donny Cates and Toadies drummer Mark Reznicek. A superhero's alcoholism fuels his powers, but quite predictably, problems arise from the combination. His attempt to quit creates even more trouble. The comic features art by Geoff Shaw.
Zero #1, from Image Comics, continues the company's reign over the nonsuperhero market. The spy/sci-fi tale concerns an agent named Edward Zero, who pursues a stolen object implanted inside a terrorist. Scribe Ales Kot's recent Suicide Squad run showed promise, and this series is certainly worth a shot on those issues alone.
Dark Horse's Kiss Me Satan #1 is part of Dark Horse's new horror line, combining the elements of monster movies and crime tales. With werewolf mafias and witches, the story is the kind that makes you wonder why this kind of mash-up doesn't happen more often. Victor Gischler and Juan Ferreyra are the team responsible for the miniseries.
Now, let's check out what else comes out this week.
