Every
issue PopImage reviews the best complete works in comics, both
old and new.
It's a new year and a new look for PopImage, but here at Review
Towers it's business as usual. Alongside staple fare such as ASTRONAUTS
IN TROUBLE, PREACHER and GEN13, we also have
lesser-known works like JACK'S LUCK RUNS OUT and some new-fangled
thing called, erm, POKEMON. This month's Retro is the Pulitzer-winning
classic MAUS, and you'll find even more over in Industrial,
as part of this month's feature on Oni Press.
Finally, it seems everyone and their dog is starting
a new series in January. Discover which ones are worth your money
next month, when we give you the lowdown on as many as we can!
See you then,
