Crawling Sky #1 – Review



Issue: Crawling Sky #1
Writer: Joe R. Lansdale, Keith Lansdale
Artist: Brian Denham
Publisher: Antarctic Press
Release Date: January 2013

“Horror novel legends Joe R. Lansdale and Keith Lansdale team up with Brian Denham (X-Files, Zombie Kid Diaries) and Antarctic Press to bring you a tale o’ terror set in the wild, weird West! When his dad accidentally commits murder, plug-ugly Norville had to flee with him to Texas to start a new life. Near the town of Wood Tick, Norville gets himself a bride, and they find a homestead, good as new but abandoned. The only problem is the well, which is blocked by big, white stones. One by one, he unblocks the well, unaware he’s slowly setting free something old and dark and evil…”

Dying Breath: 5.0 out of 5
Yes! The day has finally come when I get to lay my hand of this highly anticipated comic. For months I have patiently been waiting for this issue to come out, and it did not disappoint. The artwork by Denham is GOREgeous! These black and whites just shine on every page. On the few pages with no wording, his work just delivers everything the reader will need. I simply can not put enough praise into these words to explain how amazing the visuals are in this book. The story by the Lansdale’s is right on par with the artwork. In this issue they deliver this fantastic introduction to the cast, as well as create a suspenseful monster that has yet to be seen. I loved where this issue went, and can not wait to see where it is going. I’m not big on horror western comics, but when it is as perfectly as this, I am on board. The long wait for this to come out is finally over and it was worth it. Throw on your boots, get on your horse and get yer britches into your comic shop for this awesome first issue!

Artwork: 5.0 out of 5 • Story: 5.0 out of 5

A LENORE CHARACTER WILL DIE!

Lenore creator Roman Dirge reveals a character will die in a terrifyingly hilarious new story! Who will it be? Who will survive… and what will be left of them? The four-part saga kicks off in March 2013!
Following this year’s unforgettable 20th anniversary celebrations, Titan Comics is pleased to announce four brand-new Lenore releases for 2013! Beginning March 28, 2013, the new storyline will see creator Roman Dirge murderize a key Lenore character from the cult comic series!
That’s right… one of these lovably undead monstrosities is taking a powder-nap, a vacation from existence, a sub-soil retirement, a journey into the void… Well, you get the grimly picture.
The new four-part story kicks-off in Lenore #8 and marks the beginning of the end for one of Lenore’s main characters; with a fight-to-the-death between two of the comic’s most beloved characters, but who will stand victorious and who will die…?
When a film crew from "Ghosty Toasty" TV show: “Where we toast that ghost!" turns up at Lenore's mansion in search of 'ghosts and ghouls' they get more than they bargained for: much, much more!

The new storyline will also reveal the shocking truth behind the mask of Taxidermy (Lenore’s most mysterious and sinister character) including his incredible history, which started back in the days of ancient Egypt.

“There will be an insane battle. I have already started designing the town of Nevermore, just so they can destroy it!” Creator Roman Dirge says.
 
Lenore #8 comes with two collectable covers drawn by Dirge! Retailers can order Lenore #8 from the February 2013 edition of Diamond PREVIEWS. For updates retailers can sign-up to the Titan Comics retail newsletter, here or follow @TitanRetail on Twitter.

Lenore #8 is available from comic stores on March 28, 2013. The series will also be available to read day and date on the iPad, iPhone, Web, Android and Kindle Fire, exclusively through the comiXology app and comiXology.com
