Books 38-39

38) Air volume 1 - Letters from Lost Countries: This new Vertigo series written by G Willow Wilson and drawn by M.K. Perker looks like it has a lot of potential. The art is well done and evocative, the writing is nicely handled and the plot seems suitably multi-layered and twisty, though the big reveal at the end of book 1 is more concrete than I'd like in a book with such an ambiguious title. I'm hoping this will fill the hole in my comics buying made by the ending of both Y: The Last Man and Fables. We'll see if it holds up.

39) Jack of Fables - Turning Pages: Bill Willingham's spin off book from Fables, I  wonder why I keep buying this. It's not as funny as it tries to be, and the main plot - the existance of evil forces like Mr. Revise and Mr. Bookburner who are trying to either suborn or destroy all of the Fables that arose from American myth - is just compelling enough to keep me reading, but only just. I figure I'll give this book one more collection before I drop it.
