Review - Hellblazer #284

Hellblazer # 284 by Vertigo/DC Comics. Written by Peter Milligan. Drawn by Gael Bertrand. $2.99.

In this issue, the story line of John Constantine's coat continues as it becomes more and more sentient.

I have to admit this story has been rather good. I never would have thought that a story about his coat could interest me at all, but the writing on this is very well done. Also, we continue to see what is happening with Gemma, John's niece, the one that stole the coat and sold it on the Internet.

I was concerned for the title when I found out that DC decided to bring Constantine back into the "superhero" world, but it seems they now have two John Constantines. So as long as they keep him like the John we all know and love in the Vertigo title, they can do what they want in Justice League Dark.

I must note that the guest artist, Gael Bertrand, really did a good job. It constantly amazes me on the artists they get for this title, but amazes me more that many of them, the really good ones, you never see again drawing comics. I know it is a hard field to break into and stay working, but makes you wonder what happened to all these artists.

Review - Chopper #1

Chopper #1 by Asylum Press and Night Owl Productions. Written by Martin Shapiro. Drawn by Juan Ferreyra. $2.99.

Not sure if the comic is being done as a web series, or that the web series is being done as a comic, but one of these is the case for this comic on ChopperLives.com.

I was skeptical about his one, being as it is a type of new version of the headless horseman, but I have to admit it is a interesting take on it. Seems the "bad girl" daughter of a cop, sells drugs and has a personality disorder: IE town druggy and slut, lol. Some of the drugs she sells, unknown to her I'm sure, bring about a headless biker that, well, cuts of the victims heads at least in this issue.

The writing is decent and the artwork is really good as well. So for a starter issue that lays down the ground-work for the entire series, it did really well. Makes me want to check out the web site to see how Tyler Mane plays this biker killer.

Readers should check out this title if for no other reason than it is different, or if your a big fan of the Headless Horseman stories. Myself, I am curious to where this title is going and if it might turn into a full blown movie if it goes over well.
