A meaner nastier Excalibur....meet Lightning Force
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2008-03-24
While issue 8 seemed a little like filler, 9 &10 jump right back into the strong storylines, and do so with a vengance. The opening panels, revealing the presence of Nazified alternates of Excalibur, set the stage for a conflict lasting through the end of issue 11, and leading directly into the Cross-Time Caper. Widget and his dimension switching abilities is strongly featured, as is W.H.O. (Wierd Happenings Organization), and Sat-yr9 as Courtney Ross, but the alternate Excalibur team know as Lightning Force really steals the show. They are remarkable in concept and the artwork to bring that out is excellent. Issue 10 again has a guest artist, and loses a little bit, but not much, artistically.

Timebroker or Timebreaker?
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 5 total.
Review Date: 2005-08-22
-Exiles- ramps up The Age of Apcalypse w/a chilling story abouut the Timebroker demanding that the Exiles kill Mimic - & Clarice [Blink], of course, refuses. So he punishes them by sending the not-so-merry group to Apocalypse's Age, removing Heather Hudson [Sasquatch] & Barnell Bohunk [Beak], & giving the Exiles a new member: Holocaust!

Suddenly, Namora's decision to defy the Timebroker doesn't seem so bad...

This graphic novel covers Exiles # 69 -74.

I just finished reading this graphic novel, and I don't want to give away story plots. But this one had a great adversary, interesting reality and a new added twist to the ever loving reality bending storylines. I really enjoy this series because it stays correct to it's stories continuity and the characters keep things true and believable. The story in this one is a sad one. Enjoy it, I know I did. :)

Tragedy and triumph in one package!
Helpful Votes: 6 out of 7 total.
Review Date: 2004-03-16
This collects issues 31-37 of Exiles, and it covers some great moments for the team. First off, they face a world where the Avengers are all vampires (as a result of Captain America losing to Baron Blood in an earlier battle in his own comic). Their only hope it to enlist the aid of Union Jack, but he doesn't want to get involved!

Next we go to two issues where the leaps go wrong for some reason. Sasquatch and Morph end up facing a crazed Weapon X in the Canadian wilderness. This is a good story because it gives emotional depth to Heather and gives her backstory. It's surprising. Meanwhile, Nocturne and Sunfire end up back on the Legacy Virus world. This is a pretty uneventful story, and definitely drags down the pace of the book. Coming dead center of the whole thing, it's unfortunate.

Finally, we end the book with a three-issue arc involving the birth of the Fantastic Four--except this time Ben Grimm isn't normal from the change! For two issues, they go after him to save New York, and just when things settle down, the final issue of the book finds them facing one of their own! This is the strongest issue to come from the series in a while, and before it's all over, one member will be dead and a familiar face will join the team.

All in all, this is a good collection. The art is good, and the characters are developed well. The only complaint I can give is to the Sunfire story in the middle that is a rather boring attempt to give the character a life. The beginning and end of the book are great though, so don't let the lag stop you from purchasing it.

A fresh insight to a key concept for raising children. As a new parent, I view the book as a valuable and stress releiving tool with which to approach parenting.

Just when Mulder thought he had the answer, it slipped out of his hands! Are ATM's and other electronic devices killing people? Or is it just a bunch of crazy people? How much crazy people are there in a town where a car accident is big news? Small town big case. Mulder and Scully are confused at this weird case, but, of course, does Mulder know the meaning of weird?

A Field Guide to the Heavens is a much anticipated third book of poetry by this gifted craftsman. And the wait yielded a maturity that is astonishing.

Gaspar's grasp on his place, in relation to his environment and to the universe as a whole, is the play we're invited to join. I suggest this book be read at one sitting in order to appreciate the fullness of its reach.

Poems of extaordinary merit include: Metropolis, I Work Late at My Table in Summer, July in the Street of Fevers, The Lemons, A Spell Against Ruins,

and especially,

Psalms in August.

There are far too many to mention here. This is a pure, honest book of poems that delight both the soul and the tongue.
