Saint, Super Mutants and One Punch Men: The Best Comics of 2015

January 6, 2016 By LoserCityBoss Leave a Comment

Best Comics of 2015

2015 was a crazy year for comics, but it was also a year of creative explosions, with the small press and digital comics spheres in particular showing off incredible material. Most of our favorite comics this year came from creators working outside the confines of the mainstream industry, with boutique presses like Nobrow and Youth […]

Anatomy of a Page: Wolf #1 Page 26 by Matt Taylor, Ales Kot and Lee Loughridge

July 29, 2015 By LoserCityBoss Leave a Comment

Wolf Matt Taylor Ales Kot Image Comics

Comics are a visual medium, but so often criticism of the medium hinges on narrative, ignoring or minimizing the visual storytelling and unique structures that make comics so different from cinema and photography. We’ve decided to change that up with a feature that we’re calling Anatomy of a Page, in which we explore pages and […]

Putting Out Fire with Gasoline: Wolf #1 is LA Noir with a Bite

July 23, 2015 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Wolf Matt Taylor Ales Kot Image Comics

Do you think fire stands out to humanity as an immortal symbol because of its danger? Or is it because of its utilitarian purpose? We fear fire but it also guides us, warms us, destroys forever anything we feed to it. Fire is fleeting but its destruction is permanent, a sure way to erase an object […]

Material Will Tempest Ales Kot

As high schoolers, my friends and I used to play this game. The way the game worked was that one of us would message a different friend, someone who wasn’t clued into the game, and emulate a chatterbot, testing how long it took for the other person to catch on that we were in fact […]

The Surface Ales Kot Langdon Foss

The Surface #1 Written by Ales Kot Drawn by Langdon Foss Colored by Jordie Bellaire Designed by Tom Muller Lettered by Clayton Cowles Published by Image Comics The thing about Ales Kot, comics’ current game changing hip priest, is that he’s both cynical and hopeful.
