Northlanders #36

Northlanders is a series that flies beneath most peoples' radars but I jumped on for this current arc and it is a great read.  The interior art by Becky Cloonan is beautiful and issue 36 is backed up by a great cover from Massimo Carnevale.

I'll be reading Northlanders in trade from the beginning now, but I'm sure more single issue covers will show up on this blog in the future judging by what I have seen thus far.

Lazy Sunday #4: Surplus Cover Roundup

Well, aren't you in for a treat?  This Lazy Sunday post is going to round up all of the covers that I couldn't show you that I wanted to from earlier this month.  There just aren't enough days in a week to give everything it's own post so what better way to show you these than in a bumper Sunday post every now and then?  I know, I know, I'm just too good to you all.

So, sit back, relax and enjoy, starting with Sparta USA #1 and continuing with a whole massive bunch of other covers after the jump.

Sparta USA #1 - DC
Artist: David Lapham

As I said, plenty more overflow goodness for you... RIGHT NOW!

Joe The Barbarian #3

Yet another beautiful Joe the Barbarian cover from Sean Murphy.  This cover really grabs you and makes you want to see what the comic is all about.  The pirates, the futuristic ship/submarine, the over-sized pet rat in his battle-wear... surely if you're not reading this you want to now?

Check out the cover of Joe the Barbarian #2 which I featured last month - it is a lot less dark, but no less spectacular.

Joe The Barbarian #2

Grant Morrison's new Vertigo 8 part series Joe The Barbarian kicked off last month for thunderous critical applause and issue 2 seems to be garnering hefty praise too.  Here is the cover:

Sean, Grant - keep up the good work.
