Godland

So little money, so many comics!

Godland is my newest "late to the party" by years find. Man, this is some awesome. Joe Casy and Tom Scioli writing and drawing respectively. Amazing, Kirby-esque cosmic comic crazyness! I rate it a must-read!

Seriously, this is one of the better books I have found. I managed to snag the first 11 issues for a song. What issue is this up to? I am really loving it and want more! Has anyone else read this? If not, I think the first issue is available on Newsarama or somewheres, totally free in a totally legal manner.

Basil is hilariously awesome.

    well, a little research (read: going to Image's website) says that Issue #13 came out/comes out this month

    i know, it's hard

    you might have run into some mainstream comics on the way there

    Dearest Keith,

    Thanks for your trademarked method of being helpful and being an asshole at the same time. I hope your next meal is delicious. I hope you choke on it, or maybe get a nasty case of the runs afterwards.

    Man-hugs,
    Douglas D.

    Full issue 1: http://www.newsarama.com/Image/Godland/issue01/Godland01Pre.htm

    Someone sent me the first issue when I bought a bunch of 2000AD Showcase issues. I didn't read it because it didn't look very exciting. I didn't read it digitally, from that link, either.

    I still don't want to read it.

    Maybe one day.

    This is one of those series that is constantly on my radar, but I can never quite rationalize buying it in favor of one of the hundred trades and assorted miscellaneous crap I need. Like, I can go into the comic shop with every intention of leaving with some Godland, but I inevitably emerge with Scott Pilgrim, or Jack Staff or something instead.

    Munch, my good man.

    Listen to me.

    Get it.

    It is so deliciously good.

    I would post panels or pages, but I would eventually wind up posting everything!

    I've got the first six issues, and while the art is pretty rad, I just found something lacking. I dunno. Godland is technically solid, I just couldn't get into it.

    Scioli is awesome. I would buy it for him alone. Casey is putting enough superhero crack to page for me to keep reading for that too, but I would totally buy it the co-creator was some idiot. I really need to get ahold of that Freedom Force comic Scioli drew a couple of years ago.

    I got to talk to Joe for a bit on preview night at Comic-Con. Really nice guy. He signed my Godland vol 1 trade that I bought from him and even did a doodle for me (smiley face)
