Chronicles Of Wormwood made me an instant Garth Ennis fan and I’ve enjoyed everything of his I’ve read since. Oh, he’s obviously one sick little puppy but his writing’s good and that means so much. There’s so much mediocrity out there! So much bland nonsense masquerading as cool, hip, fresh, whatever. Who cares? Corporations, that’s who. And they’re counting on your dollars!

1899 must have been a crazy year. Protagonist John Dunn was kind of a crazy guy. But totally solid. Yo More...

Streets of Glory is a perfectly serviceable End of the Old West story. Ennis gives us a grizzled but honorable old man, a fresh young kid, a savage Indian, an ill-fated love and the requisite railroad looming over a small town on the prairie. You can see how it's all going to play out before the story is over. That's the problem with Westerns - we all know that the Old West has gone the way of boom towns and the Pony Express.

A good graphic novel by Garth Ennis, but not great. It felt like I was reading the b-side to the Saint of Killers story from Ennis' Preacher series. American western story, very gorey. He doesn't expand his writing territory or try anything new in this series. Not that this isn't enjoyable - it's good, just not NEW for Ennis.

What we have here is a case of Garth Ennis getting cranked on Guiness, reading passages from Lonesone Dove, watching the end of Unforgiven and Deadwood season 3 and then shitting out a half-assed comic book script, which Avatar then handed over to one of their 'house' artists who all draw exactly the same. All that said, there ARE some good parts, but Christ is it coming more and more clear that Garth shot his wad on Preacher and Hitman. How do you take the concept of a grizzled Civil War vet cl More...

Pretty damn good end-of-old-west-western Ennis put together. Bloody and tragic. Nice one.
But the art again is the weak point. So stiff.
