    <body><![CDATA[It's hard for David Lapham to do anything wrong as long as he's writing and illustrating his own book. SILVERFISH is a bit of a triumph, a scary tale, gorgeously rendered, about a step-mother who's not what she seems, a psychotic killer getting to some unfinished business, and two sisters caught up ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4210700">more...</a>]]></body>

Not the gore of the scene, but just its effectiveness.  The story was engaging, but nothing mind blowing.

    <body><![CDATA[Interesting graphic novel. Not quite as good as Lapham's Stray Bullets series, but certainly good for a quick read if you're bored in Barnes and Nobel one day. Apparently the Jersey Shore is kinda depressing in the winter. Who knew?]]></body>
