Get yer free Ghost Dick!
You read that right. I mean, you read the words correctly, but the meaning is probably kinda goofed up.
I wrote a very short, very dumb little book called Ghost Dick: Private Eye. With a title like that, would you have it any way other than dumb?
It's free for Kindle for five days starting May 17th, 2018. Grab a copy. Tell your friends to grab one. Grab it by the ass and never let go! Read more of this blog post »

| I don't dig vampires. I just don't. I don't find them terribly interesting. They're done to (un)death. There aren't a lot of places for the vampire narrative to go. It's been done. Same thing applies to a lot of fiction, true, and there are a lot of ...more | |

I'd like to nominate this for great first lines of all time: "I never should have married a woman named Decapitron." Truer words are rarely spoken. Maybe my favorite Mellick. Which is saying something. I haven't read ALL of him, although I've ...more |

| While there were some interesting insights into the development of Shovel Knight, and while Craddock's writing is clear and to-the-point, this just isn't a terribly compelling story. Shovel Knight's development plays out pretty much like you'd ...more | |

This was fun, although I think my thirst for Big Trouble in Little China was satisfied by Big Trouble in Little China. But when Eric Powell is on a book, so is Pete. If you're the kind of person who loved the movie and when you love something, you ...more |

The art is gorgeous in spots, and I think the ideas here are very solid. But I don't think I would really understand what's going on here if I hadn't seen the movie first. Things are space-y and loose in a lot of places. There's also an aspect of this ...more |

Love me some Chippy, but this volume is SO SHORT! It's as thick as about two issues glued together, maybe while sitting under my fat ass for a couple weeks just to get it as wafer-y as possible. And the hell of it is, the story hits a high point ...more |

This had nice little character moments here and there, but it had the problems most crossovers have: 1. There Are Weird Properties That Need Promo Some of the characters made sense, but others only seem to be there because there's a Netflix or a Hulu ...more |
