Voodoo 1 (November 2011)

I’m sure I’ll regret making this statement… but I likeVoodoo.

I generally use Ron Marz as a punchline whenever I can, but he writes some decent dialogue this issue. He understands how to have people go back and forth, how to bring out the exposition naturally, how to imply things.

It doesn’t hurt he’s got a nice cutaway with a federal agent beating up some dumb kids and then a good reveal at the end.

The book also has a major cheesecake factor, which Sami Basri’s art plays into. But—while the cheesecake keeps up—Marz does treat it as realistically as one would imagine a DC comic would get in the seedy strip club scene.

Actually, it seems like Marz has done a lot of research into the goings on at….

See, punchline, even when I’m being complementary.

It’s a complete Species rip-off but it’s finely executed.

  1. Yeah, DC’s rendition of a strip club is very unrealistic in my opinion. I worked at one for a couple of years, and I never saw as many good looking women as that one had.

    Maybe I just worked at the wrong club.
