Hello, Dark Horse Database..!
Hello, Dark Horse Database, this is Concernedalien11780. My first experience with the Dark Horse brand was being given a Shrek comic as a kid and noticing the Dark Horse logo for the first time ever. Somehow, I could tell that the comics were meant for adult fans of Shrek because it said "damn" once or twice, which, when you're seven, somewhat emotionally disabled, and raised by decently conservative parents, is one of the scariest things you can see. The first two Shrek movies were made for adults and kids, which is why they had some mild language and reasonably sophisticated humor, and Dark Horse was publishing comics more oriented for that audience than the youth audience of Shrek's. DreamWorks Animation was originally trying to be the …

Opening Remarks (Mostly ramblings): To be honest, I’d forgotten about this series as I’d seen a preview of it in Comic Shop News a while back but never could shake that disturbingly creepy cover. Two Wednesdays ago I saw it on the new rack section and, after flipping through it, added it to my ever increasing pile. However, for the first time in a long time I exercised some sort of financial discretion over my comic spending and asked Wayne, one of the awesome crew who’s been there for more than 15 years now, if he’d put all of my extra books in my “file” for next week (Nov 14). He gracefully did so and that was that. I read it today at work, after inwardly wincing, and probably outwardly too, at that cover again. I didn’t know what to exp…

Shameless Kickstarter Plug
- 1 Intro
- 2 How to
- 3 Wrap Up
- 4 Links
Yes, it's going to be that kind of blog, but please bear through it, dear readers. :) My good friend turned me on to kickstarter about two weeks ago and this was a financially fatal mistake for me. I've seen so many good-looking projects with tasty looking awards (didn't know books could look delicious, huh?). Every few days I just keep seeing awesome sounding and eye-catching ideas and I just wanna jump on board. However, just pledging a dollar, the minimum pledge amount, doesn't do it for me. I want to have some decent, physical goodies that I can read, re-read, show off to friends and the staff at the lcs, and file away for posterity. I love the feel of kickstarter-from how you can hear/see the creators' pleas…
