Union Jack the Ripper: Blood Hunt #1 REVIEW | Vampire Anarchy in the UK!
Hey,Gray! Please just do your picks! Going through DC and Marvel graveyard of garbage is really more like torture these daze! There are some good ones in there but they are mostly indie comics! Batman Off schedule uhhh world was originally a 7 issue miniseries and I guess is now 6? Of course JSA is the champion of mundane late books! Ohhh well? Zero Hour brings back fond memories of 1994 and was in my opinion a very underrated series! The history glossary in the back was on point ! Short fast event with some great 0 issues too! Green Arrow ,Tranformers 40th, Void Rivals, Popeye,Flash Gordon,Captain America 12& I gonna bat clean up my hold at the LCS! Finally picked up Hellboy HC collection of Richard Corben tales!âĄïžâ€ïžGhost Machine comicsđ
Looking forward to Nottingham.
To answer your question at the end: I can get General information anywhere.. league of comic geeks account, Google, etc. I come to this channel for whatever content you put out. If you're happy doing something, that's when this channel is at its best.
The Conan comics are two of my favourites titles now. I haven't read Detective in a whole, got bit fed up with it, that new X-Men book was OK. Didn't like the new X-Factor tho.
@@paulbowler5345 Conan, the Ghost Machine books, Millarworld and various indie titles are my current favourites.
this savage sword of conan cover . wtf is this?? windows paint graphics?
@@kudlatykid It's not the most inspiring cover art, no. The main Conan series has had some great covers.
JSA and Off world in the same week!? Check your Mayan calendar!! Also: nemesis Sacrificers Flash Gordon and Quarterly Last Mermaid - last in current cycle, have you checked this out? Also GL zero hour special
I have been waiting for a long time to see non Judge Dredd characters in this universe get stories. Maybe they have existed for some time, but I have been noticing them in the last several month for the first time.
I was so happy to see Garth writing Rogue Trooper. I hope he does more stories with other characters including Strontium Dog, Bad Company, etc.
i'm glade iron lade came back after his first apperince in young avengers
@@carterblake3410 Yes, it was good to see him in this issue.
@@WakizashisTeahouse yeah thank you marvel for bringing him back form the original young avengers
More hot tea from the Tiphouse. Ex-cellent! (rubs hands together Ă la Burns ... )
@@mikc666 Wishy-washy's Tiphouse. That could be the way to go.
I see dinosaur, I am interested đ
Nobody can resist those Greg Capullo dinosaurs!!
There's be another What if, with Minnie Mouse being Captain Marvel
Minnie Mouse would make a cool Captain Marvel!
Greg Capullo never disappoints! Thankfully Hickman is writing this too! Great review,Gray! Arigato!đŻđ
I'm looking forward to issue 2 where I think things will really take off.
đCorrection: The variant cover I show at the end is NOT by Takashi Yamazaki the director of Godzilla Minus One. It's by Takashi Okazaki, who is "a Japanese manga artist, visual designer and graphic designer, most notable for writing and illustrating the manga series Afro Samurai."
I thought it started iffy, like maybe this isn't something I'd like, but then it got real good. Really make me think of Enemy of the State.
Enemy of the State is a good comparison. I enjoyed it more on my second read through, especially the second half of the issue.
@@WakizashisTeahouse The opening pages threw me off, because Wolverine and Fury sounded out of character. The art on Cap didn't look good, but that's a non issue, hahaha. Once the premise got explained and the story started moving, everything got better.
Great review man
Cheers Tevya! It's definitely worth checking out.
@@WakizashisTeahouse indeed :)
I too like the variant cover no-2 much better than the first cover drawn by Capullo,the anatomy of Wolverine isn't good,at all. LOL. But,the interior art-work is very-GOOD-me likee. I didn't like Greg Capullo's art on the Spawn titles,but,his art on this Wolverine issue I like a lot. And I'm enjoying your channel,keep-up the-GOOD-work.
Thanks for your comment. I'm happy to hear you like the interior art by Capullo. I enjoyed his work on Gunslinger Spawn, so it's nice to see him take on these Marvel characters.
@@WakizashisTeahouse You're welcome.
I really enjoyed this đ„
Glad to hear you enjoyed it đ
My faves from last week 8/14/2021: Geiger #5, THis week 8/21/2024: Im looking out for: Redcoat #5, Get Fury #4., NIght Club 2 #1,
@@johnwalsh4857 All good choices. And yes, Geiger #5 was great last week! Ghost Machine is looking very good so far.
Keep those beautiful brains in your head
@@zaxx It's too late!
Intrigued by Huge Detective 1 and Yor: The Hunter from the Future 1.
Yor: The Hunter from the Future looks pretty interesting. Thanks for the tip.
conan is not fighting red sonja on the cover. she is daughter of frost
@@kudlatykid Thanks for the correction đ
Great list! Only one missing from mine is Local Man. Its good to have a week where thereâs lots of books to debate which youâre reading first (Iâm probably Redcoat then Worlds Finest!)
Thanks. I need to catch up on Local Man. Hmm... which book to read first? That's a good question. I'll probably read Get Fury first.
Gray, read Fables you posh pariah!
You need to read the Invisibles mate
I've been debating about getting into rat city. I'll take this as a sign, I guess đ
@@ashhhhhhhhhhhhhhh It's not amazing or anything, just solid but I like the futuristic setting.
I loved reloaded this issue though is drifting very heavily into the batman like territory which isn't a good thing.
It's going to be interesting to see how the sidekick theme plays out. Will it be Nemesis's downfall?
random thought, but i really miss when you used to shout WAKIZASHIS's!!!!!! teahouse at the intro
@@dolev2945 No way! That takes me back. I was worried that it was annoying so I stopped doing it đ
This was interesting I didn't know about union jack but I'm trying to catch up on everything related to blood hunt itself so these reviews are very helpful đ
@@parsapouyafar1047 Thanks for your generous comment! I'm glad my review was useful. Union Jack is a cool character.
Hello Gray, finally, did you continue Spurrier's run on The Flash? Did you manage to enjoy the story and to go passed the #1 issue? Thanks for your reply. Cheers from Belgium. David
Hello David. Thanks for your comment. I read it up to issue 6 and then stopped. The story lost me. Are you still reading it? What do you think of Spurrier's take on the character?
@@WakizashisTeahouse Actually, I don't know anything about The Flash but I was so blown away by the art that I considered reading it. But sadly, the general opinion is that the story is bad and the artwork confusing. If a generous reader and curious mind like you dropped the book, I think I won't start this run at all. I'm much more excited about the Transformers and Conan. Thanks & see you on the channel. Cheers.
@@Dems-fk8sh Transformers and Conan are two of the best current comic books in my opinion. Great choices!
It's the most enjoyable American comic I've read since years, and the art is super cool, perfect fit for this story. I mostly loved the shots in the arcade machines in the third issue. Reminded me of my youth.
Great to hear you are enjoying it so much! I still need to read issue 3 which I'm looking forward to after your comment. Thanks
Member of the watch to the end club here. Love the comic reviews!
@@Americantexan Hey I appreciate that, thank you! đ
They need to make more of this comics.
The next issue: MARVEL & DISNEY: WHAT IF� DONALD DUCK BECAME THOR is being released in September. It looks fun!
Cheers to you, Zaxx! đ»
great review man
Thank you Tevya. Did you read it?
@@WakizashisTeahouse your welcome man and unfortunately no not yet
Nemesis looks like Micheal keatons batman
Yes, I can totally see that. Those eyes!
This issue was a straight up up jackhammer! Millar sold me on wanting to learn more about this character and his previous volumes. Well done review as always homie!
Cheers Nick! I really like the way he showed how to give a "perfect" character real stakes. And as you say, Millar has made me want to ead the previous Prodigy volumes. Great comic!
Uh oh Eric July is gonna be mad at this!
Why?
@@WakizashisTeahouse cause only his comics can have black super heroes!
@@nosferatuthevampyre That's waysist!
I enjoyed this and have the Thor one on pre-order. It was just a fun comic spoof of the Old Man Logan story but with Disney characters and fun callbacks to Wolverine's publication history. I'd love to see Marvel do more of these. I know they did those variant covers for Disney 100 but I'd like to see actual stories haha
Old Man Donald! It was good fun and I'm looking forward to the Thor issue as well. I wonder how well these comics will sell. If they do good numbers, Marvel will probably make more.
@@WakizashisTeahouse I hope so cause I love these mash-ups. I mostly buy my comics digitally but I might have to track down a physical copy as well haha
Lots of love from tamilnadu
Hey there! Thanks so much for your comment!đđ
@@WakizashisTeahouse đ
Music and comic book review! đŻđâĄïžđâ€ïž Buddy really comes into his own over the course of 15 issues compared to his handful of appearances since the late sixties through the mid eighties! The animal rights stuff didnât bother me, Grant obviously did his homework and he didnât hit you over the head with lame needy activism again and again! Both Animal Man & Doom Patrol were absolutely on the top of my reading list! I love surreal stuff especially with some imagination tossed in! The next issue with the Time Commander is one of my favorites! DC limbo â€ïž! Grant really was ahead of the curve!âĄïž
That was so much fun at the beginning when we were talking MADchester! Remember that tagline, Dwayne? I always loved both Animal Man and Doom Patrol. Animal Man felt more mainstream than DP, but they were both pretty daring and almost experimental at the time. It was a wonderful time to be reading comics!
@@WakizashisTeahouse I was on Animal Man till issue 60! Buddy also had a walk in cameo in Morrisonâs JLA letting everyone whoâd listen that the animals were telling him about the end of the world! Currently DC&MARVEL new stuff is tanking but at the least we have a great plethora of 80+years of comics to go through! đŻâĄïžđđ€đ
Donald Duck is my favorite cartoon character of all time so I was ecstatic when I read he was going to be Wolverine (and Thor soon). It was a fun story and I really hope this trend continues. Giving it a B-. Like the Infinity Dime Story, I loved how Donald was used almost as a Deus Es Machina figure because of his temper. I liked the flashbacks where it showed him in all Wolverine Costumes and the Weapon X. But like the Infinity Dime Story, I felt like this story was a little too rushed. P.S. I watched this video from beginning to end.
Those flashback scenes were great. I had fun with this story although it could've been better. Thanks so much for watching to the end!
Gray is so much more than a Japanese AI!
@@EricOSullivan I love you too, Eric
