Black Summer

Kind of fun. Not super original, but Ellis does a good job making us care about the characters in not a lot of time so that it means something when the dying starts. Something a bit sub-Watchmen about it all, really, although I like the names - "Tom Noir," "John Horus," etc., and the killin' George Bush angle. Art is bog-standard retro-90s with a mildly exploitative feel. ( )
