Overdue Review – London Horror Comic #1 and 2
This is my last overdue review. I really hated that these reviews sat on my “desk” so long, I am hoping that my effort to finish them means something.
Anyway, here we go again.

I will start out by saying that I am not a big fan of horror comics, in fact,? I usually don’t even give them a second glance when I see them on the shelf.? This comic actually surprised me, the stories were good? and well thought out (though the last one I didn’t quite get).? A few of them had a funny side to them that was refreshing and I like how others tied back into comic book culture.? The art was good, thought maybe not my taste, but still well done.? Overall I really liked this issue and was glad that I gave it a shot.
London Horror Comic #2

First, I have to say that the cover on #2 was just a little disturbing.? Having that naked chic in the tub with that guy with the eyes all over him just made my brain all confused 
.? This issue surprised me too, the stories had just enough of a twist to make them interesting.? Once again the art was good, just not my style, which is just my opinion.? I know I can’t do any better, and I have certainly seen a lot worse in my time.? The one thing I didn’t like was the last story.? I didn’t find it very “horrifying” just damn cruel.
Overall, if you like the horror genre, then you will more than likely like these books.
When I went to the author’s website I discovered that he got hit by Diamond’s cut backs on minimum orders, so #3 would be the last issue of this series.? With that in mind, you will only be able to get #3 on his online store.? This series was different enough that I just might give that last issue a try when it comes out.
