I am a film noir and an H.P. Lovecraft Cthulhu horror fan. This TPB, the first in a series, nicely combines both genres. The story teems with characters you would find in a good film noir - crooked cops, nosy journalists, murders and, of course, the femme fatale, in this case, the lovely, intoxicating and mysterious Josephine, who hides secrets and is not the woman the helpless men who fall under her spell think she is. A cult of villains with a twist of Lovecraftian horror completes the setting.

Brubaker has woven an excellent tale, effectively interweaving modern days with flashbacks to the past, providing a gallery of characters and events that provide the structure that set the events in motion. Phillips' art perfectly captures the faces, fashion and action that abound in film noir. You can almost feel the grime of the dark underworld of the city. As you can tell, I was very favorably impressed and, if you're a fan of the genres as I am, I highly recommend this story. You won't regret it. I am looking forward to reading the remainder of the series. I am already under Josephine's spell. :)

This TP collects all three Hyperthick comics. It combines circa 1940s comic imagery with literary, historical and whimsical references and dialog, albeit with a twist. However, it is very clever and amusing. If you're comfortable with non-linear stories, zany dialog and imagery, and can open your mind to something completely different, you will enjoy it. If you're familiar with Steve Aylett's writing, then you'll have an idea of what to expect.

I highly recommend Curator of Comics. I received my first order today. All items arrived in pristine condition. The double layer of bubble wrap, the paper frame around the items, the inner cardboard layer taped to the bubble wrap, the outside cardboard layer and, last but not least, the “fragile” stickers on top and bottom of package all served to protect the contents. Having received damaged items from other websites in the past, this was a welcome change. The order arrived sooner than expected and even included some freebies and a note from Daphne. I’m very pleased with Curator and will certainly be back for more. Now - all I need to do is sit down and read through my haul!

The quality of the book is absolutely amazing. From the gorgeous cover art to the interior work. You won’t regret picking this one up.
