And Templesmith did the cover to a book I co-edited and wrote a story for: Image Comics' POPGUN 4 - http://www.popguncomics.com. Yeah, I can't help myself from pimping. I need to get the new Wormwood trade. That stuff is awesome. He also has a new book called CHOKER coming out that I need to snag. Oh, and Doctor Who... I'm obsessed with it. I'll try to check out that issue of THE BOYS! If money flowed as I'd like it, I would've been collecting that series from the beginning! WORMWOOD is GREAT!

Funny and heartbreaking, and the cover of the book will haunt you afterward. Here's the review from iFanboy: ifanboy.com/reviews/Neb/comics/boys/21 I also noticed you mention both Dr Who and Ben Templesmith. If you haven't already, you really should check out WORMWOOD GENTLEMAN CORPSE (penned and drawn by Mr Templesmith). It's an experience. :) When I recommend a single issue of THE BOYS to experienced comics readers, I typically recommend #21.
