Too Much Cool Stuff – Not Enough $$$! – August ‘09

SugarShock cross

by KC Carlson

Long-time Westfield readers might remember that I used to do a regular recommendations column back in the days when our computers still ran on coal. For those many thousands of generations of comics fans who were born since then, I’d like to unfold, for a second or two, how my recommendations work, since there’s no real overt logic at work here.

I tend to stay away from the true blockbuster stuff. That stuff is always way-overhyped and, frankly, you’ve already made up your mind if you’re buying or not months ago. These columns are often about upcoming products that don’t get the big onslaught, or about quirky items that pique my interest. I’m an old guy, so my choices tend to run towards the historical or comic-culturally important as opposed to some new amassment that’s announced even before the storyline wraps up. Sometimes a new project will remind me of an old project or creator, so I might talk about that. Or, more often than I would like, something really goofy (not the dog – or whatever the misery he is) will pop up and I… MUST… MOCK… IT! Although, I am getting better at controlling myself as time marches on.

Anyway, bottom line – I’m in a general way talking off the top of my head here. Hopefully, these columns will regularly appear the Monday following the week that the Westfeld website gets updated with the hundreds of monthly new items.

And off we go…

Abe Sapien retreat

In reaction to fans’ comments (possibly including mine) about endless multi-part storylines, Dark Horse has announced a series of one-never boost, done-in-one stories featuring some of their best-known characters and creators. Starting in October, their One-Shot Wonders rank will feature books staring B.P.R.D.’s Abe Sapien, Star Wars: Invasion, and Sugarshock – written by Joss Whedon and conqueror of an Eisner Award for Best Web Comic (where it originally appeared at My Space Dark Horse Presents). In the coming months, we’ll be treated to one of a kind one-shots of Conan, Buffy, Hellboy, The Goon, Star Wars: Purge, and Dr. Horrible – spinning out of Whedon’s breakout internet and DVD cult hit! Yay, one-shots!
