Manhattan Projects #1 0
The Good:The concept is really good. It is a interesting take on historic events. There is a very strong sense of... oddness? in this book. There is a very cool battle that takes place during this book and the story seems like it will continue to be very interesting. The art is also very interesting. Not necessarily great, but pretty good.The Bad:I really do not like what they are doing with the main character. I don't necessarily see why a main character is necessary in this book except for jus...

What just happened? 0
Art: A very playful and bold art style has been chosen for The Manhattan Projects and it is quite an ironic choice taking into account the very serious and significant subject matter of the book. However it works very well. The detailed and gritty line work is complimented with bright and bold colours. It's an odd mix but this is is no ordinary story. The General is the stereotypical bold and towering man with a grenade latched to his collar and a large pistol strapped over his chest. Extravagan...

Exciting Start to a Left of Center "Historical" Fiction Tale! 0
I hadn't planned on picking up this book ahead of time, until I noticed the creative team behind it. I became acquainted with Hickman and Pitarra via their previous book The Red Wing. A miniseries which I thoroughly enjoyed but I thought was flawed based on its short run. With Manhattan Projects being an ongoing, I hope to see Hickman and Pitarra's complex scientific and philosophical (Sci-Phi?) ideas have room to stretch and grow.I'll be honest, conceptually, the "secret history of the Manhatta...

Comic Review -- Manhattan Projects #1: Infinite Oppenheimers / Jo 0
Originally posted on my blog, The Comics Cove, not too long ago...In many ways, the Manhattan Project represented a very surreal time, where America worked to maintain its dominance by making sure it was able to build the weapon of the day's nightmares, the atomic bomb. The results and fallout of that undertaking (pun partially intended) make it easy to suppose that WMDs weren't the only sinister thing the U.S. could have been working on, and that a whole gamut of mind-bending and potentially ho...

Az elmeséletlen sztori 0
A Manhattan Projects ötlete egy egészen apró ötleten alapul, még is hatalmas dolgokat hoz ki belőle. A világ legnagyobb elméi összeülnek, kifejleszteni az atombombát, de mi van, ha ez csak egy jó fedősztori?A jóMár rögtön a borító: imádom ezt a minimalista vonalat, ami a címoldalon is végig vonul, szép és igen jól kitalált. Nagyon érdekes a sztori, nagyon jó a felvezetés és igen jól kidolgozott karaktereket kapunk. Nagyon jó felütése lett, egy igen ígéretes sztorinak.A rosszA borítóval ellentétb...

Hmmm. 0
I have just started getting into comic books on my own three months ago, so my knowledge of their history and all the different artists and writers in this world is very slim. After checking out a few series from some of the main publishers(DC, IDW, Image, SLG, and Vertigo), Image has had the most impressive story telling so far. The Manhattan Projects, Harvest, and Revival have all knocked me right off my young feet. I'm definitely branching out and reading more by these writers.The ArtThis com...
