Seeing as it‘s Star Wars day I thought I‘d start this book. May the Fourth be with you!

Well that was violent and and disgusting and offensive and trippy and, okay, entertaining.
There's satire floating in amongst the repugnance but I suggest a strong stomach and a not too sensitive temperament. 🤢
Solid horror, some truly creepy concepts.
It's not all pretty, but there's some very skillful art in evidence.
1/2

Today's reading

1. The Victorian Era, Pioneer/Gilded Age Era, modern day, and the future (you can't make me choose just one ;-) )
2. Still reading “Bookshops & Bonedust“ by Travis Baldree and “A Sky of Infinite Blue“ by Kyomi O'Connor
3. Since starting to keep track of my reading in 2014, the longest book I've read is “Tomie“ by Junji Ito (750 p). But as for a traditional novel, it would be “The Woman in White“ by Wilkie Collins (672 p).

4/150 I'm not sure how to describe this. It's dark, gothic, kind of steampunkish, but also has the flavor of old pulpy adventure stories. Screw-On head works for President Lincoln, as an agent investigating strange and occult events. It's actually pretty funny, in a dark quirky way.

While cleaning out my “to read” list here, I decided to download any graphic novels that were available from my library. This was the first one I read because it was the one I was most excited about - but it fell a little flat. The storyline moved a little too quickly - long standing resentments resolved in a frame or two - but the characters were great. I wanted more!

In space, no one can hear you scream with joy as you read an alternative future for Ripley, Newt and Hicks in this enjoyable collection of pre-Alien 3 comics. The art is a mixed bag but the writing is true to the spirit of the first two films in the series. The coolest part was when the plot tackles the mystery of the “Space Jockey” twenty years before “Prometheus.” The story takes some bold swings and not all connect, but fans won‘t mind.

A leftover TBR read from October! Tomie is gorgeous, evil, and incites violence everywhere she goes- and killing her often just makes her multiply like some kind of sexy gremlin. This graphic novel is more slaying than sleighing, so not at all a Christmas read, lol.

A nice, meaning gruesome, rendition of the cult film.
