PIRATES OF CONEY ISLAND #1
 Image has provided Newsarama with a ten page preview of October’s The Pirates of Coney Island #1 (of 8) by Rick Spears, Vasilis Lolos, and variant cover artist Becky Cloonan. The solicitation for the issue reads: RICK SPEARS writer of the indie hit Teenagers From Mars and hot international artist VASILIS LOLOS rock this riotous, teenage, romp through young love, car jacking and gang violence. In this first issue Patch arrives in Coney Island only to get his eye sliced out by Trish, the wicked bad leader of the girl gang The Cherries. Across town, Sal, a pizza-selling bookie, meets a nasty end delivered by a monstrous shadow with a shotgun. All the fun begins here in the first super-rad issue of THE PIRATES OF CONEY ISLAND! 32 pg - FC - $2.99

"Welcome to the jungle, baby"? "You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here"? Man, those lines are trite... Still, love the art and the coloring. I think I'll wait for the trade and see if it gets good reviews. I didn't get enough from even this preview to take that much of a chance on this. Sorry.

Nice art, great logo design, cool colours, but yeah, awful dialogue. And what the hell is it with comics and knives lately? Knives are not cool.

The dialogue you guys are complaining about is from song lyrics, Guns and Roses and Semisonic. Or maybe you know that and that's why you think it's dumb. I thought it was pretty clever

Yup. That's what makes it seem trite to me. I've had Axl Rose stuck in my head all day. Not a good thing. |

Fan-freaking-tastic.
 I can definitely see Lolos at Vertigo and becoming a fan-fave.  Last edited by Kolimar : 08-24-2006 at 12:32 AM. |
