SOUTHERN-FRIED HOMICIDE
by Michael H. Price and selected artists
b&w
Paperback: 80 pages
Cremo Studios/Shel-Tone Publications
ISBN: 0966376609
$7.95
Michael H. Price's collaborators include underground comics legend Frank Stack (Adventures of Jesus), humor high prince Mark Martin, Hollywood historian George Turner, Mark Evan Walker, Adrian Martinez (Heavy Metal ), Don Mangus, Todd Camp, Dennis Spies, writer John Woolly and the inimitable Spencer Williams, Jr.!
David LeBlanc (ComicBkNet@aol.com), Comic Book Net Electronic Newsletter:
The accompanying press release indicated this work is "an awesome anthology of short comic book stories featuring fact and fictional tales of murder most foul, shocking suspense, and disturbing down home folklore." It is extensive and does cover a wide range of story types. And it certainly is SOUTHERN-FRIED, to the point of annoyance in some places with the phonetic accents laid on a bit too thick. What it does do is catch the mood of the classic 50s crime comics and pulp fiction. The art with very few exceptions is up to par and on occasion stands out and grabs your attention. [...] 

As a whole the work is indeed amazing as it crams an awful lot of variety in 80 pages. Certainly something here for most folk, unless you just don't take a hankerin' to no southern slang.

J.C. Vaughn, Combo Magazine:

Comics/Animation Newswire:
"puts a new twist to the Dracula mythos"

The saga of the madman as portrayed in Bram Stoker's classic novel, Dracula. Tormented by visions, Renfield must decide on joining the darkness if he wishes to obtain immortality. But what price will he have to pay?

The author, Gary Reed:
Explaining the personal torment of a man going mad.
This story of Renfield is not a vampire story or a story of Dracula but rather of the torment of a man plagued with visions of what he deems a messiah, come to rescue him from mortality. It is a saga of a man consumed by madness and faced with a choice of immortality or humanity.

JOHNNY THE HOMICIDAL MANIAC
(Director's Cut)
by Jhonen Vasquez
Paperback: 168 pages
Slave Labor Publications
ISBN: 0943151163 
$19.95
"Demonically funny."
.
From the Introduction by Rob Schrab:
"Vasquez has touched something important here. There's a little monster inside all of us . . . We mustn't ignore that monster."
Mayhem and violence rule in this collection of issues one through seven of Jhonen Vasquez's Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, as well as material seen before only in Carpe Noctem magazine. Dark and disturbingly funny, JTHM follows the adventures of Johnny (you can call him Nny), who lives with a pair of styrofoam doughboys that encourage his madness, a wall that constantly needs a fresh coat of blood, and--oh, yeah--his victims in various states of torture. Join Nny as he frightens the little boy next door (Todd, known to fans of Vasquez's work as Squee), thirsts for Cherry Brain Freezies, attempts suicide, draws Happy Noodle Boy, and tries to uncover the meaning of his homicidal existence.

Subliminal meassage: Eat the peas... 
Johnny The Homicidal Maniac is far more than an existential-gen-x-goth-gore-comic-book, it's truly a parable of modern times where the protagonist is at times highly likeable and easy to identify with; while at other times he's despicable and just not nice... This work explores Confucian ideas of civility and morality – is chalked full of artful angles and highly stylized art – boasts an amazing array of fantastic monologues – and all while indulging a morbid satirical sense of humor. Something, which adds an interesting perspective, is the fact that the protagonist is a villain with whom we can identify.

“I'd hate for Nny (Johnny) to be some one-dimensional monster. There is no doubt in my mind that he's a villain in a story peopled by slightly less reactionary villains. I also don't want there to be some convenient origin to his character that would make us understand how he came to be, thus making us sympathetic towards his situation.” -- Jhonen Vasquez.

Another most interesting thing, which this book contains, is its dual perspectives; you may either see it as the story of a demented schizophrenic or an unlucky subject of a supernatural mishap, or perhaps something in-between. All in all, this is an amazing piece of work.

Spooky meassage: The peas is evil I tells ya! evil!
