Medioctity, thy name is Unstuffed

I'm back for the summer and just wanted to clear up a thing or two. I know I wrote pretty optimistically about Corey Messer's comic, but after giving him a few months, I'm removing it from my comics tab. The back story was a set up for something bold, challenging, and creative, the comic itself has disappointed me. The comic's unbelievable dialogue, confusing fight sequences, and two dimensional characters have outstayed their welcome in my life. I hope one day to have someone tell me that Messer has grown to fill the challenge he laid for himself in his conic's premise, that day has not yet come.

Jeph Jaques posted three new comics he discovered this past week. I plan on reviewing them soon. So far I've been perusing the archives of Gunnerkrigg Court and I am loving it! More on that tomorrow.
