Diving head first into the thousands of back issues on our shelves, grabbing a random comic, writing what I think. Today’s issue:

Comic Book: Welcome To Hoxford #4 (7 in stock)

I’m not generally a big fan of the horror genre, though I’ve been reading a decent “Vampires on the Mississippi” book lately (Fevre Dream by George RR Martin), so maybe this comic will appeal…

I do like Ben Templesmith’s art. I’ve seen and appreciated his covers for a while, but this is actually the first time I’ve opened one up. Gorgeous colors. Nicely creepy. He likes to draw beasties with great big curvy tongues.

This is the last issue of a werewolf story, taking place in a mental institution named “Hoxford”, and it looks like it nicely ties up some reasonably straight forward story lines: werewolves vs. werewolves, inmates vs. werewolves, etc. Nice twist to the story, too. Not bad, maybe I’ll hop back to the earlier issues and read the whole thing!
