Trade Waiting – The Waking Dead Vol 13: Too Far Gone
By this stage, it can be hard to review a trade of this series. Robert Kirkman doesn’t write in defined arcs that can stand alone, though this trade does encapsulate what I would call the second half of the introductory arc for this new status quo in the title.

Return of the Dapper Men – Review
This book from Jim McCann and Janet Lee has been promoted heavily for quite some time and now is finally set to hit shelves through the publisher Archaia . It’s an interesting concept, that 314 rather dapper gentlemen fall from the sky to fix some problems in the land of Anorev. Despite the title, this is NOT A SEQUEL, and is actually a charming and brilliant hybrid of comic styles and children’s picture book sensibilities.

Free Comics Review for 10/13/10
Welcome to the second edition of Free Comics Review ! The launch of the new column was well received, so I am probably going to be doing this for a while. If you have any questions, tips, or advice on how we can make this new feature better, you can always leave a comment below. Something I forgot to mention last week is this: if you don’t have an Apple mobile device, you can still read some of these comics for free (with the exception of the Marvel ones)! Just go to Comics.Comixology.com , open an account, and you’ll be able to read them on your computer
