From Super Secret Crisis War #6. Also with Sleepy Hollow #2, shorter monologues means shorter stories! Get with the programme! But where do these stories come from? Storyteller: Witches #3 there, though I'm not sure if the dog would capture all the finer point of Joyce's Ulysses. Crossed: Badlands has its Terminator 2 moment Not quite "come with[...]

No wonder they don't see the dangers, just annoyances… they should have read Original Sin to see how a word can take down a god. Because , in the Phantom, it's just what others think of you that counts. Uber revisits an observed flaw in Robert Morales and Kyle Baker's series Truth, asking if a nineteen[...]

Though it also reveals that the cast have run out of swear words now and are just having to make up new ones from component parts.   That'll be in the Oxford English Dictionary next year. They're simlarly arseholes-for-eyes obsessed in Squidder as well, from Ben Templesmith. Crossed: Badlands just goes as far as it possibly can. Until Original Sin[...]

Except this week things are a little toned down… the Crossed are a little more playful with their language in the Crossed Annual.

Swipe File: Crossed Vs Walking Dead, Via The Biscuit Game
As far as we're concerned, last issue's cliffhanger is still up and running. But Negan's plan does remind me of a certain scene from Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrow's original Crossed arc. Spying on the Crossed doing… something. We kind of do… But not just self abuse, there was reason behind their wankiness… Yup, the Crossed got there first, with[...]
