Comic Unknown's Venomous Vengeance 

Death-Rattler Issue One

Death-Rattler Issue Two

Welcome to the SciFi-Western world of Death Rattler, where futuristic technology is the norm but we still have our cowboys or bounty hunters galavanting and causing chaos. The story follows Dawson Coles, a young woman who will stop at nothing to destroy and seek revenge on the gang that caused the death of her family. She is dubbed Death-Rattler as her bullets are laced with the poison of the Death-Rattler snake. In her mission to kill all of the Devil's Cross gang members including the gang leader, she begins to hit a snag the moment she has a bounty on her head. With bounty hunters on her tail, she must think fast on how she can complete her objective. Some hunters include but are not limited to a large gun for hand bandit, a Texas ranger, and a spiritual Native Indian tracker. The cast of the series can not go unnoticed as even the most minor characters have distinct physical traits. The characters are easily fleshed out and can even have their own mini-series if there was enough interest. 

Death-Rattler Issue Three

Death-Rattler is undoubtedly a fun read and the polished illustrations are not overlooked. The suggestive art style may be a fundamental reason some audience would be drawn to the series, but the story ices the cake. Death-Rattler is the much needed western vengeance story the comic world needs. The series throws the audience into a dangerous adventure with only one thing in mind: Get the Devil's Cross Boss. Currently in the third issue, the four part series has action that does not disappointed.  It is recommended to take the plunge into the Rattlerverse especially if the opportunity to binge read the issues is available. The only limitation Death-Rattler might have, is not making the series into a five issue series and giving the hunters a more detailed backstory. All characters stand out so well that some deserve additional panels of story.  Having the series slowly creeping to a close, what new obstacles must Dawson Coles overcome to reach her goal? 

Created by Kelly Bender (writer) and Ryan Downing (illustrator), the creative team also includes Ivan Mirander as the inker, Alan Bay as the colorist and Micah Myers as the letterer. The collective effort from these creators definitely pay off as Death-Rattler finishes. Published by Insane Comics, each issue can be purchased from Insane Comic's site both digital or in print or Death-Rattler can be purchased digitally via Comixology. Readers can catch Kelly Bender, Ryan Downing, Alan Bay and Micah Myers on Twitter as they post updates as well as any new comics they may be working on.

Mindless Behavior

COMIC UNKNOWN'S KIDS AT HEART

Welcome to a sci-fi fantasy world where a human befriends an android and ventures out through a mutant infested environment only known as Radiation Burn. Radiation Burn primarily focuses on the two friends Jedediah and Mictlantecuhtli (Mick for short). Jed and Mick are survivors in an irradiated wasteland far in the future where mutants and humans live together, somewhat. In such society in this bleak future, the duo have a tendency for self-preservation and persevere in these badlands. Radiation Burn Issue One has the two man/droid team on a downhill slope starting with a preemptive attack against them by a mutant. Fortunately, they were able to call in a bounty by bringing the mutant's head to town. Rumors start to circulate quickly about their victory, causing another mutant to retaliate. Push comes to shove and they survive the second attack but with a cost. The town they once knew is somehow destroyed while the duo was fighting the mutant. The situation went from bad to worse. and trouble has a way of following them throughout the comic causing new (mis)adventures to occur. This is just one story of the many in this issue, three more to be precise with each story having their own tale all leading back to Mick and Jed. 

James Johnson illustrated and wrote this great and fun comic with plenty of adult humor. Radiation Burn Issue One is very fresh and has an engaging set of stories in all the right ways. The comic never hurts to be silly particularly when you're all grown up. The illustration is very playful which follows the theme of the comic overall making the reading experience clear and enjoyable. Given the setting is a post-apocalyptic world where humans and mutants destroy each other to survive, it still finds a way to be playful and satisfying. Johnson's comic is full of brilliant content in every chapter of the issue. Johnson has an ever changing style of narrative that is steadily keeping the reader enthralled.  Radiation Burn is available for $1.99 on Comixology as well on WP Comics for both physical and digital copies. Don't forget to follow and support Radiation Burn through WP Comics and their Facebook.

Nevera Tales

Into the Abyss with Comic Unknown

We will spare you the fine details of Nevera Tales as mortals have a limited time for tales as we would not want someone to expire before we are done recounting this review. Nevera Tales is a story of Aston, a captured vampire who patiently waits and plays the long game to find his way to escape. His captors chained him enough to maneuver tools and put an iron mask on his face leaving nothing but a hole in front of his eye for him to navigate through. The iron mask is to prevent him from drinking blood but he can survive without it for a long time and he wasn't alone however, he was surrounded by other undead beings. Zombies, ghouls, and vampires, all constricted in a similar fashion. Now a slave deep underground how long will he have to wait until he finds his opportunity to escape?

This sublime, and rich narrative belongs to Daniel Bishop. Nevera Tales expresses its story in a nontraditional way for a comic book. Instead of having the dialogue within the panels, the narrative is done through a monologue that outlines the amazing art. It takes a small moment to grow accustomed to the layout, but it works very well both with and without the audiobook they have available. The ambiance of the audio file easily sells the story and having such a. The background noise immerses you in that dark atmosphere in which the vampire is in, I highly recommend it. The melancholy but spot on illustration was done by Marek Joracki. His dark, alluring art style gives Bishop's story life and I hope to expect more from the duo. It is a surprise how low their Kickstarter reached considering the talent that is behind such a beautifully crafted book. Follow them on their social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram which contains loads of information about Nevera Tales. Nevera Tales is available for purchase at Tiger Crab Studios both physically and digitally for $5.00 or the digital copy for a $1.00 in English or German or on Amazon.
