The Daily Blam Applauds SK #10!

\"\"

Eric Whitman at the Daily Blam reviews Skullkickers #10 and starts to see some of the broader world building that\’s appearing in the series, bit by bit.

\”Image\’s premier fantasy/action/comedy continually gets better with cute, but coarse, faeries and a leaky artery.\”…\”With its second story arc, world building has been a focus along with the wackiness. In this way, it retains all of the positive things while continually growing as an enticing product.\”

\"\"

MTV Geek has a brand new article listing their Top 25 Comic Series of 2011 and Skullkickers shows up at #9!

\”Few titles celebrate the pure joy of reading comic books like Skullkickers does. Mixing fantasy conventions with anachronistic humor and bloody, bloody violence, Jim Zub’s ongoing story of a big bald guy and an angry dwarf should be on every comic fans pull list; if not for the story, then at least for the laugh out loud sound effects. Also for the story, though.\”
