What interests me in DH December solicits

Dark Horse Comics December 2014 solicits.

Just doing a quick look over the Dark Horse solicits for December and noting the things that interest me.

Horror has never worked for me as horror. The Hellboy and Mignola titles always make good dark urban fantasy, though: Abe Sapien, BPRD: Hell on Earth, and Hellboy & the BPRD.

Chris Roberson always entertains. Looking forward to his Aliens: Fire & Stone. Now will someone get the rights for and hire Chris to write a Thundarr comic? Please?

Steve Niles' Criminal Macabre is dark urban fantasy noir. Same for Eric Powell's The Goon if you add the qualifier "weird."

Dark Horse Presents #5 has a Joe Casey and an Alex de Campi story. SOLD! Alex de Campi also does Grindhouse: Drive In, Bleed Out.

I'm looking forward to reading Terminator Salvation: The Final Battle by J. Michael Straczynski & Pete Woods as a piece. Gail Simone and Rhianna Pratchett co-write Tomb Raider, and Pratchett is another writer who needs to write more comics.

My heart thrills and cries. Stan Sakai closes on the end of his Usagi Yojimbo epic.
