Pull List 25: WildStorm's back?



Voodoo
Writer: Ron Marz
Artist: Sami Basri

Priscilla Kitaen has just found out she’s a monster. A half-alien hybrid, the woman known as Voodoo must confront the secrets of her past to make sense of the nightmare her life has suddenly become. VOODOO #1 will be written by Ron Marz with art by Sami Basri.


So, this is actually a WildStorm character and a member of the WildC.A.T.s team created in the early 90's. I'm not precisely sure WHY she's got a book all to herself or what it means for the DCU as a whole, but it's safe to say that the already large universe just got larger.

No comments on the creative team, other than Ron Marz wrote a pretty good Kyle Rayner when he did Green Lantern when I was but a mere boy. (And I missed half his run until I was a teenager.) If he thinks he has stories for Voodoo, I'll give it a shot for at least four months.

Bottom of the Pile: Apr. 8, 2015

Astro City As usual, Kurt Busiek's Astro City is creatively solid--following a superhero who's made his home on an alien planet, and has to learn to accept when it's time to hand the job over to the next generation.  It's almost the opposite of what happened with Crackerjack and Quarrel.  That said: I've been a denizen of the interwebs for nearly two decades now, and this still might be a strong contender for grossest sexual advance ever.
