Resident horror aficionado, Decapitated Dan of Comic Related’s weekly comic review, Horror Comic Round Up, gave high marks for recent issues of Stitched and Crossed: Badlands. ?On this stage, only the best horror comics are reviewed and presented for hardcore fans of all things frightful. ?Here is what he had to say about these Avatar titles:
Crossed Badlands #36 (Avatar Press)
Decapitated Dan:?This arc by Lapham was really good, but I do admit I was lost because I did not read the previous arc that contained this cast. This is one of those, I wish they did a recap page issues, well all 4 issues of this arc, because it would have been a good way to get me caught up on what came before. This storyline also left itself wide open to come back to one very interesting character, Crossed Pope. Well I will call him that, I am sure he was probably just a priest. The artwork by Ruiz s great, and has been very solid throughout this storyline. There really is not more to say, it was a great arc. Now bring on the next one!?- Dying Breath 4.0 out of 5.0
Stitched #16 (Avatar Press)
Decapitated Dan:?I know lately I have been telling you over and over how good the books coming from Avatar Press are, and it reflects in the reviews, but seriously he comes another. When I started reading this series with issue #1 it was good, but I didn’t keep up with it. However with the past few issues I am all in and I can not wait for more. I think what is happening is this book is beyond AGH-Mazing, and I really tip my decapitated head to Mike Wolfer! In this issue, we not only got to see the Stitched in action, but there was also this F^$#&!%* CREEPY ASS scene with a ghost! It makes sense though, it takes place in Japan, why not add a ghost. The artwork by Heinz is a thing of beauty. Let me refer back to the ghost scene, HOLY S#^! that was creepy. Let’s just sum it all up with a simple math equation … Wolfer + Heinz = HOLY F^$#&!%* S#^! READ STITCHED! -?Dying Breath 4.5 out of 5.0
