SUPER REAL NOTES - Review-o-rama!

A couple weeks after the books came out, Super Real VS The Comic Book Industry is piling up some reviews...

Here are 3 more that have hit over the last couple days, 2 reviews are some of the best I've received for the series, and one just didn't like the sidetrack/detour the special took. Have a look!


First up we have a review over on BROKENFRONTIER.com from columnist and Super Real fan Jason Berek Lewis -

Martin’s comedic writing skills get stronger with each issue.
and
Martin has rewarded his dogged fans with a light, entertaining special that gives indie talent a chance to shine. He is a true champion of independent comics, and Super Real is a winning read every time.

Next we have a review in the weekly PAPERBACKREADER.com column STRAY VOLTAGE by Dan Head -

I dug this issue the most, and I recommend it highly to anyone with an even half-developed sense of humor.
and
The sense of playfulness in this book shines through from start to finish, making this one a real winner.

And last, the not so swell review from Marc Mason's THECOMICSWAITINGROOM.com -

SUPER REAL is a book that is very much worth your time, but ultimately this digression for the series doesn’t pay off.

Marc just wasn't feeling the art here most of all, and the different tone, which is fine, you can't please em all. :)

Oh, and I almost forgot, found this one the other day while Googling the Special...
A podcast review from COMICNEWSINSIDER.com, episode 81 features a review of the special from the review pair, and while they go on about liking the book and wanting to check out the regular series, when it comes time to rate it (via a 3 tiered soundbyte rating system), they only gave it two "MEH's" (middle rating)... come on guys, you know you liked it better than MEH!! ;)
You can check out their podcast HERE (remember it's Episode 81)

So, 2 loved it's, an it was good but not great, and an "I like the series, but the special didn't do it for me"... to paraphrase.
Not bad!

STAY TUNED,
jason
