Eliot Cole reviews Thief Of Thieves #5 by Nick Spencer and Shawn Martinbrough for Bleeding CoolThis is like a new issue one The thing is, that they really didn't need to have one as it's been going pretty well It feels like the beginning of a good caper film The setup of a crew, the[...]
Sometimes I wonder what would happen if {Paul Grist and Roger Langridge teamed up...Thief Of Thieves feels very unlike a comic, it uses few tricks of the medium to tell its story It's slow, it's measured, it's careful But here it uses single pages, each one to recruit a hesiut member, each one setting up[...]

Tomorrow we get the fourth issue of Thief Of Thieves, the new Robert Kirkman/Nick Spencer comic from Image Comics that's already been picked up for a TV series from AMC.Shops just can't keep this comic in stock, and the usual reduction of orders for subsequent issues from retailers hasn't been matched by lessening demand - quite the[...]
And we also join her in her mind, as she's dealing with her new reality.Anyway I understand that Jim McCann moved to LA last year at the urging of his agents, he's being repped by a big-time TV agent and looking at Twitter seems to have lots of friends in TV who are all pushing[...]

It's one of those comic convention… conventions. Getting a convention exclusive edition of a comic book and maybe getting it signed by the creators who happen to be there. Usually that signature is free…but there is also the suspicion that you may only be getting that comic signed so you can flip it on eBay […]
I can hear the spaffing as I type.Thief Of Thieves starts off with a genius juxtaposition of angles of view that, whether it was Kirkman, Spencer or Martinborough who conceived it, they should be very happy with themselves.Add to that the kind of crime caper that, well, you might expect from Ed Brubaker, and you're[...]
