Tales of honor. Volume 2, Bred to kill
An amazing new entry in the Honorverse mythos, Interesting...stylistically sound. The first ever original comic book tale set in David Weber's Honorverse! Following the success of Tales of Honor vol 1, which explored the origins of Weber's military heroine, the eponymous Honor Harrington, this second volume finds Honor is a never-before-seen adventure. On the leisure station Eros, naval commander Honor Harrington's roguish uncle has gone missing...under very mysterious circumstances. In the absence of actual shore leave, it's up to Honor and her crewmen, officers Horace Harkness and Scotty Tremaine, with the help of her pet Treecat, Nimitz, to infiltrate Eros and uncover a mystery of galactic proportions! But what they find will extend far beyond a simple kidnapping, and will push Honor and her crew to their absolute limits...and then some. Written by Matt Hawkins and Dan Wickline, with art from rising star Linda Sejic, this is one series that Scifi-fans - familiar with the Honorverse or not - won't want to miss. It collects Tales of Honor: Bred to Kill numbered 0-4.

Lawrence of Arabia in the Comics
[...]it shows Lawrence having destroyed one Turkish biplane with a flare gun and destroying a second plane by throwing a knife into its motor. [...]the author of this strange and kinky comic fails to explain Lawrence's personality development according to any coherent idea or logic, looking instead for every opportunity to graphically portray an invented sexual or sadistic scene however improbable. [...]once again, Lawrence's face as represented in this comic is not at all reminiscent of the face of the historical Lawrence. [...]the author tries to show how the apparently asexual Lawrence- who in this comic also holds high-minded views about equality between men and women and abhors slavery-becomes progressively less liberal, less virginal, and more sadistic as his role in Arabia deepens. (All the weaponry in this comic, incidentally, seems to be of the World War II or American Civil War but never World War I variety.) Deraa is not mentioned but what follows is obviously an imaginative interpretation of that incident.
Journal Article
Squire
From two incredible rising talents comes the fantasy graphic novel Molly Knox Ostertag calls \"instantly compelling.\" Aiza has always dreamt of becoming a Knight. It's the highest military honor in the once-great Bayt-Sajji Empire, and as a member of the subjugated Ornu people, Knighthood is her only path to full citizenship. Ravaged by famine and mounting tensions, Bayt-Sajji finds itself on the brink of war once again, so Aiza can finally enlist in the competitive Squire training program. It's not how she imagined it, though. Aiza must navigate new friendships, rivalries, and rigorous training under the unyielding General Hende, all while hiding her Ornu background. As the pressure mounts, Aiza realizes that the \"greater good\" that Bayt-Sajji's military promises might not include her, and that the recruits might be in greater danger than she ever imagined. In this breathtaking and timely story, Aiza will have to choose, once and for all: loyalty to her heart and heritage, or loyalty to the Empire.
