2016 Comic Challenge 225 Battlestar Galactica Zarek #01

TITLE-Battlestar Galactica Zarek #01
PUBLISHER-Dynamite

This is the start of a mini series that fills in the backstory to Tom Zarek,played by Richard Hatch on the show.

And while giving us the story of his childhood we find out more about the origins of the Cylons. Info that at least to me I hadn't heard before.

The art is decent. It does have that sameness feel that lots of Dynamite titles do.

Battlestar Galactica Zarek #01 gets a borrow.

2016 Comic Challenge 224 Jughead #08

TITLE-Jughead #08
PUBLISHER-Archie

So Archie and our titular hero are lost in the woods with a bear right behind them. Thankfully Mr Weatherbee is around and starts leading the guys out of the woods.

But there seems to be someone  in the woods that hates the Bee. And keeps setting traps for him. Finally we find out it is one of the Mantle family. One who use to bully the Bee back in high school.

Finally the 3 guys make it out of the woods. Archie thinks he is at the all teen girls camp. But turns out that camp got changed into a younger kid camp a few years back.

Overall this was a decent little story. Kind of sucks it is Zdarsky's last issue. But at least Derek Charm is staying on handling the art chores.

Jughead #08 gets a buy.
