I seem to recall there being some fans of Ben Templesmith and The Maxx here. Ben recently did art for the first 6 issues of
Ten Grand. Have not read it, but word of mouth has been positive. Not too surprising considering how massive a roll Image has been on. He also launched a
successful Kickstarter campaign for a graphic novel called The Squidder, which should be coming any time now.
IDW launched a remastered/rejiggered version of The Maxx called
The Maxx: Maxximized. All the art has been rescanned and it has a new coloring job overseen by Sam Kieth himself. He's also doing some content tweaks, which are probably best read about in
this interview with Kieth about the relaunch.
Also, I would be doing everyone a disservice if I didn't throw a mention out for the
Humble Image Bundle. Pay what you want for the DRM-free digital editions of the first TPBs (yes, trades, not single first issues) of some of Image's best titles. If you pay more than the average price you get even more awesome stuff, including the first two volumes of Saga (which everyone should be reading). Current average price is $10.04, which is a fucking bargain. $20 gets you the first and latest volume of The Walking Dead in addition to everything else. The only titles I haven't read yet in that bundle are Morning Glories and Revival, so I can't speak to their quality personally, but everything else is top notch and among the best in comics right now.
And while I'm bumping the thread, I'll throw a recommendation behind another Image title (told you they've been on a roll) I think a lot of people here would really dig called
Black Science. It's a new series from Rick Remender with Matteo Scalera on art and Dean White on colors that just wrapped up its first arc and is now on a three month hiatus. The gist: a scientist creates a device that can punch through dimensions. The device is sabotaged and the scientist, his team, and his family are dropped in the middle of a crazy world of tribal fish and frogmen that reside in ziggurats on top of giant turtles.
The first arc goes through a variety of locales full of weird monsters before ending on a cliffhanger that is going to bug the crap out of me while the book is on break. There's also a good deal of drama and tension between the group of stranded if you fancy that type of stuff, but the book never lets up on the pulpy monster sci-fi goodness. Image sells
digital copies of the singles DRM-free on their webstore (all of the digital comics on their webstore are DRM-free), and
comiXology has the first issue for only $1.
