Comic book spotlight: BLOKES TOMB OF HORROR #5

Yesterday I reviewed BLOKES TOMB OF HORROR #4, and today I will let you know about the latest issue, which is issue #5. Issue 5 is the "Italian invasion Issue 2", which features the wild tales of the DJUSTINE character seen in previous issues. These are all new stories so you don't need to have read the previous issues to enjoy this newest issue (although as good as this comic series is, there is no reason not to go back and read all the back issues!). I can honestly say this series is in my top 5 favorite Horror comics of all time! That is saying a lot, but I just love these comics and I know you other horror fans will too.


BLOKES TOMB OF HORROR #5


Issue #5 gives us Horror fans a whopping 12 stories to dig into. Each story is written by DJUSTINE creator Enrico Teodorani with artwork by a different artist, so each story you can a unique visual take on the story and the character of DJUSTINE. Stories in this issue include the following:


DEATH WALKS WITH DJUSTINE - The first tale of DJUSTINE shows here in an epic showdown between her and Diabla, the Devil's own daughter!
BEWARE DJUSTINE IS COMING - a small western town beckons DJUSTINE to help them rid their problem of the dead rising from the graves....but after DJUSTINE takes care of their problem, her problems are just beginning!
DJUSTINE IN THE CHURCH OF EVIL - DJUSTINE interrupts a groups attempt to offer up a girl to Satan, but is she too late??
DJUSTINE AND THE DEAD - A short, simple story told with no dialog, which shows us what DJUSTINE does best....killing the living dead!! (on a personal note, the artwork by Enrique Badia Romero is one of my favorite envisionings of the DJUSTINE character)
DJUSTINE CONTRA EL HOMBRE LOBO - A one page depiction of DJUSTINE battleing werewolves!!
5 GRAVES FOR DJUSTINE - DJUSTINE is has been invited to a graveyard duel by infamous gunslinger Ringo Hauff, but when she arrives, she finds her old nemesis, Diabla, who has received the same invatation. But this is no time to fight amongst themselves, as they have to team up to fight Ringo Hauff and his undead gang of friends!
DJUSTINE VS ZOMBI GUNSLINGER - DJUSTINE has to use something a little stronger than bullets when she is facing an undead enemy!
DJUSTINE BY THE CEMETERY - DJUSTINE has battled the undead and werewolves, so it was just a matter of time before she had to battle a vampire!
THE WITCH IS BACK - DJUSTINE take revenge on the townfolk that accused her friend of being a witch and burning her alive.
MADAM FRANKENTEINS CASTLE OF FREAKS - Madam Frankenstein has control over a group of freaks that do her every bidding...but when DJUSTINE takes that control away, Madam Frankenstein's freaks extract their revenge on their former master!
THAT CURSED DAY OF WINTER - While DJUSTINE had every intent of taking in this criminal alive, the wanted poster did say DEAD or alive....
HOUSE OF NIGHTMARES - while taking refuge in an old home, DJUSTINE is captured and treated in all sorts of inhumane ways, but lucky for her, she wakes up to discover it was just a dream....or was it? (This is my other personal favorite art style of the DJUSTINE character drawn by Nik Guerra)

This is another great issue to add to your collection. Be warned that is one is not for the kiddo's for sure (not that any of the other issues are!), but this issue packs even more brutal violence and busty babes than most issues! Click the link below to purchase issue #5 today!

Comic book spotlight: BLOKE'S TOMB OF HORROR #4

You might remember from a while back when I did a post about the awesome comic book company, Virus Comix. Well I have just read the latest 2 issues of their awesome title, BLOKES TOMB OF HORROR, and I have to say that these just keep getting better as they go. I'm not sure how that is possible considering how good those first few issues were, but they do seem to keep getting better! Each issue of BTOH contains multiple short stories written by different writers and different artists on almost every story. Each artist brings their own style of art and what you end up with is a very cool collection of stories and art styles, all together in one volume. This is a very cool comic and I highly recommend it for all you fans of Horror comics! The latest issues are #4 and #5. Reviewed here first is issue #4. Check back tomorrow for my review of issue #5!

BLOKES TOMB OF HORROR #4

Blokes Tomb of Horror #4 states on it's cover that is "52 pages of Blood Dripping Madness!" and it doesn't lie. BTOH #4 gives you 7 tales of non-stop horror! Stories include:

DARK WULF CHAPETER 2 -(continued from issue #2) continues the story of a great warrier who battles the n the evil and undead, in order to seek revenge on those that killed his wife and child.
PARIS 1830 - tells the story of a killer on the loose in France, but this is no ordinary killer!
TOMB OF BLOKE VS CALEVERA - a tale of a razor clawed woman battling the undead who falls victim to one of the undead enemies she battled..but is this the last we have seen of Calevera??
FRANKENSTEIN VS THE LIVING DEAD - see what happens when an army of the undead invade a castle, but not just any castle....Frankenstein's castle!!
CALAVERA: BLOODBOUND - a darkly funny story where Calavera saves the life of a girl about to be killed by a winged vampire demon...or does she?
CALAVERA IN STRANGER AEONS - a short story, told with no dialog, but explained in a quote from H.P. Lovecraft --"and in stranger aeons, even death may die"
THE DEVIL AND THE GIRL- a tale of love between two lovers gone horribly wrong with beautiful artwork by Stefano Alghisi.

As I stated above, each issue of BTOH just keeps getting better. Issue #4 is another great issue that kept me entertained the entire length of the comic. With some anthologies like this, you might get one or two great stories, a couple good ones, and then some that you just skip over because they don't keep your attention. That is not the case here with BTOH #4. Each tale is entertaining and a fun read. Each story is fairly short, so they jump right into the action and don't let up. Virus Comix has hit another home run with Blokes Tomb of Horror #4!!
