How 2000 AD's Sinister Dexter got turned around from a turgid bore of a comic to one of this year's essential reads:  Click to read!

I really enjoyed writing this, and man alive, did I ever enjoy episode five of "In Plain Shite."  I cut it from the review for length and coherence, but the climax reminded me of Donald Westlake / Richard Stark spending six pages of story describing a single minute in which Parker beat the absolute hell out of eight people in a room.  Magic.

This is the first time in a really long time that I can't wait for more Sin Dex.  Wow.

That was a fun read Grant, and I couldn't agree more. I wasn't too keen when I heard Sin-Dex would be back, but I was immediately wowed by John Burns' magnificent artwork and the fun script by Abnett,  and by the end I wanted more! I might give it all a re-read soon.

Cheers.
