PvP (Vol. 2)

    (Image, 2003-Present)
™ and © Image Comics, Inc.
Black and white series.

Admit it: Every morning when you should be checking e-mail or doing something equally productive, you are logging in to check out the latest antics of Skull, Jade, Brent, and the rest of the gang at PvP. This smart, funny Web comic deserves to be syndicated and made every bit as successful as Dilbert ever was. So fans should be glad the strip is being presented as an Image comic book after a short run at Dork Storm Press, except—it does seem like a bit of an odd format.

If you’ve never heard of the strip before (and even if you have), this is a fine introduction to the PvP crew. Readers expecting more comic book style art and action may feel what they’re seeing is better suited for the daily funny page. And they’re right. This is too good to just be in an Image comic book, where it might be read by thousands, instead of syndicated in a daily newspaper, where it can be enjoyed by millions.
