"Kabuki"

Yeah, I suppose I could've hunted down the singles of David Mack's latest "Kabuki" arc, but this creation is truly something that can't slum it up in bags, boards, and long boxes. "Kabuki" is almost a new medium of storytelling within the framework of comics. Each page is a true masterwork and can stand on its own if need be. The writing is complex and layered, the art is incredible and moving, and their marriage is truly something to behold for both comics fans and anyone who thinks they know the limits of this medium. That's why I was so happy that Marvel/Icon is giving the newest volume of this work hardcover treatment. Too bad we have to wait another couple months for this to drop (September 10th).
