  New Worlds Comics is a new independent digital comic book publisher. Their two titles are Wynter and Goof . Lyesmith had the pleasure of reviewing the first two issues of Wynter , both available on the app for your iPad. Lyesmith: I'm going to give the warning that this is for mature readers, but I will say, it's nothing explicit or for the sake of being explicit. It's all tastefully done and if it were a movie would probably teeter between a PG-13 and an R depending on how some of the scenes were handled. Basically, when it comes to kids (read: teenagers) you're getting the warning I give whenever I suggest any comic book - be a parent. Read it. Judge it based on your kids maturity. Moving on. Set in a futuristic universe filled with populated planets and trillions of human lives, Liz Wynter struggles with the fact that she's not special.

 Hey, Geeks and Geekettes, welcome to the Geekin' review of Creepy Scarlett by Graeme Buchan.   @ScarlettComic     Buy Creepy Scarlett Book One I knew little-to-nothing about Creepy Scarlett, other than what I read from the Kickstarter page, when I started reading this comic.

  @TalesofHonor @TopCow Honor Harrington is the heroine of the eponymous "Honorverse", a universe described in a series of best-selling military science fiction books, written by David Weber . If you haven't heard about Honor Harrington, The Honorverse, or Tales of Honor, don't feel bad. I hadn't either at first, and still likely wouldn't know of it's existence if it weren't for my rabid obsession love for everything that has anything to do with Top Cow comics. But brace yourself, because you're about to hear a lot more about it, and not just because you clicked on a link for a blog post about it. Evergreen Studios is launching into a multi-media barrage for Tales of Honor. Evergreen has Top Cow's Matt Hawkins writing the comic book adaptation, the art's by Jung-Geun Yoon and Linda Sejic. This is my first viewing of Yoon's work, but Sejic is always a good name to see on a comic! It was very interesting to hear ...
