Hey guys,Episode 10 of LG15: The Resistance rolled out today, and, as per usual, is available at www.lg15.com, www.youtube.com, www.hulu.com, et al. The last few episodes are doozies, so, if you haven't been watching, get to it. You're breaking Papa Josh's heart.
Also of note (and forgotten by me last week) was the arrival of Firebreather #3 from Image Comics and superstar creators Phil Hester and Andy Kuhn. Now, as if the fact that it's easily one of the best superhero books on the stands wasn't quite enough for you, it has yet another dose of Fleecs and Fialkov fun. I kid you not, Tony Fleecs is going to take this industry by storm one day, and you could say you've been on board since the beginning.
Or just lie about it. Either way. The book should be at your local comic shop, under Image Comics. If it's not, YELL AT THEM TO ORDER IT!
That's all the that that there is. Thanks for reading, and keep the faith.

THE CLEANERS #1 Dark Horse ComicsThis is a completely modern horror story that hinges on the age old fear of blood and the contemporary fear of what type of diseases lie within it. It’s the story of a businessman who makes a living cleaning up blood at crime scenes. He’s a private businessman who takes care of things either when the job is too complicated to alert the authorities or just too damn weird to go about conventional means to clean the mess up. The credits of this book read that it was written by Mark Wheaton (who I haven’t heard of) and “directed” by Joshua Hale Fialkov (who I do know from the phenomenal ELK’S RUN miniseries). The book really does dole out a healthy dose of paranoia and makes you feel downright ooky upon reading it. The art by Rahsan Ekedal isn’t much by way of frills, but conveys a no nonsense, in your face look at the crime scenes which dissect every corner and label the essential components of it. It makes for a CSI-like experience while reading it, a bell and whistle that adds to the story without distracting you. I’m going to follow this book closely to see where all of this blood splatter is coming from. - Bug

The Cleaners #1 (of 4) – Review « Weekly Comic Book Review.com
It can be hard to find new, original ideas in comics, but this is definitely one of them. Although this first issue was a little light on plot, Wheaton and Fialkov have still written an excellent fusion of noir and supernatural horror that loves its genres and respects their trappings. And to compliment the unique tale, Rashan Ekedal’s art is suitably detailed and gritty, proving to be the right choice to realize Wheaton and Fialkov’s story. I can’t wait to grab the next issue and see where they go with this.
