Just done reading the latest issue of the current run of DYNAMITES "Army of Darkness."
Personally, I haven't really enjoyed many of the AOD comics prior to this one.
The AOD ones, the "vs" titles, the adaptations...aside from the novelty, I just did not like them.
So this second "ongoing" series comes out, and it's actually a fresh kind've twist that the former series haven't offered. The general storyline flows a bit better as well, and in all honesty I much prefer the simpler art to the weirdness I've seen in the former series.
I don't put a lot of stuff about ALL the comics I read in here, but when I got done reading this issue, I stopped and thought about how much I'd liked this series thus far...I'd definately recommend it.

The "vs marvel zombies" series was funny, but not too great...

So yeah, this one's still running, and there's been Wildstorms "freddy vs jason vs ash" recently too...this was yknow...not bad, just not really "AOD/ED" in theme, more for a fan of the slashers there, I think.

One really good read I've had lately too, is the actual "Evil Dead" comic by Dark Horse- taking place prior to/during the events of the first film with new dialogue/narrative, GREAT art, the best ever in one of these comics, and some pretty neat little twists on the original story. I would hope that if ever there's a "remake" film as rumoured, whoever did it would pay the respect to the subject matter that the team on this comic does.
