Comics Review: "THE RIBBON QUEEN #2" Takes No Prisoners

THE RIBBON QUEEN #2 (OF 8)

STORY: Garth Ennis

PENCILS: Jacen Burrows

INKS: Guillermo Ortego

COLORS: Dan Brown

LETTERS: Rob Steen

COVER: Declan Shalvey

VARIANT COVER ARTISTS: Tony Harris; Chris Ferguson and Jacen Burrows; Declan Shalvey

32pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (August 2023)

Rated: “Mature”

Chapter 2: “Something Impossible”

The Ribbon Queen is a new eight-issue miniseries from AWA Studios.  The series focuses on an ancient and terrible force that is loose in the modern world.  It is written by Garth Ennis; drawn by Jacen Burrows (pencils) and Guillermo Ortego (inks); colored by Dan Brown; and lettered by Rob Steen.

The Ribbon Queen introduces NYPD Detective Amy Sun and her current problem.  Three years ago, a young woman named Bella Rhineback was rescued from a serial killer by a police tactical unit.  Now she’s dead, and Amy has a bad feeling that the SWAT team leader, Keith Connolly, is responsible.  Now, as she investigates her own department, she discovers something old and awakened.  And it will confront everything she believes.

As The Ribbon Queen #2 (“Something Impossible”) opens, Detective Sun has just seen her “suspect,” Keith Connolly, unraveled into a bloody mess.  That's not the only complication as weirdness is going on, as something that should not just disappear … just up and disappeared.

Supernatural forces are at work, but Sun still believes that there is real-world corruption at her NYPD precinct.  Now, some of Connolly's colleague/thugs want answers and/or payback, and she still can't get answers about the supernatural stuff.

THE LOWDOWN:  AWA Studios marketing recently began providing me with PDF review copies of their comic book publications.  The Ribbon Queen #2 is the latest.

I've been dreading reading the PDF of The Ribbon Queen #2 that AWA Studios' marketing department sent me, but not because I thought it would be a bad read.  I've been dreading the contents.  The Ribbon Queen is the kind of imaginative and bone-chilling, blood-curdling horror that Stephen King and Clive Barker used to produce.  I wasn't sure that I was ready, but I was forced to bring my comic book review pimp game up a few levels. But seriously...

Writer Garth Ennis has essentially taken the police procedural and dressed it with some folk horror entrails.  The Ribbon Queen is crime fiction married to dark fantasy and bloody horror in way that mixes realism and surrealism.  So really the reader has to rely on the protagonist, who isn't so sure of a lot of things herself.

Jacen Burrows has been drawing disquieting comic book art for quite a while.  I felt icky reading some of his run on Marvel Comics' Moon Knight.  In The Ribbon Queen, Burrows is wrapping the narrative in insanity with inker Guillermo Ortego aiding and abetting.  Dan Brown's colors emphasize the quiet, determined relentlessness of the edgy supernatural darkness, and I chuckle at how letterer Rob Steen makes this all seem like normal storytelling.

The Ribbon Queen is … like WOW!  Don't deny yourself this most excellent comic book, dear readers.

I READS YOU RECOMMENDS:  Fans of Garth Ennis and (ought-to-be) fans of Jacen Burrows will want to read The Ribbon Queen.

Comics Review: "BIG GAME #2" - Nemesis Drops a Double-Nickel Game

BIG GAME #2 (OF 5)

IMAGE COMICS/Netflix

STORY: Mark Millar

ART: Pepe Larraz

COLORS: Giovanna Niro

LETTERS: Clem Robins

EDITOR: Sarah Unwin

COVER: Pepe Larraz with Giovanna Niro

VARIANT COVER ARTISTS: Leinil Yu with Sunny Gho; Pepe Larraz

28pp, Color, $4.99 U.S. (August 2023)

Rated M / Mature

Big Game is a new five-issue comic book event miniseries from writer Mark Millar and artist Pepe Larraz.  Big Game is a crossover event series that pulls together all the franchises that are part of Millar's company/imprint, “Millarworld.”  That includes Kick-Ass, Kingsman, Nemesis, and The Magic Order, to name a few.  Colorist Giovanna Niro and letterer Clem Robins complete the series' creative team.

Big Game is a sequel to the first Millarworld comic book miniseries, Wanted (2003-04).  The stars of that series, The Fraternity, the super-villains that secretly rule the world, defeated their superhero adversaries in 1986.  Now, this entity is concerned about the reemergence of superheroes, so it unleashes it new superhero killer, Nemesis (from Nemesis: Reloaded), on a hero assassination spree.

As Big Game #2 opens, Edison Crane (Prodigy) and Bobbie Griffin meet the Chrononauts, Corbin Quinn and Danny Reilly.  Crane, the world's smartest man, wants the duo to take him and Griffin back in time to 1986 for proof of that what Griffin says is true.  Superheroes did exist in the past.

Meanwhile, Doctor Choon-He Chung (The Ambassadors) and her international rescue squad, The Ambassadors, search for a missing Ambassador.  Plus, two early Millarworld favorites are forced together on new comics day.

THE LOWDOWN:  I have been receiving PDF review copies of Netflix/Millarworld's comic book titles since late 2021.  Big Game #2 is the latest.

Some of Millarworld's most popular comic book franchises and series have been adapted into Hollywood feature films.  They are Wanted (2008), Kick-Ass (2010), Kick-Ass 2 (2013), Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014), Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017), and The King's Man (2021).  These movies are so disparate that you, dear readers, would be surprised to know that their source material originates from a shared universe.

As a longtime Millarworld fan, it is both terrifying and thrilling to read Big Game, especially because Nemesis is on the prowl and is killing some of my favorite Millarworld good guys and anti-heroes.  Writer Mark Millar is having himself quite a bit of fun by tearing things apart, but the smart Millarworld readers (Is there any other kind?) know that Mark has shocks and surprises in store for us.  Plus, :nothing is really what it appears at first” is a truism in every one of Millar's comic book series.

Pepe Larraz's art is similar to the work of Bryan Hitch, a specialist in event comic books, and Larraz's storytelling style certainly suggests that this is truly a BIG event.  He is also good at creating an air of menace, suggested in the faces of the characters and in the overall narrative.  Giovanna Niro's colors serve this “dark universe” quite well, and Clem Robins' lettering is uniquely fashioned to amplify the soundtrack of Millar's scripts.

Big Game #1 had me curious to see what was next.  After reading that first issue, I almost guaranteed that the second issue of Big Game would blow the doorway to your imagination off its hinges, dear readers.  My hinges gave out.

I READS YOU RECOMMENDS:  Fans of Mark Millar and especially of his Millarworld titles will want to read Big Game.
