Revival is a new horror comic from Tim Seeley (Hack-Slash, Witchblade) and Mike Norton (Battlepug, Fear Itself: Youth in Revolt, Gravity). It's about a small town in Wisconsin where when people die, they're coming right back to life.

I've been thinking about making this post for a little while, but since today is apparently the day for such things, I may as well go ahead and do it.

Hack/Slash is about one part horror-movie parody to three parts nineties-style "bad girl" book. It's always been a lot better than it has any right to be, even if Cassie does dress like a stripper version of Dinah Lance, but it managed to fly almost completely off the rails at some point around issue #22 of its current run.

One of the high points of the book, though, is Cassie's relationship with Margaret "Georgia" Crump, a stripper from Florida who Cassie met in issue #2. It feels remarkably organic and real for a book that's largely concerned with a 5'5" white girl smacking zombies with a baseball bat, and I know several gay comic book fans who are fans of the comic specifically because of how it's treated Cassie and Georgia.

The following pages are PG-rated but do involve a couple of naked asses, so they're probably not work-safe.
