Customer Reviews

Good!

I really enjoyed reading this because it was fun and fresh. The book is very well drawn and I enjoy the changes of style throughout the story. But sometimes I found myself getting lost in what is actually going on in an image. The one part that seems to fall short is the dialogue. At times it is funny, at other times it seems to be too immature or annoying. But overall, I would buy again!

Crazy Stuff

One of the best comics I have read in a while, original, hipp and fresh, even more fun to read when you're wasted.

Funny as Hell. The kinda comic I wanna DO!

I picked up Sharknife on a whim unsure of whether I wanted to drop ten bucks for it or not....but I decided to go for it after I read a few pages and laughed outright! Corey's artwork is also very alive and fluid, and it embodies everything I had hoped to achieve with my own style (mixing manga, graf, and action). The characters in shark are hilarious, and one feels as if they're watching an anime while reading the book. It's a short read, but trust me, if it doesn't earn it's $10 price tag with cool points alone, then nothing will. It's the Pulp Fiction of manga esque titles! I'm really glad I picked this one up. If you've ever seen FLCL and like the art of the Gorillaz, give shark knife a try. I cant wait till volume 2 comes out, it's made a fan out of me. Hell, I'm even downloading the songs from Guan Gong's jukebox!. Why September?
