Dexter #1 – Review

By: Jeff Kindsay (writer), Dalibor Talajic (art), Ive Svorcina (colors) and Cory Petit (letters)

The Story: A comic Dexter story just in time to cash in on the show that started Season 8 last week!

Review: Let’s be succinct: Don’t read this comic.

This is actually the kind of comic that offends me.  “They” have a popular property and “they” decide to shovel out a comic series that is low-quality merely because they know they don’t have to try any harder since people will buy it based on the name alone.  It’s the same problem that plagues video games that are related to a summer blockbuster movie or novelizations of movies or new versions of Monopoly based on licensed properties.  This stuff is usually crap, yet we buy it because we kinda like one media property with that brand name, so we might like another.
