The Silver Skull

Sunday, June 6th, 2004

Les Daniels writes about comics these days, but back in the seventies he created Don Sebastian, a Spaniard and a vampire. This is the second title in the series. Don Sebastian’s skull has been taken to the New World, where an Aztec ritual brings him back to life and plunges him into the middle of Hernan Cortez’ assault on Tenochtitlan. I’ll have to track down the other titles in this series.

Worlds of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Volume One – Cardassia/Andor

Sunday, June 6th, 2004

The saga of DS9 continues in this first volume of a series set on the homeworlds of various characters. Una McCormack follows the new careers of Garak and the O’Briens on Cardassia while Heather Jarman takes us to Andor where we learn more about Shar and Prynn Tenmei. Both are satisfying reads and I look forward to new volumes.
