Puppet Master #1, 2

Publisher: Action Lab!/Danger Zone
Writer: Shawn Gabborin
Artist: Michela Da Sacco

Somehow I missed the first issue of Puppet Master, don’t ask me how that flew under my radar.

For those who don’t know Puppet Master was a series of horror film from Charles Band and Full Moon Entertainment, the fact that it took so long to make the jump to comics is amazing.

It has made good on that jump though. These first two issues of Puppet Master are damn good. Not great, but good. Just like the films they are based on, good genre horror films.

If one is familiar with the Puppet Master films, then one will love this series. The greatest compliment it can be given is that it feels like a Puppet Master story, hell like one of the films themselves. It follows along the same structure Charles Band himself set out twenty plus years ago.

The writing is solid, with the best part being the character development. The artwork is excellent, bringing everything to life.

Action Lab! are the guys behind this title, and they have been putting out some great stuff. Another hit for these guys.

FINAL THOUGHT: Puppet Master fans Rejoice! Others, check it out and learn why you should fear puppets.
