Pullbox Reviews Hans Vogel is Dead, volume 2- On his journey through the afterlife, a Nazi finds out how important it is to live a life that you can live with
https://www.thepullbox.com/2026/03/93350/
- Hans Vogel is Dead, volume 2
- Dark Horse Comics
- Written & illustrated by Sierra Barnes
Deceased Nazi ace pilot Hans Vogel continues his journey through an eerie afterlife populated by figures from German folklore in this second installment of Hans Vogel is Dead.
Just when he's begun to take responsibility for his actions in life, direct confrontation with the Erlking, his vicious allies, and Hans's own past may send him spiraling back into denial- leaving Reineke, the young fox-girl in his care, in danger. Can he muster his postmortem morality to make a stand for what's right, or will he return to complicit cowardice?
Sierra Barnes weaves a rich anti-fascist fairytale about the importance of recognizing past wrongs, even (especially) when it's easier not to.

March 29: INTERFAITH BOOKCLUB: MARCH by John Lewis at Fantom Comics
In my view, this is one of the best biographical graphic stories since Maus. I highly recommend it.
INTERFAITH BOOKCLUB: MARCH
>>SUNDAY, MARCH 29th @ 6:30pmFantom's interfaith book club will discuss civil rights icon John Lewis' graphic memoir trilogy MARCH—newly released as an all-in-one volume. Co-written by Congressman Lewis with Fantom friend Andrew Aydin and drawn by Nate Powell, MARCH won the National Book Award in 2016. The late Rep. Lewis came through Fantom in person himself twice when he was promoting the original releases of this trilogy, so we'll always feel a connection to March.

Creator Camilla Sucre interviewed by Jayme Brodie
>>SATURDAY, MARCH 28th @ 6:30pm
Join us to discuss the new Florida bayou horror graphic novel Mama Came Callin' 🐊 Camilla will be here in conversation with fellow Baltimore-based artist JAYME BRODIE for a discussion & signing—should be an interesting conversation for anyone interested in horror comics!
Kirah was born from an improbable interracial relationship that, in central Florida's infamous Asurupa County, defied all the odds. But her idyllic childhood was shattered by an urban legend come to life. The "Gatorman" was a nightmare on the lips of kids and grown-ups alike all the way back to Jim Crow: a monster with the body of a man, the head of an alligator—and a taste for Black children. That's who crawled into Kirah's window when Kirah was just five years old. According to the police, it was Kirah's own father who put on that gator mask and tried to kill her.A clever hybrid of swamp noir, slasher horror, and social satire—and brought to life by Camilla Sucre's vivid illustrations—Mama Came Callin' is a story about family and legacies, both the ones we inherit and the ones we can't escape.
Twenty years later, Kirah works hard to build a life unburdened by the traumatic events of her childhood. Just when it seems like she's managed to find her stride, her dad, fresh out of prison, crashes back into her world with a chilling message: 'He's coming for you.'
Finally forced to face the hideous family history she's been avoiding, Kirah sets off to discover where, and who, she truly came from. And the more she learns, the more disturbing the whole picture becomes. Turns out there's a lot more to the Gatorman than Kirah thought, and even worse: he isn't through with her just yet.

Gareth Hinds' Odyssey reissue appearances
Gareth tells me, " It would be understandable if anyone is confused about why I'm doing launch events for The Odyssey, which came out in 2010. It's because there's a new deluxe hardcover edition coming May 12. I'm also doing local events in College Park, Gaithersburg, and Alexandria, all of which are listed here: https://garethhinds.com/the-odyssey/ It's really just a fancy binding with foil, spot-lam, and sprayed edges -- no new content -- but for events and preorders at local stores I will be adding a signed limited edition print with each book."
Since it's been 15 years since I've seen Gareth talk about this book, and interviewed him, I'll probably stop into one of the signings.I'm glad this is an evergreen title for him.

ABOUT THE BOOK
"In her luminous debut, Stalvey meditates on her separation from fundamentalist Christianity and how she found love despite questioning her faith. " —Publishers Weekly, starred review
Interrogating her own upbringing in an evangelical community, Stephanie Stalvey weaves a story of faith, alienation, romance and acceptance, in this beautifully painted graphic memoir.
Stephanie grew up in an evangelical community where love and obedience were overlapping themes. In this world, sin was inevitable, her body was a temptation, and desire was dangerous. Her own thoughts could not be trusted, because she was only saved if she believed the "right things" about God.
But as she grew, built a life of her own, and fell in love with a young seminarian named James, the complexities of the human experience became impossible to ignore. Was God truly so exacting and judgmental? Could faith exist beyond these rigid borders? Could love be both passionate and pure? Her connection to James—honest, caring and sensual—became a safe place for her worldview to expand. And when their son was born, she understood love in a whole new way… suddenly, everything was sacred, everything was in color.
Through striking prose and beautiful mixed media illustrations, Stalvey takes us on an emotional journey of faith, romance, motherhood and loss. With tenderness and honesty, she unravels the fear and guilt woven into her past, reclaims her sense of self, and shows us how to embrace a love that is healing, transformative, and wholly one's own.

Gareth Hinds for The Odyssey: A Graphic Novel
May 24 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Free
With bold imagery and an ear tuned to the music of Homer's epic poem, award-winning graphic artist Gareth Hinds reinterprets the ancient classic as it's never been told before. A New York Times bestseller, now in a sumptuous collectible edition with new cover design, gold foil, and stenciled edges.
"Gareth Hinds brings The Odyssey to life in a masterful blend of art and storytelling. Vivid and exciting, this graphic novel is a worthy new interpretation of Homer's epic." —Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series
Fresh from his triumphs in the Trojan War, Odysseus, king of Ithaca, wants nothing more than to return home to his family. Instead, he offends the sea god, Poseidon, who dooms him to years of shipwreck and wandering. Battling man-eating monsters, violent storms, and the supernatural seductions of sirens and sorceresses, Odysseus will need all his strength and cunning—and a little help from Mount Olympus—to make his way home and seize his kingdom from the schemers who seek to wed his queen and usurp his throne. Gareth Hinds masterfully reinterprets a story of heroism, adventure, and high action that has been told and retold for more than 2,500 years—though never quite like this.
Gareth Hinds is the creator of critically-acclaimed graphic novels based on literary classics, including Beowulf, The Odyssey, The Iliad, Romeo & Juliet, Macbeth, and POE: Stories and Poems." Gareth is a recipient of the Boston Public Library's "Literary Lights for Children" award. His books can be found in bookstores and English classrooms across the country, and his illustrations have appeared in such diverse venues as the Society of Illustrators, the New York Historical Society, and over a dozen published video games.
