The beautiful thing about a trade paper back (TPB) is that once a series of comics have been collected together, the full scope of what was being created comes into view. When a comic series has been done well, a TPB stands as a pure testament of what a great creator can accomplish. Often, a book that you felt was pretty good becomes incredibly good in this perspective.
Super Human Resources (Not really Calm or Cool Just Collected: Super Human Resources Season One) sits comfortably in the aforementioned category. I had read these comics separately. I thought that they were very good. But recently I was sent the “Collected” edition and suddenly I find myself telling everyone about the book. It’s cohesive and funny and very original and I loved reading it in this singular, tight, all in one, format.
Ken Marcus’s writing for Super Human Resource along with his oddball sense of humor makes this comic a spot on perfect read. I’m so happy that I had a chance to re-read this book! Justin Bleep’s artwork is crazy-fun and the extra’s that are included with the TPB are great. You get a chance to check out Justin’s sketches for the issues along with fan art. Every page of this trade is loaded with inside jokes and fan-boy chuckles. There is way too much to love here and priced at a paltry $12.95, for 128 pages, this is killer deal.
If you love superhero comics than you have to read Super Human Resource.
