FANTASY THEATER #15
by J. Kevin Carrier and company

($2.00 from J. Kevin Carrier/ 8913 Eldora Dr./ Cincinnati, OH / 45236 USA. Web: members.aol.com/fantasytheater)

Reviewed by Steve Keeter

Scott McClung starts off this issue of J. Kevin Carrier's exciting anthology comic with a bang — both of the gorgeous full-color covers are by him, and both are knockouts. There are three stories within, all stylishly illustrated by J. Kev. The best is a team-up super-hero adventure, featuring Lady Spectra, Sparky, and the Reaper... and this one really pulls out the stops. Not only does the trio have to battle nazi zombies, but also flying insectoid monstrosities, a vampire, and traitorous FBI agents! Plenty of thrills, chills, and action in this one. The remaining strips demonstrate a much lighter, and wryly humorous touch... as a barbarian is tricked into sleeping with an ogre-woman, and the Grim Reaper attempts to bargain with Phantos, who is trapped in a shadowy dimension. The humor lies in the denouements of both yarns, especially the Phantos tale. Also featured is a lettercol, which includes drawings of Kevin's characters by Jim Pack, Will Terrell, and others. Fantasy Theater #15 is another fine issue of one of our favorite small press comics, a title that never fails to deliver the goods.
