The Exterminators Vol 1 TPB
I like Tony Moore's art. The story is stilling setting the scene. We have super cockroaches, a corporation doing unknown experiments, cockroaches, a parolee hero/narrator, lots of references to the line between nature and man, and allusions to some greater scheme. It is good enough to keep reading, but I haven't decided if its good enough to recommend to others.

I Am Legend
I've seen the ads for the Will Smith movie coming out and it seems like an alien bump in the night horror thing or some other device like that. I'm in the store I see this book, it claims it is related to the movie, it's thick, Steve Niles of 30 Days of Night is involved and it is about vampires. So confused. I pick it up. I find out it is an adaptation of a novel by Richard Matherson. Wikipedia says this is the third movie adaptation of it.

I haven't finished it yet. So far I like it. I'm getting into the story and don't want to put it down to eat dinner and watch Smallville season 6 on DVD. I've thumbed ahead and it seems to have a lot of places to still go. It's mostly in the guys head because there is no one to talk to. That part is a little rough becuase it feels to literal of a novel and not a graphic novel.

I see some parallels to the scenes in the trailer. I noticed the movie relocated the story from the LA region to NY. I have yet to see jets or people feeling anything yet so I'm expected a flashback or movie liberty.
