| 1. Suicide Squad: From the Ashes | 
| By: John Ostrander
Publisher: DC Comics
September 02, 2008
John Ostrander's 80 run on the Suicide Squad was ground-breaking in it's use of realistic story lines and dark characters. When the Suicide Squad went on a mission people died. The foes were just as likely to be drug lords or terrorists as aliens or supervillains.
But more than the body count or politics, the series worked because the characters were very well realized and did not fit... more

| | 2. Spectre, The: Crimes and Punishments | 
| By: John Ostrander, Tom Mandrake
Publisher: DC Comics
October 08, 1993
The Spectre is a DC character who was early on subjected to what I like to call the apotheosis of comic superheroes. The most obvious example of this is Superman, who was created as a sort of generic strongman bully in the '30s and evolved into a cosmic messiah by the '70s. The Spectre was the ghost of tough-as-nails cop Jim Corrigan sent back from the afterlife with a mission from God ("You shall... more

| | 5. Star Wars: Darkness |
| By: John Ostrander, Jan Duursema, Ray Kryssing, John Ostrander
Publisher: Dark Horse
August 02, 2002
Another outstanding graphic novel by John Ostrander. Again, the theme is Quinlan Vos and his Padawan, Aayla Secura. As with Twilight, which introduced Vos, an excellent story of how he tries to remember himself and regain control after his memory was wiped by a drug called Glitteryll (I believe it's a form of Spice). Vos is dispatched by the Jedi Council to Kiffex, a prison world near Kiffu, Vos's... more

| | 8. Honor and Duty (Star Wars) |
| By: John Ostrander, C.P. Smith, Luke Ross, Jasen Rodriguez, Steve Firchow
Publisher: Dark Horse
May 17, 2006
A nicely written side story of the Star Wars saga. This gives the reader a view of things for the view of individuals not normally seen or heard from, unless Darth Vader is killing them. Good quality graphics and a nice flow of the dialogue. It would be a good addition to your Star Wars collection because it shows that there were others involved and how their upbringing, duty, honor and family affected... more

| | 9. GrimJack: Killer Instinct | 
| By: John Ostrander, Tim Truman
Publisher: IDW Publishing
November 23, 2005
The early scoop on Grimjack : how he got Munden's, among other things. Some more great work here. I had been waiting for this for a hell of a long time. Hard to believe that we actually have new Grimjack work. Vampire assassins, and all the other crazy and nasty stuff that happens in Cynosure is again to be seen here, thankfully!

| | 10. Last Stand on Jabiim (Star Wars: Clone Wars, Vol. 3) |
| By: Haden Blackman, Brian Ching, John Ostrander, Jan Duursema
Publisher: Dark Horse
March 17, 2004
Jedis are great and all, but I really enjoy the war aspect of this series. Vol 1 was good, Vol 2 started really picking up in the last section, and Vol 3 really gets to it--War! Its the volumes like this one that make me wish they had a series devoted to Clone Troopers, Republic Commandos, and ARCs (esp Alpha). Good inking and artwork. Straight-forward plot, almost near constant action, and... more
