October 22, 2008
"Sax Raker and the case of the man who wasn't there" would be the book title' if this were an ongoing series of novellas, like Aetherics Mechanics' most immediate inspiration source, Sherlock Holmes. Who this man really turns out to be... Well, that would be telling, wouldn't it? It's a brilliant little crime story, after all. Sax is basically Sherlock Holmes, and the down-to-earth, somewhat cynical... more

| 3. Warren Ellis' Scars (New Printing) |
|
By: Warren Ellis, Jacen Burrows
Publisher: Avatar Press
August 27, 2008
Its a tough call, I love warren Ellis and Burrow's creations, but this story doesn't suit Burrows style of artwork sadly. The story is pretty unoriginal, but a solid cop story altogether. However it could of been better in many respects... more

| 5. Planetary Vol. 1: All Over the World and Other Stories |
|
By: Warren Ellis
Publisher: WildStorm Productions
March 01, 2000
Along with '30 days of night', this series is something I can compare to Gaiman, Moore or Keith in their prime. Stories are sometimes, like someone said, underdeveloped, an homage to other titles, or simply unclear, but they tend to get better and better with each issue. Artwork is by John Cassaday and it should implicate that, if you like clean, realistic, yet recognisable and original artwork, GET... more

| 6. Fell Vol. 1: Feral City | 
|
By: Warren Ellis
Publisher: Image Comics
May 23, 2007
Not for the weak at heart, this graphic novel is, with freakangels and Transmetropolitan, one of Ellis' masterpieces: the "feral city" is unrelievedly gloomy, the stories are gruesome, but Fell doesn't lose a sardonic, acid sense of humour. One can sense an innermost vulnerabiluty,and we know he has, like other characters of Ellis' stories a past to keep hidden and a secret we aren't meant to know... more

| 7. Ocean | 
|
By: Warren Ellis

June 09, 2009
This is one of the best graphic novels I've read in some time. It's pure science fiction, set on a UN research station orbiting the Jovian moon of Europa. Under the carbon dioxide ice, there's a free-water ocean, and in the deeps of that ocean the researchers discover a vast number of sarcophagi containing alien bodies that have been in suspended animation for a billion years. But there are also robotic... more

Publisher: Avatar Press
February 17, 2010
Its really 3.5 stars, but I'm rounding up 'cause I'm sick of being so negative.
You'll have to excuse me, but I have a hard time reviewing this work without reviewing it in context of Ellis as a writer.
Warren Ellis writes Warren Ellis stories. You're either a fan or you're not. All Ellis stories have X amount of things that are in every one of them and these all fall into three... more

| 10. HOTWIRE: Requiem for the Dead Volume 1 |
|
By: Steve Pugh
Publisher: Radical Publishing
June 15, 2010
Once you get past the fact that our protagonist is an unnaturally attractive, pixie-faced woman with the unlikely name "Hotwire," Requiem for the Dead is an innovative, beautifully drawn story with a lot of neat sci-fi stuff to say.
In one of the not-too-distant dystopian futures that Warren Ellis loves to write and rewrite for every one of his visions, nonliving souls cloud the streets... more
