The fourth volume of the wonderfully awesome Elephantmen series, Questionable Things continues to ask questions....and does answer some as well. In fact, just about every question that I'd asked since I began reading this series was answered in "Q.T.", including a "hint" at possibly the biggest question of them all (going way back to the ending of Elephantmen: Concrete Jungle, released several years ago), does Sahara really die?
The impressive thing about this volume is the amount of different artists that contributed their work (especially in Issue #25, which had 26 different artists). The amazing thing that makes it even more impressive is that they didn't lose the tone or feel of the story! That is a very difficult thing to accomplish when you have so many artists working on the same project (I've seen books with just a couple artists lose the feel and tone of the story). Great job by all the artists involved in Questionable Things...and of course, to the mastermind of it all, Richard Starkings.

Elephantmen: Dangerous Liaisons (Review)
Citizen's Grade: Awesome.
If you are not already aware, Elephantmen is the best comic book being published today! Period. I know fans of other books may argue, and I myself do have some favorite characters that would rank higher....but in issue after issue the Writing is brilliant, the Artwork is breathtaking, the Lettering is top-of-the-industry, and the Inking is perfect for the look and feel of this series....EVERY SINGLE ISSUE, EVERY BOOK!!! When you purchase the volumes you just want to set them on your bookshelf and admire them for hours! Then invite your friends to come look (but DON'T TOUCH!) as well. I can not recommend this title enough, IT IS the best overall title being published today! Period.
