Godland Celestial Edition Vol. 1
Friday, May 30th, 2008 running time 00:00
Godland Celestial Edition Volume 1 was the first iFanboy Book of the Month, but that was before the time of the Mini. Yet, the time has come.
Josh does a little make up homework, and reports on the first iFanboy Book of the Month: Godland Celestial Edition Vol. 1. Now, every book of the month gets a Mini, but back then, there was only the written review. Consider it rectified, because Godland is certainly a book worth talking about, with its fantastic and crazy story by Joe Casey, and incredible, mind-blowing art by Tom Scioli, this Image book not to be missed.
Look for the regular Pick of the Week Mini on Monday. It was delayed due to the comics coming out a day later this week.

But in the meantime. You will be able to enjoy the video the audio podcast of it and the Britain reviews it's like you don't have something to stop whining. Okay first ball. I'm I'm getting sick the -- Shouldn't do so in the meantime I have to come up with something have to do something if -- of the issues. All the times I'm cheating that's or doing you're there remember my first book of the month way back in February it was godly and celestial edition volume one like Joe Casey and Tom. Security steal -- I could check but that would be that would be -- be responsible you know this has never got the proper video many consumer -- I mean he's back and I thought. It's such a good book and if this gets people to take a look at that that would help other than so. You can go read the written review February that's back on there. But but for now let's let's talk about Thailand got land is a story about a superhero it's done in a Jack Kirby style. That's basically it -- goes to mars. The cosmic -- collective -- for the -- imbued him with strange cosmic powers that is there is. That the whole thing is done like lake old checkered comics it's cosmic it's big it's just big everything about big that's really like one of the really important things about they have. Just exceptional character designs in this book. One of the villains is battle crevice Basil crevice. Literally one of my favorite villains that's the new bill that you know and really long time he's floating head. In his -- disembodied head in the tank. In this space suit and basically he's like a drug addict evil person. He's he's he's very strange Maximus a giant alien dog. Thing and he comes to help -- march because obviously the reason -- got powers is because of something larger that he doesn't understand something bigger something god like something huge. And then Adam -- that family problems the public doesn't really like him that much famous astronaut. And and yeah they did this trust in his sister's. One of them is very helpful Netherlands rebellious in in the you know like. -- I think he's going to mount a book out so the dude is either schizophrenic or genius -- so that's good or or he should get help. On this is it's really artist I don't want to give a lot of way because and I don't know if I can explain it anyway but it was just. It's just this huge consequence if you think like the marvel characters like the internals or -- this in public those big. Huge characters that are sort of more Powell when meeting in the world they sometimes in Iraq and immortal that's that's going on in. And you know New York is under attack by giant pyramid and there's just it's it's wacky but it's like in kind of funny it kinda tongue in -- it's a really fun book the the celestial edition. Which is this big hardcover. Which is the first twelve issues is beautiful book it's like it's a great designing -- on the cover here. On it's just it's big and hefty nice pages it's a little bit oversized. I cannot recommend this book more because it's a lot of fun if you want more details these don't check out my review that was bought him what I'm a couple of months ago but the link to that on the page for the show. And that's all I hope you like it and then look for the pick of the week on Monday. And it it was back to normal hopefully."
