When your day is not complete without reading a book report about a crazy 19th century vampire novel written by an even crazier 19th century French man, tor.com is there.

Pure Beautiful Trash



I have a new post over at Tor.com on the comic book Dragon Chiang. It is one of my guilty pleasures, and a comic that describes itself as: “18-WHEELIN’, CHINESE-COMMUNIST, TRUCK-DRIVIN’ ACTION!”

No joke.

"Long before Cormac McCarthy discovered The Road, Dragon Chiang was its disciple.

"Possibly the single greatest one-issue comic book series ever put to paper, Dragon Chiang is the rarest of all things: perfect beautiful trash. Tim Truman and Tim Bradstreet got it right the first time and decided to quit while it was perfect. That it’s a comic book relic from the Cold War shouldn’t be held against it. From start to finish, Dragon Chiang is the best post-apocalyptic Chinese communist trucker action movie you are ever going to see."

Enjoy.
