Target: China Mi?ville?s Dial H, Vol.1: Into You. Art by Mateus Santolouco and David Lapham. Collecting issues #1-6 and #0 Profile: Comics, Mystery, Science Fiction, Fantasy Like many of China Mi?ville?s novels, Dial H tries to alter the way readers look at its genres. It uses the tropes of superheroics to tell an entirely different kind of story with a lot of style and unique take on the world of DC Comics. It is a quintessentially Mi?ville story, where the rules have to be learned, or re-learned at the very least. And in spite of all that, it stays true to the comic book canon and is a huge breath of fresh air in a space that has been stagnant for a while. I am a huge fan of Mi?ville?s ability to turn the boundaries of genre into creative playgrounds and Dial H doesn?t disappoint in this respect. It is a brilliantly rendered series that taps into the ?weird? space that DC has been attempting to capitalize on in their ?New 52? reboot. It isn?t as grand in scope or story as some of the great graphic novels, like Sandman , but it bridges the gap between a superhero story and a ?larger? adventure. Read the rest of the review?
