Panthea Obscura Reviewed Today on Newsarama!

Bulletin:

I have a couple of cool bits of news I wanted to share!

My new self-published comic book, Panthea Obscura, with art by Argentinian artist Juan Carlos Quattordio, got a great review on Newsarama.com. It's about halfway down this page: http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=110824

Here's the review:

"Panthea Obscura: Deifornication #1: Brought to you by Mike Luoma, the guy who did the sublime Holy ____!: Or Pat Robertson Is The Anti-Christ, Panthea Obscura trades heavily on two trademarks that Luoma established in that earlier book: a fine eye for cultural weirdness, and lacerating humor. Once there were gods, and now the gods are suffering a bit of an existential crisis. Humanity’s kind of moved on, the and the Gods consider their role. What they decide is hilariously appropriate for the graphic form, and Luoma’s given himself a place from which to rain barbs down upon politics, religion, and comics itself. The art by Juan Carlos Quattordio is a bit rough, but succeeds on its appropriately indie-bred scrappiness. This is one to watch."

Cool!

And Amazon.com just added my new novel, Vatican Ambassador! Better still, they sent out the following email (also cool!):
