Modernist poets trapped in an Agatha Christie Murder Mystery. The Romantics gathering in Lake Geneva to resurrect the dead. What really happened during the fall of Rome. The Lucifer who was a nun, hearing Ananke's Black Death confession. As we approach the end, we start to see the full picture.
This one's odd in that it features a short story I really didn't like ("455 AD"), one I mostly liked, particularly in the latter half of it, largely due to the great writing ("1373 AD"), and another I half liked ("1831 AD"), again due to the writing.
The art in this book full of short stories is by and large pretty terrible. Andre Araujo's work in "455 AD" is a really bad start to a book of largely bad art, and does no favors to a story with rather bad writing, that ends nonsensically. Ryan Kelly's art in "1373 AD" bounces back and forth between being all right and good. Stephanie Hans' art in "1831 AD" makes an already kind of bland story a bit confusing, but the writing improves near the end and her art is at least pretty most of the time. "Sumer Loving" is cute, and Kris Anka's art is excellent as usual, if not his best work. The rest of the art is varying stages of meh. "13 Go Mad in Wiltshire" is a bit meh storywise, but the Kitty Curan and Larissa Zageris' art is pretty nice.
Overall, the writing is really hit and miss. I didn't find the funnies very funny, and a lot of it was confusing. It's important not to skip, though (at least "1831 AD"), because it's important later, sort of. ( )
Old Is the New New collects a series of one-shots and side stories: stories about historical Pantheons, ones about the current Pantheon set before (or early in) the series, and noncanonical gags. There are lots of talented guest artists and writers here, but boy do I wish I cared about this series more.
I actually like most of this volume. I liked the history special more, maybe because I got who most of them were based off. The holiday special felt kind of pointless. Interesting to see what the last volume is going to be like. ( )
I must say this one was my favorite. The extra star was for the awesome ones at the end in which different art was used and also in the style of Scooby as well as other comics. Nothing really from the main story in this one. All different stories from the past with different gods during other times. ( )
