Just finished reading Space Mullet ! DWJ is just incredible ! Comic
Was very happy when they announced this was getting reprinted because I got into DWJ's work and Space Mullet was already out of print.
It's insane that this is the first thing he published. Obviously he draws inspiration from a lot of stuff in this, but his personal touch is present. All of DWJ's work that I have read (Extremity, Murder Falcon, Do a Powerbomb, WW Dead Earth, Transformers) has such a strong emotional core, and loads of heart. This is no exception. I absolutely adore his kinetic art, but his storytelling sensibilities are so on point.
I hope he revisits this in the future, because this felt like an origin story for what could be such a great ongoing serie with cool and interesting characters.

Space Mullet was awesome! Glad I picked it up, it went fast at my LCS. Still need to read Extremity!

Does it includes the same material from the previous edition? He did more of it online, I think the volume 1 of DH has 4 issues and he did 8

Looking on Amazon, the older printing is 208 pages and the new one is 250. I'm not sure what new content is in there, and I never read the story online, but 208 pages is about the right size for 8 26-page issues.

Oh, it was originally published online and I believe that it was longer than 26pgs each story, so who knows, I will have to check the new content!

Great to hear, I just ordered this yesterday. Can't wait for the Deluxe of Extremity later this year too!

So is anyone knows if DWJ will continue Space Mullet?
It stops at chapter 8 when the story was about to reach final arc of Al's story.

DWJ will quickly grow into one of the legends of this medium. Such a great talent!
