Summary: Just hilarious!
Review: Great collection of comics! My only peeve would be that the first of the six comics is kind of boring, but it really just sets up the characters. The other 5 are just hysterical, and parody role-playing games, the Matrix, Christmas, Cupid, and an amazingly spot-on parody of a Japanese Manga. Add to that a special section after the comics which includes some really incredible unused artwork from other artists, based on Scott's characters, and you've got a REALLY good value for less than $10.

Summary: Make Mine PvP
Review: I first stumbled onto PVP as a webcomic and was instantly addicted. Obviously when The Dork Ages came out, I was excited about being able to get the Dork Storm issues in one handy trade paperback. I couldn't put it down. "Funny" doesn't do it justice. For any fan, this is a must-buy.

Summary: Giving Something Back
Review: I have been reading the free comics at www.pvponline.com for a very long time now. Although Kurtz has flirted with the idea of micropayments and the like, the comic remains free. Instead, he trusts the community to support him. That is why I am getting The Dork Age.

Summary: PVP RULES!!
Review: I KNOW PVP RULES!!!If you haven't read this great strip before, you do not exist to me. I cannot wait to have my copy, since now I will have all of my favorite comic strips together in its printed majesty. This is a really good time for those who have never read it to pick it up and start. Scott can tell a really good story and has some of the most wonderful art can capture your heart. Skull has to be on of my favorite characters of all time, being a troll and all. There are so many good memories from reading PvP... Keep a look out for this book, and get it when it's out!

Summary: PvP now in convient bathroom form!
Review: Pvp was the first Webcomic I had ever started reading when I first browsed them 4 years ago. It has grown into a terrific series, and still makes me chuckle daily. These six issues of the dork storm series of comics condensed into one TPB is a great value and a must have for the PvP fan, and I would recommend it for anybody that enjoys comics. The comics poke fun at a variety of modern happenings, and somewhat revolve around video game and dork culture as a whole. Congratulations to Scott Kurtz on his success.

Summary: The first six issues of a great comic
Review: Scott Kurtz's wildly funny PVP is the best of the current crop of webtoons, those comic strips that never would have found distribution in a newspaper but thrive on the Internet. Kurtz did six issues of a comic book based on his strip for Dork Storm Press before moving over to Image Comics -- this paperback collects those six issues. Kurtz was still in the learning stage when he started this comic -- the first three stories are quite short, although entertaining. The third issue, a take on Manga and Anime, is particularly wild, but may be confusing for people not into that sort of thing. Starting with the fourth issue, the "PVP Christmas Special," Kurtz hit his stride. The Christmas story is a send-up of everything from "Miracle on 34th Street" to "It's a Wonderful Life," to "A Christmas Carol," with jokes from sources as various as Superman comics, the Battle of the Planets cartoon and Isaac Asimov. Issue five, a Matrix parody, pokes just as much fun at the current state of comic strips as it does of that movie, and the last story in the collection is a gut-busting yet oddly sweet tale about Skull the Troll trying to reunite estranged lovers Brent Sienna and Jade Fontaine. The book also gives us several pin-up pages and, for those of us who are into that sort of thing -- a roleplaying module that will allow you to game as the superhero characters the PVP crew plays in the comic. This is a great packaged and a great value for a pretty good price. PVP is a wonderful strip, and it's impossible for anyone with a heart not to find something to love in this collection.

Summary: Wonderful collection of comics
Review: The Dork Ages is a wonderful compilation of the PVP issues before Mr. Kurtz went with Image Comics. It's funny and will ease PVP fans/new readers into a state of laughter. From an anime spoof to a matrix parody, The Dork Ages is sure to tickle the dork's funny bone. Also watch for PVP at Large, the newest PVP volume.

Summary: A good collection
Review: This trade paperback collects the main stories from the first 6 issues of PVP that were originally published by Dork Storm Press. I own virtually everything that Scott Kurtz has done, including the 6 original issues, and still bought this book. It's too great to miss, and great to be able to read them all at once. The book also includes special items including art from the issues, inused art, and stats to use in playing a super-hero role-playing game using the characters. If you like the online comic, or have never heard of it, make sure to pick this book up!
