Review: Justice League Dark #14

By | Nov 30, 2012 | Reviews

Review: Teen Titans #14

By | Nov 30, 2012 | Reviews

Scott Lobdell’s “Teen Titans” has gone from being fairly light book to stumbling through an uninteresting and angst-filled crossover in ‘The Culling’ and struggling to find its way after.

Review: Bedlam #2

By | Nov 30, 2012 | Reviews

This highly-anticipated series has already turned some heads — and some stomachs — with its first issue, which was, for one, enormous, for two, unconventional, and for three, intricate and quite disturbing.

Review: Chew #30

By | Nov 30, 2012 | Reviews

Whenever people who aren’t really into comics ask me for an easy recommendation, “Chew” is always a go-to pick. It’s a fun, light-hearted read full of great comedic timing and a wild premise, and it even got me to go out and buy a beets just to see what the fuss was all about. Yes, […]

The second miniseries of the New 52 to focus on a once and future Freedom Fighter, “Phantom Lady” (titled on the cover, but not in official literature, as “Phantom Lady and Doll Man”) acts as an origin story for these characters, telling a self contained tale that establishes the characters and their place in the […]

Review: Planetoid #4

By | Nov 29, 2012 | Reviews

With only one issue left in this thrilling and gorgeous miniseries, things are certainly coming to a point in “Planetoid”. And while this issue does have a few flaws to its name, Garing’s storytelling and character design exceed their usual high standard, making this the most absorbing and engaging issue yet. Written and Illustrated by […]
