Review: Mouse Guard: Legends of the Guard Vol. 2 #3

By | Sep 27, 2013 | Reviews

Review: Revival #14

By | Sep 27, 2013 | Reviews

For a while now, “Revival” has been the little comic that could. While it may not be garnering major praise like some other comics coming out of Image, it has quietly been telling a continuously solid story that has mixed horror with some genuinely poignant, human moments. Here, Tim Seeley and Mike Norton begin to […]

Review: The Wake #4

By | Sep 27, 2013 | Reviews

The last time we checked in with “The Wake”, the proceedings were intriguing but mystifying. Dr. Archer was on board a top secret underwater ghost rig, researching a mysterious fishman with a screeching call and a tendency toward making everyone hallucinate. Since then, we’ve gotten a bit more exposition, with the most important reveal being […]

Marvel Teases The End

By | Sep 27, 2013 | News

In the latest of the Phase Two teasers of Marvel NOW!, Marvel has released a teaser simply reading “THE END” with Dan Slott and Giuseppe Camuncoli attached. It’s a tough call as to what this is ostensibly referring to (whereas the “Rad!” tease was pretty easy to guess at). If I hadn’t looked at the creative […]
