The Chronicles of Shazam: “Shazam! The Monster Society of Evil”

By Brian Salvatore | Sep 25, 2020 | Columns

I was originally going to save this for last in the ‘Chronicles of Shazam,’ because this may well be my favorite short Shazam story. It was also an incredible coup for DC to get Jeff Smith (“Bone”) to work with them on a miniseries, and could’ve been a way to launch this character, forever a […]

“Miles to Go” #1

By Kobi Bordoley | Sep 25, 2020 | Reviews

“Miles to Go” #1 takes what could have been a collection of usual crime tropes–killer with a haunted past, wayward hero with nothing to lose–and turns them into a subtle, well crafted story. “Miles to Go” #1 is a masterful first issue, and successfully marries moments of intrigue and violence with quieter, more low-key scenes.

Lucy Sullivan has brought the spectre of depression to live by infecting every aspect of comics with its influence, from the art style to the layouts to […]
