“Alienated” #5

By Kobi Bordoley | Aug 20, 2020 | Reviews

The penultimate installment of “Alienated” crackles with power. Spurrier’s writing commands the page. Wildgoose’s illustrations capture moments of pain and grace with equal strength. May’s colors set the mood–chaotic and anxious–while Campbell’s letters add character throughout. “Alienated” #5 is that rare comic in which the total story really is more than the sum of its […]

By Joe Skonce | Aug 20, 2020 | Reviews

It’s not necessarily a new thing to explore the idea that while superheroes have a rigid “no killing” policy, there is certainly plenty of collateral damage in keeping the city safe from villains and criminals. The idea that even with the best of intention, superheroes aren’t able to control what happens to everyone. Innocent people […]

“Star Wars Legacy: War”

By Jaina Hill | Aug 20, 2020 | Reviews

Sometimes the inner workings of comic book companies is too arcane, even for someone who follows this stuff day in and day out. I cannot properly explain why “Star Wars Legacy” was prematurely canceled after 50 issues, only to be brought back for a final 6 issue miniseries. Nor can I explain why that miniseries […]

By Christopher Chiu-Tabet | Aug 20, 2020 | Previews

We are pleased to present an exclusive preview of Amy Chu’s translation of Zhou […]
