“Doom Patrol” #5

By | Mar 24, 2017 | Reviews

“Doom Patrol” is finally getting ready to close out the series debut arc with issue #5. Seeing the first few chapters naturally come together and progress towards closing out the big debut arc has been an absolute joy thus far, but this series has an awful lot of plot threads and concepts to juggle. With […]

Paul Cornell and Jimmy Broxton are getting the chance to build Vampirella from the ground up in a brand new ongoing series.

“Justice League of America” #2

By | Mar 10, 2017 | Reviews

While the promise of a new “Justice League of America” team by writer Steve Orlando and artist Ivan Reis has plenty of opportunity to be a sleeper hit, the two previous issues have not been able to reach that potential.

“John Carter: The End” #1

By | Feb 10, 2017 | Reviews

With no predisposition to the character and no lingering need for such a property to return so soon after a failed film, “John Carter: The End” still manages to be a welcomed minimalistic approach to a character who is about as interesting as his name suggests. The licensed property is plugged into a dystopian future, […]

“Transformers: Lost Light” #2

By | Feb 3, 2017 | Reviews

Even though a new status quo needs to be established for the main Lost Light team, the issue already thrusts Rodimus, Megatron and the full crew into an alternate reality.

“Optimus Prime” #3

By | Jan 27, 2017 | Reviews

“Optimus Prime” #3’s plot may be unfolding at a slower pace than readers may expect, but the series has seemingly found a nice groove with quiet-but-interesting character interaction.
