In this new volume, Lemire and Jacinto attempt to explore the layered psyche of Robert Reynolds, discussing how addiction and obsession can lead to very dark paths.

“Man of Steel” #4

By | Jun 21, 2018 | Reviews

As the weekly series by Bendis and some of comics best artists reaches its second half, it becomes absolutely clear that the writer has an unique and true voice for Superman and that the artist choice for each issue is more than a “who’s who” on DC’s roster. Written by Brian Michael Bendis Illustrated by […]

“The Flash” #47

By | May 24, 2018 | Reviews

There have been many “heroes versus heroes” storylines from publishers over the last couple of years. While it is surely entertaining to see fan-favorite heroes going at it, those events can come up short if the motivations behind these differences are too contrived or not meaningful enough. With that in mind, it is certainly a […]

“A Walk through Hell” #1

By | May 17, 2018 | Reviews

“A Walk through Hell” #1, the new book by Garth Ennis in collaboration with Goran Sudzuka, is another prime example of what the famous writer can do to surprise its audience.

“Justice League No Justice” #1

By | May 10, 2018 | Reviews

A new event from DC, so closely released to the end of “Metal,” could easily earn the tag of more-of-the-same. However, what Snyder, Williamson, and Tynion with artist Francis Manapul have done, is anything but. This is how you keep the excitement after a successful storyline alive, feeding into a broader publishing line and beyond. […]

“Infidel” #2

By | Apr 20, 2018 | Reviews

The haunting story of Aisha and her extended family continues with issue 2 of “Infidel,” as reality and the supernatural seemingly converge. Beyond the excellent script and art, what makes this sophomore issue (and series) so harrowing is how the real-world aspects of its horror are even stronger than any monster and ghoul that the […]

“Sideways” #3

By | Apr 12, 2018 | Reviews

“Sideways” #3 continues to explore and expand on the origin, characters, foes and supporting cast of Derek James. With an issue that does not slow down, it is hard to tell apart where the series is succeeding on creating a compelling new corner of the DC universe . . . or if it is only […]
