Review: The Hollows #1

By | Dec 14, 2012 | Reviews

Living high up in a city-state built in a tree, Craig Mayerik has never really come face-to-face with the people who live down below, and contend every day with the soul-sucking Hollows. But all that soon changes — with potentially life-changing consequences — in this very promising first issue from IDW. Written by Chris Ryall […]

Review: Point of Impact #3

By | Dec 13, 2012 | Reviews

A secret affair, a mysterious man, and now… a double murder. No, it’s not a crime comic circa 1940, it’s “Point of Impact” #3 from Image Comics, and now that it’s reached its penultimate issue the puzzle pieces are definitely coming together. Written by Jay Faerber Illustrated by Koray Kuranel It’s the penultimate issue of […]

Review: Bedlam #2

By | Nov 30, 2012 | Reviews

This highly-anticipated series has already turned some heads — and some stomachs — with its first issue, which was, for one, enormous, for two, unconventional, and for three, intricate and quite disturbing. This second issue follows a similar non-linear timeline but reads a little more smoothly as we become more in step with Fillmore’s daily […]

Review: Planetoid #4

By | Nov 29, 2012 | Reviews

With only one issue left in this thrilling and gorgeous miniseries, things are certainly coming to a point in “Planetoid”. And while this issue does have a few flaws to its name, Garing’s storytelling and character design exceed their usual high standard, making this the most absorbing and engaging issue yet. Written and Illustrated by […]

Multiversity Keeps It Real: Feynman

By | Nov 27, 2012 | Columns

The trouble with writing any feature on non-fiction comics is that it risks becoming a Jim Ottaviani column pretty fast. The man has written so many wonderful comics — chiefly about scientists and their discoveries — that his work could easily dominate any discussion of comics as historical or scientific teaching tools. And so, taking […]

Review: Comeback #1

By | Nov 22, 2012 | Reviews

This was one eagerly-anticipated comic, but thankfully (and it is Thanksgiving), it more than lives up to the hype. Time traveling framed by some vaguely noirish circumstances is a combination that has certainly been done before — particularly by Hollywood — but the way Brisson and Walsh present it here is far from stale. On […]

Review: Peter Peterfaust #7

By | Nov 15, 2012 | Reviews

If you consider yourself a fanzerfaust of Peter Panzerfaust (not even gonna apologize for that one), there’s no doubt you’ve been eagerly awaiting Tiger Lily’s appearance. Well, the wait is over, and she gets a hell of an entrance. (The overall issue ain’t too shabby either.) Written by Kurtis J. Wiebe Illustrated by Tyler Jenkins […]

Review: Harvest #4

By | Nov 9, 2012 | Reviews

I’ve already said plenty of good things about “Harvest”, so it may not be surprising that this issue gets another “Buy” rating from me. What is surprising is how completely fresh and compelling each issue in this series has been, and how that dire feeling of tension and guilt has never once let up. “Harvest” […]
