Review: The Woods #2

By | Jun 5, 2014 | Reviews

Our first jaunt into “The Woods” proved puzzling enough to leave us wanting more. And while we don’t learn a whole lot more this chapter, it goes without saying that most of the fun here is the mystery. That, and watching a diverse bunch of people try to sort it out. Written by James Tynion […]

Review: The Last Broadcast #1

By | May 22, 2014 | Reviews

Kicking off a seven-issue miniseries from Archaia, this first chapter of “The Last Broadcast” feels like two comics for the price of one.

Review: Shutter #2

By | May 15, 2014 | Reviews

Our first jaunt into the world of “Shutter” was an adventure and a half, with the scope and oddness of this universe definitely catching our attention. Things get even more esoteric in this second chapter, but there’s just enough emotion here to keep us grounded. Written by Joe Keatinge Illustrated by Leila Del Duca Kate […]

Review: EGOs #4

By | May 2, 2014 | Reviews

This (kind of) standalone issue wraps up the first arc of “EGOs” – and I say “kind of” because it’s still dense, featuring a quirky cast and referencing an already pretty extensive backstory. But if grand sci-fi tales with an emotional dimension are your cup of tea, you’d do well to jump on at this […]

At least, that’s the idea behind “Dream Police”, and this Image Comic executes a high concept with a lot of confidence. Written by J. Michael Straczynski Illustrated by Sid Kotian Dream […]

Review: The Saviors #4

By | Apr 25, 2014 | Reviews

This Image Comics title has been getting better and better, taking us deeper into a conspiracy where yes, malevolent reptilians are taking over the world. But the “how” and the “why” of it are still a mystery; and now, Tomas is alone in a strange place. Written by James Robinson Illustrated by J. Bone After […]
