Review: King Conan: The Hour of the Dragon #1

By | May 31, 2013 | Reviews

Brian Wood is writing a strangely enjoyable off-beat sort of take on Conan the Cimmerian over in the ongoing title, but if you’re pining for a classic sword and sorcery comic that would be fit for the weather-worn and yellowing pages of an heirloom title, then look no further than the latest “King Conan” miniseries.

Review: X-Men #1

By | May 30, 2013 | Reviews

Review: Dream Thief #1

By | May 16, 2013 | Reviews

John Lincoln is a bastard. For his sins (and our enjoyment), Jai Nitz and Greg Smallwood put him through the wringer in a story that is both incredibly imaginative and well-executed.

Review: Justice League of America #3

By | May 10, 2013 | Reviews

With “Justice League of America”, Geoff Johns has been looking to give some B-level heroes a chance to shine and a title that can sell well with them in it. How much the book has succeeded thus far depends on how tired you are of superheroes going at each others throats rather than the bad […]
