By Frida Keränen | Mar 6, 2019 | Reviews

When Batman supposedly died about a decade ago, nobody was surprised to see him come back after a while. That didn’t mean fans weren’t excited to see how his return would happen, creating various theories and trying to connect the dots in Grant Morrison’s Batman mega-epic.

“Mechaboys”

By Matthew Garcia | Mar 4, 2019 | Reviews

James Kochalka stretches the truth like a rubber band in his graphic novel, “Mechaboys.” On one hand, it’s an autobiographical story, centered around two friends in the waning days of high school.

“Star Trek: The Q Conflict” #2

There are some fandom conversations that are stalwart, but dumb. I’m talking the likes of “who would win in a fight, Superman or Goku?” (The answer is that they would team up and have a really nice friend date.) “Star Trek: The Q Conflict” is based on one such question. In this case: “Who would […]

“The Silencer” #14

By Michael Mazzacane | Mar 1, 2019 | Reviews

The New Age of Heroes line has had a 90s Image, or in DC parlance “New Blood,” feel to them. From these new heroes being clearly inspired by well known archetypes, to an emphasis on the artist role. This new age hasn’t taken the comics world by storm, but with “The Silencer” #14, writer Dan […]

“Fantastic Four” #7

Valiant Comics may have been quieter than their relaunch these last few years, but by no means have they stopped producing quality material.
