“Justice League” #7

By Gustavo S Lodi | Sep 6, 2018 | Reviews

Comics are fun. They are stories of the fantastic, of heroes that are paragon’s of justice and villain who are demonstrations of doom. And yet, sometimes writers, artists, and even readers, forget the possibilities of the medium and start being content on telling stories that can be just as well conveyed in another shape or […]

Pick of the Week: “Cosmic Ghost Rider” #3

By Christopher Egan | Sep 6, 2018 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Once every so often, a comic book arc comes out that is unexpected and bizarre, but surprisingly welcome. Now, “Cosmic Ghost Rider” is that story and it is so much fun. I don’t know what we did to deserve such an excellent action adventure coated in inky black humor, but I won’t question it. Some […]

“Dark Angels of Darkness”

By Tom Shapira | Sep 4, 2018 | Reviews

Sometimes being cool is enough. Al Gofa’s graphic novel, an awesome mish-mash of video games, manga and feverish childhood daydreams brought on by sugar-rush, is all-surface tale of super-warriors taking on one another in progressively more ridiculous fight scenes and “Beowulf” inspired boastful introductions. As every character and scene sets out to top the previous […]

“The New World” #2

By Jonathan O'Neal | Aug 31, 2018 | Reviews

The premier issue of “The New World” was a whirlwind of ideas and kaleidoscopic colors, presenting a unique future world not appearing in the usual dystopian playbook. I found it dazzling. Aleš Kot’s scripting and Tradd Moore’s clean artwork made for a future imagined by Stanley Kubrick and decorated by Willy Wonka. Most second issues […]

“Lex Luthor/Porky Pig Special” #1

By Jaina Hill | Aug 30, 2018 | Reviews

After “Batman/Elmer Fudd” became the best comic of 2017, there was no doubt that DC was going to mash-up more Looney Tunes and superhero characters. Few could have predicted that Porky Pig and Lex Luthor would be next on the list. On the surface, the two have little in common, but Mark Russell crafts a […]

Pick of the Week: “Extermination” #2

By Gustavo S Lodi | Aug 30, 2018 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

“Extermination” started very strong only two weeks ago, setting up the story that will, allegedly, return the original five X-Men to their point in the timeline. Strong character moments, surprising reveals, and beautiful art were the highlights then and, while those same aspects remain on this second entry, they do lose some of their impact […]
