“New Gods” #6

By Matt Lune | Aug 28, 2017 | Reviews

When considering the Fourth World Saga as a whole, one of the purest examples of the messages about love and war, about generational conflict, and of the effects of battle on a person’s body and mind, can be found in “New Gods” #6. It’s famously one of Jack Kirby’s favorite issues, and it’s a personal […]

Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 8/23/17

By Multiversity Staff | Aug 28, 2017 | Reviews

There is a lot to cover on Wednesdays. We should know, as collectively, we read an insane amount of comics. Even with a large review staff, it’s hard to get to everything. With that in mind, we’re back with Wrapping Wednesday, where we look at some of the books we missed in what was another […]

“Star Wars Doctor Aphra Annual” #1

By Jaina Hill | Aug 25, 2017 | Reviews

I must confess, I haven’t been a regular reader of Kieron Gillen’s Doctor Aphra series. That’s one of the things that makes the annual so impressive. With a passing knowledge and enthusiasm for Aphra and her friends, I had no trouble following this one-shot Star Wars adventure. Gillen, along with his art team, take us into the heart of […]

“Bettie Page” #2

By Kate Kosturski | Aug 25, 2017 | Reviews

The pinup model that launched a thousand (if not more) fantasies through the 20th century is back at work in front of the camera (after being kidnapped for a strange human sacrifice ritual) doing what she does best – bad B-movies. Bettie’s taken a break from the Rocket Mill but still remains friends with her […]

“Daredevil” #25

By Alexander Jones | Aug 25, 2017 | Reviews

With the advent of a huge milestone issue like “Daredevil” #25, the full creative team on the book has a responsibility to go as big as possible. The last installment brought a new aspect to the forefront of the Supreme that most readers likely never considered before in the context of “Daredevil.” The idea of […]

“Shirtless Bear-Fighter” #3

By John Schaidler | Aug 25, 2017 | News, Reviews

With a name like “Shirtless Bear-Fighter,” there’s never been any mystery about this book’s central premise. The cover literally says it all. But if you still need to know what all the fuss is about, “Shirtless Bear-Fighter” #3 is an action-packed, funny and surprisingly tender example of why this book works so well. Written by […]

“The Dying and the Dead” #5

By Kent Falkenberg | Aug 24, 2017 | Reviews

Here we go again: Jonathan Hickman and Ryan Bodenheim have deemed fit to grace us with another installment of their slow-trickling epic. And at this rate, we’ll all be either dying or dead before the series finally closes out. But those are tomorrow’s problems, I guess. For now, is this issue worth the wait? The […]

War Mother Featured

“War Mother” #1

By Elias Rosner | Aug 24, 2017 | Reviews

Arriving on the scene amidst a blaze of fire and fury comes “War Mother,” the highly anticipated and highly demanded (if the solicits can be believed) spin-off character from one of Valiant’s many micro-events “4001 AD.” But who is this war mother and, for those (like myself) who missed out on the “4001 AD” tie-ins, […]

“Generation Gone” #2

By Rowan Grover | Aug 24, 2017 | Reviews

Ales Kot has penned some seriously thought provoking indie comics as of late, but none felt as profound or well-executed as the first issue of “Generation Gone”. The idea of hacker-spawned superbeings is such a compelling one, and with André Lima Araújo on artwork, the idea becomes fully realised in beautifully pencilled art. Let’s see […]

Pick of the Week: “Nightwing: The New Order” #1

By Michael Mazzacane | Aug 24, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

By its cover, “Nightwing: The New Order” looks like a certain kind of book and to a degree it is. But it sets itself up to potentially be more than its contemporaries and covers make it out to be.

“Relish: My Life in the Kitchen”

By Mark Tweedale | Aug 22, 2017 | Reviews

“Relish: My Life in the Kitchen,” Lucy Knisley’s celebration of food, family and friends, is a book I love to revisit, and since a new chocolate shop just opened up outside my building, I figure it’s time to crack it open again.

It’s another Triple Feature from the “Bitch Planet” world! While we await issue #11 (which is in production!) with (hopefully) the resolution from the cliffhanger of Issue #10, we have another set of short stories set in the Bitch Planet world, eerily speaking (as they always do) to our current geopolitical climate.

A trinity of trinities! Zatanna, John Constantine and Deadman have been called to help Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman with a possessed Red Hood, and when possessed Bizarro and Artemis show up too, there are more than enough darker contrasts to our main cast in this issue.

“Nightwing” #27

By Devon Browning | Aug 18, 2017 | Reviews

With an iconic character such as Nightwing, that one could argue is the heart and soul of DC Comics, it’s to no surprise that the former Boy Wonder currently has one of the best comic teams of both writer and artists working together in the Rebirth series. “Nightwing” #27 is but another issue where the […]
