“Britannia: We Who Are About to Die” #3

By | Jun 23, 2017 | Reviews

So much happens in this issue of “Britannia.” Most of it was awesome, but by the end I was sort of exhausted. Part of my thinks that the story could have been paced differently, but in the age of decompressed comics, “Britannia: We Who Are About to Die” #3 is refreshingly dense. Written by Peter […]

“Swordquest” #1

By | Jun 22, 2017 | Reviews

“Swordquest” burned through a ton of plot in the series’ prequel(ish) #0 chapter. I hope this first issue will be able to reintroduce the base concept of the series and really get the plot going for the comic as a whole. The first installment set up a very interesting premise and a bleak portrayal of […]

“Aquaman” #25

By | Jun 22, 2017 | Reviews

Dan Abnett’s Aquaman run has been serviceable for its run, treating the character with respect and giving him interesting conflicts. But it takes more than that to conflict with the public image this character has dragged around for so long. Stjepan Sejic, in that regard, is the missing element. Let’s see how this creative team […]

“The Amazing Spider-Man: Happy Birthday”

By | Jun 20, 2017 | Reviews

With Spider-Man: Homecoming on the horizon and a new era of Spider-Man movies dawning (and, hopefully, they won’t be immediately rebooted this time), it seemed fitting to look back at a story arc that defines Spider-Man for me. Back in the before times when Peter wasn’t an Avengers, before “Civil War” unmasked him and before […]
