“Magnus” #1

By Alexander Jones | Jun 8, 2017 | Reviews

The idea of a new “Magnus” Robot Fighter series is enticing, especially as Dynamite has a series starring the character in entirely new context from the Magnus introduced to readers a few monts ago in “The Sovereigns”. Publisher Dynamite Entertainment decided to gender-swap the character for the heroes’ ongoing series. With so many comics and […]

Pick of the Week: “The Flintstones” #12

By Kent Falkenberg | Jun 8, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

In a different year, “The Flintstones” running a full twelve months as DC’s – or, for that matter, most any other publishers’s – sharpest satire might stand to give you pause. But the fact is, this hasn’t been any other year. And that’s just made Mark Russell and Steve Pugh’s work all the more prescient. […]

“The Legend of Wonder Woman” (1986)

By Matthew Garcia | Jun 6, 2017 | Reviews

In 1986, Trina Robbins became the first woman to draw Wonder Woman, over 40 years after the character was originally created. “The Legend of Wonder Woman” followed the events of the mega-crossover, “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” DC’s attempt to consolidate their multiverse and was meant to serve as a bridge between the former Wonder Woman, […]

By Multiversity Staff | Jun 5, 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 […]

Hadrian's Wall 7 Featured

“Hadrian’s Wall” #7

By John Schaidler | Jun 2, 2017 | Reviews

The original premise of “Hadrian’s Wall” was killer: a locked-room murder mystery, on a space station far from earth, set to be investigated by an irascible detective with a crippling drug addition, a tortured past, and unresolved connections to both the murder victim and the prime suspect. Seven issues into to this limited eight issue […]

“Little Nightmares” #1

By Rowan Grover | Jun 2, 2017 | Reviews

Little Nightmares released as a PS4 game in April – a fact I didn’t know until recently. The charming indie-like game was met with warm reception, so although video games to comics isn’t always a smooth process, delving into a comic adaptation of this property was too good of an opportunity to pass up. Written […]

Wonder Woman featured

Wonder Woman

By Matthew Garcia | Jun 2, 2017 | Movies, Reviews

There’s a lot riding on Wonder Woman, perhaps an unfair amount. The narrative runs that Warner Bros. is taking a huge risk in having a female-led superhero movie directed by a woman, although they take these chances all the time, just with men. They’ve also given this a smaller budget than either Suicide Squad or […]

Trinity Annual 1 Featured

“Trinity Annual” #1

By Alexander Jones | Jun 2, 2017 | Reviews

The ongoing “Trinity” series is at an odd place right now inside the DC Universe as the book doesn’t always have the clearest sense of focus with lots of one-and-done instalments or larger story arcs that have little to do with each other. The series often forgets to flesh out each member of the cast […]

“Ladycastle” #4

By Jaina Hill | Jun 1, 2017 | Reviews

Sometimes, a comic gets by with an insanely imaginative premise, an idea that would never be given a chance in any other medium. That’s not “Ladycastle,” a comic which subverts a few key fairy tale tropes (mostly relating to gender), but otherwise tells a pretty conventional story about knights, wizards, dragons, and tournaments. Over four […]
