“Star-Lord” #5

By | Mar 31, 2017 | Reviews

The earth doesn’t shatter during the fifth entry to Chip Zdarsky and Kris Anka’s ‘Earth-Lord’ arc. Nonetheless, Star-Lord keeps on rocking in the post-community service world. There’s rollicking action, a tight little caper, a couple of laughs and a whole lot of heart. What more do you need… I guess if you do need more, […]

“Inhumans Prime” #1

By | Mar 31, 2017 | Reviews

You can’t have any more Inhumans until you figure out what to do with the Inhumans you’re given. At least that seems to be the message being sent with “Inhumans Prime” #1, a sort of prologue/season premiere of the upcoming new Inhumans books, headlined by “Royals” #1. This issue does a pretty good job at […]

By | Mar 30, 2017 | Reviews

In our dreams, we often see fantastic visions as our brains process the sensory information it received while awake.

“Funeral For a Friend”

By | Mar 28, 2017 | Reviews

Last month, I revisited “The Death of Superman” for the first time in quite some time. I can honestly say that I haven’t read its follow up, “Funeral for a Friend,” since it was originally published, when I was ten years old. I was interested in seeing just how the fallout was handled, and how […]

“Bloodshot: Reborn” #0

By | Mar 24, 2017 | Reviews

“Bloodshot: Reborn” #0 exists in an odd space. Do not be fooled by the numerical designation, this is not the beginning but the end…again. Like I said, an odd space. For all intents and purposes, Jeff Lemire’s overall run of his “Bloodshot: Reborn” arc ended with the final issue of miniseries, “Bloodshot: USA.” But it […]

By | Mar 24, 2017 | Reviews

With the end of “Witchblade” in November 2015, the tale of the Thirteen Artifacts seemed to have come to a conclusion with the title that brought them about.

“Anno Dracula: 1895 – Seven Days in Mayhem” #1

By | Mar 24, 2017 | Reviews

I don’t know why I haven’t read Kim Newman’s Anno Dracula. I’ve always wanted to; it combines my love of alternate history with my love of a good old fashioned Victorian monster mash. Then it turns into a long-form vampire epic, following bloodsucking immortals through the centuries of history. That all sounds like my jam! […]

“Doom Patrol” is finally getting ready to close out the series debut arc with issue #5. Seeing the first few chapters naturally come together and progress towards closing out the big debut arc has been an absolute joy thus far, but this series has an awful lot of plot threads and concepts to juggle.

“Iron Fist” #1

By | Mar 23, 2017 | Reviews

Marvel has timed the release of the new “Iron Fist” comic well, coinciding right with the release of its Netflix show. What no one anticipated, however, was the show’s poor critical reception. Fortunately, we’re not here to talk about the show – Jess is doing a great job at that – so we can see […]
