Review: Amazing Spider-Man #687

By Gilbert Short | Jun 15, 2012 | Reviews

Spidey has gone to the ends of the earth, and now the adventure ends. It’s been an arc filled with twists and turns, and a few tricks, but now we’re going to take a look at the final battle between Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus! As a warning, there are some spoilers discussed! Written by Dan […]

Review: Before Watchmen: Silk Spectre #1

By David Harper and Brian Salvatore | Jun 15, 2012 | Reviews

Last week, we gave a near rave to “Before Watchmen: Minutemen.” Is it possible that one week later writer Darwyn Cooke and illustrator Amanda Conner could have topped it? Our Before Watchmen team of Brian and David tackle that idea below. Written by: Darwyn Cooke, Amanda Conner and Len Wein Illustrated by Amanda Conner and […]

Review: American Vampire: Lord of Nightmares #1

By Walt Richardson | Jun 15, 2012 | Reviews

Scott Snyder’s Eisner-nominated ongoing series has spawned yet another miniseries, this time tapping fan-favorite Batman artist Dustin Nguyen for artistic duties. Tired of drawing Batman, he was moved on to bat-men. I thought it was funny. Written by Scott Snyder Illustrated by Dustin Nguyen Hot on the heels of last year’s award-winning AMERICAN VAMPIRE miniseries, […]

Review: Grifter #10

By Brian Salvatore | Jun 14, 2012 | Reviews

More like Rob LOLfeld, amiright? This was the basic reaction when readers, myself included, heard that Rob Liefeld was taking over the creative control of three (3) DCnU books come May: “The Savage Hawkman,” “Deathstroke,” and “Grifter.” Many (again, myself included), predicted imminent cancellation, a retraction saying it was a joke, or an early Mayan […]

Review: Spider-Men #1

By Gilbert Short | Jun 14, 2012 | Reviews

It’s finally happened! After 12 years of having two universes that shared the same shelf space in the Marvel Multiverse, The Main Marvel Universe and the Ultimate Marvel Universe are meeting in this, the first issue of “Spider-Men!” Written by Brian Michael Bendis Illustrated by Sara Pichelli History is made as Ultimate Spider-Man Miles Morales […]

Valiant (Re)visions: Harbinger #1 [Review]

By David Harper and Chad Bowers | Jun 14, 2012 | Reviews

We’re a week late with this one, but we didn’t want to pass up the opportunity to talk about Joshua Dysart and Khari Evans’ new “Harbinger” #1 for Valiant Comics. So join my Valiant (Re)visions co-host Chad Bowers and myself as we chat about the relaunch of my favorite Valiant series of yesteryear. Written by […]

Looking at “Avengers vs. X-Men,” One Act In [Review]

By David Harper and Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 14, 2012 | Reviews

With last week’s “Avengers vs. X-Men” #5, everything changed and the first act of this mega event came to a close. It’s been a hotly debated title around Multiversity’s offices, so MC’s EIC Matt Meylikhov and Associate Editor David Harper teamed up to discuss what’s gone on so far. That discussion is below, and for […]

Brian Wood Joins The X-Men [Review]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 14, 2012 | Reviews

I was going to call this article “Two X-Men, One Wood,” but somehow that seemed like a bad idea. So this week sees two different X-Men books in two different universes get one single author: Mr. Brian Wood. Author of such MC favorites as “DMZ,” “Local” and “Channel Zero” (to name a few), this week […]

Review: Planetoid #1

By Walt Richardson | Jun 14, 2012 | Reviews

Science fiction was my first true love, and so I always try to pick up any new sci-fi comic that hits the stands. Of course, it doesn’t always happen — unfortunately, superhero comics get all the press, but that’s a topic that doesn’t belong in a review. While I hadn’t heard of “Planetoid” before it […]

Superman vs. The Elite Adds to an Already Epic Story [Movie Review]

By Gilbert Short | Jun 12, 2012 | Reviews

Warner Premiere and DC Entertainment are back with another movie from their DCUA series. Superman vs. the Elite is the fourteenth movie in the series. Let’s see how it stands up as an adaptation and as a standalone film. One of my favorite Superman stories of all time just so happens to be Joe Kelly, […]

Advance Review: The Massive #1

By Walt Richardson | Jun 11, 2012 | Reviews

A few months after the conclusion of “DMZ,” the first issue of Brian Wood’s newest creator-owned ongoing comes out this week from Dark Horse Comics. “DMZ” was a big hit among the Multiversity Comics writers — will “The Massive” receive the same massive enormous praise? Written by Brian Wood Illustrated by Kristian Donaldson In a […]

Review: Night Force #4

By Brian Salvatore | Jun 8, 2012 | Reviews

It’s hard to get mad at DC for trying to keep its living legends happy. Guys like Neal Adams, Marv Wolfman, George Perez, and Len Wein continue to do work for the company they helped build, and for their part, DC tries to throw them a bone here and there, usually in the form of […]

Review: Before Watchmen: Minutemen #1

By Brian Salvatore and David Harper | Jun 8, 2012 | Reviews

The first of the “Before Watchmen” miniseries has begun! Can Darwyn Cooke use his immense talents to make this comic more than just a marketing ploy? David and Brian know! Written and Illustrated by Darwyn Cooke “Little did we know that poor boy would lead to the end of us all.” Plus: Don’t miss the […]

Review: Dial H #2

By Walt Richardson | Jun 8, 2012 | Reviews

Most reviews of “Dial Hero” #1 made it out to be reminiscent of the Vertigo comics of the late 80’s and early 90’s. In fact, that is why I, as a reader rather than a critic, picked it up in the first place — that era is, as the kids say, “my jam.” After reading […]

Review: Extermination #1 [with Preview]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 8, 2012 | Reviews

“Irredeemable,” BOOM! Studio’s hot-selling superhero pastiche, is over. It’s ending leaves a bit of a void in many pulls for a dark super-title which plays off some familiar tropes in a new and decidedly dark way, finding many fans wondering where they’re going to get their next fix from. Well, ladies and gentlemen, do I […]

Review: Dark Avengers #175

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 8, 2012 | Reviews

The band remains the same but the song title changes as we move from “Thunderbolts” to “Dark Avengers.” But what does that mean? Is nothing ever going to be the same? Has “AvX” fallout begun? Is it just a marketing gimmick? Is up now down? Let’s figure it out. Written by Jeff Parker Illustrated by […]

Double Shot Review: Swamp Thing #10/Animal Man #10

By Gilbert Short | Jun 7, 2012 | Reviews

There’s something rotten in the state of…wherever Swamp Thing and Animal Man are at this point! Puns aside, the two franchises are kicking it up a notch in preparation for their upcoming crossover. The stakes have certainly been raised, with both characters at their most vulnerable. But where have we found ourselves this week? Let’s […]

Review: Worlds’ Finest #2

By Brian Salvatore | Jun 7, 2012 | Reviews

Last month, the superstar team of Paul Levitz, George PÃ©rez and Kevin Maguire launched “Worlds’ Finest,” the tale of Earth 2’s displaced Robin and Supergirl, known to us as Huntress (Helena Wayne) and Power Girl (Karen Starr). The first issue was packed with character detail, informative flashback scenes, beautiful art, and an exciting cliffhanger. The […]

Review: Creator Owned Heroes #1

By Matthew Meylikhov | Jun 7, 2012 | Reviews

A bevy of talented folk team-up for a brand new comic magazine at Image Comics. You get two stories for the average price of one, and more! Don’t you just love a bargain? Written by Steve Niles, Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray Illustrated by Kevin Mellon and Phil Noto “AMERICAN MUSCLE,” Part One by STEVE […]

Secret #2 Cover

Review: Secret #2

By Walt Richardson | Jun 7, 2012 | Reviews

The Internet is so abuzz regarding Jonathan Hickman’s “Manhattan Projects” that it seems to have forgotten “Secret” already, even though it is only moving into its second issue this week. I, on the other hand, was greatly impressed by the debut of “Secret,” and awaited the second issue with bated breath. Written by Jonathan Hickman […]

By David Harper | Jun 4, 2012 | Reviews

I’m so insanely bummed out. Season two of HBO’s Game of Thrones ended last night, and now I am going to have to wait god knows how long to get more. Saddest of all pandas. Anyways, my five thoughts on the season finale, titled “Valar Morghulis,” can be found below. 1. Whoa. Now that was […]
