“Strange” #1

By Joe Skonce | Mar 3, 2022 | Reviews

There’s nothing quite like shaking up the status quo, especially if it shows how a new person handles a position of power. From spy organizations to criminal underworlds, ancient kingdoms to magical societies, it’s exciting to see how fresh blood in a role changes the whole purpose and philosophy of a leader. After years of […]

The Batman

By Michael Mazzacane | Mar 3, 2022 | Movies, Reviews

There is something off about the Batman, a recognition of something darker that underlies the self-deprecating jab in Batman Begins about how “a guy who dresses up like a bat clearly has issues.” That gnawing tension runs through Matt Reeves’s new film, aptly titled, The Batman. It slowly walks out of the shadows in the […]

Mignolaversity: “Radio Spaceman: Mission to Numa 4” #1

By Brian Salvatore | Mar 2, 2022 | Reviews

While we all love Hellboy, Lobster Johnson, and the various other characters that Mike Mignola has brought to life over the past few decades, there’s always something exciting about Mignola dipping his toe into new waters. Inspired by some of his quarantine-era sketches, Mignola has teamed up with Greg Hinkle (“Airboy,” “Black Cloud”) and regular […]

The Webcomics Weekly #175: Summer Can’t Come Fast Enough (3/1/2022 Edition)

By Multiversity Staff | Mar 1, 2022 | Reviews

Wow. 175 issues of The Webcomics Weekly. Isn't that wild? It kind feels unreal we've reached this number. I mean, it's not a HUGE number but it's still big and a marker for the real big one: 200. I know 175 isn't really a milestone number but there's something very satisfying about multiples of 25 that brings out the wistful side of me.

Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 2/23/22

By Multiversity Staff | Feb 28, 2022 | Reviews

There’s 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 great […]

“Ghost Rider” #1

By Jaina Hill | Feb 25, 2022 | Reviews

Well, that’s certainly one way to do it. There’s a particular art to a good #1 issue, and “Ghost Rider” #1 certainly has a take. This is the back-to-basics approach that hopes to have the original dude as the original superhero, doing the types of things he would originally do. It succeeds in what it […]

“Step by Bloody Step” #1

By Matthew Blair | Feb 25, 2022 | Reviews

Comic books are in a weird place in popular culture these days. While readership is growing and comics have been really coming into their own over the past decade as an art form, it feels like a lot of people view them as more of an idea factory for bigger and more profitable art forms […]

“Aquamen” #1

By Alexander Jones | Feb 24, 2022 | Reviews

It was recently rumored that DC’s 5G initiative was planned to focus on the next generation of DC heroes before getting scrapped. The remnants of 5G still appear to be lingering in the DC Universe which is evident from titles like “Aquamen.” “Aquaman: The Becoming” promoted newer ocean-based hero Jackson Hyde to the seminal Aquaman […]

The Webcomics Weekly #174: 6+6+6+6 sleeps till #200 (2/22/2022 Edition)

The Webcomics Weekly is back in your life. This week we have the number of the BEAST … umm actually scratch that its one too many. What can I say math is hard, which will surely come up in the slice of life comic “6+6+6+6”. Meanwhile things get nostalgic in “Lavender Jack” and down right […]

“The Lion and the Eagle” #1

By Kobi Bordoley | Feb 18, 2022 | Reviews

Sometimes we forget history. This might be a mind-numbing truism, but it’s worth remembering. History is a collection of moments remembered and forgotten, and a measure of any healthy society is its ability to excavate, inspect, and learn from the past. Introspection is key to humility, and perhaps history is a civilization’s way of acknowledging […]

“A Man Among ‘Ye” #8

By Joe Skonce | Feb 17, 2022 | Reviews

While it’s not surprising, it’s interesting to see the legacy of piracy in pop culture. There is just something about pirates that speaks to the adventure in all of us. There’s the flamboyant excess of it all, the cool frock coats, the sword fights, the ability to live a carefree life. In a world of […]

Marry Me

By Christopher Chiu-Tabet | Feb 15, 2022 | Movies, Reviews

One of the most unlikely comic book movies of the year, She-Hulk director Kat Coiro’s romantic comedy Marry Me — based on the webcomic by Bobby Crosby and (an unfortunately uncredited) Remy “Eisu” Mokhtar — features Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson in the tale of a similarly unexpected pairing: Kat Valdez (Lopez), a pop star, […]

The Webcomics Weekly #173: An Ordeal of a Meal (2/15/2022 Edition)

By Multiversity Staff | Feb 15, 2022 | Reviews

Yesterday was Valentine's Day which means today is 1/2 off chocolate day. In celebration, we've got three comics for you! OK, it has nothing to do with either of those days but segues are hard and I'm distracted by all the chocolate I'm going to devour.

“Land of the Living Gods” #1

By Matthew Blair | Feb 11, 2022 | Reviews

South Africa is a fascinating country with a lot of potential, and a lot of problems. While it was able to gain its independence from the British, it still had to deal with the brutal apartheid government which they didn’t get rid of until 1994. Unfortunately, the legacy of apartheid still remains to this day […]

“Magic” #11

By Jaina Hill | Feb 10, 2022 | Reviews

It’s funny that Magic: The Gathering is enjoyed by so many people who don’t realize there’s a decades-running story. The tales of the Planeswalkers, wizards who can casually step between dimensions, has continued in books, comics, and in an upcoming Netflix animated series. And against all odds, the story behind Magic, is pretty good. So […]
