By Michael Mazzacane | Aug 24, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

By its cover, “Nightwing: The New Order” looks like a certain kind of book and to a degree it is. But it sets itself up to potentially be more than its contemporaries and covers make it out to be.

Pick of the Week: “Curse Words” #6

By Jaina Hill | Jul 20, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Once upon a time there was a wizard. He betrayed his wizard friends, teamed up with his de-powered ex-girlfriend, and pissed off the U.S. government.

Pick of the Week: “Bloodshot’s Day Off”

By Robbie Pleasant | Jul 6, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

“Oh, a comic about Bloodshot taking a day on the town, that should be amusing. Probably the antics of a super soldier trying to have a relaxing day, but things keep going wrong.” At least, that’s what I thought when I first saw this comic’s title. What I got instead was a powerful look at […]

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. […]

Pick of the Week: “Venom” #150

By Rowan Grover | May 25, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Pick of the Week: “Star Wars: The Screaming Citadel” #1

By Jaina Hill | May 11, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Star Wars has been a lot of different things since 1979. In the extended canon, it has run the gamut of action/adventure, sci-fi/fantasy, and war stories. It dipped into romance with The Courtship of Princess Leia, and who can forget the surprisingly terrifying Galaxy of Fear books of the late 1990s? While Star Wars has […]

Tekken1 Featured

Pick of the Week: “Tekken” #1

By Alexander Jones | May 4, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

With so many off-the-wall characters bursting with personality, “Tekken” and comics feels like a match made in heaven. With the inner drama of the Mishima family mixing with the humans and anthropomorphic animals of “Tekken,” things get really interesting here. Also, this tale doesn’t start at the beginning of the series and isn’t even framed […]

Pick of the Week: “Infamous Iron Man” #7

By Robbie Pleasant | Apr 27, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Dr. Doom as Iron Man… the idea seemed ridiculous at first. Why would Doom, of all people, try to be a legacy character to someone else? Doom forges his own legacy! He does not need to take another’s name, for he is Doom. But Bendis said he could make it work, and comic readers responded […]
