Aquaman 27 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Aquaman” #27

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 14, 2017 | Previews

We’ve been on board with “Aquaman” since ‘Rebirth’ began, but since going monthly, the book has become one of the absolutely essential DC titles. Stjepan Sejic’s art has elevated Dan Abnett’s underwater political intrigue to epic proportions, making each issue look and feel like a truly big deal. With Arthur operating in secret, Mera trying […]

Revolutionaries 7 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Revolutionaries” #7

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 11, 2017 | Previews

Last year’s “Revolution” was the most concentrated attempt, thus far, by IDW to bring together all their Hasbro properties together. This has seen the line grow, change, and spawn even more new series, like this week’s “First Strike.” But that doesn’t meant that the events of “Revolution” have been left in the dust. “Revolutionaries,” which […]

Ultimates 2 #100 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Ultimates 2” #100

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 10, 2017 | Previews

“Ultimates 2,” along with “Venom,” is one of the first Marvel books to revert to its legacy numbering, even if this is one of the more convoluted numberings out there, encompassing an Ultimate universe book and this, a totally unrelated series. That said, the move shows that Marvel is confident in the book, which it […]

Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #13 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Batgirl and the Birds of Prey” #13

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 7, 2017 | Previews

One of the ‘Rebirth’ books that went back to the roots of its characters’ history, is the Birds of Prey. Black Canary, Huntress, and Oracle Batgirl are back together, along with a new Oracle, and doing their best to keep Gotham safe. The book is, essentially, the most street-level Bat-book of ‘Rebirth’ so far – […]

X-O Manowar #7 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “X-O Manowar” #7

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 4, 2017 | Previews

Valiant, since its 2012 relaunch, has always been careful not to over-saturate the market. Books come and go, and you know that the books that are currently being published are of the utmost importance to the line. “X-O Manowar” has been the flagship book of the line, first under the pen of Robert Venditti and […]

Inhumans: Once and Future Kings 1 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Inhumans: Once and Future Kings” #1

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 3, 2017 | Previews

Christopher Priest, perhaps, had the best 2016 of any mainstream comics writer. After a long sabbatical, he signed on to write “Deathstroke” for DC, and took the industry by storm with his impossibly complex, smart, funny, and engaging storytelling. We were quite excited when this book was announced, as it brought Priest to another unexpected […]

The X-Files: Origins—Dog Days of Summer #2 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “The X-Files: Origins – Dog Days of Summer” #2

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 31, 2017 | Previews

We’ve been really enjoying our Summer TV Binge of The X-Files, with our Jess Camacho taking us through the early days of Mulder and Scully. But this week sees the release of the second issue of “The X-Files: Origins – Dogs Days of Summer,” which takes us waaaaaay back into the teenager years of Mulder […]

Green Lanterns 28 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Green Lanterns” #28

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 31, 2017 | Previews

One of the more enduring concepts of the late-period Geoff Johns writing at DC is the expansion of the Green Lanterns of Sector 2814. Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz, since the start of ‘Rebirth,’ have been the two Earth-bound Lanterns, the Lanterns of the Justice League and the stars of “Green Lanterns,” the Sam Humphries-penned […]

All New Guardians of the Galaxy 7 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “All-New Guardians of the Galaxy” #7

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 27, 2017 | Previews

Since “All-New Guardians of the Galaxy” launched earlier this year from Gerry Duggan and Aaron Kuder, it has injected a healthy dose of excitement into the franchise. In addition to Kuder, the book has had a murderer’s row of guest artists so far, like Frazier Irving and Chris Samnee. In fact, the Samnee issue received […]

Exclusive Preview: “Justice League of America” #11

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 24, 2017 | Previews

“Justice League of America” has been such an interesting book since it debuted earlier this year. The team is one of the more inspired Justice League lineups in recent years, with a nice mix of classic League members (Vixen, Black Canary), newcomers to the team (Killer Frost, Lobo), and legacy characters/newly introduced classic characters (The […]

Doctor Aphra 10 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Star Wars: Doctor Aphra” #10

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 20, 2017 | Previews

The Star Wars universe, pre-Disney acquisition, consistently was creating new characters in, and for, its comics. Though there were still adventures featuring Leia, Luke, and Han, the comics pushed the stories into new places and allowed stories to develop that couldn’t be told on the screen, for a number of reasons. The first real hint […]

Korgi Short Tales Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Korgi: Short Tales”

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 17, 2017 | Previews

There is a long and rich history of animal comics, especially in the underground comix scene of the 60s and 70s, and they can take on all forms: innocent, raunchy, or somewhere in between. “Korgi: Shrot Tales” is of the beautifully illustrated, sweet side of animal comics. Seven of these stories were part of Free […]

Batman 27 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Batman” #27

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 17, 2017 | Previews

With “The War of Jokes and Riddles” ramping up, it may seem a little silly to have an ‘interlude’ already. But, then we wouldn’t get a Kite Man focused mini-arc! Kite Man is a Bat-villain that seems primed for a resurgence, especially in this era, where Calendar Man and Cluemaster have been revived. Clay Mann […]

Exclusive Preview: “TMNT Amazing Adventures: Robotanimals!” #2

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 16, 2017 | Previews

“TMNT Amazing Adventures” is the IDW Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles book that (more or less) keeps the continuity from the Nickelodeon Turtles TV series. The look and feel of the book is certainly in line with that series, which is yet another example of IDW attempting to appeal to every type of Turtles fan, from […]

Peter Parker The Spectacular Spider-Man #2 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man” #2

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 13, 2017 | Previews

Last month, “Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man” returned. The classic Marvel title, this time helmed by Chip Zdarsky (“Sex Criminals,” “Howard the Duck”) and Adam Kubert (“Action Comics,” “Ultimate Fantastic Four”). T We loved the first issue, and are can’t wait to check out the second issue, of which we have an exclusive first look. […]

Real Science Adventures 4 Featured

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 10, 2017 | Previews

The world of Atomic Robo has grown considerably in the last few years, seeing creator Brian Clevinger continue to branch out his creation into new books. “Real Science Adventures” started life as a webcomic, and eventually saw print distribution by IDW. The series looks at the side characters from Atomic Robo stories, and we are […]

Gotham Academy Second Semester 11 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Gotham Academy: Second Semester” #11

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 10, 2017 | Previews

Next month, the second chapter of the “Gotham Academy” saga wraps up. “Gotham Academy: Second Semester” has been a sort of ‘tweener’ book, not quite ‘Rebirth,’ but something of its own island – albeit one that touches the greater Gotham world. While this iteration is ending, there have been assurances from the creators – Becky […]

Micronauts Wrath of Karza 3 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Micronauts: Wrath of Karza” #3

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 7, 2017 | Previews

The Habsro-verse has been growing in leaps and bounds over at IDW, and right in the middle of all of that is “Micronauts.” The once-forgotten property has spun off a new miniseries, “Micronauts: Wrath of Karza,” which sees the classic villain return and try to conquer Earth. Writers Cullen Bunn and Jimmy Johnston have teamed […]

Old Man Logan 26 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Old Man Logan” #26

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 7, 2017 | Previews

“Old Man Logan” is a concept that, on paper, shouldn’t have worked as well, or lasted as long, as it has. With Ed Brisson recently coming on board as writer, the book has taken a different turn, and has felt really fresh, breathing new life into the concept (no offense to Jeff Lemire, who did […]

Transformers Till All Are One 11 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Transformers: Till All Are One” #11

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 3, 2017 | Previews

Few franchises have had the second act that Transformers have. From a property that went from huge to forgotten in less than a generation, the last decade or so of blockbuster films, new toys, and IDW’s ever-expanding comics universe, Transformers seem bigger than ever, which is a crazy thing to consider with how big they […]

Bane Conquest 3 Featured

Exclusive Preview: “Bane Conquest” #3

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 3, 2017 | Previews

One of DC’s initiatives over the past few years has been to bring creators back to their iconic characters for miniseries that fall somewhere between continuity and non-continuity. These series don’t seem to take place in alternate universes or anything, but they are the most self-contained of stories, which allows the creative team to fully […]
