Ahoy, mateys! For this year’s Summer Comics Binge, I’ll be tackling a huge gap in my manga library; the gargantuan “One Piece,” written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda.

“The Surrogates”

By Drew Bradley | Jul 30, 2019 | Reviews

“Surrogates,” a detective story disguised as science fiction, is crammed with subtexts that will keep you thinking about the way society interacts with technology long after you’ve reached the last page. Thirteen years after it debuted, it still holds up to a careful examination. Written by Robert Venditti Illustrated by Brett Weldele The year is […]

“Teen Titans: Raven”

By Shamus Clancy | Jul 30, 2019 | Reviews

Life never feels so important and overwhelming as it does during high school. Over the course of “Teen Titans: Raven,” writer Kami Garcia tackles the all too familiar theme of having a teenage identity crisis, only with the added anxiety of doing it while having psionic abilities. Garcia accurately portrays what it’s like to confront […]

By Justin McGuire | Jul 30, 2019 | Reviews

Volume seven of Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden is the book that scales the story of Soren. It moves towards his self-sacrifice, and the then circles around its impact. This is overlaid on the evolution of the story of war as it is promoted to the forefront, on top of a background of plagues and bandits. […]

“Countdown” #45-39

By Walt Richardson | Jul 29, 2019 | Reviews

Well, it didn’t take too long for “Countdown” to get bad. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m trying to avoid an issue-by-issue breakdown of the series, because I don’t want “He wrote a million words about Countdown” on my tombstone, but issue #44 of “Countdown” deserves a special mention. It certainly isn’t the first bad issue […]

Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 07/24/19

By Multiversity Staff | Jul 29, 2019 | 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 […]

“New Warriors”: Teenage Rebellion

By Rowan Grover | Jul 28, 2019 | Reviews

Fabian Nicieza has been memorialized as one of the better X-Architects of the troublesome 1990s period of Marvel’s X-Men. His eye for snappy dialogue and high stakes soap opera led to some super fun comics, and he’s continued to work in the industry to this day to reasonable acclaim. Before all that, however, he kicked […]

“Star Pig” #1

By Matthew Blair | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

From the very beginning, “Star Pig” #1 lets the reader know that it is something special. The title is enough to draw the curiosity of anyone browsing the shelves of their local comic book store or looking for something to read online. It’s one of the best titles in modern comics, and it does a […]

“Moon Knight” #7

By Luke Cornelius | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

In recent years, Moon Knight has been a recurring character at Marvel Comics, with different iterations of the character being frequent but short-lived.

“Action Comics” #1013

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

While there are some truly interesting ideas on this issue and its connections to both ‘Event: Leviathan’ and ‘Year of the Villain,’ the atmospheric art and sharp dialogue can’t shake the feeling that not much is actually going on. Written by Brian Michael Bendis Illustrated by Szymon Kudranski Colored by Brad Anderson Lettered by Dave […]

At the end of your tether 02 (featured image)

“At the End of Your Tether” #2

By John Schaidler | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

“At the End of Your Tether” #2 doesn’t necessarily answer most the questions posed in the debut issue, but that’s what makes it work. The real story exists at the margins and in the gaps between multiple realities laden with intriguing possibilities and the longing for what might have been. (Warning: may contain minor spoilers.) […]

“Killer Groove” #3

By Grace Taylor | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

“Killer Groove” #3 dives deeper into the seedy music scene of the 1970s through the eyes of its main protagonists, Jonny and Jackie. As the two characters cross paths, the violence surrounding their jobs continues to escalate, but it’s unclear where the overall story is headed. Written by Ollie Masters Illustrated by Eoin Marron Colored […]

“The Wicked + The Divine” #44

By Kenneth Laster | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

While “The Wicked and The Divine” #44 is the penultimate issue of this series it acts as the finale by conclusively wrapping up the series as a whole. Written by Kieron Gillen Illustrated by Jamie McKelvie Colored by Matt Wilson Lettered by Clayton Cowles “OKAY,” Part Five. There’s one “i” in “decide” but two in […]

“Psi-Lords” #2

By Vanessa Boney | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

While reading “Psi-Lords” #2, I found myself drawing parallels to other characters and comics, such as DC’s Lantern books and Wolverine. It’s difficult to read “Psi-Lords” #2 and not see similarities to DC Comics’ Lantern Corps; even down to the choice of color hues. And of course, waking up one day with powers and no […]

“Batman: Curse of the White Knight” #1

By Jonathan O'Neal | Jul 26, 2019 | Reviews

With “Batman: White Knight,” Sean Murphy captured a Batman aesthetic that felt both futuristic and vintage, timeless even. The book’s muted sepia and cool gray color palette provided by Matt Hollingsworth coupled with Murphy’s trademark hatching and a script that borrowed liberally from Batman’s comic, film, and animated television history combined to create a freestanding […]

“Monster” Perfect Edition Vol. 6

By Elias Rosner | Jul 25, 2019 | Reviews

When my child died, I tried to decide how I should react. Whether it was correct to cry in that situation, and how much I should cry. Whether I should scream. . .or gnash my teeth. . .I still don’t know the answer. . .

Archie vs. Predator 2 #1 Featured

“Archie vs. Predator 2” #1

By Christa Harader | Jul 25, 2019 | Reviews

“Archie vs. Predator 2” #1 blessedly picks up where the last volume left off with an Archie-fied, lovesick, teenage predator, Betty’s questionable decisions and a whole lot of confusion for the trio. Warning: spoilers ahead. Written by Alex de Campi Illustrated by Robert Hack Colored by Kelly Fitzpatrick Lettered by Jack Morelli Betty, Veronica, and […]
