“Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden” – Volume 4

By Justin McGuire | Jul 9, 2019 | News, Reviews

Last week I started to grok the artistry of Yuu Watase, and this week I’m starting to fall in love with her writing. Yuu Watase mixes character scenes with battles, and lets the results of each play against each other in a steady rhythm that I just sink into every time I pick up the […]

X-Factor Invisible Woman has vanished cover

“X-Factor” #200-206

By Jaina Hill | Jul 8, 2019 | Reviews

No, you read that correctly. After 50 issues of “X-Factor” (which is kind of incredible if you think about it), editorial decided to revert to legacy numbering. As such, we go straight from #50 to #200. That being said, we also get something of a return to normalcy for this series. Sure there’s another crossover […]

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

“Thumbs” #2

By Niklynn Dunn | Jul 5, 2019 | Reviews

“All in all you’re just another brick in the wall.” These lyrics from Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall Part 2” came to mind when I was reading “Thumbs” #2. Why? Because in this issue of “Thumbs,” Sean Lewis explores the role kids play in the world. Are they just disposable? Are kids only […]

Ignited 02 (featured image)

“Ignited” #2

By John Schaidler | Jul 5, 2019 | Reviews

Overall, the script for “Ignited” #2 does a fine job of interweaving backstory and real-time scenes that help move everything forward. The visual adultification of the book’s high school characters, however, creates a persistent and distracting emotional disconnect that proves difficult to overcome. (Warning: may contain minor spoilers.) Written by Mark Waid and Kwanza Osajyefo […]

The “Adventures of the Super Sons” comic comes to an end. Given Jon Kent’s age-up in the pages of “Superman” and “Action Comics,” who knows if we’ll get to see them together like this again?

“Aero” #1

By Michael Govan | Jul 4, 2019 | Reviews

It’s tough being a new comic book character. The established A-listers sure aren’t going anywhere. Even when they kick the bucket, we all know it won’t be for long. The likes of Superman and Batman were here before us and probably will be here after us too. The newbies on the other hand? No job […]
