Pick of the Week: “Sea of Stars” #1

By Jaina Hill | Jul 4, 2019 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

When you see the name of a comic book superstar on the cover of a book, usually that’s all you need to know. But what happens when there are two superstars? Does that make the book twice as essential? “Sea of Stars” brings together Jason Aaron, who you may know as one of the all […]

Spider-Man: Far From Home

By Michael Mazzacane | Jul 3, 2019 | Movies, Reviews

About 3 months after the Endgame, and before it even leaves theaters, the Marvel Cinematic Universe returns to the big screens with Spider-Man: Far From Home the second solo Tom Holland Spider-man film. With the cumulative weight of the MCU behind it, a surprising inter media conglomerate business arrangement, and the pretense of commercial art, […]

“Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden” – Volume 3

By Justin McGuire | Jul 2, 2019 | Reviews

I’m starting to understand where Yuu Watase’s comic book artistry shines. Some artists excel at tight panel composition, but that’s not her strength; Watase’s considerable talents lie at the opposite end, when she abandons traditional panels and positions her characters freely on the page to let them flow into each other. It’s a gift. Written […]

“Planetes Omnibus: Volume 1”

By Tom Shapira | Jul 2, 2019 | Reviews

In space, no can hear those annoying sounds a dump truck produces when it backs up. Makoto Yukimura’s garbage-bound science fiction tale is as fun as it is brilliant, cleverly balancing character work, world building, and political intrigue. Written and illustrated by Makoto Yukimura, lettered by Susan Daigle-Leach, translated by Yuki Johnson It’s the 2070s, […]

By Multiversity Staff | Jul 2, 2019 | Reviews

Welcome back, The Webcomics Weekly is back in your life. The magic continues in “Agents of the Realm” as Norah learns to do things with her new magical outfit. “Sam and Fuzzy” comes to a less than thrilling conclusion. “Skull and Coins” sounds like a slot machine from hell, which is fitting for this anthology […]

“X-Factor” #39-50

By Jaina Hill | Jul 1, 2019 | Reviews

Welcome back to our ongoing coverage of Peter David’s “X-Factor.” I remember loving this series, but I haven’t read it since it came out. Up until now there’s been a lot to like, but it wasn’t as explosive as I remembered it being. That all changes this week. The series goes for some huge swings. […]

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.

“Eve Stranger” #2

By Niklynn Dunn | Jun 28, 2019 | Reviews

“Eve Stranger” #2 is a comic that lets its characters kick ass and have fun while doing it. Eve Stranger #1 introduced us to the premise of Eve and the E.V.E.

Killer Groove #2 (featured image)

“Killer Groove” #2

By John Schaidler | Jun 28, 2019 | Reviews

The dialogue throughout “Killer Groove” #2 is funny and naturalistic, revealing great insights into the main characters and their relationships. This is a noir that feels contemporary and cool, but for some readers it might feel a bit light plot and pulp-inspired action. (Warning: may contain minor spoilers.) Written by Ollie Masters Illustrated by Eoin […]

At the end of your tether

“At the End of Your Tether” #1

By Jonathan O'Neal | Jun 28, 2019 | Reviews

Teen noir is a niche genre that has yielded some captivating content like the soon-to-be-revived on Hulu Veronica Mars, Rian Johnson’s Brick, and most recently, CW’s Riverdale. Dynamite recently gave the genre a whirl with its “Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys” teamup mini-series that (as the marketing folks proclaimed) redefined noir for a new […]

“Spider-Man Annual” #1

By Michael Govan | Jun 28, 2019 | Reviews

Going in, I was pretty excited to see Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. I was so confident it would be good, I bought my aunt and brother tickets, just so they could see it with me on opening night. Still, it managed to go above and beyond and completely blow me away. In my humble opinion, […]

“Avengers” #20

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jun 28, 2019 | Reviews

“Avengers” #20 may be part of a multi-tiered and sprawling saga like ‘War of the Realms,’ but at its heart it is a character study on Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk. By choosing to lean on that direction, the creative team was able to deliver a strong stand-alone issue in the midst of all that event […]
