“Avengers” #19

By Gustavo S Lodi | May 24, 2019 | Reviews

“Avengers” #19 is yet another issue crossing under the ‘War of the Realms’ saga. And while Marvel has really gone all-in with this event, with nearly the entire line becoming involved with it, the firm handle of Jason Aaron adds nuance to peripheral characters, to great success. Written by Jason Aaron Penciled by Ed McGuinness […]

“Action Comics” #1011

By Michael Govan | May 24, 2019 | Reviews

Bendis is coming! Remember that ad? The text was in all caps, accompanied by an exclamation point and smiling Superman.

“Assassin Nation” #3

By Jaina Hill | May 23, 2019 | Reviews

Like misbehaving Muppets and depraved children’s cartoons, there’s something strange to be said of seeing Erica Henderson draw foul-mouthed murderers. Henderson has been a big presence in my comics experience ever since she was doing work for the now-defunct Comics Alliance, but she really came to prominence with the wonderful all-ages “Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.” So […]

“Herakles” Book Two

By Jonathan O'Neal | May 20, 2019 | Reviews

The first entry in Edouard Cour’s Herakles trilogy was an unabashedly non-classical take on the Hercules myth that throttled through the hero’s first eight legendary labors in service to Eurystheus, the king of Argos, as penance for Hercules’s effrontery to Hera for being the bastard son of her husband Zeus. Read about it here. Book […]

“Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion – Lando Calrissian” #1

By Michael Govan | May 17, 2019 | Reviews

I’ve been worn out on “Star Wars” comics for a while now. They have to work within the canon and around the events in the movies. Characters can only develop so much without contradicting the films. It’s basically filler, each issue feel unnecessary. I think the Star Wars franchise as a whole works best when […]

“War of the Realms” #4

By Jaina Hill | May 17, 2019 | Reviews

The craziest part of “War of the Realms” isn’t how good it is, it’s how easy it makes writing a humongous Event look. Marvel Events have been pretty low quality in the past, and even the good ones have left their writers a ruined wreck of their former selves. So what’s Jason Aaron’s secret? What […]
