Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 04/03/19

By Multiversity Staff | Apr 8, 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 […]

“Major X” #1

By Rowan Grover | Apr 5, 2019 | Reviews

Saying the name Rob Liefeld amongst the comics crowd will garner something of a mixed reaction. You’ll get the usual boos, the people that call him out for his anatomical incorrectness and all the nineties tropes he embellished. On the other hand, you’ll get the people that grew up on his work, those who thrived […]

“Cosmic Ghost Rider Destroys Marvel History” #2

By Michael Govan | Apr 5, 2019 | Reviews

With Endgame right around the corner, people are probably getting into their MCU re-watches. Now there are a couple that you can skip (I’m looking at you, Dark World) and some you should revisit. For my money, Guardians of the Galaxy is a definite re-watch. It’s one of the most important projects by Marvel Studios […]

“Conan the Barbarian” #5

By Jaina Hill | Apr 4, 2019 | Reviews

The thing about Jason Aaron’s run on “Conan the Barbarian” is that, despite being an ongoing story, each issue is really a self contained adventure from different periods of the Cimmerian’s life. This approach not only keeps the story fresh, it mirrors the non-sequential approach of Howard’s original Conan stories. Unlike Howard though, Aaron to […]

“Amber Blake” #1

By Christopher Egan | Apr 4, 2019 | Reviews

It is an exciting time for women in comics, for both the fictional characters within the books and the creators of these new series. While there are many female characters throughout comics with some standing out above the crowd, many are weaker in structure than they should be. At worst, they are problematic facsimiles, at […]

“Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #6”

By Daniel Balyeat | Apr 3, 2019 | Longform, Reviews

Batman’s ongoing crusade against crime took some very strange twists and turns during Grant Morrison’s epic seven year stint on the character. And though Morrison’s run revealed several startling and bizarre moments (from Batman removing his own teeth at Bat-Mite’s suggestion, to the possibility that Thomas Wayne had actually paid a hitman to murder Martha […]

By Multiversity Staff | Apr 2, 2019 | Reviews

The April Fool has come and gone and, in its absence, has left us with a five webcomics to ring in the new season, two returners and three new ones. Tiny dungeons are explored, unsettling halls are traversed, strange tales are told, lost nightmares are found and gym rats flex their way through their reps.

“Marvel Rising” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Mar 29, 2019 | Reviews

Marvel has been going big with the “Marvel Rising” comics; there’s been at least three #1 issues of its various team-ups and lead-ins. But the comics and show have shown off some of Marvel’s greatest young heroes, so numbering issues are no big deal. With that in mind, let’s take a look at “Marvel Rising” […]

“Friendo” #5

By Matt Ligeti | Mar 29, 2019 | Reviews

This is the way the world ends, not with a whimper but with a garbage fire. “Friendo” #5 closes out the miniseries like a farcical fever dream with over-the-top, fiasco madness and thoughtful criticism of a society enthralled by toxic capitalism. It’s impossible to talk about how well-made the issue is without some SPOILERS, so […]
