Telling a quality Red Sonja story is a difficult task for any creator. Author Mark Russell and artist Mirko Colak are the two latest creators to take on the character. Sonja’s brutal nature and status as a feminist icon will prove difficult for any author or illustrator to portray. Russell is required to give a […]

“World’s Finest”

By Jonathan O'Neal | Feb 5, 2019 | Reviews

Published as three 48-page prestige-format issues in 1990, “World’s Finest,” wears its love for the Golden Age of superheroes on its sleeve thanks to a collaboration that unabashedly celebrated the off-the-wall splendor of costumed superheroes while softening the prickly relationship between fellow orphans Batman and Superman only a few years after Frank Miller’s precedent-setting “Dark […]

“Heroes in Crisis” #5

By Gustavo S Lodi | Feb 1, 2019 | Reviews

“Heroes in Crisis” reaches the halfway mark and the two main intentions on this series become clearer. The combination of a core detective story, with an appealing discussion on trauma, mental disorder and paths to recovery (or lack thereof) make for a complex and interesting package, and one that is better appreciated upon multiple read-throughs. […]

“Exiles” #12

By Jaina Hill | Feb 1, 2019 | Reviews

The worst part of “Exiles” #12 is the last page where it ends. It was a fun issue and I was sad for it to be over, but it was also the last issue of the series and that’s a damn shame. If the joy that was Spiderverse taught us anything, it’s that dimension bending, […]

By Robbie Pleasant | Feb 1, 2019 | Reviews

“Rick and Morty vs Dungeons & Dragons” has been blowing me away with the sheer amount of love it has for D&D in all its forms. Every page contains an ode to the history of the game or its current place in pop culture, all through the lens of Rick and Morty. So with the […]

“Wyrd” #1

By Christa Harader | Jan 31, 2019 | Reviews

“Wyrd” #1 promises a dose of dark humor and gritty realism that doesn’t entirely land thanks to inconsistent layouts, a box-standard hero and not enough, well. Weird.
