“Redlands” #10

By Rowan Grover | Jan 31, 2019 | Reviews

“Redlands” continues to be one of the most forward-thinking and provocative comics on the stands at the moment. Bellaire, Del Rey, and Cowles have become a tight-knit team over the last ten issues, delivering a comic that serves as a cultural awakening as much as it is a classic horror tale. Let’s see how the […]

Pick of the Week: “Mysteries of Love in Space” #1

By Michael Govan | Jan 31, 2019 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

When you think ‘comic books’, you think ‘superheroes’. Granted, there are comics of other genres but the capes are top dog, no doubt. It can be easy to forget, this wasn’t always the case. Once upon a time, readers were all about romance! Real mushy, lovey-dovey, melodramatic stuff. Seriously, readers ate it up. DC’s “Girls’ […]

By Mark Tweedale | Jan 30, 2019 | Reviews

“The Sea”

By Michelle White | Jan 29, 2019 | Reviews

“The Sea” from Fantagraphics starts with a well-worn premise – a sailor full of stories – and then goes some strange places indeed. With Scandinavian flair as well as charm all its own, this is a story that keeps you guessing. Written and illustrated by Rikke Villadsen A fisherman traversing the ocean is used to […]

Polar

By Michael Mazzacane | Jan 28, 2019 | Movies, Reviews

Man I hope Victor Santos got a lot of money for this. Lets make something very clear from the start: Polar is not a good movie. It isn’t a good “bad” movie, it is one minute shy of two hours’ worth of juvenile nihilism parading as black humor. As a critic I try to never […]

“Grand Theft Horse”

By Alea Perez | Jan 28, 2019 | Reviews

The feisty Gail Ruffu has had a lifelong fascination with horses. Given the chance as a licensed trainer to put her expertise to use and partially own a race horse that shared her spirited approach to life, she took it. But when the horse, Urgent Envoy, began having progressively worse leg issues during trainings, Gail […]

By Multiversity Staff | Jan 28, 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 […]

“Starcraft Soldiers” #1

By Jaina Hill | Jan 25, 2019 | Reviews

“Fire washes the skin off the bone and the sin off the soul. It cleans away the dirt. And my momma didn’t raise herself no dirty boy.” So spoke Franko Tildon, the first fighting Firebat in the greater lore of Blizard’s long-running sci-fi series Starcraft. I quote the eloquent Mr. Tildon to note that the […]

“Crypt of Shadows” #1

By Elias Rosner | Jan 25, 2019 | Reviews

Open your ears, dear reader, what do you hear? The creaking of the gates as you sit alone in the mausoleum. The scraping of metal and stone coming from the corner, the shuffling of feet, the drip, drip, drip of blood coming from the walls. Do you dare approach or are you all too aware of what nameless evil lurks in the “Crypt of Shadows?"

“The Spider King: Frostbite”

By Rowan Grover | Jan 25, 2019 | Reviews

Josh Vann and Simone D’Armini’s “The Spider King” captivated audiences last year with a sublime blend of historical Viking action and glamorous, weird sci-fi tropes. The creators set up a spectacular universe in their comic, so it makes sense that they would return to it once more, in this case with the one-shot “Frostbite”. But […]

“Guardians of the Galaxy” #1

By Reed Hinckley-Barnes | Jan 25, 2019 | Reviews

It’s safe to say, that this point, that Donny Cates has moved past being a rising star at Marvel and into being a one of their most celebrated writers. He has a way of creating high concepts and exciting new stories, which has been a breath of fresh air to the Marvel universe. Because of […]

“Aquaman” #44

By Alexander Jones | Jan 24, 2019 | Reviews

When readers first learned that acclaimed writer Kelly Sue DeConnick was coming back to Big Two comics via “Aquaman,” most readers likely expected a back-to-basics approach for the hero. However, DC has offered readers anything but with the title from day one when “Aquaman” first launched in Rebirth. While the first part of author Dan […]

“Oliver” #1

By Michael Govan | Jan 24, 2019 | Reviews

Sometimes, I’m a little jealous of people who go see superhero movies but don’t read the comics. When I saw Captain America: The Winter Soldier in theaters, there were some surprised gasps and murmurs when Bucky Barnes was revealed to be Hydra’s brainwashed assassin. While this was old news to a comic fan like me, […]

“Aliens: Resistance” #1

By Christopher Egan | Jan 24, 2019 | Reviews

Have you been pining for a continuation of Amanda Ripley’s story from the great, but mildly frustrating cliffhanger of Alien: Isolation? Did you love “Aliens: Defiance,” but are dying to know what ultimately happened to Zula and Davis? Thankfully Brian Wood is here to give us some answers to both! Written by Brian Wood Illustrated […]

“Naomi” #1

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jan 24, 2019 | Reviews

“Naomi” is the second entry on the Bendis-managed umbrella imprint called ‘Wonder Comics.’ If the first of those delivered on big action, fast-pacing and known characters (“Young Justice”), this series is a much more character-driven, insightful exploration of identity and purpose, despite its superheroic surroundings. Written by Brian Michael Bendis & David F. Walker Illustrated […]

“Buffy The Vampire Slayer” #1

By Jonathan O'Neal | Jan 24, 2019 | Reviews

The task of rebooting anything with a twenty-year history is a daunting one, and inasmuch as a relaunch aims to attract new readers it must still appeal to fans of the original incarnation of the property. With “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” Boom! Studios sets out to do just that by driving a stake into the […]
