“Orion”

By Reed Hinckley-Barnes | Jan 15, 2019 | Reviews

Walt Simonson is probably best known for his work on “Thor.” He is a dynamic artist and writer, and his “Thor” run is not only for that character, but in super hero comics in general. This review, though, is not about that run on “Thor.” Instead, we’re looking at a different pantheon, a different publisher, […]

By Rodney Ortiz | Jan 15, 2019 | Reviews

The impetus for one’s choosing of a particular book to read, much less purchase, is always uniquely interesting. Whether it is a comic book, graphic novel or traditional novel, all literature must draw you into its grasp and spark some sort of intrigue.

“Self/Made” #2

By Jaina Hill | Jan 11, 2019 | Reviews

“Self/Made” arrived in a flurry of exciting buzz, but with scant details explaining what kind of series it was going to be. Sure, it was clearly sci-fi from the covers, and the solicits implied some sort of robots-discovering-consciousness business, but the actual series has been filled with surprises. And that’s all in two issues! Suffice […]

“Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” #1
