By Elias Rosner | Oct 26, 2018 | Reviews

Max Bemis’ run on “Moon Knight” comes to a close with issue #200. Beginning as a Legacy title, has it lived up to the initiative or has it floundered under the weight of its own ambition?

By Michael Govan | Oct 26, 2018 | Reviews

“Olivia Twist” #2

By John Schaidler | Oct 26, 2018 | Reviews

Riffing on well known source material can be a great way to jump start a book and hook in the reader. It can also be convoluted and unnecessarily contrived. “Olivia Twist” #2 buries its good ideas in a pile of well worn tropes. (Warning: contains minor spoilers.) Written by Darin Strauss and Adam Dalva Illustrated by Emma […]

“The Whispering Dark” #1

By Christopher Egan | Oct 26, 2018 | Reviews

The best horror stories are based in a believable reality. Allowing the reader to become immersed in a situation, even if it is one they have never found themselves in, that human connection is what draws you in before the scares come.

Lodger 1 Featured

“Lodger” #1

By Jonathan O'Neal | Oct 26, 2018 | Reviews

The Laphams have cred. Their “Stray Bullets” saga was hailed by fans, critics, and fellow creators as a longform crime noir masterpiece, so the first issue of “Lodger” arrives on stands with a certain amount of built-in cache that is amplified under IDW’s curated imprint logo, Black Crown, but does it live up to the […]

Old Lady Harley 1 Featured

“Old Lady Harley” #1

By Gustavo S Lodi | Oct 25, 2018 | Reviews

Some characters in comics have so much exposure, have become so ingrained in fandom’s consciousness as a presence (rather than an individual) that it becomes harder to tell stories that feel truly unique or that move motivations and development further. Harley Quinn may be this generation’s biggest new example of that, with a seemingly superhero […]

“Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider” #1

By Jaina Hill | Oct 25, 2018 | Reviews

Never have I seen a comic character catch on quite like Spider-Gwen. Before she even debuted in the pages of ‘Spider-Verse’ people fell in love. Now she’s had an ongoing series, a prominent role in a cartoon show, and is about to debut on the big screen. All of this in as little as four […]

“Mars Attacks” #1

By Rowan Grover | Oct 25, 2018 | Reviews

The 1960s card-game-turned-Tim-Burton-movie, “Mars Attacks” has seen some incredible longevity for something that hasn’t seen a huge amount of success. Now in the hands of IDW, the franchise sees a new comic reboot in the hands of comedy masters Kyle Starks and Chris Schweizer of “Rock Candy Mountain” fame. Does this series evoke what made […]

“Judge Dredd: Toxic” #1

By Reed Hinckley-Barnes | Oct 25, 2018 | Reviews

IDW’s new Judge Dredd mini-series tries to weave a tale that satirizes the current political moment, taking on subjects of asylum and illegal immigration. Is “Judge Dredd: Toxic” #1 able to effectively take on these issues while still taking place in the world of Mega-City One? Read our review to find out. But be careful, […]

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. An awkward British teenager with glasses is destined to become the greatest or worst magician of all time. Sounds familiar right?

By Multiversity Staff | Oct 22, 2018 | Reviews

There is 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 […]

“Aquaman” #41

By Gustavo S Lodi | Oct 19, 2018 | Reviews

Despite its connection to the upcoming “Justice League” ‘Drowned Earth’ crossover, “Aquaman” 41 still falls prey to its recent shortcomings, that of being unable to move past the themes of Arthur as a failed king and Atlantis as a troubled world power. Written by Dan Abnett Pencils by Lan Medina Inked by Vicente Cifuentes Colored […]

“Marvel Zombies” #1

By Elias Rosner | Oct 19, 2018 | Reviews

The longevity of the “Marvel Zombies” is something to behold. Returning again and again like the monsters contained within, never satisfied with where it last left off. This time, however, the title seems to be taking a different approach, focusing not on the plural but on the singular. This might just be the only way […]

Robin’s new Teen Titans team starts coming together, for better or worse. Can the dysfunctional bunch actually become a proper team? Will we learn more about the characters? The answers to that are in this issue and . . . what’s this? Is romance in the air? Are the teenage hormones kicking in long enough […]

What If? Ghost Rider #1 Featured

“What If? Ghost Rider” #1

By Jaina Hill | Oct 19, 2018 | Reviews

There was a time when “What If?” was a popular Marvel ongoing series, but since the second volume ended in 1998, “What If?” has only made sporadic returns. Usually as one-shots or miniseries, none of these “What If?” revivals have had staying power. That’s too bad. As “What If? Ghost Rider” #1 proves, the series […]
