Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 09/26/18

By Multiversity Staff | Oct 1, 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 […]

By Kate Kosturski | Sep 28, 2018 | Reviews

In order to understand one’s present (and perhaps one’s future), it’s important to look to one’s past. On the precipice of the Jodie Whitaker era, the Doctor Who comics pause to look back at the stories and the people that brought us to this place and time in space. Written by Richard Dinnick Illustrated by […]

“Doomsday Clock” #7

By Gustavo S Lodi | Sep 28, 2018 | Reviews

“Doomsday Clock” is now after its halfway mark and this issue could not be more representative of that. While it still retains its core structure, that of the seminal “Watchmen” series, Johns and Frank seem to intentionally allow new elements in, almost as if a more traditional comic book narrative pervades the “Watchmen-style.” By doing […]

“Amazing Spider-Man” #6

By Jaina Hill | Sep 28, 2018 | Reviews

It always made sense that Nick Spencer would take on Spider-Man. After all, the most celebrated superhero comic of his career was about five B-list to Z-list Spidey villains living out their loser lives. Spencer’s first arc ‘Back to Basics’ showed a lot of promise but inexplicably focused on Peter Parker dealing with a not-clone. […]

“Stranger Things” #1

By Rowan Grover | Sep 27, 2018 | Reviews

The Duffer Brothers’ Stranger Things has been a juggernaut for the Netflix platform from the day it launched. Combining ’80s nostalgia with horror and intrigue, it was a perfectly timed show to resonate with a young and older audience.

“Dredd: Final Judgement” #1

By Christopher Egan | Sep 27, 2018 | Reviews

For “Judge Dredd” fans, the 2012 film Dredd was exactly what they had been hoping for for many years. Unfortunately, the movie was a huge box office bomb, making back only a tiny fraction of its budget and the two planned sequels were never made. Since then, 2000 A.D. has graced us with a couple […]

It is not a light issue but when has WicDiv ever been light? Spoilers ahead. Written by Kieron Gillen Illustrated by Ryan Kelly […]

By Eric Goebelbecker | Sep 27, 2018 | Reviews

What impact does the violence that superheroes see everyday have on their well-being? Tom King’s “Heroes in Crisis” confronts this question. It’s a question that’s been asked before, but it’s refreshing to see it done without engaging in a complete deconstruction of the genre. This review contains minor spoilers.

Pick of the Week: “Man-Eaters” #1

By John Schaidler | Sep 27, 2018 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

After the high profile cancellation of “Mockingbird” and subsequent non-release of her run for “The Vision” with Marvel, twice-bitten writer Chelsea Cain and The Ministry of Trouble were left with some serious unfinished business. With “Man-Eaters” #1, Cain and her cohorts are back. This isn’t your father’s comic. Seek shelter immediately. (Warning: contains minor spoilers.) Written […]

By Elias Rosner | Sep 21, 2018 | Reviews
