There’s always something significant about the launch of a new “Superman” comic. After all, he’s one of the world’s most iconic superheroes and the icon of DC – a new run should be treated with gravitas and respect. So what better comic for the pick of the week?

“Tumult”

By Edward Haynes | Jul 9, 2018 | Reviews

“Tumult” is a London-set psychological thriller, a story of an artistic man, in an alcoholic and depressive descent, who meets, obsesses over, and rediscovers purpose through, a mysterious woman with a dark past. This is a story we’ve seen before, which doesn’t have to be a bad thing, a familiar shape to a story can […]

Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 7/4/18

By Multiversity Staff | Jul 9, 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 […]

Prism Stalker 5 feature Sloane Leong

“Prism Stalker” #5

By Tom Baker | Jul 6, 2018 | Reviews

In a far-off corner of the galaxy, on a planet that can read thoughts and adapt its gooey structures to defend itself against attack, blue-haired outsider Vep attempts to establish a new home for her exiled people. Which she does mainly through some cool, psychic power-assisted fight scenes in the latest issue of this neon-colored […]

Ant-Man and the Wasp

By Tom Shapira | Jul 6, 2018 | Movies, Reviews

Are two insects better the one? Read this spoiler-free review to find out. I was not particularly expecting Ant-Man and the Wasp. The first film, from which this one inherits not only the cast (likable, but underutilized) but journeyman comedy director Peyton Reed as well, showed a lot potential but suffered from a particularly saggy […]

“Cosmic Ghost Rider” #1

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jul 6, 2018 | Reviews

Frank Castle, under the pen of Donny Cates, has become the Cosmic Ghost Rider in the pages of “Thanos.” The character soon became a sensation with his maniacal personality and over-the-top powers. But can this supporting character sustain his own mini-series? Signs point to yes. Written by Donny Cates Illustrated by Dylan Burnett Colored by […]

Highest House 5 Featured

“The Highest House” #5

By Rowan Grover | Jul 5, 2018 | Reviews

Mike Carey and Peter Gross’ grand fantasy miniseries continues towards its dramatic conclusion with issue five. A lot of the comic up until this point still felt like table setting, with a relatively slow pace for a six-issue mini. Will “The Highest House” finally start hurtling towards its end with the penultimate issue? Written by […]

Assassinistas 6 Featured

“Assassinistas” #6

By Kate Kosturski | Jul 5, 2018 | Reviews

The craziest college internship in the history of college internships comes to an end for Dominic, but he’s not the only one who’s learned something along the way. One of our Multiversity fan favorites wraps up with a dose of sentimentality, but not the sticky-sweet kind you’re used to in an Afterschool Special. Please note […]

“Quantum Age” #1

The world of Black Hammer gets bigger and jumps well into the future with “The Quantum Age” and begins exploring two important aspects of cape comics: teenagers and doing good in dark times.

“Batman” #50

By Jonathan O'Neal | Jul 5, 2018 | Reviews

“Batman” readers have eagerly anticipated this comic book event for over a year, and once again, Tom King (with the help of an all-star roster of artists) mines Batman and Catwoman’s shared history to craft a narrative that celebrates what brought the two Gotham City icons together and what has kept them apart. Written by […]

Catwoman 1 Featured

Pick of the Week: “Catwoman” #1

By Jaina Hill | Jul 5, 2018 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Catwoman is an old lady. Not the character in the comic, I mean in real life. Selina Kyle first appeared in the first issue of “Batman” in 1940. She’s endured for decades, in multiple series across media. That’s because there’s an ineffable quality, a versatility, that allows her to exist in trippy fantasy and grounded […]

“Apollo”

By Tom Shapira | Jul 3, 2018 | Reviews

Is there anything new to tell about the first manned flight to the moon? The new graphic novel from SelfMadeHero/Abrams seeks to answer that question by expending the boundaries beyond the mission itself, touching not only on launch and landing but also on the social, psychological and historical currents that shaped the Apollo 11 flight […]

Charley's War Featured

“Charley’s War”

By Tom Shapira | Jul 3, 2018 | Reviews

How do you take as subject as grim as the trenches of World war I and translate it into the format of the weekly four-page adventure story without boring your readers to tears or making a mockery of the whole affair? You don’t, obviously. Unless you are Pat Mills and Joe Colquhoun, in which case […]

Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers Anniversary Special 1 featured

“Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers 25th Anniversary Special” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Jun 29, 2018 | Reviews

Nearly 25 years ago, a 4-year-old me sat in front of the television and watched helmeted heroes in brightly-colored spandex fight monsters and call upon giant robots. That series has survived through multiple iterations, adapting “Super Sentai” series as they come, and is now making a nostalgic comeback in the form of comics. So in […]

“Bedtime Games” #1

By Christopher Egan | Jun 29, 2018 | Reviews

Horror tales that are rooted in small town legends are equally scary and charming. Dark Horse regularly embraces these qualities in many of their publications. “Bedtime Games” is their most recent folktale horror book. Written by Nick Keller Illustrated by Conor Nolan Colored by Kelly Fitzpatrick Lettered by John J. Hill Dark Horse Comics “Bedtime […]
