“Man of Steel” #4

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jun 21, 2018 | Reviews

As the weekly series by Bendis and some of comics best artists reaches its second half, it becomes absolutely clear that the writer has an unique and true voice for Superman and that the artist choice for each issue is more than a “who’s who” on DC’s roster. Written by Brian Michael Bendis Illustrated by […]

“The Lie and How We Told It”

By Michelle White | Jun 19, 2018 | Reviews

“Sabrina”

By Paul Lai | Jun 19, 2018 | Reviews

Nick Drnaso has shown a gift for depicting how the quotidian quality of life masks, and then reveals, the dark fissures in our society. Two years ago, “Beverly” served as an abrupt revelation of that talent. Now, “Sabrina” (Drawn + Quarterly) sustains it in a troubling triumph of that contemporary unease that comics can insinuate […]

“The Comic Book Story of Baseball”

By Kate Kosturski | Jun 18, 2018 | Reviews

The game that is as American as apple pie gets another quintessentially American treatment: comic books. Can the graphic novel format break down what some consider to be a difficult sport to enjoy visually? It tdoes its best in many areas, but a preponderance of text may turn readers off. Written by Alex Irvine Illustrated, […]

By Multiversity Staff | Jun 18, 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 […]

“Thor” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Jun 15, 2018 | Reviews

The Odinson has returned! After Jason Aaron’s amazing arc with Jane Foster as Thor, it’s time to return to the status quo. But the War of the Realms is still ongoing, Mjolnir is no more, and Loki is more morally ambiguous than ever. So how does the story continue? Let’s take a look and see. […]

“Plastic Man” #1

By Alexander Jones | Jun 15, 2018 | Reviews

With a raised profile and more attention than ever, DC is incredibly wise to launch a new Plastic Man series! Due to his recent focus as part of DC’s “The Terrifics,” Eel O’Brian is begging for the spotlight!

“Proxima Centauri” #1

By Rowan Grover | Jun 15, 2018 | Reviews

Farel Dalrymple has been an artist lurking on the fringe of comics for a while now. He was introduced to the mainstream with an absurdist reinvention of Marvel’s “Omega The Unknown” and has since worked on his own titles and projects like “The Wrenchies” with his signature hyper-detailed penciling. Now, he’s releasing a mini-series that […]

Incredibles 2

By Matthew Garcia | Jun 15, 2018 | Movies, Reviews

When The Incredibles come out in 2004, superheroes in movies were still more of a novelty than the norm. While Bryan Singer and Sam Raimi had released two installments of X-Men and Spider-Man, respectively, Batman hadn’t yet begun and Nick Fury still searched for heroes to assemble. There was something fresh, something cool, something classic about The Incredibles. It […]

“Stellar” #1

By Jaina Hill | Jun 14, 2018 | Reviews

I’ve discussed my love of science fantasy comics before and “Stellar” #1 hits right in my sweet spot. You have oodles of strange aliens, an escaped superweapon/woman with a mysterious past, and a pantheon of evil space wizards. None of those ideas are novel; they’re cliches that I know I like. As with any story […]

“Nancy Drew” #1

By Elias Rosner | Jun 14, 2018 | Reviews

“By Night,” the newest maxi-series from “Giant Days” and “Bad Machinery” scribe John Allison promises a fantasy world, a mysterious disappearance, and more of that trademark Allison dialogue. What it delivers in its inaugural issue is something a little different. Something a bit less clear. Beware, spoilers await. Written by John Allison Illustrated by Christine […]
