“Her Infernal Descent” #1

By Rowan Grover | Apr 19, 2018 | Reviews

It seems that Aftershock have had a habit lately of combining their titles with themes of horror or hellish tones. From “Blood Blister” to “Babyteeth,” these themes, especially tied in with an underlying theme of family, have become very prevalent. So when I saw “Her Infernal Descent” solicited, a comic about a mother travelling to […]

“Action Comics” #1000

By Brian Salvatore | Apr 18, 2018 | Reviews

Anniversaries like this don’t happen all the time. In fact, it’s never happened before. One thousand issues of “Action Comics” is something that likely never seemed possible to even the most optimistic comic fan in 1938, or 1958, or even 1988. But this has been inevitable for some time now, and DC has had plenty […]

“X-Force” #1

Rob Liefeld. Upon hearing that name, many comic fans will be split down the middle. Many will cringe at his absurd anatomical work, his love of cross hatching or his disregard for the human foot. Others will grin at the fond memories they have with his work, how it exploded with energy and felt like […]

“Magpie”

By Forrest Sayrs | Apr 16, 2018 | Reviews

“Magpie” is a book that has more in common with poetry anthologies than it does with graphic novels. There’s a flightiness to the collection that makes it hard to put in on the same shelf as other pieces of graphic fiction. Which is not to say the art isn’t good (it is), or the short, […]

War! What is it good for? Ratings, apparently. “VS” drops us in the middle of an dark, futuristic world, where gladiatorial bouts are broadcast and soldiers are celebrities.

“Resident Alien: An Alien in New York” #1

By Elias Rosner | Apr 13, 2018 | Reviews

The fifth “Resident Alien” mini-series kicks off this week and as someone who has never read any of the others, that came as a bit of a surprise. The premise of aliens, mystery and a detective is an enticing one though so I’m willing to be confused for that sake. As a first issue, then, […]

Written by Serge Lehman and illustrated by Jean-Marie Michaud back in the mid-2000s. But does this title have enough to stand on it’s own amidst the crowd of […]
