Battlestar Galactica Vs Battlestar Galactica 1 Featured

“Battlestar Galactica vs. Battlestar Galactica” #1

By Alexander Jones | Jan 12, 2018 | Reviews

If Star Wars can take two casts of characters and lump them into the new films, “Battlestar Galactica” is more than capable of taking the same approach. Dynamite Entertainment is attempting to capitalize on the success of the franchise and blend the original series with the acclaimed mid-2000s reboot. Years after the heyday of both […]

“Darth Vader” #10

By Gregory Ellner | Jan 12, 2018 | Reviews

While a sad end to an arc, typical of Soule’s Vader, part four of ‘The Dying Light Part’ offers strong character moments and internal conflict. Written by Charles Soule Illustrated by Giuseppe Camuncoli Colored by David Curiel Lettered by Joe Caramagna Vader’s showdown with Jocasta Nu comes to a startling conclusion! What secret information has […]

“Mister Miracle”#6

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jan 12, 2018 | Reviews

“Mister Miracle” has been consistently one of the best books on the stands for its five first issues. The mature take on Scott Free and Barda, combined with a traditional nine-grid panelling yet experimental storytelling, has been a successful formula for Tom King and Mitch Gerads. So does issue 6 continue that trend? Yes, absolutely […]

“Sword of Ages” #2

By John Schaidler | Jan 11, 2018 | Reviews

Roll up your sleeves. Like its predecessor, “Sword of Ages” #2 is definitely not a breezy read. With a little work, however, this hybrid sci-fi/fantasy epic can be a richly rewarding experience. (Warning: contains minor spoilers.) Written and Illustrated by Gabriel Rodriguez Colored by Lovern Kindzierski Lettered by Robbie Robbins The reluctant warrior Avalon meets […]

“Witchblade” #2

By Jaina Hill | Jan 11, 2018 | Reviews

I don’t want to bury the lede: the new “Witchblade” is good comics. The writing is sharp, the art is cool and occasionally gorgeous. It’s a well put together book. It is, however, a new crack at a “Witchblade” series, and one helmed by female creators, so it carries with it the baggage of the […]

With Gene Luen Yang’s fantastic run on “New Super-Man” taking a break before rebranding next month, it’s time for a new writer to take the reins for this issue.

“Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.” (1968) #1-3, 5

By Edward Haynes | Jan 10, 2018 | Reviews

When people talk about the formal and creative innovation at Marvel in the 1960’s, they will generally focus on Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, and rightly so, their work was incredible and important. But there are a few names that feel inadvertently left out in the focus that Ditko and Kirby, one those names is […]

“White Sand” Volume One

By Forrest Sayrs | Jan 9, 2018 | Reviews

It is somewhat difficult to pick a starting place for a review of “White Sand.” The book is tangled up in the growing mythology of its author, Brandon Sanderson, in both the literal and literary senses. Suffice to say that “White Sand” is part of an expanding cannon of some of the best fantasy being […]

“Rise of the Black Panther” #1

By Jaina Hill | Jan 5, 2018 | Reviews

Evan Narcisse has never written a superhero comic before, but you wouldn’t know that from this debut issue. Narcisse made his foray into comics with an excellent story on Kotaku back in 2016. He showed a deep love, appreciation, but most of all, understanding for the King of Wakanda that started him on the path […]

“Secret Weapons” #0

By Michael Mazzacane | Jan 5, 2018 | Reviews

It can often seem like storytellers confuse ‘prequel’ with ‘prologue,’ when telling the story of a time before. Functionally the prologue is a brief pre-introduction meant to build context on the state of the world. That functionality is why prequel stories in a story world where the concept of “lore” (be it from superhero, sci-fi, […]

“Giants” #2

By Reed Hinckley-Barnes | Jan 5, 2018 | Reviews

In the first line of their proposal for “Giants,” the Valderrama brothers wrote, “Ambition is the monster that grows until it devours you.” With this second issue, we begin to see the truth of that start to come to light, as well as some actual giant monsters. Careful, as there are some spoilers ahead. Written […]

“Batman and The Signal”#1

By Gustavo S Lodi | Jan 5, 2018 | Reviews

The comic history of Duke Thomas might be brief when compared to longer-lasting characters but since his introduction in Snyder’s and Capullo’s “Batman,” he has made quite an impression across the DC universe. From that original arc in ‘Zero Year’ to the “We Are Robin” series to his presence in “Dark Nights: Metal” and “All-Star […]
