“Star Trek Discovery: The Light of Kahless” #1

By Jaina Hill | Nov 30, 2017 | Reviews

It’s important to note I’ve really been digging Star Trek Discovery. There’s a lot of criticism for the show floating around, but I like the characters, the stories, and the aesthetics of the latest Trek show. Going into the comic book tie-in, I was excited. Would we learn the backstories of minor characters like Lt. […]

By Michael Mazzacane | Nov 30, 2017 | Pick of the Week, Reviews

Calling “Mystik U,” Zatana goes to Hogwarts isn’t wrong, but the creative team understands what it is about that kind of story that makes it an enticing and enjoyable experience as Z and her classmates figure themselves out personally and magically speaking. Written Alisa Kwitney Illustrated by Mike Norton Colored by Jordie Bellair Lettered by […]

“Final Crisis”

By Justin Beeson | Nov 28, 2017 | Reviews

Grant Morrison’s run as writer of “JLA” was the book that hooked me on comics, and I’ve loved most of his other DC work. Even though I bought the “Final Crisis” issues years ago, I never got around to reading them. It’s a work that seems to be more polarizing than Morrison’s generally loved “All-Star […]

“Supergirl” (2005) #34

By Nicholas Palmieri | Nov 27, 2017 | Reviews

In early 2008, the end of my time in middle school, I subscribed via mail to “The Batman Strikes!” so I didn’t have to stake out the Borders comic book rack and hope I didn’t miss an issue. In error, DC ended up sending me “Supergirl” instead. I soon discovered my local comic shop and […]

“Clue” #6

By Elias Rosner | Nov 24, 2017 | Reviews

“Clue” wraps up this week with the sixth and final issue of its strange and funny whodunit. Answers are here, jokes are made, and why do I get the strange feeling that Grant Morrison had a hand in crafting this issue? Beware, many spoilers ahead. This is the reveal issue, after all. Written by Paul […]

“Rick and Morty: Pocket Like You Stole It” #5

By Robbie Pleasant | Nov 23, 2017 | Reviews

The comic based off a parody mobile game based off a TV show comes to an end, as the “Pocket Mortys” saga concludes. Can it match the humor and wit of the show, or even the mobile game? Not really, but it’s alright. Let’s look on, with some spoilers here and there. Written by Tini […]

“Rat Queens” #6

By Jaina Hill | Nov 23, 2017 | Reviews

As I started this new issue of “Rat Queens,” I thought it would be fun and disposable. After a half dozen artists, a renumbering, and loads of other changes, the book had sort of lost its identity. The crackling energy of those early issues had subsided and “Rat Queens” slid into a routine, which would […]

“The Demon: Hell is Earth” #1

By Alexander Jones | Nov 23, 2017 | Reviews

You could argue Brad Walker is one of the strongest artists in DC’s current Rebirth line-up. Giving Walker a fun, off the beaten path type of character like The Demon is a great use of his talent. However, writer Andrew Constant is making his DC debut with the “The Demon: Hell is Earth” #1, a […]

“Doomsday Clock” #1

By Brian Salvatore | Nov 22, 2017 | Reviews

There are some things in life that should never be touched: it’s never a good idea to call up your ex, the wedding cake in the freezer is never going to have the same depth of flavor it did on that happy day, your favorite book from childhood won’t thrill you the same way on […]

I, Parrot Header

“I, Parrot”

By Forrest Sayrs | Nov 21, 2017 | Reviews

“I, Parrot” is aggressively charming. From the simple but expressive figures to the watercolor textures to the agile and clever dialogue, the whole thing seems optimized for maximum charm. This could easily be a criticism of a lesser, more twee work, but somehow it manages to make the whole package relatable without sacrificing the emotional […]

Everything you need to know about “Kill Your Boyfriend” can be found on its back-cover: “Girls meets boy. Girl falls for boy. Boy takes girl on violent rampage through English suburb. Murder, sex, drugs and anarchy follow.” Judging from that blurb, you can probably figure out whether or not “Kill Your Boyfriend” is for you. […]
