Wrapping Wednesday: Micro Reviews for the Week of 12/11/13

By Multiversity Staff | Dec 13, 2013 | 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 […]

Review: Amazing Spider-Man #700.3

By Vince Ostrowski | Dec 13, 2013 | Reviews

Marvel’s “point” numbering system may be irritating as all hell, and the premature revisitation to the Peter Parker identity of Spider-Man feels a lot like placating a certain type of fan, but Joe Casey’s entry into the “event” is a solid story that mixes a classic Parker scrape with his penchant for deconstructing aspects of […]

Review: Justice League 3000 #1

Review: Drumhellar #2

By Michelle White | Dec 12, 2013 | Reviews

“Drumhellar” impressed us right out of the gate with its cheerful mix of humour, psychedelics and the paranormal, and with this second issue it continues to surprise and delight – if your definition of “surprise and delight” includes a vengeful bog-man, and I’m pretty sure it does. Written by Alex Link and Riley Rossmo Illustrated […]

Review: Manifest Destiny #2

By Vince Ostrowski | Dec 12, 2013 | Reviews

“Manifest Destiny” is the latest, and perhaps most vital, entry into the “alternate history” genre that comics like to play around in quite often.

5 Thoughts on Arrow’s “Three Ghosts” [Review]

By Brian Salvatore | Dec 12, 2013 | Reviews

With tonight’s mid-season finale, Arrow continues to establish itself as a really fun, if not at times a little cheesy, romp through the DC Universe. 1.

Five Thoughts On Almost Human’s “Blood Brothers” [Review]

By Alice W. Castle | Dec 10, 2013 | Reviews

This show just gets better and better, doesn’t it? When I first saw advertising for the pilot floating around I thought we’d be getting another go around at a show like Fringe, but set in the future and with, well, robot cops. Instead, this is punching well above it’s weight by having fully realised characters […]

By Michelle White | Dec 6, 2013 | Reviews
