Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead’s “Welcome to the Tombs” [Review]

By David Harper | Apr 1, 2013 | Reviews

On an unfortunate evening of scheduling, Game of Thrones had its season premiere at the same time as The Walking Dead had its finale. One show being perhaps the greatest production on television of the day, and the other being The Walking Dead. How did The Walking Dead stand up? Find out below, in our […]

Ten Thoughts on Game of Thrones’ “Valar Dohaeris”

By Matthew Meylikhov | Apr 1, 2013 | Reviews

What? Ten thoughts? Isn’t this supposed to be a five thought column? Well, I’m sorry, but there is just too much exciting stuff to talk about to be condensed into five thoughts. I’ll keep them short overall, no worries, but I’m a glutton for writing — and, come on, there’s some cool stuff in this […]

Five Thoughts on Doctor Who’s “The Bells of Saint John”

By Matthew Meylikhov | Mar 31, 2013 | Reviews

Oh boy, Doctor Who is back! Hopefully after everyone complained about the first half of this season we can all sit down and enjoy the second half together, right? … Right? Ok, lets get on with it, then. Switching to the five thoughts format instead of essay format, here are some reactions to this week’s […]

Review: Time Warp #1

By Brian Salvatore | Mar 29, 2013 | Reviews

Although it is literally right there in the title, the fact that most of these stories deals with time travel in some sort of theoretical fashion was still a bit of a surprise for me. Maybe it shouldn’t have been, but oh well. At least the solicit doesn’t make a Rocky Horror Picture…ah, damn it. […]

Five Thoughts on Arrow’s “Salvation” [Review]

By James Johnston | Mar 29, 2013 | Reviews

1.) So about that upswing from before the break… I mentioned a while back that Arrow was growing into a pretty exciting series and… well combined with last week’s mediocre run I believe that ship has sailed. Maybe it’s the contradictory writing or the subplots that bring Ollie’s relatively exciting segments to a screeching halt but this show can […]

Review: Planetoid #5

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 29, 2013 | Reviews

Ken Garing’s terrific self-made debut comes to an end in an issue that is both extremely poignant, but also encompasses everything that made the series exciting to follow. Written & Illustrated by Ken Garing Warfare ensues as the tyrannical forces of the Ono Mao attempt to wipe out the planetoid’s only hope for civilization! When […]

Review: Aquaman #18

By Zach Wilkerson | Mar 29, 2013 | Reviews

The second of Geoff Johns books continuing on the heels of the ‘Throne of Atlantis’ crossover, “Aquaman” #18 plays with the series’ fun new status quo and sets up major conflicts. Written by Geoff Johns Illustrated by Paul Pelletier • The critically-acclaimed adventures of Aquaman continue with “DEATH OF A KING.” • Unfolding out of […]

Review: The Answer! #3

By Michelle White | Mar 29, 2013 | Reviews

The first issue of this Dark Horse miniseries about a genius librarian and masked vigilante was clever and engaging, and the second issue kicked the kookiness up an extra notch. What sort of twists await us now that we’ve gotten this far? Written by Dennis Hopeless Illustrated by Mike Norton While Devin is living out […]

Review: Guardians of the Galaxy #1

By Matthew Meylikhov | Mar 29, 2013 | Reviews

One of the most anticipated relaunches of the Marvel NOW! world was released this week. Does it match “All-New X-Men and “Uncanny X-Men,” or is it more of “Age of Ultron?” Find out in the review below. Written by Brian Michael Bendis Illustrated by Steve McNiven There’s a new rule in the galaxy: No one […]

Review: Green Hornet #1

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 28, 2013 | Reviews

Mark Waid is comics go-to revival man. Want to relaunch a character with a fresh take, but focused on the traits that made them great? Then getting Mark Waid is a safe bet. After all, his recent takes on Daredevil, The Rocketeer, Hulk, and Steed and Mrs. Peel all were varying levels of enjoyable comic […]

Review: Five Weapons #2

By Michelle White | Mar 28, 2013 | Reviews

So we kind of loved the first issue of this miniseries – but then, what’s not to love about a boarding-school story where there are kids learning to be assassins? It didn’t hurt that our hero, Tyler, was just about the classiest take on the non-violent smart kid ever. Written and Illustrated by Jimmie Robinson […]

Review: Uncanny Avengers #5

By Brian Salvatore | Mar 28, 2013 | Reviews

It would be hard pressed to find someone who was initially more down on the idea of “Uncanny Avengers” than yours truly. What seemed, at the time, to be a cash grab, has emerged into a solid, fun and, yes, delayed comic. This issue acts as an epilogue of sorts for the initial arc, drawn […]

Review: The Massive #10

By Walt Richardson | Mar 28, 2013 | Reviews

Not too long ago, we asked Brian Wood what cultural identity means in the post-Crash world of “The Massive.” In this issue, we get to see at least a little bit of his answer (well, he answered us last time, but now through story). Written by Brian Wood Illustrated by Gary Erskine The Kapital finally […]

Pick of the Week: East of West #1

By Zach Wilkerson | Mar 28, 2013 | Reviews

Years after hitting it big at Marvel with his runs on “Fantastic Four” and “FF,” Jonathan Hickman remains committed to his creator owned works. The newest of which, “East of West,” sees Hickman teaming up with “FF” collaborator Nick Dragotta for what looks to be one of his grandest endeavors yet. Written by Jonathan Hickman […]

G.I. JOEversity: G.I. Joe Special Missions # 1 [Review]

By Chad Bowers | Mar 25, 2013 | Reviews

The second title in IDW’s G.I. Joe relaunch, “G.I. Joe: Special Missions” #1 hit comics shelves and Comixology last week, and with it, the return of a handful of Joes who aren’t quite finished dealing with the fallout from the previous ongoing series.

Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead’s “This Sorrowful Life” [Review]

By David Harper | Mar 25, 2013 | Reviews

After Matt took a week to share what other Multiversity staff members were thinking of when it comes to The Walking Dead’s television show, I’m back to give you a bit more of the bright side of things. As I’ve shared before, I don’t hate this show. It’s intermittently frustrating, but often, it’s very entertaining […]

Review: GI Joe #2

By Brian Salvatore | Mar 22, 2013 | Reviews

After reading issue #1, I was interested enough to check out a second issue of the new “GI Joe” ongoing, which was already something of a shock to my system. Would I be coming back for a third taste? Written by Fred Van Lente Illustrated by Steve Kurth HOMEFRONT! The G.I. Joe team battles Cobra […]

Review: Mystery Society Special 2013

By Michelle White | Mar 22, 2013 | Reviews

2010’s miniseries “Mystery Society” was remarkable for a lot of things, from Steve Niles’ fun and inventive script to the smooth and lovely art from Fiona Staples. It’s about time this Gothic series about a myth-investigating duo and their madcap team revisited the shelves – but with a new artist and a scaled-down story, does […]

Review: My Little Pony Micro-Series – Rainbow Dash

By Matthew Meylikhov | Mar 22, 2013 | Reviews

I just want to make something clear right out the gate. I know Ryan Lindsay. We roomed together at Emerald City Comic Con. We’ve shared beers, laughs and inside jokes. I also know absolutely nothing about My Little Pony. I mean, I guess I understand that they’re ponies, and that they’re smaller than a normal […]

Review: Justice League #18

By Zach Wilkerson | Mar 22, 2013 | Reviews

After fending off an incursion from the seas, it’s time for a good old fashioned recruitment drive in “Justice League” #18. Written by Geoff Johns Illustrated by Jesus Saiz (Back-Up by Gary Frank) • Cyborg takes center stage as events fall into place for next month’s massive new story arc: “OFF THE GRID”! • Also, […]
