Review: The Private Eye #1

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 20, 2013 | Reviews

Whether you’re fans of their music or not, it’d be tough to argue with the idea that Radiohead was one of the most important and influential bands of the 2000’s. Fans who bought In Rainbows digitally on the week that they released it will probably never forget what that felt like. It was DRM-free and […]

Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead’s “Prey” [Review]

By Matthew Meylikhov | Mar 18, 2013 | Reviews

Well, it finally happened: so many of you wanted David not to review the Walking Dead that now I am stepping in to throw down some comments. Be careful what you wish for, right? Enough preamble. Lets get to the part you’re here for. 1. What a Miserable Show There are three episodes left, so […]

Review: Ultimate Comics Wolverine #1

By Matthew Meylikhov | Mar 15, 2013 | Reviews

Two “Wolverine” #1’s this week! Oh, Marvel. You’re spoiling us. Well, not really. Written by Cullen Bunn Illustrated by David Messina • Jimmy Hudson’s quest to discover the answers about his past begins here! • What mission was Wolverine on that led to the birth of Jimmy? • A story that will rock the Ultimate […]

Review: Nowhere Men #4

By Michelle White | Mar 15, 2013 | Reviews

So – when Multiversity last checked in with “Nowhere Men,” things were very aesthetically pleasing but maybe on the shallow side. How does this bright, retro-futuristic series fare, two more issues down the line? Written by Eric Stephenson Illustrated by Nate Bellegarde Everybody’s on the run. In a way, that succinct solicit tells you all […]

Review: Age of Ultron #2

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 15, 2013 | Reviews

Usually we have to wait until closer to the end to declare an event book underwhelming. This one underwhelms right up front. Written by Brian Michael Bendis Illustrated by Bryan Hitch For years the heroes of the Marvel Universe have lived in fear that the artificial intelligence known as Ultron would one day evolve to […]

Review: Batman and Robin #18

By Zach Wilkerson | Mar 15, 2013 | Reviews

Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason have the unenviable task of following up on the devastating “Batman Incorporated” #8. While this could have easily been a melodramatic filler issue, “Batman and Robin” #18 is a wonderful treatise on the Batman and Robin relationship, and graphic story-telling in general. Spoiler Warning for “Batman Incorporated” #8. Written by […]

Review: Batman #18

By Walt Richardson | Mar 15, 2013 | Reviews

I’d warn you about spoilers for the latest “Batman Incorporated,” but if nerds on Twitter didn’t already ruin that for you, that cover certainly did. There are also some minor thematic spoilers for the issue itself, but it’s so by-the-books it doesn’t really matter. As you can see, I’m very enthusiastic about this comic. Written […]

Review: Peter Panzerfaust #10

By Michelle White | Mar 14, 2013 | Reviews

Let’s just take a moment to contemplate how badass that cover is. Written by Kurtis J. Wiebe Illustrated by Tyler Jenkins “PARIS” Conclusion The aftermath of a dangerous rescue mission leaves the group fractured and forever changes the face of their war. While the last issue ended on the bleakest note yet, with Peter and […]

The best there is at what he does gets an all-new on-going! Pay attention very closely: there’s a mystery here that even Wolverine […]

Pick of the Week: Change #4

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 14, 2013 | Reviews

One of the central characters in Ales Kot’s “Change” said that “Everything we do is a self-portrait.” If that is in fact the case, then this miniseries paints Kot as Picasso from his cubist period. Like a painting in which we can see all sides of an object, Kot unpacks his mind into a very […]

Valiant (Re)visions: Bloodshot #9 and Archer & Armstrong #8 [Review]

By David Harper and Brandon Burpee | Mar 13, 2013 | Reviews

David: Brandon, it’s time for the tango you and I love. It’s time for your #2 book and my #2 book in the Valiant Universe to square off, once and for all, like Gamma vs. tiny armed Bloodshot. Or, you know, for this week of books. Let’s kick it off with Bloodshot #9 from Duane […]

Mignolaversity: Sledgehammer ’44 #1 [Review]

By Brian Salvatore and David Harper | Mar 13, 2013 | Reviews

When this issue was solicited, we presumed that this would be a title on the fringe of the Mignolaverse, with only limited ties to the modern day B.P.R.D. titles. Boy were we wrong. Written by Mike Mignola and John Arcudi Illustrated by Jason LaTour August 1944: a man in a suit of iron armor drops […]

Five Thoughts on The Walking Dead’s “Arrow on the Doorpost” [Review]

By David Harper | Mar 11, 2013 | Reviews

After a week off to get my mind “Clear,” I’m back with five thoughts on this week’s episode of The Walking Dead, titled “Arrow on the Doorpost.” What did I think? Are there things getting back on track? You can find out what I think below. Also, spoilers will be heavily discussed, so if you […]

Review: Snapshot #2

By Michelle White | Mar 8, 2013 | Reviews

This creator-owned miniseries from Diggle and Jock got a strong – if kind of far-fetched – start with an innovative and fast-paced first issue. The fast pace definitely keeps up in this issue, and as the plot gets ever more complex, the story stretches the limits of credibility while the art hits new highs. Written […]

Review: Phantom Stranger #6

By Zach Wilkerson | Mar 8, 2013 | Reviews

DC has billed “Phantom Stranger” as an important piece of the overall New 52 universe. Plotted by co-publisher Dan Didio, starring a member of the “Trinity of Sin,” the book is sure to play a large role in the upcoming “Trinity War” event. Unfortunately, the Stranger’s solo adventures just haven’t been very good. Does the […]

Review: Green Arrow #18

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 8, 2013 | Reviews

One of DC Comics’ most reliable bullpen writers was given the unenviable task of pulling Oliver Queen out of a mess left by 16 mostly forgettable-at-best, incomprehensible-at-worst issues of “Green Arrow.” Let’s see how he’s doing so far. Written by Jeff Lemire Illustrated by Andrea Sorrentino • Oliver Queen has lost everything: His company, his […]

Review: Mara #3

By Walt Richardson | Mar 8, 2013 | Reviews

While I love both Brian Wood and Ming Doyle’s work, the first issue of “Mara” did not quite sell me. Still, I stuck around for the second, and was much more impressed by what I saw. As we reach the halfway point, is the team behind the volleyball playing super-lady able to completely tip the […]

Review: Lost Vegas #1

By Zach Wilkerson | Mar 7, 2013 | Reviews

From the critically acclaimed team behind “Return of the Dapper Men,” “Lost Vegas” combines the glamorous vice of our own Sin City with a brilliant sci-fi mythology. This makes for a refreshing new series that stands out in the sea of creator owned books. Written by Jim McCann Illustrated by Janet Lee The EISNER AWARD-WINNING […]

Review: Bedlam #5

By Michelle White | Mar 7, 2013 | Reviews

Last issue brought some big reveals, and gave us an idea as to killer’s identity – or at the very least, his motivations. Now it’s down Detective Acevedo and her very unusual sidekick to delve deeper into the mystery. Written by Nick Spencer Illustrated by Riley Rossmo “A great weeping.” After getting a couple extremely […]

Review: Sex #1

By Vince Ostrowski | Mar 7, 2013 | Reviews

Joe Casey and Image Comics spent plenty of time using the old adage “sex sells” to, well, sell “Sex”. Turns out they weren’t kidding around. Written by Joe Casey Illustrated by Piotr Kowalski FIRST ISSUE – COLLECTOR’S ITEM! Finally, a good reason for you come in the comic book store — to buy SEX! Simon […]
