“The Sacrifice of Darkness”

By Kate Kosturski | Dec 2, 2020 | Reviews

If there is anything 2020 has taught us, it is to find blessings wherever we can see them, to grasp on to moments of hope. As we close out the year on the precipice (at least here in the United States) of a very dark pandemic winter, “The Sacrifice of Darkness” provides us with that […]

The Webcomics Weekly #115: Post-Tryptophan Scroll (12/1/2020 Edition)

By Multiversity Staff | Dec 1, 2020 | Reviews

It's that time of the week again. Time to dive into some webcomic reviews and see what the winds bring us. I am still in a food coma but there are many in the country who are struggling with food so if you can, donate to your local food bank. They could really use the food and/or the money to purchase a more flexible variety of items, which often include non-food necessities like toilet paper, soap, etc. Feeding America has a whole list of ones "in network" but check with local governmental pages or even state pages to see where the nearest pantry is to you (mine is never listed on these big registries, hence the disclaimer.)

“Power Pack” #1

By Jacob Cordas | Nov 30, 2020 | Reviews

“Power Pack” #1 is so goddamn cute. I circled different words, tried different phrasing, even burned through thesaurus.com to find something might work better but not nothing does. “Power Pack” is cute to its core and I am here for it. Written by Ryan North Illustrated by Nico Lean Colored by Rachelle Rosenberg Lettered by […]

By Multiversity Staff | Nov 30, 2020 | Reviews

There’s 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 great […]

“Suicide Squad” #11

By Alexander Jones | Nov 26, 2020 | Reviews

Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo feel like they broke new ground in their run on “Suicide Squad.” The series has featured a group of new characters with Osita alongside Suicide Squad staples like Deadshot. It is remarkable to consider just how adventurous this run has been. Taylor immediately moved on from Amanda Waller in the […]

“Displacement”

By Paul Lai | Nov 24, 2020 | Reviews

In “Displacement” (First Second), Kiku Hughes avails herself of several gifts of comics craft to imaginatively inhabit the hard and human history of the WWII Japanese American incarceration camps, which Hughes’ grandmother endured as a young woman, where a time-displaced Hughes winds up by a magic of fiction. “Displacement” utilizes how comics can bend time […]

The Webcomics Weekly #114: Webcomic Sweep (11/24/2020 Edition)

By Multiversity Staff | Nov 24, 2020 | Reviews

I hope everyone is staying safe this week as it's Thanksgiving here in the States. Maybe celebrate by reading some comics by Indigenous/Native/First Nations peoples instead of the pilgrims with a bird they wouldn't have eaten this year. Anyway! Webcomics! We got the continuation of "Lavender Jack," some "Kwi Comics," a different look at a comic from last week "The First Night with the Duke" and Elias' continued project of writing way too many words about the adaptation differences of "Tower of God" and Tower of God. Enjoy y'all!

Remembering Amalgam: Iron Lantern #1 and Final Thoughts

By Drew Bradley | Nov 23, 2020 | Reviews

It’s been 25 weeks since retro-reviews of Amalgam Comics began appearing on Multiversity, and even longer since I began researching and reading them in preparation. Today we finally reach the end of our journey with a review of “Iron Lantern”, the only Amalgam comic I read in 1997 as a starry eyed 12 year old. […]

“Widowmakers: Red Guardian and Yelena Belova” #1

By Matthew Blair | Nov 20, 2020 | Reviews

It’s interesting to see how the real world has impacted the creation and development of comic books, especially in the pop culture landscape of American superhero comics. It used to be that our brave, square jawed American heroes got their start fighting the vile Nazis from the late 1930’s to the mid 1940’s, then they […]

“Juggernaut” #3

By Jaina Hill | Nov 20, 2020 | Reviews

I hear creators of classic comics (especially “X-Men” comics) talking a lot of smack about contemporary books. Some of them, like Chris Claremont, have arguably earned the right. Others, like Rob Liefeld, have definitely not. But one person who you never hear say a bad word about anyone is Fabian Nicieza. Instead, he seems to […]

“Sea of Sorrows” #1

By Kobi Bordoley | Nov 19, 2020 | Reviews

“Sea of Sorrows” #1 paints a sordid world full of ink black seas, mercenary sailors, underwater horrors, and the terrors of a recently fought war. Grim fare indeed, but it makes for solid, gather-round-the-table storytelling. Grab your ale, don your raincoat, head to the port and sing your favorite sea shanty of love lost and […]

“Supernatural: Origins”

By Kate Kosturski | Nov 19, 2020 | Reviews

Tonight marks the end of the WB/CW’s Supernatural, a show that exceeded expectations on many levels.

Instead, I bring you your bi-weekly dose of "A Better Place," the surreal return of a surreal review of a surreal comic "Mr. Boop," and something new with "The First Night with the Duke." Enjoy y'all.
