By Joe Skonce | Oct 22, 2020 | Reviews

If there’s one thing that most people know about Batman, it’s that he’s incredibly wealthy.

The Webcomics Weekly #109: Punny Webcomics of Webtoons (10/20/2020 Edition)

By Multiversity Staff | Oct 20, 2020 | Reviews

In two weeks it's election day here in the States and I feel like it's the weeks leading up to the end of 2012 again. Hopefully soon we can "Trekker" on into "A Better Place" that isn't quite in "The Otherknown" and maybe we'll even find a "Suitor Armor." And if not, at least I nailed that sentence. High five!

“Angel Sanctuary 11 & 12”

By Justin McGuire | Oct 18, 2020 | Reviews

At just over the half-way mark, we’ve finished our journey through Hell and leave Lucifer to begin the Book of Heaven. The half-way mark of a manga marathon is difficult to review.

By Robbie Pleasant | Oct 16, 2020 | Reviews

Warhammer 40,000, the popular tabletop miniatures war game, has come to Marvel Comics.

“Chasin’ the Bird: Charlie Parker in California”

By Johnny Hall | Oct 15, 2020 | Reviews

It is no deep revelation that a strong relationship exists between math and music. Twelve notes in total, and countless variations thereof spinning out into the infinite, with the most virtuosic using the geometry of music to create a language. The dominant language of the music scene in the mid-20th century was jazz, and nobody, […]

“Dark Nights: Death Metal” #4

By Alexander Jones | Oct 15, 2020 | Reviews

“Dark Nights: Death Metal” has been promising major developments but can the series stay focused long enough to actually make the plot feel important?
