“Green Goblin” #7

By | Aug 16, 2021 | Reviews

Marvel’s “Green Goblin” series only lasted 13 issues, meaning we’ve officially hit the midpoint of the series. Issue #5 gave us a mission statement about Phil as a character, with #6 setting up the next arc of the series. Liz Allan-Osborn appears at the Daily Bugle, stating that someone had stolen her late-husband Harry’s property, […]

“Copperhead” #11

By | Aug 15, 2021 | Reviews

A great deal of change occurs within the pages of “Copperhead” #11. The previous issue concluded ‘year one’ of the series and thus this installment sets up story threads that will be explored in the remaining chapters. The issue is packed with revealing character moments and game changing plot developments. The most noticeable change, however, […]

Chris Claremont puts time into Fixit’s journey to Madripor in a subplot that allows him to introduce Fixit’s character to us the reader. This is done in three mini plots that take […]

“Green Goblin” #6

By | Aug 9, 2021 | Reviews

Issue #5 gave us a surprisingly introspective story, playing to the strengths of the series’s writing. Even with a lot of the structural and pacing issues of the early chapters, and often through some cheesy dialog, DeFalco has always had a grasp on Phil as a character. Giving his inner-conflicts the spotlight was a welcome […]

“Copperhead” #10

By | Aug 8, 2021 | Reviews

One thing I love about the “Copperhead” series is that each new chapter provides the reader with an experience that differs from the preceding chapter and the one that will come after it. “Copperhead” #9 was similar in tone to a film like Stagecoach, in that we had a core group of characters from vastly […]
