Oct 6, 2022 |
A nice 90's throwback, Revolvers #1 is a formulaic opening chapter that saves itself with some heavy metal visuals and enough enticing lore to keep readers interested. |

Jul 12, 2021 |
While still semi-entertaining, this Aliens sequel comic throws new ideas at the Alien wall of mythos and very little sticks; least of all its cast of disposable characters. |

Action Comics (2016) Annual: Midnighter 2021
Aug 31, 2021 |
Midnighter Annual 2021 is a decently entertaining one-shot that suffers from its connections with other DC Comics events. Cloonan and Conrad manage to smooth over of the more obtuse references and get the gist of the story without too much exposition. However, it still feels like walking into the middle of a conversation. |
