Paul Newton reviewed Spider-Man #6 Jul 23, 2016
This was a compelling issue with good characters and an interesting plot. The only issue is the very heavy-handed tie in to Civil war 2. Were this not a Civil War tie in, but another chapter in the Miles Morales story, this issue would be rated higher than an 8.

Rated T
Paul Newton reviewed Star Wars: Darth Vader #23 Jul 23, 2016
The beginning of this issue was rather slow, but the implications the ending proposes makes up for any initial problems.
• Vader vs. Morit on the shell of the Executor!
• DO YOU NEED MORE THAN THAT???
• Fine: Cylo's secret revealed!
Rated T
Paul Newton reviewed Black Widow #5 Jul 23, 2016

Paul Newton rated Vision #9 Jul 22, 2016
• Every family has its share of secrets - skeletons in the closet, kept hidden from the world at large.
• For the Visions, those secrets are real, actual skeletons.
• The thing about secrets is they always have a cost... and one of the Visions is going to pay with their life.
Rated T+

"THE SON OF SUPERMAN" Chapter Three: In #3, with a touch that means death, the Eradicator proves he's a match for Superman, but his super-powered offspring may be more than anyone can handle-including the Man of Tomorrow.
Paul Newton reviewed Justice League #1 Jul 22, 2016
Nothing is wrong with Dc Rebirth's Justice League title. But that being said, there is a feeling of something missing when your reading this current incarnation of the Juice League. Hopefully this title regains the wonder and acclaim that Johns and Morison brought to the team.

Paul Newton reviewed Batman #3 Jul 22, 2016
King's Batman is one of the strongest titles in the Dc Rebirth lineup. It has the perfect mixture of Frank Miller's Batman, and Snyder's Batman. Hopefully this title continues on the path its on, and becomes a classic run for the character.
