Jon-C17 reviewed Blackcross #1 Apr 5, 2015
It was a neat style. Definitely a story I want to check out, but this first issue definitely did not grab my attention as a 'wow' issue. Perhaps it's a slow build, but I'd need to check out issue #2 before making sense of this first one.

Jon-C17 reviewed Bitch Planet #1 Jan 24, 2015
Pretty good. Crazy action, scifi and prison riots. Cool art and to-the-point writing. Good first issue, looking forward to more.
2014 Best Writer Eisner Award nominee KELLY SUE DeCONNICK (PRETTY DEADLY, Captain Marvel) and VALENTINE DE LANDRO (X-Factor) team up for the very third time to bring you the premiere issue of BITCH PLANET, their highly-anticipated women-in-prison sci-fi exploitation riff.

Jon-C17 reviewed Ant-Man #1 Jan 24, 2015
I was not a fan. I see that many people enjoyed it, but there are a few problems for me with this. Firstly, Ant-Man is just not my thing. I don't think the power is interesting and the entire history of how Scott Lang gets the suit just doesn't interest me either. Secondly, the off the cuff sense of humor doesn't really work. I found none of it funny, just a lot of self-deprecating rambling. Th more
• Scott Lang has never exactly been the world's best super hero. Heck, most people don't even think he's been the best ANT-MAN -- and the last guy invented Ultron and joined the Masters of Evil, so that's saying something.
• But when the SUPERIOR IRON MAN calls with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Scott's going to ge...

Jon-C17 reviewed Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman #18 Jan 19, 2015
