The amount of ideas per page in this title are staggering. Joe Casey and friends should be admired for putting out such a challenging product. They need to start grounding some of these ideas or readers may not care much longer.

This is yet another issue in a stellar series that will totally grip fans emotionally. Sheltered has been an insane roller coaster ride that continues to let up.

Captain Midnight has an okay first issue, but there is nothing that is incredibly complex here. Something else on the stands is probably more worthy of your time.

Gamma has some great artwork, and uninspiring writing. The series can not be recommended with so many other great titles littering the stands.

Uncanny delivers a strong spy thriller that will hopefully feature a heightened amount of depth going forward. Readers should purchase this title without hesitation as the fun continues in this issue.

Blood Brothers offers a slightly above average first issue with some beautiful artwork. Readers interested in a tale about Vampires skewing slightly more comical should take a look. Others should take a wait and see approach.

This project has a lot of potential if Gerard Way could just start the story already and focus on the characters that are previously setup. This issue is once again drawn beautifully by the wonderful Becky Cloonan.

Christmas and Brisson both have a winner on their hands here. The writing is interesting and easy to digest, while the artwork is elegant and beautiful. Try out this brand new independent title with no hesitation.

Vaughan and company may not care about you, but they do love you. The proof lies in this beautiful comic that the three of them have crafted. When this title comes out savor it, because thiswork of artis truly beautiful.

The world that Brian K. Vaughan has crafted is so fascinating and realistic that it makes the comic a real page turner. The basic plot is a familiar one, but with all of the interesting pieces spread throughout the story, the comic almost distracted you from its simple plot and drew you head first into the world. Disguises and shadowy intrigue will keep readers coming back for more as Vaughan continues delivering comic books that will capture your imagination.

Saga #6 wraps up the first arc of an extremely well done comic book series so far. We get everything from last minute suspense to a perfect ending in this landmark issue. With a name like Saga, hopefully this series will be sticking around for a long, long time. It would be a shame otherwise. If you arent reading this book, start. If you have been reading this book, it is your job to show your comic book reading friends the true joys of what is probably the best series on the market now.

I think that once this book gets in its groove, itll be great. As a first issue though, and a standard-sized one at that, its so different from what came before that this awkwardness was impossible to avoid.

Its hard to imagine a better first issue for a superhero comic. This is a fantastic experience that I highly recommend to any DC fan. Big in scope with plenty of great characters, give it a go!
