Ashley Comic Reviews

Overall this issue wasn't bad at all; in fact I think it will really set up the story to go in a great direction. I find myself wanting to know more about Barbra and how she will continue to handle her newly restored ability to walk. The villain is also very interesting, who she is, and what is her plan. Gail Simone does a great job of making you want to come back for more. I give Batgirl #5, 3 out of 5 Stars.

I would highly recommend not only this issue as a great read but the whole story arc. I've followed Suicide Squad from issue one, and have yet to be disappointed. The art is great as is the writing, and your never left bored. The issue leaves off with the Task Force-X being thrown into all out chaos like they have never seen before. I am defiantly looking forward to reading how the handle this predicament their fellow team mate has left them in, and am giving this issue 4 out of 5 Stars.

This was a great issue; I loved every minute while reading it. I love to see Kara's human side, her emotions, and her heart. Your shown she's vulnerable and this makes her relatable. Even with super human powers she can be hurt. With the introduction to this new character called Reign, we learn important information that has exciting potential for future issues. This story arc has definitely been set up very nicely to captivate the reader, not only by Kara but by the villains she is facing. You want to know more about it all. I highly recommend this issue as a must read, and give it 5 out of 5 Stars.

Over all the issue was a disappointment, I was skeptical of Supernatural being able to be turned into a comic to begin with and this just solidified my fear. It is something that already has a very devoted fan base, with expectations. When they don't stay true to the characters or lose the essence of what Supernatural is, it will show right away. The show has built a great foundation for these characters and it would be amazing to see it come to life in a comic. I do hope the series finds its footing and gives us a great read in the future. Supernatural #4 earns 1.5 out 5 Stars.

Overall I wouldn't recommend this as a must read, although the writing was decent enough. Marvel lost an opportunity to use a multi-issue story arc to really fill readers in on who Laura is. Considering the company will be canceling the series, and moving her to Avengers Academy series, this concern becomes even more important. In a multi-character story arc, it is very easy for characters to get lost. It would have been smart to use these last issues she has to completely tell us her story, leave readers wanting more, and thus following her into the Avengers Academy storyline.
