A Game of Thrones #1
Sep 22, 2011 |
The Game of Thrones comic also appears to be less adult oriented than the HBO series. It's more of a teen reader friendly comic with only the occasional beheading and blade through the eye... and no outright nudity. This book isn't trying to ape the HBO series and its version of the characters and the threat beyond the Wall seem to be intentionally different for the most part. This comic may be best suited for people unwilling to read Martin's novel all the way through. I've no doubt that the comic will eventually cover the entirety of the first novel, but at this rate its going to be a very long time before readers of the comic catch up to what people have already seen on HBO. |

The bulk of the pages are by Gimenez and he does a serviceable job. However, there are definitely pages that look rushed and sketchy. It's not that the main story could have been saved by the artwork alone, but it certainly would have helped if there was a single artist throughout the entire storyline who was at the top of his game. Great art can help you forgive a mediocre story. Average art will never have the same effect. When it comes to ending a story, Cornell seems to have a solid grasp on what's going to satisfy an audience. Unfortunately, the journey to get to that point wasn't as enjoyable as it should have been. |

Stephen Segovia is also a very talented artist, but his style simply doesn't flow very well with Zircher's pages. By abruptly cutting from Segovia to Zircher on more than one occasion, this issue is less fun to read. But the story is fun and engaging, and that's the most important part of the equation. |

It's amazing that Action Comics keeps playing up the consequences of Booster Gold's time travel decisions and yet feels completely inconsequential.

We do feel like the constant betrayals of Batman may be Synder's way of making this issue's primary story seem more important than it actually is. We're not fans of the old bait and switch, and frankly, we're starting to think that's where Synder is going with it. That does temper our impression of the book.

Credit where credit is due, Charles Soule pulled off a good twist in this issue. What's really impressive is that Soule clearly set this event in motion during the previous issues, but he didn't draw too much attention to it at the time. Just a few pages and panels, here and there. But it really works. |

Avengers (2016) #1
Nov 2, 2016 |
Another intriguing aspect of the new Kang war, is that it was started by one of the Avengers themselves. That twist was built on something that happened during Waid's last Avengers series; which may be off-putting for anyone who missed that the first time. But it's also a welcome sign that Waid has long term stories in mind for this series, and there's even a one-page "trailer" for the next few issues. Minor problems aside, this was a very exciting read, and we're eager to see what's next for these Avengers. |

Mark Waid throws in some genuine surprises that feel in character for everyone, including Octopus' scheming, Scarlet Witch and Vision's alone time, and a character's decision to lie at a key moment in the battle. That makes one of the few heroic members of the team complicit in a pretty brutal atrocity, which could have some very interesting fallout. |

Batgirl # 7 is a very strange beast. Barbara Gordon finally arrives back in Burnside, and even she's calling it a "parallel Burnside" where the tech industry has started to force out the local shops and drive up the rents at a ridiculous rate. While that is a very modern problem, it's introduced in a very jarring way as Larson appears to write out the majority of Babs' supporting cast. |

There's really not enough here to make a judgment about the new Oracle as a villain, since we don't even have any suspects yet. In theory, a hacker who can outwit Barbara Gordon should be a formidable foe, but the Barbara Gordon Batgirl that we got in this issue was seriously off of her game. The Bensons had such a good take on Black Canary that it's curious that both Batgirl and Huntress came off poorly by comparison. For this revival book to work, all three leads have to be well-rounded characters and worthy heroines. Though they were not in this issue, we are hopeful that the series will develop each character individually. |

It's a shame, because until the clown and his captives showed up, this issue was really firing on all cylinders. It's still one of the best books out this week, it just betrayed one of its own central themes. The team that's trying to be more than just superheroes were quickly sucked into a pretty standard superhero plot. Given Waid's experience, we still feel that Champions has the potential to be a great book, but that's going to require Waid and Ramos to show us stories that we haven't seen many times before. So far, they haven't. That said, we're still very curious to see what they can do with these next gen heroes. |

Death of X #1 was at its best during the brief fighting scenes, which allowed Lemire and Soule to let Kuder cut loose on the book. We can't fault Kuder on this one, but we expect more from talented writers like Lemire and Soule. Both of them need to remind us why we love the X-Men and why we should love the Inhumans. Because right now, it's a pretty one-sided conflict. If you've ever loved Marvel's mutants, chances are good that you're already rooting for them in this fight. Nothing the Inhumans did in this issue will change that. |

Conner and Palmiotti have done an excellent job of making the readers care about Harley, and John Timms really delivers on that big moment. Timms' art has been easy to overlook, but his improvement has made the book even more enjoyable. |

Harley Quinn's tone has taken a pretty dramatic turn in the last two issues. It's a very big departure from the majority of Palmiotti & Conner's run. So much so that adding this new layer of tragedy to Harley feels inconsistent with the comedic identity that this book had established. |

Without it, both Grayson and Shawn are less interesting than they were earlier in Seeley's time on the book. It's not enough to make me quit reading, but I hope the final journey is worth it. |

I'm not sure what has happened to Adam Kubert's art style over the last few years, but I am not digging it. It just feels so unfinished compared to his work from earlier in his career. It doesn't help that Kubert is on the comedy Spider-Man book, and there's nothing inherently humorous about his art. |

Of course, it just wouldn't be Tarzan or the Planet of the Apes without a little tragedy to get the story going. By the end of the issue, young Tarzan and Milo faced the loss of someone important to them as the Tarzan of the present edged closer to reuniting with someone from his past. As an opening chapter in the miniseries, it was very effective at baiting the hook for the rest of the story. That's what all comics, not just crossovers, should aspire to. |

However, until the artwork in this book is more consistently executed, I can't recommend it as highly as I would like to. |

Gail Simone has believably forged a bond between Conan and Diana that seems destined to break when he goes back to Marvel next year. In the interim, there's some genuinely moving material here. |

Somebody needs to get Height on a full time X-Men book immediately. That's exactly the kind of art that this book needs. The script narrowly misses the mark, but the artwork more than makes up for it. |

It's refreshing when writers embrace continuity and build on it instead of pretending that the previous stories didn't happen. Cullen Bunn actually picks up a few threads from Brian Bendis' All-New X-Men run, and he even remembers that Young Cyclops wasn't around for that particular tale. |

It felt like the early issues of X-Men Blue were more interested in rebooting classic threats rather than introducing something new. Issue #5 doesn't really break from that trend, but it's at least drawing from more recent characters who I didn't really expect to see again. Unfortunately, the personalities that made these characters interesting in another universe don't seem to have made the transition. |

This issue feels very much like a fill-in, even though Bunn offers some small advancement for Cyclops and Magneto's shared antagonism towards each other. But when it comes to the X-Men, I want more than just filler. |

It's always a thrill to see an artist jump on a X-Men book and immediately nail it. Cory Smith's artwork in the latest issue of X-Men Blue is very impressive, and his characters pop off of the page. Even Jimmy Hudson is improved upon, although he really should lose the "Kid Wolverine" hair. |

This was one of the more entertaining X-books to come out of the recent relaunch, but X-Men: Blue seems to be losing some of the qualities that made it fun. Hopefully the upcoming crossover will turn things around again. |

The second part of "Mojo Worldwide" stumbles a little in this issue by keeping the focus primarily on the X-Men Gold cast and leaving most of the X-Men Blue team to cameo appearances in their own book. |

The artwork by Jorge Molina is at least fun to look at, and I loved seeing the classic costumes in action again. But "Mojo Worldwide" feels like it needs some redemption after this lackluster installment, and good art isn't enough to save it. |

"Mojo Worldwide" is officially a disappointment. But perhaps even more distressing than the lack of real stakes or drama is the fact that this six-part crossover simply fizzled out in the last two installments. |

There is a certain amount of running in place to pad out the storyline. But once the pretenders stand revealed, this "meaningless" tale feels a lot more important in the long run. |

Poison-X feels like a story in search of a much better story that will save it from itself. But it's not going to find one, because this crossover is just a set up for an even larger crossover that could have easily left the X-Men out of it. |

Guggenheim is clearly exploring some of the classic X-Men tropes, but it would be more refreshing if the creative team didn't feel the need to rely on the nostalgia factor. |

It's extremely rare to see the heroes dispatch not one, but two villains so easily within the span of a single issue. But rather than make the heroes look strong, it makes the bad guys look weak by comparison. |

Piskor doesn't hold back from some of the stranger elements in the X-Men's backstory, including the Stranger and (finally) Lucifer. The only truly objectionable thing here is that the second issue abruptly stops and the back of the issue states that more issues of X-Men: Grand Design won't be coming until "late 2018." That just stops the momentum of this series dead in its tracks. |

Davis is also a master at conveying emotions on the faces of his characters, even on Cyclops when a mask obscures most of his face. This is just a really good looking book that happens to be well written as well. I can't speak for everyone, but that's exactly what I want out of a superhero comic. |
