Overall, this is an exciting start for this series and a very pleasing visual immersion into this world. Its good to see a writer really create something original and not fall back on tried and true. Developing the story from here and building on the solid start can lead to nowhere but success.

Submerged #1

Jul 4, 2018

Overall,Submerged is a unique story full of beauty, sadness, and at it's core hope. The characters will absolutely appeal to Latinx readers but at the same time does not limit it to a specific readership. This is a classic story for humanity and it's written and illustrated beautifully. There is so much submerged below the surface of what's on the pages that readers are sure to enjoy the journey that the creative team is taking them on.

Superman (2018) #1

Jul 11, 2018

Overall this is a very solid issue. It continues the work that was begun in the Man of Steel limited series and seems to be launching us into a new era for Superman. Fortunately, its not something completely brand new but may a return to a golden age of Superman stories. If Bendis continues the work he has done so far then this will be a run long remembered.
