BRZRKR: A Faceful of Bullets #1
Jul 24, 2024 |
BRZRKR: A FACEFUL OF BULLETS #1 is a strong and entertaining story from Jason Aaron, Salvador Larroca, Lee Loughridge, and Ed Dukeshire that tells a desperate story of Maybells need to escape and her revenge that could be her downfall and how B fits into helping her make that decision. This issue provides just the right amount of story that can be told in one issue. Theres more that can be told with the characters that B deals with outside of Maybell, and maybe those stories can be told another time. |

Crocodile Black (2024) #3
Jul 10, 2024 |
CROCODILE BLACK remains one of the best books BOOM! Studios have published this year, if not the last few years. Phillip Kennedy Johnson has created an amazing story of mental health being torn down from the inside out and Som, Delpeche, and Carey bringing that story to life in a way only they can. |

Epitaphs From the Abyss (2024) #1
Jul 24, 2024 |
This issue hit the marks for me from cover to cover. Horror and suspense is hard to do in comics, but I think each of these creative teams did a great job and I cannot wait for the next issue. |

Free Agents (2024) #1
Jul 3, 2024 |
FREE AGENTS #1 is a solid launching point for this new series. Busiek and Nicieza lay out an intriguing sci-fi, action/adventure series for readers, and Mooney, Farrell, and Smith put it on the page that deserves attention. All first issues are a time for creative teams and readers to meet each other for the first time on neutral ground, and this issue is a great issue for them to meet for the 100th time, or the first. |

There's a lot to dive into and I think that's what makes this issue worth checking out. You should check it out because there's so many interesting directions Lemire can take Theresa, and the readers, and what more can you ask for in a storyteller? |

Profane (2024) #2

Overall this is a good second issue to a five issue arc. A lot of the players are in motion and readers just have to wait, much like Will, to see what happens next. This is slowly building to a book that could be a joy to go back and re-read once it concludes. |

Space Ghost (2024) #3
Jul 3, 2024 |
This issue is an interesting one because theres a moment that it looked as if Jan might go a different route in order to learn more about what happened to her father, but it only lasted long enough for her to pull a fast one on our villain and the reader. This series continues to be strong and is building a universe out that is complex and entertaining to get to know. |

This is a book I havent heard a lot of people talking about and Im a bit ashamed I havent talked about it more. STANDSTILL #1 is as solid a first issue as Ive read in a while. Intriguing story. Amazing art. All done at the highest level. Easily one of the best first issues Ive read all year. |

Thundercats: Cheetara (2024) #1
Jul 3, 2024 |
This first issue of CHEETARA is a strong start for this miniseries. The cliffhanger at the end is interesting, and is probably going to be the focus of this story. If this issue is an example for how the rest of the series will be, readers are going to have a great time. |

Thundercats: Cheetara (2024) #2
Aug 7, 2024 |
This is a solid second issue to the miniseries. The issue is left with a cliffhanger that could be leaning into Cheetara's vision. We'll have to wait to see what happens in the next issue to confirm. This series continues to be a great addition to the larger Thundercats story that's being told at Dynamite, and I do hope we see more of it down the road. |

Witchblade (2024) #1
Jul 17, 2024 |
WITCHBLADE #1 is a solid first issue. As a long time fan, of course I want more because I know these characters so well, but that's not what this issue is about. Marguerite Bennett has crafted a first issue that has a lot in it for new readers to grab a hold of and possibly become intrigued about and want to come back for more. That's what a first issue needs to do make them want to come back for more. This issue has those moments and there's no doubt readers will want to see more. |

Witchblade (2024) #2
Aug 21, 2024 |
Overall, I think this was a good issue. Bennetts writing remains top notch and the art by Cafaro, Prianto, and Peteri matches that energy and quality. Having been a long time fan of this character theres a lot of been there done that to this issue when it comes to the previous volumes of this series, but acknowledging that this is also someones first time reading these characters is important when reading. Theres plenty of time to get into new territory, and I am just enjoying the ride. |
