Atomic Robo: The Spectre of Tomorrow #1 does a decent job of introducing its cast but leaves a lot to be desired for fans of the sci-fi and robot genre.

I think the introduction of the plot wasn't executed strongly and sadly leaves me not wanting to continue on.

The issue feels empty with not enough weight carrying it forward to make you feel you're about to read a grand epic with three of the greatest superheroes ever created.

I wasn't enjoying the illustration as much here like I did with the previous book. It just felt like a bit of a step-down to me compared to the last book. At the end though, I was a bit underwhelmed with this trade. I really enjoyed the last one and I think this one just threw too much in when they only had 4 issues to work with. If it would've just been about Jennifer being a coach and Maise working on her rehabilitation training, I think it could've been a more enjoyable book that focuses on the growth of these two women in a sport that they continue to grow to love.

I think this arc could've been a bit better when a bit more thought put into it. I don't like how Willem just shows up and is tossed like a pawn when we were already shown the villain that clearly has big plans for Nightwing. The arc overall feels more like a filler that current fans will still find some enjoyment but it's nothing that can grab new readers. Hopefully, the next arc picks things up and we see a return of the Dark Web because I do believe there's a great story to be told with this villain.

Old fans will still find some enjoyment out of it but if you're not a fan of the blue speedster, you'll end up passing up on him.

With the reintroduction of the characters seemingly finished and finally meeting our main antagonist, I think I would've much rather enjoyed the mystery drugged on a bit longer and focus more on the team trying to rebuild their homes. This is mainly because the series right now is feeling more of the same without trying anything too new.

The art team really had a lot of fun with this issue. All the designs for all the characters that appeared looked great, especially all of the different helmet designs we get to see. They did a great job emphasizing all of the high-speed movement, especially since all of their skills revolve around parkour moves. The dialogue flows really well and never felt confusing on who was talking, especially during a few pages in the fighting panels. When you finish the issue, you're left with a satisfying ending to the immediate problem they were all facing and introduced to a couple of great characters with a mission they still need to continue forward in. The extra characters we meet look fun and will want you to see them more. Hopefully we will see a return of Bonehead for as satisfying this arc is, there is still a lot more to come.

There's still a lot to learn about our new characters and we've really only begun to scratch the surface of this world and its story.

While Duck Tales doesn't offer a story driven direction, it still has the heart and fun many will enjoy if they want to have more Duck Tales in their life.

The art is enjoyable as well because it reminded me a bit of Amanda Conner's style. I can't say anything particular page in the issue really blew me away in terms of "art" but that's not what I was looking for either. The tone is important to get across in your books and this series has the writing and art that go hand in hand together and give us an enjoyable time. If you're someone that enjoys the campiness that comes from Scooby-Doo stories I think you'll enjoy the issue. I also believe that this can be a fun series for young teens to get into. The issue doesn't do anything outstanding in terms of dropping jaws, but it's clear what it's going for and it's doing it very well.

A majority of this issue really is a lot of setup. It's trying to show you who are characters are, they way they interact, the society they live in, and provide a couple of antagonists. I think if there was more focus on just the mystery we were dropped in at the beginning the pacing may have been better.

Even though it seems some steps were taken back in the characters, there is a lot of potential as Renew Your Vows moves on to be an exciting and witty series that still has the heart of being a Spider-Man book.

What makes this series fun is just how uncertain you feel about Martin and what his true goals are. Aphrodite while not having done anything wrong yet, does not mean she will turn around and do something for her own gain. We also now have to wait and see what our antagonist Basilisk has in store for them while deciding if we can really trust Aphrodite or Martin. It's good to have likeable characters but it's great to never feel truly certain what everyone is going to do and I'm ready for more Aphrodite.

Aquaman still brings some action while also slowing down in this issue to revolve more around its plot as we are setting up for the uprising of a new era in Atlantis.

Even though we didn't get too much cooking in this issue, I'm very much interested to see what sort of creations the culinary consultant they brought into the team will bring us. As for a first issue, I'd say this was a well-done appetizer.

Even though there is only really one pivotal moment in this issue, monster fans should check out Giants as it's doing a fine job of not only giving us cool monsters, but we're also given characters with interesting situations on how they need to do what they can to survive.

The art from Skottie and Jean-Francois is still one of the best things to see when you read this series.

What is making this series really enjoyable right now though is this group of heroes, having a team like this is just weird but their personalities bounce off each other really well and gives us a new dynamic to separate themselves from others like the main Justice League and the Suicide Squad.

Murder Falcon #1 starts off well and doesn't waste time with its setup. The method of how Murder Falcon has to fight may be the only thing that readers find odd but it's clear that there is a very human story here and the alien-fighting is just the fun part of the ride.

The groundwork is complete for this series to only continue to build on itself for what can be a fun fantasy adventure for Zatanna and her new friends.

Right now I feel like this issue is a good start. We're introduced to our main character that is very likable. We learn bits about the world everyone is living in and while I found that part to be a little bit dragging at times, it still serves well to give Olivia a place she will have to fight hard to keep her life in it. Olivia Twist offers the beginning of a survival story for someone who is just looking to get away from a terrible situation and just wants to find some peace and a home. With the way the issue ends, I think it may give its readers a desire to continue following this journey.

This essentially feels like an old age Ghostbusters story. It doesn't have a lot of humor as it takes a more serious tone. Even with that, issue #1 tends to be an enjoyable book with layers of unknown waiting to be unraveled.

The Dead Hand is quite an espionage thrill ride to read. I think if this issue was just a bit longer we could've gotten some more proper closure, especially on how Ellis deals with Frederick's death. Current readers will find themselves mixed on certain choices here but it still ends up being a series I recommend for others that missed out on it for when the trade comes out.

I'm still really enjoying the art teams work here, especially the splash of Piotr fighting on his own. I found the style works best with the action panels and for the most part works well when things are calm. It's a style I do think not everyone will enjoy but I just like how it helps mesh everything with how gritty Blackstone as everyone here is meant to look rough like they go through hard times every day. I have not read a lot from Steve Orlando but I have to say that Crude is definitely something everyone should pick up as it stands well among many other books.

Cyber Force keeps the pace up as it grows it's roster of characters while getting us a bit more connected in some of our characters.

View Issue       View Full Review

Cyber Force has a lot here that makes a comic book fun and worth the investment. From its main characters, tragic events, entertaining action, and they want to know more is what continues to bring me back to the series. Even though there is a lot of history with past series, it's very clear that the purpose here is so that new fans could be made kind of like me. The questions of morality with the decision making that comes where you basically trade your life makes these characters real as we know that many are willing to give up a lot just to be with someone. Then there's the part where you make the decision without knowing how the other person will feel and you just hope for the best result but it may not be a very welcoming reaction.

I can't help but continue to enjoy the art team on this series. We had some changes recently but it still looks great as it has in all of the previous issues. The costumes always look spot on and the coloring just makes everything pop really nicely. This franchise just fits so right in comics. Panels are done creatively in certain sequences like the action panels or the morphing sequence. Even though it's still light-hearted, there's still a lot of weight on these characters and the situations they find themselves in are taken very seriously. The run has mostly been pretty grounded with the fights taken on Earth but now we're finally seeing the space epic that power rangers has also been known for and it's looking to be exciting as the new villain makes his presence known.

Monstress issue 20 gives some new reveals and has you rooting for Kippa to keep going forward. It's not an issue anyone can jump in because of how lost you'll feel, but I still feel like a new reader will find enough here to convince them to start from the beginning. Monstress is a fantastic dark fantasy with some amazing imagination put into it that I believe everyone should be reading or at the very least, give a shot.

I absolutely love this art team here. They've been doing a great job in this series to convey the tone this story needed and the splash page in this issue is probably my favorite among the series. All I can say is that if a Metal Gear comic was to ever be made now, this is the team for it. The chain reaction of events that has been building to cause an implosion or even an explosion if things go really bad have been some exciting things to read here. Kyle Higgins is a newer writer for me to read from and this series shows he certainly has some great range in his storytelling.

The art team here is doing a well-done job bringing out the gristle in this series. No one is happy here in Blackstone but continue to do what they can with some reasons simply due to greed. I do believe some of the best panels here though are any sort of close-ups on our characters. You really see how rough everyone looks and it's great when you see just how angry Piotr is, as he seems to get closer to his answers. Crude is a very vulgar series but the in-focus here has so much heart behind all the blood and violence that is spilled that you care about him finding peace in this whole situation. This continues to be a surprise find as far as any of Image's recently published series.

The art team continues to be on point in this series. This is still some of the best work I see every month in comics. Every aspect shows that a lot of hard work is being done here from the illustrations, fantastic inking, and the colors. All of this combined just makes everything eye-catching. They also make great work with panels, especially in its action panels with a fantastic splash page where the rangers use one of their big weapons. Go Go Power Rangers keeps up it's great pace of action and drama that just makes enjoy all of it's heroes and villains. Most importantly, they close another chapter in the series while leading off readers to get excited as they setup to begin their next arc.

This issue probably has some of my favorite panels of Rita in the entire run. You also really feel the impact of the fight scenes and there's one moment in particular that gives one ranger a shining shot. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers ends the event with all the layers it has been using to make the series very much talked about and it only leaves me excited for more in the future.

Crude is definitely one of the surprise books this year for me. The main drive of Piotr was his anger and even though he never really had a strong relationship with his son prior to his death, he still shows that he'll always love his son.

The art team here did such a great job creating the images that were going on inside of Marcus. It's scary, messy, depressing, and even at times, we see bits of beauty and happiness. These are all the things that go on inside of someone but for Marcus, it really is mostly filled with darkness and it's great to see him really fight through it. The way they display all the people that Marcus has become friends with is sad but done beautifully. The issue is really about self-discovery and now Marcus is more than ready to take the demons head-on.

As I read through this issue I found myself grabbing at these characters. It's obvious they have gone through quite a few things in this series but there was something genuine about them that you could see through Starkings' writing. We get a bit of a political satire about a blonde hair man that wears a red tie that wins an election to become mayor and he seems to want to take a few steps backward inhibiting society's progress.

The art from Sorrentino and Stewart here are great as it always gives us a feeling of dreadfulness and leaves you a bit uncomfortable in the situations, especially when things go a bit dark. There's a fantastic silhouette piece drawn in one of the pages and is a fantastic image of Dr. Xu and Norton with a dark omen that looms over them. I'm enjoying so much on how we're learning a bit more and more on our characters in this series and they really grow on you as you want them to find out what is really going on here and hope they come out alive from it. Gideon Falls is a thrilling story even though it still feels like it's only getting started.

Every issue delivers some fantastic art and this one is no exception. The direction and style that is used can really help carry the tone of a story and what we're given here is so perfect. The mood is always down and dark and our characters have very little sense of hope. There are those small moments with a glimpse of light and that glimpse is what's lead our characters closer to solving whatever it is that is going on with them. The paneling continues to have some real creative fun in it done, especially on its last few pages. Every issue adds questions while giving us some answers and Gideon Falls is a mystery thriller that everyone should be reading.

Go Go Power Rangers new arc is even better with this issue. It also still feels like new readers can jump in here as much of what has happened is explained well enough and hopefully will make new readers want to read previous issues. Things are also getting a bit more cosmic in the series but everything still feels very well grounded. With two heroes lost and a new villain brought in, the power rangers are about to have a big fight on their hands. Along with the character building, this series deserves to be recognized as one of the top superhero team comic books out there and at times can be better than others.

The art from Jeff Lemire continues to draw you into his characters souls. Even though his style isn't necessarily clean, it just works really well with the stories that he's telling here. I feel like it really brings out the sadness and rough edges of these characters that really can pull a reader in. You want to see things come out better for all of them, and it just hits really hard when you can relate some of the tension and inner turmoil that the characters go through. One thing you can learn from reading about this family is that you never want to leave regret with the ones you have around you.

We're at the conclusion of the Children of Gods arc in Wonder Woman and it is quite epic.

X-Men Gold continues to be the team book that every comic and mutant fan should be reading.

The art in this run has been great to compliment the dark, horror images that we see and when things are all over, we get the gorgeous ray of light that really stands out in the entire run. There are a few pages with some interesting choices of style for the panel layouts but it all still flows very nicely. From the beginning, Elena has left a very strong impression on me and I believe any reader can find enjoyment in this series. Even though this is the final issue, it is clear that Elena still has more stories to tell in the future.

The art team continues to nail the series with their style. It's never too far off of looking so serious but you can always feel the weight of the story and I can only imagine how much fun the coloring has to be for this series.

Bitter Roots starts off very strong with a great set of characters while mildly introducing a villain. It comes off as very fun, hits on how society expects you to be due to your gender well enough, and reading about a family that hunts monsters of all shapes and sizes will lead readers into a heck of a good time.

he first issue of this new arc is delivering a rush of excitement and anticipation as you turn every page, leaving you anxious to see the outcome of Marcus, Maria, and everyone else.

When the issue closes, you're left thinking back on everything that all just went through. So much fighting, killing, and losses just happened and this is what Marcus brings up early on in the issue. It's all about finding your peace and knowing when to fight. More importantly, it's about knowing why you're fighting. Not everything is closed out here but right now Marcus and Maria may be able to help these newer kids move forward with them until they inevitably run into the students of Kings Dominion again.

Death Orb is set to only be a 5-issue mini but this first issue does a great job landing in all the right places. We meet our protagonist with a clear goal, the tone is set very well, the art team nailed it, and it really ends with a bang!

His adventures are far from over and Oliver is far more than ready to face them head-on as the Green Arrow and he is not alone.

I don't think I can get over the art from this team enough. The way everyone looks and the expressions we get off these characters are some of my most favorite work in comics now.

The legacy Invincible leaves behind is something only so many books have accomplished. The final issue gives its readers everything that made the series what it is and why it will always be highly recommended to new readers. Invincible has truly earned his place among the list of greatest superhero comics of all time.

Even with a major unsolved situation at the end of the issue, which will more than likely be wrapped in the next final issue. I think the readers will enjoy how far we have come with the Pike family and just because your life isn't perfect, it doesn't mean you shouldn't try to be happy. Most of all, not be alone.

Saga hits all the notes here to make this issue one all of its fans will remember in its run. With its great writing and fantastic art, there really isn't a lot that this series doesn't offer to its fans. Not only has it offered great characters for new readers to start with, but the number of new ones that come along the way are only some of the reasons why Saga is one of the most talked about comic book series out there and why it's fans will continue to keep recommending it to new readers, especially after this issue.
