The action in this issue is often pretty graphic (the 17+ rating could tell you that though) as guns go off in the big city and molotov cocktails ignite the streets. Kidwell, along with Zornow and Fotos have created a rebellion against the mess as a group of heroes (including the sniper mentioned above) sets out to fix up the city as best they can, but it's going to be a hell of a task.

Airboy is a story about creating a story, but then along comes the character of the story into the real world you'll just have to check it out. Robinson and Hinkle have created a unique story that reads like an episode of Californication crossed with Saturday morning cartoons.It's a masterpiece!

Issue #3 of Airboy throws Robinson and Hinkle into a bigger mess than they were already in. Their lives don't seem to be going how they want, and this bender they're on doesn't seem to be losing any steambut when Airboy assigns them a new task to help out the war efforts it makes you wonderare these two ready to be heroes?

Robinson and Hinkle end their Airboy series on a high note as both humor and heart are prominent throughout. Hinkle delivers on the actions sequences as he depicts the war efforts against the Nazis. Robinson ties up his story of self-loathing and perseverance in a fitting way to the flow of the story. Now, let's get off the couch and get some writing done. Or stay on the couch. Just make sure you're writing.

This issue introduces you to concepts that were brewing in issues prior and creates a potential jumping on point for interested readers. The story is very action intent and delivers on that notion. The art is explosive and tempts you to look into every little detail.

A vacation with friends sounds like a great time! But something about that shooting star doesn't feel right…

This is a cool story to see compared to the usual Batman tales. He gives up the manor, but does he ever really leave?

Athena IX #1 shows us a glimpse into a much wider story as an all-out war is brewing in the future. Just make sure to update your iPhone next time it reminds you, it's a good habit to get into for when it's inevitably integrated into your genetic code.

Its clear Snyder is a writer capable of bringing new life to a seventy-five year old city as Batman reaches his anniversary this year. Hes successfully created a story that not only brings the mythology of Batman to the present, but also adds new energy to the city as he builds up his own version of Gotham. Hes managed to go from Secret City to Dark City to Savage City and keep it fine-tuned the whole way through. With a character full of iconic stories Snyder has successfully created a well-crafted story of his own with Zero Year.

Snyder has said before that this is his last turn on a Joker story, and with the way this ended we should all be okay with that. He pits two rivalsupon one another in a way that shows how truly dependent they are on the other's stance in Gotham, and it's also one of the craziest and most detailed fights you've ever seen.

Its nice to see Bruce keeping busy in his old age, even if Alfred doesnt seem to think it a good idea. But as hes well aware, theres no reasoning with Batman, Gotham needs him and thats that.

This issue does a great job of furthering Batmans emotions in the event of his sons death. Hes irrational and defying the League, but nobody is going to stop him from getting back his son.

This story continues to build up to the adventure Batman is about to go on, while showing the reader a glimpse of what hes leaving behind.

Whats more important than family? Nothing! As Batman is on the hunt for Damien his own family is on the hunt for him but will he accept their help? Or shun them for following him into danger?

This issue brings a lot of action into play right from the beginning. Batman is still determined to find his son Damien, but theres someone else hes been looking forward to finding tooand he just might get his wish.

Batman spent awhile on Apokolips, but did he finish the mission he set out to do? If youve been on the internet at all in the past month chances are you already know whats coming, but this issue gets you there with enough action to satisfy your longing for a Batman vs. Darkseid rematch.

The wait is finally over – and it was well worth it too! Issue #38 of Batman and Robin reminds us why Damien is one of the best Robins, if not the best Robin to ever patrol the streets of Gotham with the Dark Knight himself. But even as Robin is raring to go and drive fear into the scum of Gotham his father makes sureto remind him that he's the one “dressed to scare the bad guys”.

Issue #39 of Batman and Robinproves this new dynamic to the dynamic duo is a positive one. Batman essentially is caring for a young, much cockier, Superman, but will he be able to help him control his powers?

This creative team takes their last crack at this crime fighting team of father and son and delivers an action packed issue with a heartfelt ending.

This issue goes to show us that no matter how old Bruce gets hes never going to change. Hes determined to get the job done and keep his allies as safe as possible, even if it means risking his own well-being to do it. The new take on Robin is also a welcomed change, as he proves to be on par with Bats, and know his personality enough to know when its best to ignore him.

Batman and Robin Eternal #1 is a trip back to the character loaded with the sameendlessly suspenseful narratives that made Batman Eternal so great. Tynion and Snyder showcase their talents in the first issue to create a surprising story from Batman and Robin's past. The artwork from beginning to end is met with great detail, with each character's entrance being soaked in the colors of their costumes (Bluebird's entrance has her face to face with the big blue Robo-Bat, the building she's near is blue/grey). If this issue is any indication of what's to comethen we're in for a seriousride.

Throughout the issue Seeley continues to infuse a constant stream of humor into the story, creating an issue filled with action that keeps you laughing (something he also did well during Batman Eternal). The artwork is once again fantastic this issue, with the fear gas induced scene bringing out some groovy artwork (going to work on making that word relevant again). Loaded with action, laughs, and great artwork this is the grooviest comic outthis week. Now someone tell Grayson that if he wants to stick around Gotham he'd better put a mask on.

Worth mentioning since it wasn't included in last week's issue – The “Batman created by Bob Kane” line that accompanies every Batman comic now includes “with Bill Finger” as well. It's been long overdue! Thanks Bill for helping make Batman the man he is today.

Another great week of Batman and Robin Eternalas Orlando gives us more humor alongside another twist in the Mother story. The artwork is consistent with what we've been seeing from the issues so far as Eaton delivers his take on the Robins as well as an appearance from Batgirl. The teamwork from all the “Real” Robins has been great to see so farany chance the new Robins will be sticking around?

This issue tackled various story lines, all following some version of a Batman sidekick (even though Bluebird hasn't technically had the honor of being Batman's child soldier yet) with some things explained well and others left to the “just because” scenario (Bluebird tries to explain why she decided to follow, but it's not a realistic explanation). There's plenty of action this issue, but it falls short of the humor that was fused with issues prior.

This issue of Batman and Robin Eternal kicks off with some great action and delivers some chilling looks into the past. The artwork is impressive throughout out and Daniel gives fantastic representations of Batman along with his many allies. A scene towards the middle of this issue shows Batman in the middle of the two pages as the narration on either side breaks down what he knows about mother – it's here where we get the most hardboiled/noir type language in the issue. Daniel showcases Batman in the middle of the pages and determined, covered in the pouring rain, as lightning strikes in the background (it's going to be your new phone background pic). This issue is on fleek! (as the kids say).

This issue of Batman and Robin Eternal places some of the characters into pairs as Dick Grayson is once again the lone ranger, and the one most resembling the mannerisms of the Batman himself. Valentine pumps a few scenes of humor into the largely suspenseful issue as the mystery behind Mother gets even bigger. Martinez creates a lot of great scenes, but steals the show with his take on the ballet. This issue of Batman and Robin Eternal needs an encore! Do people say that for ballets?

Issue #8 of Batman and Robin Eternal focuses on Grayson as well as Harper and Cass for the most part, while giving us a glimpse of what Red Hood and Red Robin are up to in the end.Genevieve Valentine keeps the suspense going while offering up a lot of scenes for artistsAlvaro Martinez, Scot Eaton, Raul Fernandez, Wayne Faucher, and Sandra Molina to play around in. The fight scenes in this issue offer up plenty of action, and even some comedic scenes (Cass has a sort of Rafiki/Lion King moment involving an elbow to someone's face). Somebody put Cass in a mask already!

Issue #9 of Batman and Robin Eternal brings to attention some new players in the Mother saga, as well as gives us a bit more information regarding Grayson's past alongside Batman (who is really Bruce Wayne?!). The dynamic writing duo ofJackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly keep the story filled with light-hearted humor, while showcasing a grim storyline surrounding Batman's former sidekicks. The artwork by Roge Antonio and Allen Passalaqua delivers the punches and keeps the momentum flowing, all while reminding us that Bane can still be Bane without his Venom (seriously, this guy doesn't need that stuffif you see him just rununless he's leapingthen you may just have to laugh).

This issue of Batman and Robin Eternal hits all the right notes. Lanzing and Kelly craft a script that gives us just enough insight into the Batman/Robin story happening in the past, along with a touch of the story happening with Harper and Grayson, but they keep the bulk of the issue invested in the most interesting and action oriented story currently taking place in the seriesRed Robin and Red Hood! The artwork byRoge Antonio, Geraldo Borges, and Allen Passalaqua delivers some eye-popping visuals (especially in the Red Robin scene mentioned above). Pasalaqua uses colors well throughout the issue to createdifferent vibes depending on the characters and situations – with Batman and Grayson/Robin in the past we see Batman brooding in the dark cave, and with Red Hood and Red Robin we see a lot of bright backgrounds and colors as they traverse the island and fight off their attackers. This issue delivers the laughs, the action, and the shark spray!

Brisson does well indelivering a high impact issue with some of the series' most graphic scenes yet. We get to see another side of the Mother saga and how an innocent bystander is impacted, even inadvertently, by her persuasions. The art team of Blanco, Duce, and Rauch craft scenes befitting to the horror taking place in the past, as Bluebird learns more than she ever thought she would about her newest friend.

Issue #12 of Batman and Robin Eternal gives us Grayson's take on what Bluebird saw happened in the past last issue. Though this issue offers a lot of the drama it misses out on some of the humor we've been able to see in other issues – most of that humor comes from Tim Drake and Jason Todd, which were both absent this issue. Bluebird is mostly absent during the issue, but appears again at the end giving us a bit of a lighthearted spin on the otherwise grim tale of the past as told by Brisson. The artwork this issue delivered some great scenes as both Pina and Sudzuka worked well to create an issue with fluent work, all made the better by the colors of Rauch.

Issue #13 of Batman and Robin Eternal gives more of the drama we've been seeing in this series. Once again it's an issue absent of Red Hood and Red Robin, so there isn't much room for comic relief (ba-doom-psh) as we witness more traumatic scenes from both Cassandra's past andpresent.Tynion doesn't hold back in his depiction of Cassandra's ascent into becoming a hero as he's accompanied by the skillful artwork ofMarcio Takara and Dean White. The action scenes by Takara are as dynamic as they are heartfelt when they need to be – the scene featuring the quote above being a prime example of that.

Issue #14 of Batman and Robin Eternal brings back the humor (but not Red Hood and Red Robin!!!!!!) while delivering some great action scenes accompanied by equally great artwork by Blanco, Robinson, and Rauch. Tynion IV pulls together another action-packed script as he makes room for twists and turns in the Batman and Robin story happening in the past as well as in the present. Seriouslywhat was Scarecrow thinking? You can't mess with the Bat.

This week brought back favorites Red Hood and Red Robin while giving them scenes they can do their best work in. The writing duo ofJackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly brought the laughs along with room for artists Christian Duce and Gabe Eltaeb to depict the action. Something this issue does really well is give one of the most terrifying endings yetRed Hood is in for some series nightmares…

Issue #16 gives us another look at an iconic scene in Batman and Robin history – one that's shaped Jason Todd in the Red Hood alter-ego he is today. The storyline we've seen Red Hood and Red Robin in the past few issues gets wrapped up as we head back to Gotham for more chaos. Oh, and that last scene we get at the end featuring another look into the past and Batmandid he just pick up a gun?

Overall this issue served to give readers some information we've been craving since the beginning, but when reading it you can't help but feel it's just going through the motions. This series has been strong all the way through, but strives when humor and action can take a front seat, and even with Bat's grand fight we're still left with wanting more – as we've received in issues prior. Eaton, Faucher, and Passalaqua deliver some great artwork – even giving us a quick panel of the two redheroesGotham needs.

Issue #18 of Batman and Robin Eternaldoes well to expand on the story of Mother, both the past and present versions of it, but once again leaves the story void of the humor that's made issues before so much more enjoyable. Each character is handling the events in their own way, some of them cracking under the pressure, some staying quiet (Red Hood!). The artwork delivers the punches, but falls short when it comes to some of the facial expressions and appearances of the characters.

Humor makes its way back into the series as Tim Seeley takes over on scripting. Humor isn't the only thing this issue is about, however, as we also get to see plenty of action from the former Bat-sidekicks. A great line from Grayson also reminds us who one of the most badass characters in this series is, “Cass. You're with me. Even off your rocker, you're one of the best fighters on the damn planet.” He says this in regards to Cass who is also being affected by Mother's mind-control and in need of the fear toxin. Even while facing her greatest fears right in front of her Grayson still knows she's capable of great things, that's pretty awesome. The artwork on this issue also hit a lot of high notes as we experience some brutal fight scenes and some psychedelic panels. Soooo many punches being thrownthis issue, and a pretty epic head-butt via Cass don't pick a fight with her.

This issue raises the bar from issues prior. Seeley does a great job at pushing the story forward and pushing down our heroes into more chaos. ArtistsRoge Antonio and Geraldo Borges do a great job bringing the script to life and creating some hard-hitting scenes – both figuratively and quite literally (that incoming kick from Orphan looks like it's going to hurt!).The character reveal at the end is also a nice surprise and should prove to shake up the story even more! (We've been missing a level of smartass remarks that Red Hood just can't deliver quite as well as this newest addition to the series). Looking forward to the next issue of Batman and Robin Eternal!

All around this issue successfully serves to push this series in the right direction. Another great look into Batman's gallery of villains and allies as well as reminders to key plot points made in earlier issues.

Batman Eternal utilizes different writers and artists each week and this issue continues the great story being told about the dismal city known as Gotham, so if youre not reading this seriesSTART NOW!

This week keeps up with a great story as Batman takes a trip around the world, makes some cool friends, and serves up what Jiros been dreaming of (google Jiro).

Then Batman came and saved the day EE-EYE-EE-EYE-OH!

Seeley scripts a great issue from the story by Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV and is only pushed to greater heights by the artwork of Ian Bertram and Dave Stewart. The beginning scene tying up with the ending is a proper call back to the events in earlier issues, but does well to not disrupt Batgirl's story taking place. This time around Batman Eternal hits a high note, it rips doorsfrom their hinges, and throws scorpions (really…scorpions!) with a story that brings the funny and action all wrapped into a wonderfully drawn comic.

This is another great issue in a series that refuses to disappoint. The overall story just keeps getting bigger as more unfolds and more rogues from Batman's (and Jim Gordon's') past resurface.

This issue is another great installment in a series that's been promising all the way through so far. The tensions are building on the force, and Gordon is left with a decision to make. This time around we're given a lot to think about.

The events of this issue are big, the events of next issue . . . sound even bigger. Batman Eternal #14 does not disappoint as it keeps the momentum rushing forwardin this strong weekly series.

Week after week this series is doing a great job of juggling its different storylines. Were given closure to certain points as others are brought up and everything moves at a solid pace. Issue #15 brings a lot of characters into play and depicts them in ways youve been dying to see whether you knew it or not.

With the crime in Gotham being swapped for spirits this issue presents to us a big player within the Batman Eternal story-line, as Harpers involvement grows even deeper, and Bard continues on his mission for justice.

This series has gone through many different takes on the types of horror Gotham has to face on a daily basis. The crime bosses, the corrupt cops, the freakishly corrupt deaconsSuperman has it soooo easy in Metropolis. Issue #17 brings new story threads and motives into the mix as well as containing a scene showcasing the Batman in all of his Dark Knight glory (see the top quote for one of the best lines hes ever muttered).

This series successfully brings new elements to the forefront each week as some threads are left behind to explore new ones. It doesnt have an overwhelming amount of sub-plots going on, and is able to reintroduce you to character personalities and motives with each issue. This week were given a strong story coming from Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV that Tim Seeley is able to script out in a manner befitting to his artists talents. Scenes shoot back and forth from one another with fitting visuals as this story continues strong on its journey to one of Batmans biggest clashes yet.

This week is another successful installment to this growing story. Some closure hits in this issue, as well as some new points for future issues (the last page!). Batman is going to need all the help he can get!

This week were given more reveals and learn the true nature of some of the characters weve come to trust throughout this series. Whos really been pulling the strings? Is this just the beginning? How can someone break a flash drive in their hand using their thumb? Seriously, should I be doing thumb workouts?

This weeks issue focused mainly on Batman and how much he really depends on Alfred (Penny-one) during combat and stressed situations, creating a fun dynamic and great story.

This issue brings humor, action, as well as pushes the story into yet another big event this time involving Selina Kyle, or should I say SelinaCalabrese(Seriously, should I?).

This week brings us some much anticipated action, as well as free up Batman to jump in his next mission Wheres Batwing? Why isnt he answering?

This week Tynion gave us some humor along with some big moments (drama!) to the ongoing story. He touched base mostly on the affairs regarding Batman and his allies, showing us that coming together and trusting one another is going to be an important piece of the story. A brief recap on the state of Harpers training also serves as a quick reminder to readers that shell be joining the bat-family soon enough.

This week were reminded of Alfreds importance to the team and how much Hush really knows about Batman. Bruce isnt alone in his mission to save Gotham, but the odds are still very much stacked against him.

This week were brought back to Batgirls mission, and reminded on what The Spoiler has been up to. Batman isnt giving up on his mission either (as if he ever would) and Catwoman faces problems of her own – All of this and funny side remarks by Penny-Two. Its a winning combination!

This week brought a few scenes to a close weve seen in recent issues. Batgirl has been having the most trouble and deals with things her own way, and showing a similar desire to save the one you love Killer Croc takes things to the extreme perhaps something Batgirl might have done if not for the appearance of a friend.

This week Ray Fawkes takes over scripting duty for the story by both Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV. A lot of this issue has Batman talking with Penny-Two as he traverses the destruction happening around Gotham. Keeping up with all the chaos isn't something one man can do however, and some of the destruction is on such a grand scale I don't think anyone could have prevented it. Fawkes keeps a serious tone throughout the issue, and even gives some dark elements to sections of the text " the part with Batwing during the devastation, won't give away anything, but wow!

You know, where I come from, we introduce ourselves to traveling companions. My name is Alfred.

Another great issue comes out of Batman Eternal #32 as Kyle Higgins keeps the story pushing forward with great momentum. Hush has been an opposing threat for a while now, but the magnitude of his agenda in Gotham has just been raised.

On the artwork side of this issue is Jason Fabok as the artist and Brad Anderson on colors. Fabok's portrayal of Batman is classic, he's big, he's bruising, he has some stubble and could possibly use a shower. Anderson comes in and compliments Fabok's artwork in a great way (both are quite detailed).

This week we continue to see the fall of Gotham. Bards smirk needs to be wiped off once more as he finds humor in the plan coming together.

Batman Eternal #35 keeps Batman on the edge of his seat just as much as the readers!

This week were given a bit more of Bards background and whats been truly driving him to make war upon Batman. Were also shown how much Batman hasnt figured out yet youre not even close! But whos this at the issues end? Perhaps someone else will figure it all out first

This week showed some of Batmans progression, but was more suited to seeing what his enemies are up to. Oh, and Batwing is in trouble. Who you gonna call?

This week gave us insight as to how Batman continues to clean up Gotham, and how many ties Catwoman now has to the city as well as its villains. Also Batman makes a bad joke (according to Penny-Two).

This week Fawkes broughtus a dark and gritty story featuring the worn down Batman of recent weeks. Wayne has lost everything, but still he pushes on in order to save Gotham. This week makes it clear however that things are going to get far worse for Batman before they get any better (much worse!).

This week shows us once again how much turmoil is brewing in Gotham, but with the bat-family running around out there is there still hope for Batman? And which side is Catwoman on?

This week featured another great story alongside fantastic artwork. This series has gone through so many shifts in the artwork style and it's been great to see each style take on a life of its own. This issue doesn't disappoint!

This issue for the most part stuck to Harper and her first real mission out alone to save the day. Did she make the big Bat in the sky proud? Well…apparently he has a lot to talk about with Red Robin (I think he's in troooouble).

This week brought the scene we've all been waiting for (trust me, you've been waiting for this scene) with a few laughs along the way.

This week took us down a dark path, but it's Gotham so that's expected – is it ever daytime in Gotham? Wonder what happens during the day…

This issue is equivalent to the feeling you get when you slice a ghost in half. You know the one I'm talking about? Batwing knows…oh, he knows.

This week brings Batman to his knees! He also breaks a knee! But while Batman was out looking for clues…what was happening in Gotham? Christmas time is coming!

Something else this week did was showcase each and every one of the Bat-family and show them in some sort of action, this along with the fantastic artwork by Ferrerya makes this issue one of the best so far in the series – and one you certainly don't want to miss!

This week leaves a lot of the Bat-family in tight spots, including Jim Gordon. But has someone finally realized his mistakes and willing to help him?

This week Hush has some fun with Batman's toys, but too bad for him his good time can't last forever.

Things aren't looking good for the Dark Knight or Gothamdid he take too long solving the puzzle? Is it too late to save the city?

Batman has had everything takenfrom him, but when has that ever stopped him before?

This series put Batman through the ringer, but he came out on the other side stronger than ever. And with Snyder's current run on Batman that takes place after these events it's clear Gotham never catches a break. Luckily Batman doesn't require any sleepor foodwateroxygenso he'll always be there to protect it!

Writer Chris Kipiniak delivers a story revolving around teen drama as well as government secrets. Theresa isn't quite feeling herself lately as her hands and feet have turned into claws and the fact she's acquired a thirst for blood, but unlucky for her someone has taken interest in these new changes and thinks she'll be a perfect fit for somewhere far away from home.

For those who always craved a sequel to the 1986 film this is what you've been waiting for! Those who are newcomers to the story might find themselves a bit lost as first, but are given enough clues to piece together what happened all those years ago (or a few minutes ago according to where the comic starts off). Overall this story hits all the points of nostalgia you were hoping for, it brings the funny banter as well as great visuals, and even makes sure youll want to tune into the next issue to hear what the Ol Pork-Chop Express has to say.

Issue #1 of Bigfoot: Sword of the Earthman gives a lot of story in a little bit of time. Heneman shows us how Bigfoot was being used as a captive in order to help construct giant structures for a corrupt ruler, and then shows us his way out"and into another problem (big guy can't catch a break no matter what planet he's on). Taylor gets wildly creative in depicting the various different types of species that inhabit the red planet, while Bonvillain keeps the story grounded in the unforgiving dust of the desert.

Bloodthirsty quickly becomes a tale of high stakes and bloodlust. Virgil is trying to leave his past behind him and move on with his life, find peace, but there are those that aren't done with him just yet.

The story of Bullet Gal busts wide open in issue #7 as were shown just how much time has gone into crafting the world of Heropa and what its true intent really is.

Bergen continues to push creative boundaries with each issue of this series – and goes even further with issue #9. Even without words the story bleeds its noir roots, keeping you engrossed in the story and craving more.

This issue brings another hero's story into the fold as the noir world of Bullet Gal reaches ever closer to the end.

Bullet Gal has been a great story, but it's not over yet! So check out this issue and prepare yourself for #12!

Writer/artist Andrez Bergen returns to Heropa for one last Bullet Gal story, and this time he pulls out some of his best work on the series yet!

Dark Knight III: The Master Race #1 gives the same type of gritty story you've seen previously in DKR and Strikes Again. This is a Gotham in total despair, a Gotham where the cops and villains are hard to tell apart. This is the type of Gotham that truly needs a Batman. Miller and Azzarello are able to once again create a world in despair for the Dark Knight to conquer, all while adding a modern spin on the tale. The artwork by Kubert, Janson, and Anderson is reminiscent of what we've seen before in the series, but definitely splashes in the colors when needed (a chase scene involving cops from the beginning of the issue shows the panels soaked in bright read and blue). Overall, you're going to want to get yourself a copy of this story. Looks like it's going to be a fun ride (in the Batmobile?!)

Do you think Batman would ever shake hands with Superman or would he be more of the hugging type? I mean, they're practically brothers at this point…

Issue #1 of Dead Vengeance sets up a great story, one filled with a lot of mystery and tension. Will Dover end up returning to the mission he started all those years ago? Exactly how far did he get before becoming a “Preserved Human Corpse”?

The merc with a mouth is back! Have you missed him as much as he missed missing you missing him? This issue serves to bring a layer of mystery to the return of Deadpool, as well as a sweet new gang to raise awareness of the world's greatest mercenary. The artwork is still just as fantastic as it was in previous issues, before you know, the world blew up.Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to watch that Halloween video again.

Issue #2 of Deadpool gives us a “reveal” to some of the speculation brought up last issue in the identity of the “real” Deadpool. Duggan is doing a great job so far in creating a story filled with mystery, humor, and action, as Hawthorne is creating solid artwork to accompany it. Now will the real Deadpool please stand up?

Peter David along with artists Scott Koblish and Val Staples kick off this Deadpool story with laughs and plenty of action. Deadpool needs to cause some serious trouble to make sure he gets his story right but will he go too far? ehhwe hope so!

Deadpool swears he was a part of the Secret Wars too, and so far it seems he had a pretty important role and a glorious mustache?

Death Head #1 is a great homage to classic horror movies while creatinga new and frightening entity torule your nightmares!

Lemire and Nguyen once again put their protagonist in peril (because showing himeating breakfast wouldn't be any fun… downloading breakfast?) as Descender #4 keeps the momentum rolling… in space!

With both Manapul and Buccellato on storytelling were given a story with a lot of different pieces fitting together. The storyline of Icarus has, thus far, been compelling and leaves Gotham open for even more trouble. If youre looking to jump in, this is only part three so grab onto issues #30 and #31 along with this next time youre in your local comic shop (and bask in all its glory).

In an issue packed with dialogue there isn't any segment that seems unnecessary. The story is constantly moving at a great pace and delivering big scenes. Batman looks angry, punches everything, but makes sure to find important clues along the way.

Everything gets tied up rather quickly in this last issue to the ICARUS story, but were still met with a Batman willing to push himself for the sake of justice while trying to save everyone at the same time. This issue doesnt pull any punches as it delivers action and bookends it with the emotional buildup.

Batman cant catch a break; he didnt even finish half of his coffee! Out of one mystery and right into another, but this time hes racing against the clock!

Diesel #1 introduces a comedic character with Dee and a great ensemble of other character's for her to play around with. Hesse does well in creating an action packed opening to his story as well as giving an ending that peaks your curiosity – Next issue please!

Freddy Lombard and his companions take on many different roles throughout this collection of stories as we're also given a trip through history. The artwork is consistent throughout as we see these stories flow from one to the next in familiar fashion. Freddy and his companions go on a wide array of adventures and with each turn of the page you're never really sure where you're going to end up next.

Lemire is crafting a story that is both compelling and filled with action as this issue begins to lead into something even bigger. Hes accompanied by talented artists and together they're creating a great story. If youre looking for a jumping on point, this issue isn't a bad place to start.

The Misadventures of Grumpy Cat and Pokey #1 is a fun take on a character that helped the world express how much they despise everything through the use of memes (Ohh, the internetmagical place). Issue #1 sets up the "friendship" of Grumpy and her "pal" Pokey through the gazes of a handful of writers and a couple of artists. The humor falls closely to that of your favorite cartoon memories, or perhaps Scooby-Doo is just on the brain from the haunted house storybut seriously thoughGrumpy Cat wanted treats before she would go in the househmmmm? Thought so.

Issue #2 of Howard The Duck offers the same fun banter as the first, as Howard's newest job as a private investigator gets the Marvel treatment. He just wants to live a normal life! But is that even possible?

This issue gives the reader a big reveal and opens up the story to a whole other level. Howard's got his work cut out for him if he plans on staying in the Private Eye business

If you're looking for a new read somewhere between Justice League and General Hospital then Jupiter's Circle is just what you need! The action these heroes face doesn't match up with the drama they're facing in their own lives, which is a fresh take on the classic superhero formula.

A sensational story chock full of old-timey goodness issue #1 of Justice Inc. : The Avenger introduces a group of heroes reminiscent of the Golden Age of comics, setting included. Waid presents a confident character in Benson, but is this confidence going to be his downfall?

This issue is loaded with great artwork and an imaginative story and is sure to be one you'll want to pick up. So go do it!

Something Stradley does well throughout the issue is drive in the point that “hope is humanity's great weakness” – essentially giving you a reason to turn off Netflix for a bit and get some work done. This is a series that lives in fantasy, but brings forth realistic life lessons.

Remender and Tocchini do a great job of creating this world and emerging you into this fantasy right from the start. Their take on the end of the world is one of optimism and hope as they've created a strong female lead to take us on a great adventure.

Some of the things expressed in this issue are dark, but thats what this series is about overcoming the darkness. Stel is on a journey to save everyone as well as rekindle her relationship with her son Malik. Shes optimistic in a very dreary time for humanity and is the perfect candidate to get the job done.

Each issue in this series brings a big story and outlandish characters (is that shark standing up?!). Hope is always on the horizon, but something always seems to get in the way. What happens when Stel cant keep her cool? And since when is Marik the calm one?

Stel and Marik have found themselves in a grave situation, but hope is something that is now driving them both. And what of Stels daughters? Will she be able to reconnect with her daughter Tajo? One can onlyhope.

Low #6brings some of the biggest action of the series and also gives you plenty of those feels (get some tissues ready…it's okay…it'll be okay). Remender and Tocchini finish stage one of Stel's journey with a grand finish – but now what will happen next?!

Remender and Tocchini return and bring back the great writing and artwork that made the first arc so memorable. Della's time away has changed her, but is there any hope for Stel to bring her back? What about Della's sister Tajo? This is going to be one hell of a ride.

Remender and Tocchini, along with McCaig, deliver another great issue of Low as Stel finds herself in what some would call a “pickle” towards the issues end. Will her new friends be enough to save her?

Issue #9 of Low reaches a new level as Remender, along with Tocchini and McCaig, raises the stakes even higher. This issue makes it clear that hope is out there for everyone"you just have to fight for it (metaphorically fight for it"unless you're actually trapped underwater).

Low #10 offers some of Stel's strongest words yet. The art continues to be a high point in the series (making this series a very well-rounded one). Remender does a great job of giving Stel's new friends their time to shine, and Tocchini and McCaigtake the opportunity to place them in some great scenes. Stel is still as hopeful as ever and now realizes she must focus on her own happiness first and foremost. Luckily she has some great comrades to watch her back and keep her company as she continues upwards towards hope.

Bunn writes some horrific scenes in this issuewhile Fernandez does well to deliver the Magneto youve come to enjoy astogether they giveyou more reason to look forward to the next issue (as if you needed it). Well played, guys well played

Bunn continues writing the story of Magneto weve always wanted to see and the artwork by Fernandez cant disappoint. This issue brings a lot of fight to the story and opens up for big possibilities come next issue. This series grows with each issue, giving you more and more reasons to keep reading and not miss a single one!

Material #1 isn't your average story, and it doesn't seem to want to be either. Kot and Tempest have set out to give you something that will leave you wondering how others face their fears and overcome their hardships, and it does so in a manner that reflects on the times using recent events and possible futures.

Ward and Parker take on history in their interpretation of the story of Joseph Merrick, a man whose story has been told in many forms and portrayed by various actors over the years in both plays and film.

This issue brings forth more of the history of the sensational life of Joseph Merrick. This time around we see some of his upbringing and the event that for years people thought had led to his appearance.

This issue does of great job of showing how Merrick acts as a vigilante. He's out to prove he has what it takes to get what he feels he deserves and deliver justice.

Issue #1 of Mirror creates a world of fantasy loaded with tragedy. Rios and Lim give enough backstory to give this issue a lot of heart and drive right from the beginning as we see the struggles these characters have been facing. This issue points towards hope, and as the quote from Zun says above “if I don't even try, I've already failed” – so might as well go out there and fix all the bad things in life! Especially if you're a talking rat! (Or a TALKING DOG!)

Nameless #4 takes you into the void once again, then spits you out, puts you back in, turns you upside down, and then asks how you've been.

Duvall presents a solid start to what looks like will be a suspenseful story. Singh and Chapuis work well together in their interpretation of the future as they help to craft a character that is stuck in the past.

Issue #1 of Oxymoron serves to gives us a lot of the background needed to progress " this being the first of a four part story line. After a slow introduction, where we learn Clark isn't taking her demotion that well but still can't leave the city, we're given some pretty crazy images, but by the end we're left with a lot of questions; Who is this guy in the mask? What's really keeping Clark in Swantown? Who says no to a coffee refill?

A cross between the mannerisms and actions of the Joker and Red Hood (Jason Todd version), Oxymoron is a “very bad man” as he continues to terrorizethe citizens of Swanstown. The lead officer on the case is given a way out, a chance to leave it all behind, but she has something to prove, and a past that needs rectifying. James and Lees deliver a cold-blooded tale with issue #2, and push the doors wide open for more mayhem. Cormack delivers another issue filled to the brim with the gritty details of Oxymoron's plans as he lights the panels to accentuate the villain's destruction. All this chaos has to make you wonder thoughwhat's keeping people in this city? Free Wifi?

James and Lees dive into Mary Clark's past in this issue as they reveal to us what caused the SPD to frown upon her in the first place. She's made mistakes in her past, ones the Oxymoron has been using to his advantage, but it's made clear this issue that she has no intentions of giving up. When it comes to the art this issue there's no holding back from artist Alex Cormack either. The interview scene described above is detailed and gruesome. This issue gets your heart pounding!

This is the kind of story that sends chills down your spine. Tyler James and John Lees, along with Alex Cormack and Jules Rivera, have created a story filled with tension and manipulation. Oxymoron is an insane villain, and one willing to do whatever it takes to get the results he desires. If you're a Joker fan, or have ever wondered what it'd be like if the bad guy had total control over the hero then check this story out, leave the lights on, hide under your covers, and keep a flashlight close in case the lights go outmysteriously.

This story is filled with plenty of action and suspense as well as layers of mysteries. What's with Helena? How can she? And what's the story with Gills? Alsohow are they going to get out of the mess they find themselves in at this issues end?!

Issue #2 of Packs of the Lowcountryserves to raise more questions as well as introduce new charactersand the ending changes Bastion forever!

This issue of Packs of the Lowcountry showcases the same action and suspense of the previous two issues, but this time it amplifies the action aspect quite a bit. Right from the get-go this issue puts the world in chaos, and come the issue's end we learn we're not any closer to being free of the chaos anytime soon. Good thing Bastion has a few new tricks to help out…

Issue #4 shows us how Bass is using his newfound abilities to fight back against the threats of the low country. John Dudley crafts a story that draws a bigger focus on the approaching threat while uniting our hero with people who can help him become even stronger.Don Cardenas and Mark Dale deliver more detailed work as they put focus on Bass and his abilities – along with a cool new outfit (complete with pouches!).

Miller has created a story that tackles dark themes with an ironic twist if the smile is painted on, does it really exist? Pirouette is living a life she feels trapped in, but hope could be at the next stop. Also, DONT DRINK THE TEA!

Propeller is a series that brings up the idea of masks and what were all trying to hide. Each person walks around with a mask, from one facet of life to the next, we might even change our masks throughout the day. This series adds another level to that notion, and explores what would happen if someone was given powers, and how it would make them react on a personal and realistic level.

What would you do if you had powers? I'd probably use them to watch more NetflixI mean save puppies from burning buildings. Rex Baldwin however, is still trying to figure this part out; is he a good guyor a bad guy?

This issue brings more tension to the table as Baldwin and Hudson are forced to scramble, but will they be able to finish the job in time? Also be sure to check out the Afterword in this issue as Ricardo Mo does a great piece about writing and what it takes to go from writer to Writer.

Propeller #4 tidies up all the loose ends and gives Morgan a means to rectify some of his past mistakes. Was the money ever really that important to him? Also anytime there is a fight scene involving teleportation… you're going to want to check it out.

This issue kicks off the story ofReynto a great start. We're given insight into a big world as we're introduced to some major characters and even given some laughs. Oh, and that guy is totally going to regret messing with Reyn'sale.

This issue of REYNpushes the story along, gives us a bit more background, but misses some of the magic. It'll be up to Seph to cast some spells come next issue.

Robin War #1 brings gritty action and dark consequences tothe Robins of Gotham. With a group on the outside pulling the strings it seems like Gotham may be in real trouble (seriously, why does anyone live in this city?!). Tom King writes a dark storyline infused with witty humor and great one-liners (there's plenty of great lines when all the “real” Robins are together). The artwork this issue keeps a steady flow of talent despite the difference in styles from one artist to the next, none of which seem stifling as you turn the page (which can sometimes be the case when issues jump around so often with the artwork). Can Robin control his temper long enough to help the former Robins help the Robins? The suspense!

This is a series that doesnt seem to take itself too seriously. Were given a character that is strange and fowl, and loves to shoot guns off whenever possible. Young brings the humor and, together with Beaulieu, has created something exploding with great art and colors.

Young is creating a story with a mysterious background while also bring the %$@#! whenever Rocket is around. This series brings the humor youre looking for, the visuals youll get lost in, and the story you want to read!

This series is fun, funny, energetic, and $#%^@# Awesome! If you havent picked it up yet you should consider grabbing it next time you visit the shop. Tell the cashier you heard it was an awesome story on All-Comic.com.

This has been a fun read each issue, and with the end of the first storyline itll be exciting to see what Young and Beaulieu come up with next. Who is she?!

Serving Supes has a fresh concept with plenty of laughs, a great cast of characters that work well together from beginning to end, and a guy that can shoot slime out of his armpits. Could see this as something they'd show on Adult Swim (Get working on that pitch!).

Issue #2 of Serving Supes delivers the same style of laughs seen in the first. The concept leaves room to explore the effects of various super powers from one issue to the next, leaving the door wide open forSteve Stern, Matt Yuan and John Yuan to explore.

There is no doubt that somehow Dan Slott has imbued himself with the power cosmic to create this tale. Hes accompanied by the perfect art/colors pair to demonstrate his humor in fitting visuals. Silver Surfer along with Dawn Greenwood (and Toomie) are off on a grand adventure filled with humor and action, and with this only being the 3rd issue its a great time to jump on and go along for the ride.

This issue of Silver Surfer places Dawn back at her inn, but something is different. Youd think people would have a bigger reaction to her being in SPACE, right?! One panel however shows a quick glimpse, notifying the reader that something is going onand the Surfer is going to have to stick around until its been figured out.

Reading this series its easy to see the creators are having a lot of fun with the story. Were given a take on the Silver Surfer that is fresh and welcoming, and Dawn is a great companion to both Silver Surfer and Toomie!

This series has been excellent from the get-go, but this issue soars above what weve already seen (which is pretty high). If you havent started reading this seriesWHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

This issue brought us another fun addition to the Silver Surfer story and also gives a bit of a surprise at the ending. O0o0o0o0o0o!

Spend enough time with someone and your past is bound to resurface. This issue takes this idea and flies away with it. Will Dawn Greenwood ever forgive him? Is Toomie mad at the Surfer too? How will the Surfer fix all this? And who is closing in on his trail?

This issue marks another great installment to Silver Surferand leaves the hero at impossible odds come the issues end – what will happen next?!

This issue is all about overcoming one of the biggest villains in the Marvel Universe, Galactus! But Silver Surfer can't possibly do it alonecan he? And is his time serving as a herald truly over? Or just beginning?

The storytellerson this comic are having a great time creating a comic you can't find anywhere else. Silver Surfer is completely out there where anything is possible — perhaps even more mazes?

This issue of Silver Surfer lays low on the action for the majority, instead delivering a tale of mystery and romance! But in the end Norrin just ain't the same man unless he's got his board and the cosmic waves.

Ever wondered what we'd do if the universe were to fall apart? Well don't worry about it, because Dan Slott and Michael Allred have it all figured out for you. Silver Surfer #13 creates a big lead-in to the next big adventure for the Silver Surfer and Dawn Greenwood. But will Dawn ever find her way back home again?

Silver Surfer #14plays into the aftermath of Marvel's Secret Wars and tasks Dawn and Surfer with huge responsibilities. Sure, they can recreate the universe however they wantbut how creative should they really be with their own ideas? Letting their emotions get in the way can't cause anything to go wrongright?

Dan Slott and Michael Allred make a strong return to the pages of Silver Surfer. This issue #1 shows they've spent their time away from the character coming up with even more creative stories to showcase the power cosmic. The artwork by Michael and colors by Laura are spot on just as they were before. The story by Slott sets us up for another wild ride through space. And we get introduced to a brand new holiday – Happy New-Hallow-Givings-Birth-Mas!

Spawn gets a revamp as a familiar face comes back into the fold, with a new toy in hand. Also there's a talking dog. A talking dog!

Issue #3 of That BulletProof Kid dives a bit more into the history surrounding TBPK's powers, but makes sure to also give some lighthearted fun along the way.

An ample supply of characters and story make for a loaded first issue forRob Liefeld's The Covenant #1. Preparations are being made for an all out war to erupt, one that will surely help with your Spartacus void (you ever thought of trying Hulu?)

Futures End does a lot to service different characters each issue. Being a weekly series it has room to explore many sub-plots to keep building the world Terry was sent back to save in issue #0. With the arrival of Frankenstein and other confrontations boiling, this issue gives enough to make you wonder whats to come (as well as deliver your recommended dose of Grifter).

Each week this series strives to bring new characters from the DC universe into the fold. This issue keeps up with that notion and serves to raise even more questions. The casualty of this issue is its necessity to cater to the many side stories brewing that it doesnt seem to find its spark until a zippo does so at the end.

Worth a mention is the cover art to this issue, done by Ryan Sook. He sets the reader up for Drake/Red Robins scene playing off the news story that followed his death. In blue an image of the reporter out to uncover the story looks back to a dark image following her. Below we see fingers typing up the story and the words appearing over the images spliced together perfectly.

Catering to the many subplots its good to see more of Batmans adventures showing up in this issue (and to be delivered with a WHAM!). Its great to see so many characters getting pulled into the plot, making each week full of snippets as to what each of them is up to.

Once again featuring a moment where someone's arm is getting SCHLUNKED off we're given another taste of the world leading up to total chaos. Azzarello and the other writers plot a story featuring strong characters as well as a lot of side stories brewing. Each issue you don't really know who you can expect to see, but you can be sure something entertaining will come about.

This issue tries to mention as many of the ongoing stories as possible and even delivers some big events. Grifters role has been enticing since his first appearance in the series and it continues to grow with much promise.

A series thats been juggling many subplots since the very beginning Futures End #10 does a good job to recap some previous events while reminding us why we've been hooked since FREE COMIC BOOK DAY.

Each week, this series gives us mini-stories for all its different storylines. A method such as this isn't s fast paced-approach to the story, so details on certain scenarios might not be brought up as soon as youd hope. However, this issue does give some much needed attention to Firestorm and the struggles Raymond and Jason have to deal with because of their alter ego.

With a final scene opening up a big moment in the history of two great rivals issue #12 of Futures End doesnt disappoint.

This week brings Terry McGinnis back into focus and puts his path towards fixing the future into even more turmoil. Were also given another glimpse into Mister Terrifics growing concern with what McGinnis brought with him as his moral judgment is slowly fading away. The future draws near

This week brings some subtle conclusions to last weeks issue, but other than Lois Lanes scene doesnt add any new elements to the story. Regardless were still met with the setup of a few of the main characters getting their mini-scenes and pushing the story along just enough to warrant seeing where the story leads in issues to come.

Big reveals this issue push the story along in the right direction, as well as Azzarellos teases for issues to come (more reveals weve been waiting for!!).

This week we once again leap from story to story, leaving out a few to look at a few more. The inclusion of McGinnis/Batman again was a welcome one, though brief, but shows us hes still pushing along on his mission.

This week brought us some anticipated scenes as well as made fresh some older narratives. Deathstroke getting some answers of his own, and the reminder of what Superman means to everyone creates a strong read this week.

This week some more questions were answered and some surprising scenes shown (especially in the futures future the futures end futureof the future the older Mr. Terrific part). The family quality of the Cadmus Crew (is that a cool name for them? Can this be a thing now?) makes for some funny scenes and great banter between the characters. Were definitely given enough this week to look forward to the next issue!

This week served to give us more insight into how the Earth 2 heroes came to be here as well as remind us how angry Barda gets when she has to be patient.

This week gave us a big reveal and also reminded us of a few of the other lingering storylines. Anytime Frankenstein shows up has proven to be a good time, so heres to hoping we see some more of him soon!

This week were given a great opening followed by a few slower scenes. Sub stories big and the small were addressed, but its the teasers at the end that really shined. Even more awesome is on the way!

The events on Cadmus island are shown another perspective this week, and yay teleportation! But the real action happened at the beginning, and a great scene at the end is more than enough to be excited about next weeks issue!

This week some big scenes were shown and the ball got rolling a little bit faster. It's always nice to see what Terry is up to, since he's the one who started this shindig, but now to have the actual Batman in the forefront? Well, this just got a whole lot more interesting.

This week brought up a couple of cool scenes that would be nice to see continue next week. Its also nice to see Lois taking her job so seriously, maybe someday we can all strive to be more like Lois or at least strive to have a well-paying job at a newspaper. Lois should really be a superhero

This week gave us some more surprises and set us up for some more confrontations to follow-up in later issues. And if you take a look at the preview page of issues to comethings are looking promising.

This week deals with some really dramatic/heartfelt scenes, but dont worry, youll still get your action fix. Just bring a box of tissues in case though.

This week were given another solid storyline as opposed to the jumping from one story to the next approach weve been getting in the past. Brother Eye doesnt like to be bothered, but Green Arrow doesnt really seem to care.

This week returns to the mini-story style that has become the norm for these stories. Some of the stories are a bit stronger than others, but all together nice to see some characters we havent seen in a while make a return.

This issue gives us a lot more to think about as it introduces bigger villains and the closing-in on the release of the Usphere (Im in line too!).

This issue shows us a deeper look into Father Time (haha, youll get this when you read itIm funny), as well as shows us the trouble the new Firestorm has gotten herself into, all while reminding us that Fifty-Sue is certifiablyinsane.

This week brought us back up to speed on where Terry is with his case who has been listening in on his talks with the A.I Alfred? Also, whats wrong with Frankenstein?! An image we saw weeks ago in the Into the future section finally arrives in this weeks issue concerning our favorite green giant (not that one, the other one).

This week is full of plenty of action and, thanks to Fifty-Sue, some good laughs as well. The ending though…that's where the scene you've been waiting for arrives (the scene featuring the above quote). So go grab this issue!

“Uh, because flying is way more fun?” – Shazam

This week brought us around from story to story again and offered enough glimpses to keep us up to date on the latest happenings. Is anyone else worried about Frankenstein?

This was an issue full of first encounters (Batman meet Batman, Batman meet Bat..uhh…Joker?) while also wrapping up a few ongoing threats (just let him use the transporters!).

This week brings some funny moments as well as some sad ones. Are we saying goodbye to some old friends? Or is hope still out there?

This week inched the story along just enough to get some big players back in the game, but once again we're left to wonder how much longer until we get to see the big man really make his comeback.

This week has some big character returns alongside some great artwork – and who's that sliding down the elevator cables? Looks awfully familiar.

Brainiac, Brother Eye, Three blade razors! So many things threatening the world! The future is ending! Or something…

There's just something about seeing Superman in a t-shirt and jeans that makes him appear even more of a heroic icon, I mean, he's wearing the same shirt I wore when I was ten for three days straight during a vacation at Myrtle Beach – it made me feel cool. I may not have had the beard back then, but I do now…and it's time to put that shirt back on…just…maybe a larger size now.

This week brought some closure and some great action. Superman came back to save everyonebut was he successful?

This issue hits a high note right from the get go with the final look into the relationship of Amethyst and Frankenstein. Back in New York, Brainiac's presence is being cleaned upbut did getting rid of one enemy just make room for another?

This issue of Futures Endpulls us ever closer to the story's end — but is there hope for it to be a happy one? If only there was another Bat around…

The end is near, it's been a crazy ride, but come this issue's end..what is next?!

The future has ended! Oh the inhumanity! Cats and dogs living together! Or, or not. With an ending that's something we might see serve as a lead in to Convergence it misses its mark atbeing a satisfying stopping point for Futures End,but does serve to teach a valuable lesson about time travel (Don't time travel).Third pocket, Tim third pocket.

From the very beginning Snyder introduced a world where curiosity and bravery were the means to new worlds, and new experiences. In this final issue he brings that ideal back around full force and were left with a story that pushes the reader to look forward and chase after their own adventure.

Issue #4 of Tokyo Ghost rests some of the previous commentary that was dominant in issues prior, instead going for the full-on action packed approachwhich certainly works out well. Dent's struggles with addiction were one thing, but what lead him down that road in the first place might just be what brings him back. Remender ties issue #4 back into the first as we see returning faces in the midst of the carnage. Murphy and Hollingsworth create beautiful music together, as well as artwork, with their highly detailed action sequences and full-page landscapes.

An author admittingly experiencing the story just as we are, one issue at a time, Bergen shows once again he has a firm grasp on the concepts of noir literature – perhaps due in part to his readings of Chandlerand Hammett (two of the genre's best), and his consistent great work on Bullet Gal.

Bergen outdoes himself with the second issue of Trista and Holt as his page layouts become more and more playful and are jam-packed with his creative narrative and images. This comic offers something new, something fresh, something suspenseful.

This issue brings Bergen's narrating style once again side by side with his creativetake on visuals using various images and combing them together. This issue sets up events later to come, but doesn't hold back from giving some powerful scenes from beginning to end — as one page hints at “And now? Shit's going to really hit the fan.”

Issue #4 of Trista and Holt takes the story to a new level of drama as we're left with an ending that leaves everything is disarray — will Trista be okay?!

Issue #5 of Trista and Holt adds another layer of suspense into the fold as the story continues to travel deeper into hardboiled storytelling territory.

Issue #6 of Trista and Holt complicates things a bit for its characters, but this wild noir ride just keeps getting better.

Andrez Bergen opens up the doors into new scenarios and plots in the world of Trista and Holt. This issue takes it a bit slower in terms of the big timeaction, but keeps its pace with witty remarks and plenty of hard-boiled scenery. Now we sit in wait for issue #9wondering if we'll get a whole issue written in that “outrageous french accent”.

Something Bergen has been doing well with this series is making each issue feel like its own individual story, and yet still connected to the main story line (he also did this with Bullet Gal). Even if you haven't been reading Trista and Holt this issue is loaded with enough to keep you entertained.

Issue #10 of Trista and Holt raises some questions for the reader. We're looking in on this scenario and trying to figure out what's real and what isn't. Is there a real connection happening here…or is it just a matter of manipulation? And if it is…who is manipulating who?

Something that is done well once the action kicks up is the level of suspense Orlando brings to this story. Faith and Beckett bring these scenes into the night as Virgil begins to take revenge on all those who have wronged him " this isn't a guy you want to piss off. He's a man on a mission, and there are a lot of people standing in his way. Will he be able to finish the job?

Issue #1 of We Are Robin sets up a promising start to an underground world of Robins – but will they be enough to clean up the streets and sewers of Gotham after Joker made such a mess? And how many different combinations of red, yellow, and green are there? Get out your calculators, kids!

This issue brings another layer of mystery into the fold as the Robins are all called to a meeting spot without much clue as to why. It slowly unfolds what their next mission is but who is behind this information? Are they being helped by him?

Gotham's newest vigilantes take a big hit in this issue as Bermejo lays down some heart wrenching scenes. Corona and Mulvihill create some explosive scenes together as well. But it all makes you wonder"how far are the Robins willing to go to continue this crusade? Is it all or nothing?

Issue #4 of We Are Robin goes over the top with its storytelling as well as artwork. Bermejo continues a strong narrative while working with talented artists each issue. It's a Batman story full of teenagers fighting the same crusadekind of like if Batman wasn't a billionaire and had a curfew.Whether you're a bit late to the series or wondering if it's something you'd want to readjust start with this issue and do some backtracking, because once you check this out you'll be hooked!

Issue #5 of We Are Robin once again hits hard. Bermejo is creating a story where a bunch of kids are pushing back against authority (most prominently seen in the reaction Robo-Bats has given them) and slowly beginning to second guess themselves. The man they grew up admiring seems to have told them to stop their crusade, and the person helping them push forward remains a mystery to them. With the introduction of a new mentor however, it seems like the Robins will have even more decisions to face…as saying no to a person such as this…might not be an option.

More was revealed this week regarding the history of these Wytches, and of the Rooks' new home. Is anywhere safe?

Snyder's horror story continues strong as Mr. Rook takes big risks to try to rescue his daughter in the latest issue.

X'ed #1 is a crazy sci-fi adventure. It's a cross between classicMichael Crichton and today's James Cameron. Tony Patrick lays the groundwork for a tale that can take the reader anywhere they can “imagine” as he's accompanied by talented artistsAyhan Hayrula, and Doug Garbark. X'ed has the action you're looking for along with the story and artwork to back it up.

Writer Marguerite Bennet gives a steady history of what's been going down, as well as a look into how many mutants are left and some of the ones everyone is looking for (where's Storm?!).

Zodiac Starforce #1 does a great job at setting up the world and team while giving a significant amount of background info into how things “used to be”. These girls have a lot to work out amongst themselves, but when something happens to their friend they all jump into save her but is it too late?
