But that said this particular issue was well worth the wait as I had very nearly forgotten that I had subscribed to this book.

Matt Fraction giving us a ghost Adventureman story this close to Christmas is genius.

Additionally, this issue is a wonderful introduction for the cowboy hero Champion Strong, who I am hoping we'll see more of in the months ahead. |

If I have any criticism of this book.

I guess the writer is saving all of that for later issues. Either way, it would be cool to see that. |

The artwork is pretty good for a black and white book and allows you to fill in the colors with your own imagination. Out of the three stories. I found ‘Bite' to offer the most interesting reinterpretation whereas ‘Safiya' was the most visually interesting. |

Avatar (2019): Adapt or Die #3

OverallThis story continues to move along at a satisfying pace. The events of a virus taking out the indigenous life on Pandora is somewhat similar to what happened to many Native American tribes when the European settlers made America their home. Bringing with them strains of many viruses and diseases that the Native tribes had no immunity to. The interplay between Moat and Eytukan provides the backbone of this story as Eytukan's anti-human views give him some compelling arguments. We also have some nice moments between Grace and Selfridge as the latter says that the disease could well make his job easier. Of course, Grace isn't too impressed with Selfridge's attitude. |

Bettie Page: Halloween Special #1
Oct 23, 2018 |
OverallAn enjoyable read and a reminder that I cannot have enough Bettie Page comic book stories in my life. I was really impressed with what Leah Williams did with so little space to fill and Dave Avallone continues to impress with his knack for being able to write a pulp story and create dialogue that fits specific time periods. |

OverallA solid opening issue, which sets the ball rolling on another bunch of adventures for Bettie Page. I'm looking forward to seeing where David Avallone will take this in future issues. I really enjoyed how we got a brief callback to the Halloween issue, which was released last month and I really appreciated how fast we got into the adventure. I look forward to seeing what Bettie thinks of the English dessert known as Spotted Dick. If indeed she has time for such trivial pursuits. |

Most of all though. It is the way the mystery of this book is set up. It very much feels like a 1930s and 40s movie serial with the cliffhanger ending, which keeps you on the edge of your seat. I can't wait for issue 3. |

My only complaint is the lettering. In the panels where Bettie is wearing the helmet. It is barely visible due to the fact that her voice sounds lower. The letterer chose to have the lettering fade to a point where even the most sighted person would have to squint in order to read this dialogue. I have friends that are partially sighted who read comics that would have struggled with this. So I have to address this issue by asking if there might have been another way to sell this fact in the story. Instead of fading the text so much. |

Overall. The Agatha Christie feel of this story reminded me of countless movies and TV shows have seen over the years. Though I don't think any of them had a heroic Elephant called Tuskems. In a sense, it was the use of the Agatha Christie-style mystery that gave this comic a warm and familiar feeling. Although I had pretty much figured out who the villains were a couple of issues back. But, despite that. I still had fun following along with the story. It's a fun read, but not the best Bettie Page story to come from Dynamite. |

The dialogue is quick and snappy and some of the morally questionable things that Tim gets up to in order get information are rather funny if not also a little dated. I mean giving a weed addict oregano is about as old school as it gets, but it works given that Tim is old school and always will be. |

Elvira: The Shape of Elvira #4
Dec 5, 2019 |
This has been a fun series to follow. It is apparent that David Avallone's imagination knows no bounds when it comes to writing leading ladies in comics, which is something that has been apparent since he released his Betty Page comics. His take on Elvira has been as good as Betty. So much so that I think it would be fun to see a crossover between the two ladies in a future series. You could probably do Elvira, Betty Page, and Vampirella in the one series. Of course, Dynamite would have to give the go-ahead on that, but hell. I'd read it. |

OverallThus far Tini Howard has done a fairly good job of moving this story forward. We get a look at some Scottish folklore here when it comes to the Selkie and it was fun to see some Druids brought into the story. We also learn that it is a rival tribe to these druids that have been helping Morgana, which could make for some interesting events in issue 3 given that Apocalypse and unconscious Rogue are the only defence for the Lighthouse given that Captain Britain has gone off to the otherworld. |

There was some really cool stuff in this issue. Writer Tim Howard seems to be setting up a huge challenge for Betsy Braddock to take on in the next issue where she will have to find a way to return all the mythical monsters back to their own realm and keep Britain safe, but how will she manage to do that with Akaba being against her as well as Morgan Le Fey? I guess we are going to have to wait and see, but it does look like Apocalypse may have a bigger role to play as the story moves forward. |

Thankfully we didn't get too much of apocalypse's subtle plotting in this issue, but he does get referenced. I loved the descriptions within the book about the history of the various swords as well as the history of the Captain Britain Corps. It is a good way to include new readers into the story. Overall.

OverallTini Howard continues to weave an interesting and fun story. I've really enjoyed the inclusion of Merlyn and now King Arthur. Though King Arthur being the bad guy in this is something I am not sure about. Hopefully, Betsy and her team are able to make him see reason. As I suspect Merlyn's influence on Arthur is a huge part of what will wind up resolving this story arc. Furthermore, I'm finding Merlyn being such a closed-minded character to be a little disturbing. However, I do realise that art. Even when it comes to comics is rather subjective. And I am kind of enjoying how this book is challenging some of my pre-conceived ideas when it comes to the King Arthur legends. |

I quite enjoyed the social commentary of the book and really appreciated Frontiersman's reluctance to go back out into the big bad world to make a stand on something. I particularly enjoyed Frontiersman's conversation with Professor Unicell toward the end of the book. And look forward to seeing where this all goes in the second issue. |

I loved the little moral story tagged on at the end where a young kid is having trouble with his computer and gets a bit of advice from Mainframe who tells the kid that he should always think before taking any drastic actions. This sort of moral story at the end of a story was pretty common in 80s cartoons. I can't wait to see what happens in the next issue. I loved this. |

OverallAnother really enjoyable issue, which shows us why so many people fell in love with the character of Kate Bishop. I've really enjoyed the moments throughout all issues thus far where we have heard Kate's internal dialogue. You can almost imagine it as narration in the Marvel TV series, which I hope we'll get to see after the success of the Hawkeye TV series. |

It's brilliant to see some of the different incarnations of He-Man and his friends. I also loved that they brought back Gwildor from the movie. |

Tim Seeley's narrative has been thankfully fairly easy to follow with each issue, which is a miracle given that with it being set in a different universe in each issue it could be a lot more complex. I really liked the good humor in this issue and the cheesy jokes coming for Orco who was looking to have Holidays named after him. This immediately made this issue feel like the animated show that I remembered watching as a kid in the 80s. So this was a rather nostalgic issue for me. |

OverallThis was a fairly good conclusion to the current story arc, but also an origin story of sorts for the partnership of James Bond and Brandy Keys, which is going to continue into the next story arc. As a long term Bond fan. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about his being partnered up for the long term, but I do like the partnership that has formed here in that Brandy seems very much like James Bond in that she is a rule-breaker, but unlike Bond, she is across all the details. Whereas Bond is always off the cuff in that he improvises a lot more than he plans. All I ask of the writers is this, please don't have Bond and Brandy fall in love'. It never ends well when Bond falls in love. |

I've enjoyed how Benson has played counter arguments at his accusers. It kind of puts me in mind of the sort of arguments that Sherlock Holmes would make if he was in the same situation. Over all. This is a pretty solid first issue. |

Nov 10, 2020 |
This opening issue sets things up brilliantly. But it also shows me just how much I have missed given that Maurice had only awoken from his coma and just begun his campaign of blackmail when I last read Kick-Ass. Nevertheless, I had little problem picking up the story and was caught up pretty quickly. Steve Niles writing is quick and fast and doesn't overly rely on exposition. Instead, he uses dialogue and action to move things along, which allows Marcelo Frusin lots of room to use his imagery to push the story forward. In short, this first issue hits really hard and pulls you in, and doesn't let go. It's a brilliant opener. |

On the whole, this is a brilliant issue and a fantastic example of an artist and writer that are truly in sync with each other. I loved how the writer managed to give us Hit-Girl and Kick-Ass's parallel stories prior to the meeting on the final page. The build-up is brilliantly executed in my opinion. For instance, the way in which Kick-Ass is eavesdropping on Kick-Ass as she takes out the gang members. It's all brilliantly done. I can't wait for the next issue to come round. |

Sofia's friend Imogen swoops in and uses some of her magic to contain Yelena so that Sofia can rescue her old friend Rigo. But even in captivity, Yelena is still dangerous. |

This issue for me doesn't really conclude the story. It's left open at the end, which can only mean that Image is hoping for Whitta to continue it at some stage or it is going to be left as is. If it's the latter. I will be rather pissed off because despite my lateness with this review. I was waiting for nearly 5 months for this final issue, so feel a bit underwhelmed by the ending. For sure Prospero's fate was very sad and well handled. But I would really like to have seen Oliver making his way to London. Meeting Fagan, Bill Sykes, Dodger and many of the other Dickens characters, but with Gary Whitta's take on them. |

My only criticism of the story is the pacing. We seemed to spend a lot of time with the soldiers explaining why they were in the jungle and so forth. Which is something that could have been done with fewer words. Aside from that. I rather enjoyed this issue and look forward to seeing how Sheena handles her first meeting with the surveyor. |

Now they are delivering some real danger and situations in order to make us get behind these characters and feel the shock and awe while whooping at their every victory. |

I loved how he has Cody take Thena through her plan and the various stages of it. It felt a little like Oceans 11 meets Prison Break and Star Wars. |

It is very apparent that seeds are being sewn for the final issue, which promises to be an absolute stonker if the final page cliffhanger is anything to go by. Like pretty much most readers. I can't wait to see how all of this will end, but also hope it will lead to some further adventures for these two strong female characters. |

Jan 23, 2023 |
The writing team made clever use of Q for this story and reuniting Q with Sisko was fun to see given that the characters have only encountered each other once and the DS9 series. The book leaves off with a fun tease for the next issue in which I think we will see Sisko visit a planet of Gods, hmm, I wonder if he will get to ask these gods if they need the use of his Starship. I'm pretty sure Scotty will have a word or two to say about that. All in all this story feels like a Star Trek story. |

This issue does a fairly decent job of continuing this outlandish and metaphysical story in which Sisko gets to go where absolutely no one has gone before as he talks a God down from wiping out the Earth. Added to this we get a nice reference to the first issue of Star Trek: Defiant as Sisko looks to recruit someone to take over from Worf as his second in command. For now the story pauses as the Theseus returns home to DS9. But the hunt to capture Kahless will most likely continue in future issues. |

The ArtworkThe artwork throughout this book is fairly solid but is a bit hit-and-miss with some of the character likenesses. Specifically when it comes to Sisko's wife. That said the drawings of the various locations such as Quarks Bar are fairly strong. By far the strongest art is when we see a fleet of Dominion War-era Cardassian Ships go up against Sisko. |

At a certain point in this story.

The art for this segment, which sees Theseus kitted out with Bajoran Sales is brilliant to look at. It also made me smile seeing Tom Paris's big goofy grin while using an old ship's steering wheel to steer the ship. |

This is a great start to a story that will resolve over the next few issues. The question is what will Kirk and Gary Seven come up with that will allow them both to continue on their respective missions. What compromise will have to be made? I can't wait to find out. |

We're left with an open-ended close to the story as we wait with bated breath to find out if Kirk and his crew will take a side trip to investigate an area of space that has gone unexplored. It's just enough to whet our appetites for next month's installment. |

Gary Sevens' appearance in this issue was quite dramatic and only added to the fun. Although, I am a bit concerned with where this particular aspect of Year Five is going. Particularly, given that Gary Seven is a favorite character of mine from the original Star Trek series. And I'd not want to see him being Kirks' enemy forever. So I do hope it gets resolved. |

OverallKelly and Lanzing do a brilliant job on this issue. It felt very much like an episode of the TV show as the character interactions were so consistent with how they'd have been performed. Also, the return of Ambassador Renei of Andoria as well as Gary Seven and the Tholian attack add that extra element of tension to the proceedings. Which makes for a fantastic cliffhanger. Bring on issue 23. |

I didn't mind Gary Seven being a villain for a while as he was following the orders of Aegis. But I felt the story didn't resolve particularly well because taking the enhancements away from Gary Seven is stripping him of a big part of what makes him such a unique Star Trek character. |

I look forward to next month's issue so I can see how this story arc will meld into the next one. The past few months of this ongoing series have been really strong and have introduced some fantastic characters along the way. So I am looking forward to seeing how they come across Hoth and what difficulties they get into as they set up the new Rebel base. That is assuming that we get to see it happen. |

Either way. Whatever happens. I'm sticking with this until Marvel decide to end the ongoing. But it would be great to actually advance the story forward so new fans can see what happens between films as well as events that happen in post Return of the Jedi. Maybe show us how the First Order came to be. |

Star Wars (2014): Empire Ascendant #1
Dec 20, 2019 |
OverallStar Wars: Empire Ascendant is a great way to show readers the larger 'Star Wars' comicsverse and show off all the talent and different stories that are on offer. At present, we only really cover the main Star Wars title and plan to continue to do so as well as picking up the odd mini-series along the way. But reading this book has given me some food for thought in regards to whether we should add one of the other ongoing titles. |

Given that we never got the opportunity to see that happen in the movie series. A return to Bespin awaits in the next issue and I am looking forward to seeing how that will play out. |

I also liked the fact that Lando has gone back to Cloud City for Lobot, who was instrumental in helping him get Leia and Chewbacca out of Cloud City during ‘Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back'. It will be interesting to see how he is used as this story develops. |

Charles Soule writes a pretty fast-paced action-adventure story here. But I was a little disappointed that we didn't get to spend at least one more issue on Bespin give the iconic place it has in Star Wars. Thankfully we do get a valid reason for the rush in which the rebels escape so there is some story logic for what seems like a slightly rushed story arc. |

Charles Soule creates another action-packed issue, which expands on Luke Skywalker's journey to becoming the Jedi that we eventually see in 'Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi', but we also get a little foreshadowing for the much-derided 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' during the sequence where Verla warns Luke about his future relationship with the Force. Hopefully, we'll get to see a lot more mythology surrounding the force in future issues. |

Meanwhile, back at the rebel fleet. Lobot is still being used as a link up to the old droid in order to help C3PO record the ancient language needs for the new code. Unfortunately, the effort it is taking is hurting Lobot and his friend Lando isn't happy with the situation. Leia, who is thinking of the bigger picture orders C3PO to carry on working. But when Lando objects and tries to put a stop to things. She orders Kes Dameron to take him to the brig. Will it all be for nothing? |

‘Reflections on the Lost!' does a brilliant job of giving us some backstory for Han Solo, who we'll not see a great deal of in this ongoing series because he is frozen in carbonite and probably mounted on Jabba's wall by now. Charles Soule spins an interesting story, which fills in some character details for Han. But also manages to give us more of a backstory for the Dameron's whose young son Poe has a big future ahead of him. |

Charles Soule does a great job with this issue. I really enjoyed the use of Amilyn Holdo as the person that delivers the news about Han to Leia. Additionally, I especially liked the callbacks to 'Solo: A Star Wars Story' as Lando recalls the events that took place when he is talking with Chewie about going on the mission. Of course this being Lando, he does have another agenda. For my money. This is the best issue of the 'War of the Bounty Hunters' story to date. |

OverallAnother fun chapter in Luke Skywalkers journey to becoming the young Jedi Knight that we wind up eventually meeting in Star Wars: Return of The Jedi. I really enjoyed Luke's exasperation with the Holocron not initially giving him the lessons that he wanted. But also liked the introduction of Elzar Mann and the conversation that he winds up having with Luke. Especially the part where Mann explains that the Jedi Order has always had to adapt to the times and has never remained the same. |
