All in all this first issue serves as a fairly good jump on point for anyone wanting to check out 'Suicide Squad', but it will not blow away those that have read the previous incarnations of this comic.

I enjoyed the meeting of the various characters at the beginning, but do not feel I know enough about these characters as yet to be able to care for them as I do for other comic book heroes. Hopefully, this will be addressed in the second issue because I think there is some potential there. In a small way, the other characters put me in mind of the various characters that have worked with Doc Savage over the years, but they need a bit more fleshing out in order to make me care.

Kieron Gillen's story continues to spin its wheels with a lot of technobabble based in physics and some philosophical questions to ponder, but unfortunately, the overload of dialogue is slowing down pacing to a point where the book is more of a chore to read than it is fun.

This opening issue is very much set up. But its pretty good set up in that there is nothing putting me off returning to the book for issue two just yet. 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.

To sum up, this isn't a bad story. But it's not the best thing have read either. The character of Keeve feels like your stereotypical girl next door. Nothing really stands out about her other than her Jedi stuff. I can't really see her becoming as popular or as liked as an Ahsoka Tanu for example. But maybe I am being a bit unfair. I feel it was a bit of a mistake having her pass her Jedi Trails so fast. It may have been better to have introduced her at an earlier stage in her Jedi training. Much like how Ahsoka is introduced to us in the Clone Wars movie.

Overall though. I'm still not especially invested in this story or these characters.

Overall. I'm probably going to stick with this comic until it concludes. But for time being. I am not being wowed by anything that ‘The High Republic' has to offer. It feels very much like a poor man's version of ‘Knights of the Old Republic'. Quite frankly. I'm getting rather bored of this.

OverallThis story continues to be a very hit-and-miss affair with me. To a point where I am quite glad that this is the penultimate issue because it means I only have one left to read. The plot twist with Sskar being able to fend off the influence of the Drenger was pretty obvious. I sort of saw it coming right away. Overall on its own merit. This is not a bad issue. It just that the overall story just has not been doing it for me.

Overall. ‘American Mythology Monsters' is a fun reinterpretation of the classic Universal Monster movies from the 1930s. 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.

Overall though. This is a fun first issue, which does a superlative job of capturing the spirit of both Xena Warrior Princess and Ash and Army Of Darkness. I look foreword to seeing how things pan out in the second issue.

Overall. I'm probably in for another issue to see how it goes. Overall it is pretty true to the Barbarella character and visual goes a little further than the movie could ever go.

I think Houser may have been able to provide a fuller Moneypenny story had she had more than just the one issue to impress us with.

Overall though this is an enjoyable start to another Adventure for Flash Gordon and his friends and I look forward to reading the next issue with great anticipation.

The art work by M.L. Sanapo pretty solid, but the likeness to the television characters wasn't to great. Which can be bothering on occasion, but in this instance the art was consistent throughout the book. I liked the opening sequence of the robbery.

Again the art work byM.L. Snap services the story, but any likeness to the television characters is not that great, but I do like his interpretation of the characters in spite of this.

I look forward to issue 3 with great excitement to see where else this mystery will lead.

The artwork by Moritat seemed a little inconsistent in this issue. Specially when the scene changed to Swamp Thing and Mercury in the ROT. I'm not sure if it was the colours or the art generally. But the overall image quality seemed to visibly drop a little when in the ROT. It was a little like going for HD to Analogue.

Overall. This was a pretty solid first issue, which has enough story to keep me involved for issue 2, which I should imagine will be out next month. There's no doubt about it. Bond is back!

It be interesting to see how her relationship with Geary develops as the story progresses. It be especially interesting given that they were both on apposing sides of a war that went for over 100 years.

Over all though. This story has got off to a bit of a mixed start. But I'm intrigued enough to come back and try the second issue.

As first issues go. This was blatantly set up, but was fun with some really cool gadgetry. I'm definitely onboard for another issue to see where all of this leads. Special mention should go to the colourist. Who was obviously having a bit of a 1960's acid trip.

This solid art combined with some really nice colour work make for a really good introduction to Red Sonja for any newbies wanting to jump on, but be warned. The story ends with a cliffhanger.

This isn't a bad story, but I can't help but feel that the character of Beauregard is getting a lot more attention than the titular character who seems to be a lot less streetwise than previous incarnations of her character that have been published by Dynamite. Hopefully, we see Bettie evolve in future issues because right now she doesn't seem to be the same character that I have read in previous books as Beauregard seems to be doing all the investigation.

If you appreciate pulp storytelling and enjoy old school detectives. Then you'll likely really get a kick out of Doctor Radar. Hopefully, the second issue will give us a little bit more from the villain's point of view.

I'm definitely in for the second issue to see where this goes.

This issue continued the story brilliantly from where things left off last issue and gave us a pretty fun caper. Sure cheating at a poker game is a little bit of a cliche, but it was executed brilliantly in this story.

Thus far this story is proving to be very enjoyable. I hope that it continues in this way. So we can enjoy more stories in the future.

Dynamite have done a great job of bringing Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys back for a modern day audience and in so many ways make up for the 2007 Nancy Drew movie, which didn't really find its audience.

I've really enjoyed this run of Nancy Drew and with only an issue or two left to go I am anxious to learn whether it will be a license that Dynamite will hold onto and perhaps do more with in the future.

Although this final issue wraps up one story. The threads are left hanging for another, which will see Nancy and the Boys investigating a mysterious syndicate.

This is a fun book for the holiday's, but nothing really much beyond that. The first story is perhaps the most Christmas like. While the second is more of a morality tale.

It will be interesting to see where this goes in the other issues, which are to come. But for me it is the art work that kept my attention throughout this. Nothing wrong with the writing as such. I just wanted something to happen.

Released through Titan Comics in the UK. Windhaven is available to buy at any good bookstore or online shop for 19.99. It would make a good Christmas present for fans of George R.R. Martin and Lisa Tuttle.

I enjoyed the comics story and the art work was of good enough standard that it showed you what you needed to see without pulling you out of the story.

Much like last issue. It is surprising me just how different the comic book adaptation is to the TV series and how events seem to happen in a different order.

I now look forward to issue five, which will likely feature Shadow and Mr. Wednesday's bank robbery and will be followed up with their meeting with the new gods.

Overall. A really promising start to what looks like being one hell of a great story. BSG vs BSG will hit comics stores on Wednesday of next week.

A crossover between the original Battlestar Galactica crew and the Re-imagined crew was always going to present fun and interesting ideas. But you have to wonder if some of those ideas are perhaps left as just ideas and not allowed to germinate beyond that.

Overall. Despite my issues with the artwork. This is a case of a damn good story taking shape. I love the fact that Iblis has come into play here and wonder how long it will be before the ship of lights shows up. This issue has a few shocking moments and sees one of the Adama's acting very much out of character.

Once again. If your looking for the artwork to be representative of the characters from both television shows. Don't hold your breath. Johnny Desjardins characterizations are more his interpretation than they are accurate and it can be a bit jarring. So best to keep your expectations fairly low because the only characters he has anywhere close to how they are supposed to look are those characters from the re-imagined universe and even then it is hit and miss.

To sum up. This will likely be worth having in trade paperback when it gets released, but it is more of a fun item to have in your Battlestar Galactica collection.

This first issue of the latest story arc is not up to that standard, but as yet it is early days.

Will he return to Kun Lun to become reacquainted with Show-Lao or will he wind up having to return to New York?

This was a pretty solid Iron Fist story, but didn't really live up to the high standards set by Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction in their 'Immortal Iron Fist' run from 2008.

As things stand. Luke Cage is pretty much a beaten man by the close of this issue. But the fight sequence and the panels didn't really leap out at me or inspire that dropped jaw moment.

Overall this was an exciting second issue, which gave us a bit more of a mystery to ponder and introduced some interesting new characters to proceedings.

Over all this is the best issue to date. I look forward to seeing how all this gets wrapped up.

Yet another great issue of this series by David F. Walker. I absolutely loved Bernstein's speech where he tries to justify his actions and also tries to claim credit for making Luke Cage who he is.

The artwork in this issue was as consistent as ever. Great issue.

In regards to the story. This is a great issue, which promises to be interesting as we learn more of what The Ringmaster has in store for Luke.

The next issue takes us to the mines, which are the very heart of this arcs mystery. Why is it that no one has returned or lived to tell the tale?

Overall. This is a nice final issue of the ‘Caged' mini-series, which would work just as well as a stand-aloneissue. Given that other than Luke returning home. It had very little to do with the story arc, which really closed out in the last issue. But as its own thing. This issue works well and offers up some nice respite from the intensity and action of the previous 4 issues.

Overall. This was an okay introduction and will work for those new to Nancy Drew, but I was a little underwhelmedby the fact that so much time was spent on Nancy getting re-acquaintedwith the Bayport locals. There didn't seem to be any clues or leads included in this first issue. Hopefully, we see some forward momentum in issue 2 next month.

The Artwork by Jen St-ongecontinues to do some really nice things. I loved the drawings of Nancy and the gang when they were kids exploring the same caves and the facial expressions are really well drawn. There is kind of a Japanese influence to the drawing with the use of rather large eyes.

The artwork from Jen St-onge continues to impress and has a rather Saturdaymorning cartoon feel to it with a touch of anime. I also liked her drawings of the various locations throughout Bayport. Specifically the old workplace of Pete's mother, which looks like a pretty roughneck place to hang out.

This is another strong issue, which has me intrigued enough to tune in next month.

Overall. A really solid first issue, which has left me wanting to learn more.

Overall. Nowhere near as strong as the opening issue, but not quite bad enough to put me off coming back for the next issue.

Overall this is a promising beginning to what could turn out to be an interesting story arc given that Tim is looking for the magical urn that created the project superheroes team in hopes that it will reunite him with his version of Black Terror. 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.

I enjoyed how we got the flashback to Vietnam and how the events that went down there sort of impacted on Black Terror having to do something for Bad Groove by the end of the issue.

The only redeeming part of the story for me was the Flashback. Now has the book been focused on that story as opposed to the soap opera that we got here. I'd have been a little happier. But it just seemed like the story was kind of disjointed in that the writer was trying to do far too much in just one issue.

Once again Jody Houser delivers a fun story, which I am sure is going to have lots of plot twists as it all develops. This opening issue does not include the Doctor. But it would seem that The 12th Doctor is likely to turn up at some stage in this story. However, for now, the main story focuses on Doom and her remaining 24 hours as she tries to find the Doctor. And not The Doctor Who that Missy is pretending to be.

Overall. The story doesn't really conclude, but sometimes a story left open can make for a better story or even stories.

This prelude does a wonderful job of adding more layers to a story arc that was started a few months back in the regular ongoing Star Trek comics series. I look forward to reading the first official issue next week to see how it will cross over with the new Defiant book as well as the other Star Trek comic titles that I buy.

I have a feeling that I may be reading a few more issues of 'The Hellblazer' in the coming months.

That said. I'd rather IDW have done a comic book based on the character from Highlander The Series. But maybe that is one that they can do in the future.

All this said. Over all. This comic book prequel story to the first Highlander movie continues to entertain and is a welcome read.

I also enjoyed the fact that it was hinted that the order of Monks that Vazilek is with know about the immortals. It makes sense. If anything the Monks and Holy Men of time would be the most likely to know about the immortals.

That moment in the comic encapsulated perfectly the kind of humour that the Highlander films and TV series sometimes had.

I've really enjoyed this run on Highlander and I hope that IDW are able to get the rights to do more with the characters from the Highlander universe.

This is a fairly good start. Not spectacular by any stretch of the imagination, but it's a strong enough start to keep me interested enough to read the next issue.

As opening issues go. This was pretty solid story telling. I'm sold enough on this to keep my eyes open for the next issue.

I have fun while reading this and quite enjoyed the two contrasting styles.

I'm most likely on board with this for at least one more issue to see where it goes.

OverallThis is another fun issue, which mixes a little history with the politics and social mores of the period. Mark Russell's writing treads very carefully with some rather difficult subject matter. He manages to portray the casual racism of the period really well and Tonto's brief quip about hiding in plain sight among other natives illustrates the ignoranceof the period without it coming off as too preachy.

For a first issue. This does the job perfectly and it is a comic that I will most likely follow in the months to come.

The writing by Mike Johnson is pretty confident and he seems to have the voices of the characters down pretty well. The art byGeorge Caltsoldas and Tony Shasteenworks well in servicing the story. I loved the visual of Uhura in full Vulcan dress.

We are left with an exciting Cliffhanger, which again borrows from ‘Best Of Both Worlds', but instead of Picard. It is Spock who will be borgified. Will Kirk have the gumption to fire on his best friend?

As you recall. I initially complained about this being kind of a clone of ‘Best Of Both Worlds', which it was. But I am happy to say that this final issue kind of changed the story significantly enough for it to be able to stand on its own. Especially given how Spock was used in the story.

I have to admit. I was late to reading and reviewing this issue because of a lot of real life stuff getting in the way, but am glad I found the time because this issue deserves a look. Especially if you are fan that wants to learn some of Jaylah's backstory.

In fact the final page of the story sees the Tal Shiar looking to recruit her, which could make for an interesting side story. I'm kind of hoping she joins.

Overall this is a promising start to a new arc, which has some likeable characters in the new cadets.

Overall. A fairly confident first issue. Not sure if am hooked though.

The artwork from Tony Shasteen is pretty consistentthroughout the comic. We even have a few of the Klingons on Boreth sporting facial hair in the same style that you'd expect to see on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Whether this is something that we'll eventually see on the actual TV series remains to be seen. But it was good to see a few Klingon's with facial hair again.

OverallThis is a pretty strong first issue and I feel really compelled to get to work on reviewing issue 2, which I hope to put up tomorrow. Kirsten Beyer who was also a writer on the TV show has done a pretty good job of tying things into the continuity of the classic series without taking anything away from the Star Trek: Discovery characters. L'Rell is well written and it is obvious that she is going to be walking a fine line during the peace treaty. I also love the fact that she has involved a young commander Kor as her personal security. Something about keeping friends close and your enemies closer.

Overall. A fairly good issue with a fantastic cliffhanger ending. I look forward to the next issue, which I hope will come later in the month. Kapla.

Despite those issues though. This was well worth a read and a solid continuation from where the second season of ‘Star Trek: Discovery' left off.

Overall. This first issue looks like its setting up what could be a fun series. I look forward to seeing if the comics writer includes any of the stories told about Picard's time at the academy that got mentioned during Star Trek: The Next Generation. As there are a few good ones that they could draw upon.

Now absolutely in TNG the younger Picard we saw in the episode Tapestry could be kind of a jerk. But I don't think he was ever as big of a jackass as Maggs seems to be painting him as in this book. Sure that may be some redemption for him to get to toward the close of the story arc. But this is feeling like a character deconstruction too far.

Thankfully for Picard, some of his classmates break him and Resh up and help the future Enterprise captain back to his quarters where they all open up to each other about their shared fears for their forthcoming exam.

Overall a solid issue that leaves us with a nice cliffhanger to keep us guessing to the next issue.

OverallPicard's Academy continues to give us a bit of insight into Jean Luc's early days at Starfleet Academy and shows how difficult he found it to make friends. However, one of the elements missing from the story is some of the incidents mentioned throughout TNG's run whenever Picard talked about his time in the Academy or whenever someone else mentioned it. For example, in The Best of Both Worlds Admiral Hanson talks about how Picard surprised everyone by winning the Academy Marathon. It would be great to see some of these anecdotal stories brought to life in this series.

Sam Maggs finishes her Picard story with a bit of flair and makes clever use of Boothby to help wrap things up. Throughout this story, we have seen a very different Jean Luc Picard from the one that we know and love. It's been quite a character journey as the young Picard we see initially isn't, particularly the most likable of people. But by the close of this story we get to the Picard that Admiral Hanson describes in The Best of Both Worlds.

OverallFans of the Tank Girl comics will likely really love this given that the dialogue and the action are as anarchic as I remember. The dialogue, which is written by Alan Martin is as fast and loose as you'd expect for a Tank Girl comic and yes a lot of the humor is rather crude but a lot of fun if you are a fan of off the wall toilet humor.

A serviceable opening issue that does a reasonable job of setting the story up.

A solid second issue that does a wonderful job of recapturing the look and feel of the 1992 animated series, which many people continue to love to this day.

A fun stand-alone story to break things up a little. I look forward to next month when the next chapter will be unleashed.

If you are a fan of the previous two story arcs. You will not be disappointedwith this new arc.

I'm definitely in for the long haul on this one and look forward to the second quarter when issue two will be unleashed.

An awesome second issue, which builds on the story and sets things up beautifully for Oona's further adventures as she learns more about herself and explores the nine realms in her search. I loved the use of mythology and the playful dialogue between Oona and Pooka her Fairie Goat. I also loved that her being able to trick Loki didn't mean the end of the story.

This is a worthwhile book, which entertains and has an inspiring message that I think most people will be able to get behind.

I think at the end of the day. This story relies heavily on the reader actually knowing a bit about the world of Doctor Strange, which kind of works against it a little bit.

I love the old straight ahead style of story telling that Burroughs and his contemporaries were known for and Willingham despite the heavy handedness with exposition has captured some of the spirit.

Over all this second issue was an improvement over the opening issue, which got bogged down a bit in the task of introducing all the characters and setting the story up.

Looking forward to the next issue to see how Willingham will bring Game Theory into the mix.

The end of this issue is a real game changer and it does have me looking forward to the next issue in spite of my slight disappointment as the slow pace of this issue. Hopefully my excitement will be justified.

Overall. This was a pretty decent issue despite some of its pitfalls and the meeting between Tarzan and John Carter was the icing on the cake.

Overall. An exciting issue, which has a shock ending that will have you wondering if the news of a certain death is for real or just another plot twist?

Cezar Razek's art shines once again, but I can't help but think that he was not as challenged by this issue as he has been with past issues. There wasn't a great deal of action to draw or any big dinosaurs or set pieces.

Overall. This is a fantastic conclusion to what has been an exciting and fun 9 issue run with some of the most beloved characters from the worlds of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Although it has been difficult to keep track of all the characters at times. It's been fun nonetheless. This series has given us Dinosaurs, Mars and so much more. Dynamite will be hard pushed to top this one!

Having spent pretty much the whole weekend reading all 11 issues of this comic. I am now wanting to have more ‘Back To The Future' and the odd conundrum or two for Marty and Doc to solve. Which is something that seems to be happening as IDW continues on to the future.

As a regular reader of this series. I'm hoping that this is truly a one shot because I'd like to get back to the time travelling.

I only hope that they do not kill of Irving. He makes for a more interesting enemy that Biff or anything that we have seen thus far in this series.

This has been a wonderful arc. Amust have for those that buy the trade paperbacks.

Overall this is a fun story with lots of fun references, but it only really works as a bit of filler as in a one shot to buy us some time until the comics next big story arc.

A really enjoyable read and not even the tiniest hint of time travel thus far.

Over all this is a great second issue in the Hard Time story arc and I look forward to next months issue.

Given that we know so little about uncle Joey from the films. This comic book series has done a fabulous job of filling in some of those blanks.

IDW, Bob Gale and John Barber are doing some really cool stuff here.

I'm really looking forward to the next issue to find out how this arc will conclude.

Overall. This was a great ending for the mystery surrounding Joe Baines and a great launch point for a new adventure, which we'll see at some stage next year.

For a first issue, Bloodborne does a great job of drawing the reader into the world and the combination of writing and art style work really well and conveys the various narrative beats in a quick and concise manner.

Not bad, but there isn't really anything here as yet to keep me interested beyond the second issue.

Overall this is a pretty solid first issue and I'm invested enough to want to check out issue 2. Hopefully, we'll see a bit more action in the second issue too.

Overall. This is a solid second issue that moves the story along quite nicely. Obviously having had very little exposure to Dan Dare other than via the Big Finish Audio series. I'm no expert, but that's the beauty of what Titan is doing. It's a continuation but done in a way in which it is accessible to newer readers.

Overall. This was a great way to end the first story arc of Titan's new Dan Dare comics. I very much look forward to seeing how the next arc develops given that things are very much open for a shedload of new adventures.

OverallA really strong first issue that does a fantastic job of setting up the world in which Ghosts have become as common a problem to society as rats. I look forward to seeing where this goes in future issues.

A solid second issue that does a nice job of building on what was set up in the opening issue. I loved the character of Miss Barrimore being somewhat of a fly in the ointment toward the people that run the prison ship. It's especially fun given that she is the daughter of the gazillionaire who owns the fleet of prison ships that are mining ectoplasm.

I'm loving the all-out action of this book and can't wait for the next issue.

The StoryContinuing from the last issue. Miss Barrimore has just learned that the leader of the Ghosts that have taken over The Perdition is her late mother. As the ghost continues to terrorize the ship. The mother of ghosts tells Miss Barrimore about how her father trapped her and all the other ghosts on Earth in order to harvest their ectoplasm. Now the ghosts want to get off the ship and Barrimore' s late mother wants her revenge and plans to send the head of Barrico Industries to hell. Thankfully, Gus has a plan that will save the few survivors on the ship, but it requires a huge sacrifice.

This is a nice jumping on point for new readers and a fantastic way to introduce a new generation of comic book fans to Green Hornet. The artwork is serviceable with some nice touches and Chu's voicings for the various characters are very nicely done.

Overall. A solid second issue with a surprising cliffhanger that most fans will likely enjoy while simultaneouslyseeing it as a WTF moment. I look forward to the next issue to see where the story is going to go. Will we be staying in Istanbul for awhile? I hope so.

Amy Chu's characterizations continue to be really strong, but the narrative needs a little more of a push. Hopefully, we'll see that happen in the next issue.

I loved the introduction of Clutch as well as the little insight into the rather confusing family Tree that Kato has.

The various writers and artists have done a great job with this book. The stories are all a laugh-a-minute and give us a less serious look at the Marvel Universe. I loved the character drawings and various backdrops used in the issue. The thought of Howard The Duck leading the Guardians of the Galaxy was hilarious. Marvel should do something with this character and give him his own Disney Plus show. Even if it is just a one-off. It would be fun to see.

Overall. This is a very entertaining first issue, which lays some solid foundations for what is to come, which will likely be Wick being hunted by the Guild for his freelancing ways.

Overall. A very enjoyable second issue that builds off of the mythology of the two films and glimpses John Wick's murky past. And yes he does seem rather friendlywith a cat.

I look forward to seeing where this goes in the second issue.

M.A.S.K. Revolution is a great introduction to this world and a fantastic jumping on point if you are a newbie like me. I can't recommend this highly enough.

Overall there are a lot of moving parts to this first issue with a few flashbacks. I'm intrigued enough to continue reading for a while, but could grow tired of the politics involved if something does not happen in the next two issues.

This second issue of Rebel Moon: House of Bloodaxe continues to do a fairly solid job of revealing the complex politics that led to the destruction of Shasu and the absolute rise to power of Motherworld.

Overall a great issue that moves the story on a little and pretty much shows us the beginning of the end of the House of Bloodaxe's rule on the Planet of Shasu.

A solid start, which has me gagging to get the second issue.

Either way. It will be intriguing to see where David and Scott Tipton will take this story in the next issue.

I'd really like to see more Star Trek: Deep Space Nine comics and hope that this series gets enough in sales to encourage IDW to print more. Overall. A solid conclusion to what has been a fantastic story.

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.

Although it didn't feature the best stories I have ever read. Star Wars: Life Day does feature some fun stories in which we get to see the meaning of the Galaxies celebrations while also seeing Han and Chewie in time somewhere between the end of Return of The Jedi and the start of Force Awakens.

The StoryWhile on a diplomatic mission with Senator Yaru from Kashyyyk Senator Amidala and the Wookie diplomat are kidnapped by the Seperatist. However, Yaru is able to hide his young daughter before Grievous's battle droids are able to catch her. Hearing the news. The Jedi Council dispatch Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice Anakin Skywalker to launch a rescue mission. As they arrive on the planet. Obi-Wan and Anakin find Yaru's young daughter who leads them to where the separatist took her father and Senator Amidala.

While I wasn't overly impressed with the artwork for this. I did enjoy the story.

This was a fun book that I really enjoyed. I love Poe Dameron's attitude of what could possibly go wrong. Which is usually followed up with stuff going epically wrong.

A really fun book, which will no doubt make people feel nostalgic for Halloweens of years gone by.

It was a quick read and I was left caring enough for the characters to want to know what will happen next.

All in all this reads like a glossier high budget episode of ‘The Six Million Dollar Man'. It is great as both anentertaining comic and a piece of 70s nostalgia. Great work! More please.

Dynamite have done a super job with this book and I hope we'll get to see more comics based on the original ‘Six Million Dollar Man' in the future.

I bet that would have gone down real well in the 70's. Perhaps not.

OverallScott Allie and Gerard Way have come up with a fun little Christmas story, which makes clever use of the two popular assassins from The Umbrella Academy comic book. The ongoing conversation between Cha Cha and Hazel about ghosts was a lot of fun as was the side story involving Pete and Joey and the plot to reveal Santa's true plans to the world.

Overall. I quite enjoyed this first issue, but am hoping for more from the series. Much like the TV series of the Wheel of Time, the narrative can be a tad slow as various plots get set up.

Overall. This is a great first issue with a cliffhanger that will definitelykeep fans guessing to next month.

Eisma's art once more does a great job of capturing the mood and the 1970's dress sense, which was quite frankly terrible. I mean you could literally hide half of NATO's armory up your trouser legs back in the 70's. Especially when wearing flared pants.

One small complaint though is the lettering on page 17 where the Satanbratan is whispering. I literally had to strain my eyes to read what they were saying. I suggest maybe changing to a different font as opposed to making the text so minutely small that it is barely readable.

OverallThis is a very satisfying conclusion to the story, which bridges the gap between the original ‘Charlies Angels' and some of the other Angels from the original television series, but concludes thing in such a way that leaves it open for a more modern take on Charlies Angels with the original trio working behind the scenes. Which might actually be something that could work.

This is a fun book that both classic and modern Doctor Who fans will enjoy.

This is a really good collection of stories and a great way to introduce comic readers to the 13th Doctor and Doctor Who in general.

Doctor Who: The 13th Doctor #1 will be out in all good comics stores on Wednesday 7 November.

Overall. I really enjoyed this first issue of 2020, which is basically issue one of volume two of 13s comic book adventures. Houser continues to write the 13th Doctor better than she is written in the television series, but for how long remains to be seen. Given that the new series recently started and seemed to have shown a little improvement over last year's poor showing.

Writer Jody Houser has managed to offer up an intriguing Christmas mystery here and leaves us with a fantastic cliffhanger and a few questions. One of which being, 'is Santa really a bad guy?'

A fairly good issue that moves the story forward a little and comes up with a wicked way to introduce the Autons while simultaneously providing a scary final page that involves the weeping angels. Whatever you do. Don't ever blink.

Overall. I'm in it for one more issue, but I hope the story moves a bit quicker in the next issue.

This second book of the story arc scores really high on the Holiday fun factor despite the fact that it was sort of a predictable story, but with the solid artwork and the feel-good factor. You'd have to be a total Grinch not to go along with it.

The final page leaves us with a cracking cliffhanger as we return to London, which has been completely decimated. We do get a hint that it may not be our version of London because there is a wanted poster for what looks a little bit like Rose Tyler, which could suggest that it is the parallel version of London.

All that said. The art was solid and the story is not so bad that I don't want to see more from writer Jody Houser because there was potential here for a bigger and more sinister arc that could have tested and stretch the characters out. Hopefully, we get to see that happen in future arcs.

A really strong start, which ends on a cliffhanger that will perhaps just about keep fans hanging on for more to come in the next issue.

OverallWriter Jody Houser has managed to deliver a fun little mystery here, which makes better use of the characters and storytelling potential than the actual television series manages to do.

Overall. A really strong issue with a lot to like. But what does the podcast have to do with it all? I suspect we'll find out what it all means in the next issue. And I can't wait.

Houser gives us a story, which could only be done on Doctor Who and this is one that I think Chris Chibnall should look at commissioning for the TV series. Given that it is better than a majority of what he put out in his first season as the Doctor Who showrunner.

Overall. I have really enjoyed this comic and this story arc. I'd love to see the Corsair again in future issues. Why the BBC haven't used her in the TV series is beyond me.

This is a solid story with some spectacular artwork that very much syncs with what fans of the film would have seen on the big screens back when it was released in 1983. Hopefully, this issue will be the launch of a new line of comics for Dynamite.

The StoryIn the fight between Darkwolf and Otwa, the latter is defeated. However, Darkwolf spares his life and heads off. Meanwhile, a conclave of the fire tribes is held to decide a course of action against Juliana and the Ice Tribe. Elsewhere Juliana confirms Nekron as her new Heir given that Kaledan is now gone. Having found Otwa's broken body on retrieved it. Roliel works her magic to renew her son's strength but is interrupted part way by Juliana.

I picked up this first issue of Frontiersman on a whim as I was looking for an issue one of something new to jump on board with. So, I have very little knowledge of the character or any past stories that he may well have featured in. But the little I have read here. I've generally liked it. 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.

Patrick Kindlon adds a little more backstory to the plot as we see a few supervillains observing FM's latest stunts. The discussion between FM and Galaxie Prime is a lot of fun and very current as GP describes themself as being non-binary, which is a fun and interesting commentary on gender politics and identity. But a bulk of the discussion was GP pleading with FM to put them in contact with his Ex.

A Solid issue with a fantastic setup for next month's chapter.

OverallWhile there isn't too much action in this issue. We do get a nice exploration of Ethan's past relationship with Bryn and it looks like things may spill over into the next issue. The question is will Bryn stand by her man. Or will she go over to the dark side and stand against him.

Overall. A fantastic issue to close the story arc on, and a wonderful cliffhanger to keep us all guessing about what is to come next.

This is my first Godzilla comic. So I was unaware of past events that this comic referenced. But found the story and the characters to be quite easy to get to know so this felt like a pretty good jumping-on point for the series.

Erik Burnham continues to tease a little bit of the story out as opposed to revealing everything all at once. I loved the sequence where June and May were speaking psychically to Cedric and his friends from Infant Island and can imagine this story being a really cool animated cartoon series. I look forward to reading the next chapter when it drops next month.

Godzilla: Monsters & ProtectorsAll Hail the King! is proving to be a really entertaining book. I really like Cedric as a central character as have met kids like him in real life that think they know it all when they feel they are the sole authority on something. Also, the monster drawings are awesome. The Godzilla character drawing reminds me of the old Hanna Barbara animated show.

I continue to enjoy this story as the storyline and art style remind for of a really good Saturday morning cartoon. I love the idea of school kids having a connection to these monsters and being able to have some form of influence over them. I also enjoy seeing how threatened Cedric seems to feel when Karen is around.

Peepland goes on sale today and is a promising start to what could be an interesting look at crime in the mid 1980s.

OverallI initially got this issue because I was feeling nostalgic, but have found myself totally sucked into Tim Seeley's story and cannot wait for the next issue. 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.

This issue was okay I suppose, just nothing that had me going wow. It just wasn't anywhere near as strong as the opening issue.

OverallTim Seeley's journey through the different eras of He-Man continues and this latest issue had a little of everything. Unfortunately, we lose one of the two regular He-Men from this series, but plenty more where that came from. So I am not shedding any tears.

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.

This has to be the best issue of this series to date. I loved the backstory of this version of Eternia and how He-Man laid it all out for the other He-Man and Prince Kelder. And the way this issue ends has me looking forward to finding out how this will all be concluded. Given that there are no more He-Men left. Only Prince Keldor, Skeletor and Anti-He-Man.

Even the ending of the story was as sappy and preachy as I remember the 80s TV series to have been.

Matthew Erman'sdialogue for his characters is lots of fun. I loved the interaction between the older sister and her dog, but most amusing was the interaction between the younger sister and the old lady on the bus. I've actually met people like this on buses and usually went home thinking, ‘What?'

Overall. This is a great first issue that has me wanting more. What happened to Michael Williams? Will Wiggins manage to get away from the chemist? Does Michael Williams disappearance have any connection to the archaeologicalfindings that Holmes read about? I guess we're all going to have to wait to next month to get some of these answers.

Overall. This second issue does enough to keep you interested by teasing little hints and clues that will no doubt be explained as the mystery comes to its conclusion.

This is a solid issue, which gives us a few more questions to ponder.

Hopefully, we'll see more Sherlock Holmes from Dynamite in the not too distant future.

All this said. I'm hooked in enough to want to read the next issue to see where all this is going to go.

I particularly enjoyed the banter between Swiggy and Thomas at the start of the issue and I love that this world has pre cogs and psychics and such. Love the use of mythology in this book and the fact that Merlin is portrayed as more of a villain.

I look forward to the next issue to see where things will go.

I now anxiously wait until the next issue and hope that it is not going to be to long of a wait.

Overall. This has been an enjoyable comic book. The only thing I did not particularly enjoy was the long wait between issues. But that said it did not take away from my enjoyment of reading them when they came out.

Scorpius Run makes for a solid story, but thus far it's not really proving to be that original. Races that take place in space have been done many times before across a fairly wide range of comic books. That said. The setup for the story is done fairly well and it is early days as far as the story goes. So we'll hopefully see some original twists come up in later issues.

This is a really strong opening issue and I can't wait to read more of this story and find out what happens next month.

This second issue of The Scorpius Run does a pretty good job of moving the story forward. I liked the little insight that we got into how the other alien crews function and how we get shown that through Una and Spock's eyes. I also loved how well Mike Johnson and Ryan Parrott have written for Lt. Erica Ortegas, who is a character that I feel has been underwritten for on the TV series.

OverallThis book continues to entertain as we get a little insight into what may be happening in the space between seasons one and two of the series. I'm really enjoying the manipulative Da-Kil and how he seems to be playing a game with Captain Pike.

While the idea of a race through a dangerous sector of space isn't exactly new. Mike Johnson continues to make up for this fact with some interesting characterizations and alien races. Added to that. This story provides some great character growth for Lt. Erica Ortegas, who is a character who gets woefully neglected in the TV series.

This penultimate issue does a great job of setting things up for next month's finale, which will probably see Pike and the crew head off to Vulcan to find out what involvement the Vulcans had in the fate of the Illyrian planet. But will they also be able to solve the Illyrian Enigma and find a way to clear the Enterprise's First Officer?

The Scorpius Run has made for a fun mini-series and I look forward to seeing how it all ends when the next issue comes out in January of 2024.

Overall. I had fun with this series and would love for IDW to commit to an ongoing series using these characters. I'd also love to learn more about the Illrian race and see how they progress in both the TV and Comics universe.

A fun story with a satisfying conclusion. Now all we need is a new story or maybe even an ongoing Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Comic.

I really look forward to learning about Han's old friend in issue 4.

This first issue is very much set up. But I am hoping that it is set up for a regular comic book adaptation of the game's universe. So hopefully this is a success for the folks at Dynamite.

I have never played the tabletop game that this story and its characters are based on. I can't really comment as to how true it is the the worlds within the game or the different character classes. But the mere fact that Quig gets resurrected by the ship's healer is definitely worth the roll of a D20.

Starfinder is proving to be one of the comics that I most look forward to each month and I can't wait to see how this group of characters manage to escape and continue their adventures and what their next argument will be about.

This was a fun read and was definitely one of the darker stories from this series, but it also felt rather rushed.

OverallJames Tynion IVgives us a really cool story here. Reading how Ted Kord aka Blue Beetle slowly loses his sense of humanity and morality to the computer nanites that have merged with him was an intriguing journey. I felt the heartbreak when the computer virus inadvertently kills Booster Gold in order to protect its host. The Blue Beetle. This is a story full of very difficult and trying moments.

It also has one of the darkest endings for this Dark Multiverse series to date, but it's also a fun one if you are a fan of Lobo.

OverallThis was an enjoyable read and an interesting look at what happens when an idealist like Lois Lane is suddenly given god-like powers.

As far as this tale goes. It ends on an absolute shocker where we get to see what 30 " years of suffering have done to the mind of Bruce Wayne. I am hoping that all the various stories will come together toward the end of the run, but I really look forward to seeing Batman break bad.

Mark Powers has found the voice of Harry Dresden really well in this book. So much so that I have to wonder if he was able to call Jim Butcher up for help. The art work by Diego Galindois fantastic. I especially loved his splash page of the Wolfman that attached the Martineaux family.

Writer Mark Powers continues to get the voice of the characters bang on from what I know of them from the Jim Butcher books.

The issue closes with an appropriate cliffhanger, but given what you'll witness in the pages leading up to it. You'll likely wonder how long it will take for the Government types to realise that their mission is futile.

I continue to enjoy this story and will most likely treat myself to the trade paperback when it comes out.

Mark Powers grasp of Dresden's universe and the dialogue continues to impress. The book is riddled with references to pop culture films and the Star Wars and Indiana Jones references come thick and fast. I loved that Dresden thinks of his battered VW Beetle in same was as Han Solo thinks of the Millenium Falcon.

overall. This is a solid conclusion to what has been a fun Dresden Files story. Hopefully, we'll see more Dresden work from this creative team in the future. It's been a fun ride.

Overall. While this issue was heavy on expositional information. It was done in a fun and entertaining way.

Overall. A great issue. I can't wait for issue 4 and I hope that we'll continue to get new comic book adventures for The Librarians in the months to come.

I highly recommendthis comic to all fans of the TV series and will be picking up a copy of the graphic novel when Dynamite decide to bundle it.

Cullen Bunn kicks this story off in style and gets right to the throat. The concept of monsters coming into the real world from movie screens isn't a new one. But as I always say. It is how the writer frames the story that counts and Bunn frames his story really well. I'm quite looking forward to the second issue of this.

This second issue does a great job of building on the story and characters and making readers begin to become invested in them. I'm really enjoying the various exchanges between Abigail Jenner and the social media influencer who is recording absolutely everything and pretty much stalking the old stars.

This third issue of The Midnite Show has everything set up for what could well be an epic finale in the next issue.

The artwork of the various monsters throughout the four issues has been fantastic fun and seeing a mash-up of so many monsters in one comic put me in mind of the old 1930s and 40s Universal Monster Movies. All that is missing from this story is a fictional comedy team based on Abbott and Costello.

I'm invested enough right now to give the second issue a go when it releases next month.

OverallThis is a fairly confident second issue, which advances the story and leaves us with an intriguing enough cliffhanger to entice us back for the next issue.

Vampirella Roses For The Dead is available now in all good comics stores.

OverallA solid issue, which establishes the relationship between Evily and Vampirella as the bond over a common course. We get a nice mix of humor and action as the Vampire and the Witch go on their manhunt.

Overall. This is a solid start to a new and fun adventure that will hopefully visit all of the worlds that the heroes come from.

OverallHaving never read much Vampirella. The Dark Powers is very much my introduction to her. First off. I really like how she views herself as an outsider and can easily relate due to personally being among the 20% of people on this Earth who is Neurally Divergent from the rest of society. So in that sense, I can really relate to Vampirella and her tendency to go off and do stuff her way.

OverallA promising start to what feels like a wild and crazy spy adventure. The main character is introduced to us on a burned page of a novel before we see him in the comic and the story is pure science fiction pulp from start to cliffhanger. I am curious and probably inclined to hit subscribe on this one.

Matt Kindt delivers a really solid second issue, which links things up with events in the first issue as the last few pages see John meet up with Agent Chord. I loved the cheeky references to 'Die Hard' with some of the dialogue and am really loving the over the top nature of the spy story. The inhalers that Shaw gets put me in mind of the Superdrug that was depicted in 'Limitless'. I really want to see this made into a TV show or a movie. It is that much fun.

Overall. A great introduction for Dr. Queen. I look forward to the issue where Chord, Queen, and Shaw start to work together, which hopefully will be coming up in the October issue.

A fun issue, which really appealed to the Agatha Christie fan within me.

Move along James Bond. I would like me some more Bang!

This is a fun read, but when compared to Dynamites very first issue of Barbarella, which I covered months ago. This is a much cleaner story in that it has been toned down, which is not a bad thing given that its a holiday special, which means it needs to be a bit more inclusive.

All that said. I really enjoyed this opening issue and I'm fully on board to find out what happens as Terry goes deeper into Under Gotham to investigate the missing kids.

OverallA really fun issue that does a great job of moving the story forward and ends with a big reveal about who the tomb belongs too.

As a child of the 70's and 80's I'm loving this and I'm definitelysigned up for the whole story. This to me is the Battlestar Galacticaof my youth and not the gritty and nihilistic take on the series, which was so popular in the early 2000's. You can get your copy of this first issue for Free from Comixology and elsewhere. It's definitelyworth a look if you feel nostalgic for the more family-friendlyversion of Battlestar Galactica.

Overall. This new comic book run feels very much like it could well have been an original episode from the Classic Battlestar Galactica series. I want more of the same, please. Bring on issue 3.

This issue will hit comic book stores on Wednesday, December 12. If you're a Classic Galactica fan. This is a must-read.

I am continuing to enjoy this series and hope Dynamite plan to make this an ongoing series because this Classic Battlestar Galactica fan would be very happy if they do.

I really enjoyed the relationship that Adama builds with the Comitat, which builds up to a really dramatic closing page. I look forward to issue 5 whenever it drops. Hopefully, the wait will not be too long.

Overall. A pretty good second issue that makes the reader feel pretty much exactly what all the characters are feeling insofar as not being completely in the know about what is going on. I look forward to the third issue in hopes that some clues will be revealed.

Hopefully, the fourth issue will have a little more action happening and perhaps a little more from Bettie Page herself. Because she has been pretty quiet thus far.

Overall. The best issue to date, which feels like it is building up towards some big reveal in next month's installment.

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.

So I'd say this is accessible to you if it has been a while since you have read anything from the Millarverse.

I'm really looking forward to seeing where this goes in the next issue.

This book, which includes all the heroes and villains that Mark Millar has created continues to weave a fun story. However, seeing so many heroes seen off is starting to make me wonder when we are going to see one of the surviving heroes get a victory. I think they're about due.

OverallMark Millar sets things up for a really big finale issue as we see Morax's forces come through a time portal on the last page. I look forward to seeing how Wesley Gibson and Nemesis fare when up against Morax and his forces. And given that Morax has a Wizard in his employ. It will mean that Cordelia and the Magic Order will no longer be breaking any rules by entering the fray. Bring on issue 5.

Overall. This has been an enjoyable series and I look forward to whatever other crossover events that Millar comes up with.

A great read and who is to say that a movie series about Amara Creed could not be a thing in the future? I certainly would not bet against it.

In fact I have been having fun reading the individual comics for Luke Cage and Iron Fist and will likely have my review of issue 4 of Iron Fist go live in the next couple of days.

I look forward to seeing how all this will play out in the third issue when it is released next month.

Overall this was a fantastic third issue with some brilliant character beats and some wonderfully drawn art work byDavid Marquez

The art work by David Marquez is a veritable feast for the eyes. I loved the sense of motion he brought to the fight between our two heres and Diamond Back.

With Frank Castle injured and in the wind and Diamondback planning his next move. I look forward to seeing where all this will lead in issue 7 when it released next month.

David Marquez does some great art on this issue. I'm continuing to love how he lays out the action beats in this comic. There's a very street level viciousnessto how he draws the fights.

This is a wonderful little story, which will have you wondering what the writer and artist will do with the Eleventh and Twelve incarnations of Doctor Who. We also get a little glimpse of some of the artwork we will see in the Thirteenth Doctor Adventures when they start.

I really enjoyed this issue. The stories were not the best, but certainly weren't the worst you'd read either. Afterall you can only do so much for a one-shot, and this pretty much shows off what can be done, but you really do find yourself wanting more.

Overall. I really enjoyed this first issue. It feels very much like Cartmel and Aaronovitch have never really stopped writing the seventh Doctor and Ace because of the dialogue and friendlybanter that was Ace and The Doctor is very much there.

All that said. Given how this issue ended. I am definitely on board to follow the story arc through because I really want to see how Betsy Braddock handles her new role as England's protector.

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.

OverallTim Howard's story moves forward at a nice pace and it will be interesting to learn if Betsy and the team will be able to save Brian and Rogue from their respective fates. I'm looking forward to seeing how Pete Wisdom and MI-13's involvement will help or hinder them in the next issue.

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.

Overall. This was a pretty enjoyable issue. Although I will admit to having had a little trouble following at times due to the fact that my head is still a little foggy with a cold and so forth.

Overall. A fun read and a book that I will continue to follow.

There's enough here for me to invest in future issues.

This issue seems to wrap up the hunting part of the story arc, but I get the feeling there's more to come and look forwards to finding out whether or not Cullen Bloodstone will seek revenge on Betsy and her team. Especially given that he was in contact with eth Akkabba Coven. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

I'm also beginning to wonder why we have a few X-Men trusting the judgment of Apocalypse in all of this and hope we get some answers to that soon as well. Especially given my limited knowledge of their history.

Overall. A solid issue that begins to stitch together various plot points from earlier issues. I look forward to seeing how things progress next month. Especially given how things ended in this issue.

I look forward to seeing how all of this will play out in the next issue and finding out how Betsy's chat with Saturnyne will turn out.

I loved the sequence where Saturnyne was explaining to Betsy how much Brian Braddock was an ally to her and her people and seeing all the other Captain Britains was also a bit of a thrill. I still find myself a little unsure in regards to the sides in this book given that nothing seems to be straightforward or very black and white, but I guess that is why am enjoying the story.

OverallThis was a fun issue of Excalibur, which used politics and intrigue really well as Saturnine tried to play the Braddocks off against each other in order to try and get Brian to be the main protector of the Citadel and thus guard the various gateways into other universes. 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. A really fun issue.

A really fun issue. That leaves us with more questions than answers.

The moments in the Citadel with Saturnyne and Shogo are juxtaposed brilliantly with the chaos of what is happening as the Mutant army and its lowering numbers continue to battle the Arakki forces.

I look forward to seeing how all of this pans out in the next issue.

Overall. A really fun issue with some great story twists. Which are made more interesting with the addition of Pete Wisdom.

I've really been enjoying how Richtor's character has developed and I love the idea of introducing more magic into the story as well as figuring out the rules of that magic as well as its costs.

We also get some brilliant panels of Psylocke as she visits Otherworld in order to track down Betsy. The images of her meditating and conversing with Betsy while she is in the well looked really awesome and when you see those images you can easily see it envisaged in a movie. Hopefully someday Disney will get to Captain Britain and the mythology that surrounds the character.

Overall. I really enjoyed THE PHANTOM MENACE! I particularly enjoyed how we got to see a part of Malice's origin story to sort of help make sense of why Betsy and Psylocke are so keen to try and help her.

A great issue, which looks to be bringing things full circle.

Overall. A great issue with some brilliant stuff being set up for future issues.

Overall. This is a really fun issue that offered up a few laughs as well as some nice action beats.

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.

The final few pages are breathtaking and leave us with a fantastic cliffhanger. But as we get reminded of in the issue. Betsy Braddock always comes back.

Overall. Otherworld is a pretty good way for this book to end. Or maybe begin something new. As it is kind of left open.

OverallThis is a pretty good first issue, but it seems a bit off somehow sidelining the other Guardians in exchange for another group of characters led by Nova Centurian, who doesn't really have the level of charisma or humor. I loved the banter between Rocket and Quill, but just having them minus the other Guardians isn't really working for me. Hopefully, Gamora and the others will be brought in later.

A fun read, but I'd really like to see Gamora brought into the story, which I think could well happen in next month's issue. Given how this one ended.

OverallA really solid issue that has some of the key characters doing some proper soul searching before getting ready to go out. Great twist at the end of the story, which concerns Rocket Racoon who could be in real danger given what Gamora's current mood is like.

Overall. Kind of an expositional issue to set out the new order of things.

Thankfully the end of the book sees the two Guardian teams end their rivalry, but I can't see the way back being an easy one for them.

A really enjoyable character-based story, which explores grief and the taking of responsibility for one's actions or inactions and how grief and feelings of guilt can often come into conflict and create an emotional pot noodle of a mess. It will be interesting to see how Nova resolves off of this baggage as the story moves forward.

Overall. A promising start to what is likely going to be more of a mystery story. Hopefully, we get a little more action in the next issue.

A solid issue with a lot of big reveals in regards to the overall plot.

Overall. A really fun issue, which ends with a nice little reunion and one hell of a cliffhanger to keep us in suspense until 2021.

Overall. A fantastic issue with a brilliantly executed reintroduction of Starlord into the team.

Overall. This issue is full of brilliant foreshadowing for part two of Starlord and Nova's epic battle against Zeus. That said. This time the Gods will have to deal with a very pissed-off Gamora. Which is a fate that I'd not wish on my worst enemy.

Overall. A brilliantly fun story and the end of an era for one incarnation of Guardians of The Galaxy and a brilliant introduction to what will likely come next.

I also loved the addition of magic to the science aspects of the story. In particular, Starlord using it to help Groot out. Overall. A fantastic start and some really nice setup for a new story arc. The cliffhanger is magic.

OverallThis story arc is proving to be a rather good Guardians of the Galaxy story. And as someone that is still quite new to reading their comic book adventures. I can't wait to see how they will fair against Ego. Who we last got to see in the second of the movies.

Overall. This is developing nicely. I look forward to the next issue.

Overall. A really strong issue with solid dialogue and character development. The story moves on a fair bit and we even get a few nice references to other books in the Marvel universe.

Overall. This has been a really fun ride. And having Dr. Doom and the whole science versus magic aspect in the story. Truly made things interesting.

I'm looking forward to getting more of this series as it comes out and can't wait to see what the writing team of Vita Ayala and Danny Lore will come up with next.

OverallVita Ayala and Danny Lore have delivered an issue here which is basically about Bond and Keyes getting used to working together, which kind of made it feel like they were treading water a little bit. That said we are given an incentive to come back next month as we are left with a pretty good cliffhanger.

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.

Overall. A new story, which kind of feels like a continuation of the last story arc in some ways. But I will keep with it to see where it goes.

With the reveal of the big bad. I can't wait to see how this all pans out in next month's issue because this story is really starting to heat up. Bond better hope that there are not any swamps nearby if he is going by past experiences.

Issue 6 of ‘James Bond' will hit comic book stores this Wednesday.

OverallThis is a very strong start for James Bond Origins and I look forward to seeing where the story goes in the next issue.

Why no one has ever tried to adapt something like this to a television series or a series of films is beyond me. I'd love to see something like this.

OverallA fantastic issue, which provides a cliff edge situation that will really test James Bond's metal, but also a really exciting read for fans of 007.

It's just sad that we'll have to wait a whole month to see what happens next.

A great issue, which transitions fairly smoothly into bonds next mission, which will see him going to Belgium.

OverallThis is a great issue, which shows James Bond at a very early stage in his spying career and highlights just how cold and precise the future version of Bond is to this more gullible and somewhat devil may care version is.

I look forward to seeing what the next issue will have to offer and seeing how Bond will execute his escape from the Russian boat.

I loved the couple of pages where Bond is going over his personal checklist of what he should do and what he should be prepared for. We get the sense that he is strategizing and trying to brace himself for all possible outcomes.

Overall, though this has concluded what has been another enjoyable adventure for the younger James Bond. I'm actually surprised that a TV series or movie series of Bonds earlier adventures have not been attempted. Which is why I take such great pleasure in reading this particular Dynamite series.

Having Bond call on Eddie for help made for an interesting twist and could make for interesting reading as things develop given the history that these two characters share.

Overall. A really fun issue with lots of intrigue and some interesting possibilities for next months final issue of this story arc.

Overall. A wonderful story arc, which I can see myself revisiting at some stage in the future.

Overall I enjoyed this, but at 5.99 for digital purchase on Comixology. I think the price is a tad steep. But I will most likely try and pick up a physical copy at some stage because it would work well as an alternative advent calendar.

Morrison's use of the commercialization of Christmas to tell this story is done in a fun way without being too in your face. The artwork throughout is top notch. Especially when we see so many zombie Santa'son the page. East slightly different than the others.

The StoryVery little time is wasted here as we get thrown right into the story. Indeed, this opening issue picks up with Lady Baltimore fighting against the evil Witch Yelena. We soon learn that Sofia is on a rescue mission and is out to help Rigo and members of the Orphic Society get out of hostile territory. Just when it seems that the game is up. 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.

OverallThis was a really strong second issue. The writing was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the discussion between Lady Baltimore and Rigo about the merits and the pitfalls of torture. I also enjoyed the sequence where Charlie Kidd gets a bit too close to Yelena and nearly pays dearly for it.

OverallChristopher Golden and Mike Mignola continue to spin a brilliant story with this adventure. I'm really excited to see how this story will evolve over the next few issues. The two writers have managed to give us some likable characters and some truly awesome villains. I mean how can you not love a good old-fashioned pulp story that gives us Nazi Witches. More of the same, please.

Lady Baltimore: The Witch Queens continues to be a monthly event for me. I love pulp storytelling and also enjoy anything to do with the occult within any given fictional narrative. The plot twist involving Rigo and his betrayal is brilliantly executed as was the backstory for Einer the Warlock. With the Hexencorps pretty much invading most of Europe. We get left with a brilliant cliffhanger for this penultimate issue of what has been one of the most fun comic books of this year.

I also loved the fact that the Golem is referred to by name and fast becomes a character in his own right. Indeed, it would have been oh so easy for the writers to just have him as a witch killing machine.

A solid start, which has me on the edge of my seat for the next issue.

This issue will hit comic book stores and Comixology on Wednesday 8 July.

Overall. A solid issue that keeps the mystery train running while also managing to give us a nice balance of character development and fun moments.

Overall. A really solid issue, which puts things in place for next month's finale, which I'm sure will prove to be a very satisfying end to what has been a pretty cool mystery.

Overall. This has been a great series with a satisfying mystery that has had enough twists and turns to keep us guessing all the way through. It really kept you guessing and the revelation of the real killer was a total surprise.

Also fun is how Monty starts off with not a great deal of belief in Vanessa and thinks he can get away with doing what he wants.

I look forward to the next issue, which I hope will give us a bit more of a story arc as opposed to the one-shot style we have seen thus far.

Overall. A fantastic issue, which successfully builds on character development and a new storyline.

I'm really enjoying how Monty is kind of acting as a mentor figure for Vanessa.

Overall. A great issue with a cliffhanger that will keep readers on the edge of their seats for an entire month.

A really strong issue that delivers, drama, gore and fun one-liners in equal measure.

I suspect this is supposed to be some kind of spell casting prior to the race. But it was pretty cool nonetheless to see such a fun reference.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this story plays out over the next few issues.

The writers also managed to give us a brilliant cliffhanger ending that is going to keep us perched on the edge of our seats for the whole month.

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. We get a nice homage paid to the Deep Space Nine TV show as we see Jake Sisko recall the adventure he had with his dad when they navigated space in a Bajorian Sail Barge. 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.

OverallThis was a solid issue that features some great new Star Trek moments for us to enjoy. I particularly liked seeing Gul Dukat make a return. Even in his Pah Wraith Spirit form. The issue also ends on a brilliant cliffhanger.

This issue wraps up the trial of Benjamin Sisko rather too quickly for my taste as I felt it was all a little too rushed. However, the mission brief of this issue was obviously to get the story arc concluded in order to start the ongoing Star Trek comic to link up with the DAY OF BLOOD storyline that has just begun in Star Trek: Defiant. This mission is absolutely accomplished with some thrilling final pages.

This is a great issue that builds nicely on all of the character arcs that have been developing throughout all of the books that are involved in the crossover.

Collin Kelly does a solid job of finishing this story but leaves a few plot threads hanging to get picked up in future issues. I loved how the issue ended with Lore looking to take advantage of the power vacuum that Kahless had left behind. But I also loved the clever way in which the writer uses Sela and makes her a relevant character again.

This is a fun issue that gives us our first look at the Tzenkethi who were often mentioned on the series, but never really seen.

To sum up. I'm really enjoying this story so far and look forward to seeing how it evolves over the next few months.

I also loved the interplay between Dr. Crusher and Scotty and how Scotty writes about it in his log.

A really strong issue that adds a little more jeopardy to the storyline, but also allows for some character growth for Ensign Sato, who is the Andorian Great Grand Daughter of Enterprise NX-01's Hoshi Sato.

A great story arc that's truly testing Captain Sisko's abilities as one of Starfleet's most capable officers.

Overall this story has been one of those stories that reminds you why you love Star Trek so much. The conflict between the Tzenkethi and Sisko's orders and the eventual resolution of conflict and how it is achieved is very Star Trek.

OverallStar Trek: Day of BloodShaxs' Best Day is one hell of a good time. The jokes are thick and fast and it's rather fun seeing what a good day looks like for the legendary Lt Junior Grade Shax. I look forward to any sequels. If there is one.

This book looks like it could be the start of an epic story.

Holo-Ween gets off to a really strong start with a story that immediately grips you and has you wondering what is going to happen from one page to the next. Christopher Sequeira's idea to resurrect Redjac as the villain for this book is a good one as he is an enemy that can be horrific and fun in equal measure and his ties to Jack the Ripper only add to the fun.

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in next week's penultimate issue.

We get a great twist at the close of this issue, which brings in another great villain from Star Trek who much like Redjac feeds on the fears or others. A very familiar alien to the Next Generation fans as he appeared in one of the better episodes from the first season.

This book has been a real Halloween treat and has made what has been a rather stressful October for me go by a little quicker.

Both writers do a great job of capturing the voices of the characters and the dialogue that we hear Picard say is very much in keeping with things that the character has said in the past. Especially when it comes to respecting all sentient lifeforms.

Kirsten Beyer and Mike Johnson have me hooked. I can't wait to read the next issue but do have one wish and that is for Picard to mention the Prime Directive at least once.

Overall. This is a pretty good prequel story. It at least tells the backstory of Zhaban and Laris and how they came to be living with Picard, but we are still in the dark as to whether or not Geordie LaForge survives the Mars attack. Hopefully, we will see the backstory to the synthetic attack of mars played out in another mini-series or novel because that for me as a life long Star Trek fan is as intriguing as the backstory was to Khan and the Eugenics Wars were.

Having a little experience with Parallel Universes. Kirk convinces an admiral that only he and the Enterprise crew can resolve this problem. However, things take on a complicated turn when The Enterprise chases Akris's ship into The Neutral Zone.

It will be great to see the alternate universe that General Uhura and Akris come from in a future issue. But given that the run is only for five issues. I'm not sure if Guggenheim will have enough room to cover that. But if this were to become an ongoing Star Trek series that takes place between STMP and Wrath of Khan. Am pretty sure that Guggenheim and some other writers and artists could get plenty of mileage out of that.

This was a strong issue with some great character moments.

This penultimate issue does a solid job of setting things up for the dramatic finale, which we'll get to read about next month. The banter between Spock and McCoy is bang on point and as fun to read as it was to watch on the show back in the day. It is obvious that Marc Guggenheim has watched a lot of hours of the original series to be able to portray the Spock and McCoy dynamic so well.

OverallStar Trek: The Motion PictureEchoes has been a fun Star Trek Adventure that I truly enjoyed. I loved seeing a story involving the Crew just after Star Trek: The Motion Picture and I loved that they used the Romulans and parallel universe versions of two of Kirk's famous crew. The alternative version of Uhura was particularly well written and I enjoyed her warning to Kirk in the final few pages of the issue because it works as good foreshadowing for the events we saw in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

This was a fun story, which I'd love to see expanded given how it ended.

My guess is the third issue will seeSergeant Kreel and his Elite Squad of Stormtroopers dispatched to mess with the rebels. I look forward to seeing the potential stand off.

Great issue. Can't wait to read the next one. I kind of want it now.

This issue is an epic battle from pretty much start to finish and we get some great art work from Jorge Molina depicting Lukes battle with Kreel.

Hopefully this story picks up a little more next issue because this opening chapter was really hit and miss with me.

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.

OverallTom King is giving us the beginnings of what could well be an epic story here. If this first chapter is anything to go by. We could wind up seeing a story that examines the nature of truth. The comic also looks like it is looking to examine the traditional true blue heroes like Adam Strange, who is similar to Flash Gordon in that he espouses very traditional values and has a bit of a black and white view of right and wrong, a lense, which suspect is going to get smashed as we see shades of grey coming through. I'm really enjoying the fact that the media is turning on Adam Strange in this first issue.

Overall. Not a bad issue. But a bit more action would have been nice.

It would be fantastic to see something happen with regard to pacing in the next issue, but if its anything like this issue. I'm probably going to drop this book from my list. At the moment this feels like more of an art book, which is great. But a few more reveals in regards to where the story is actually going would be great.

Hopefully, we'll get a few more answers in the next issue as to what really happened during this war. Was Adam Strange manipulated by Rann's government or was he a willing participant in the war?

OverallAnother strong issue, which uncovers more of the political machinations that are happening in the background. You find yourself not entirely sure who is in the right. Adam Strange and his wife or The Justice League? Is the Pykkt invasion of Earth being entirely manufactured or is it a very real danger?

OverallThis was a pretty good issue overall. I liked the whole conversation between Mr. Terriffic and Allanna and how that was all juxtaposed with the flashback sequences. If there is one small criticism it would be that six issues in and we are still waiting for something big to happen on the Earth. You know like the Pykkt invasion that the writer is teasing us with.

This is a brilliant setup for the next issue, which promises to have tons of action.

Additionally, the sequence in Phoenix where The Flash goes looking for survivors is well handled. And gives us an idea of how aggressive and how hard the Pykkts are prepared to fight. It also has you wondering if Batman and the Justice League have perhaps bitten off more than they can chew.

This issue pretty much sees the fallout from Batman's investigation into Adam Strange and it with brilliant how writer Tom King handles the talking heads on the news. The whole comic is pretty much a clever comment on public opinion and how it can be manipulated by the media. Alanna's speech on the news shows that she appears on felt rather Trumpian in its approach to acknowledging that there was truth in the allegations made toward Adam Strange. Indeed, she absolutely goes all out in selling Adam Strange's actions as those of a war hero. Rhetorically asking the audience if they want someone that will win by punishing the enemy. Or if they want the JLA who will fight by the rules. It's a reminder that war is not civilized.

The StoryEarth is losing the war against the Pykkts. But, no one understands why. Especially given that Adam Strange and his soldiers had defeated the Pykkts on Rann. When Allanna Strange receives a mysterious letter. We finally get to grips with the shocking truth of the matter. Adam Strange lied about his heroics. A deal was struck and Earth was the prize. But there was so much more to it than that. After all. War is hell.

This penultimate issue ends on a somewhat unexpected note and sets a lot up for the final issue that will be out next month.

Tom King concludes his story brilliantly by sort of bringing things full circle by ending the book with the same image that started it all 12 issues ago. A flashback of Adam Strange signing his book. It's a bittersweet ending to a book that has deconstructed a hero and shown that not everything is black and white.

The Raid #1 is out now on both print and digital and is published by Titan Comics.

I found this to be a really enjoyable book with some solid art, which while solid and good. Wasn't really my cup of tea. However, the story and dialogue more than made up for my indifference to the art style.

Overall a solid second issue that sets a few things up for the third and final issue, which will hit next month.

Pornsak Pichetshote's storytelling continues to be lots of fun. I loved the mythology he has added to this series about the difference between Western Ghosts and Thai Ghosts. Which proves to be somewhat of an important factor in this story.

Not a bad opening issue, but also not the greatest either as it kind of relies on readers already having some familiarity with The Sandman Universe. So not a great jumping-on point. The story throws you straight in by introducing us to Madison first. She is pretty much your typical young woman that is still dealing with a certain amount of PTSD from having been bullied mercilessly as a kid in school. She is very much a character that most readers will instantly relate to.

Overall. A really strong second issue, with a killer cliffhanger.

Overall. A strong start, which takes Steve Austin in a slightly different direction than we have seen in previous comics and indeed the TV series itself.

Overall. A solid second issue. Which ends with a fun and very dangerous twist.

It was an okay issue. But I am hoping for more next month.

Overall. A solid issue, which has an exciting cliffhanger that will keep us all hanging for an entire month.

A pretty solid story with lots of bionic breakdowns along the way, which is something we never saw a great deal of in the TV series other than on rare occasions where extreme cold clogged up Steve's Bionics.
