Reading an issue of Batman: Reptilian has almost become an endurance test in the worst possible way.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're looking for a new Sonja series to dive into, this isn't the one.
View Issue       View Full Review

Maybe it's the unbelievably clunky dialogue and half-hearted attempt at a quasi-found family story, or the cheesecake, male-gazey art style, or the notion of an all-male creative team working on what is meant to be a book about women finding empowerment, but there's just very, very little that's worth celebrating in The Girls of Dimension 13.
View Issue       View Full Review

Despite being the penultimate installment, it feels like The Girls of Dimension 13 still has barely gotten anywhere worthwhile.
View Issue       View Full Review

There is a nugget of a compelling, complex Batman tale in the center of this story, but it feels way too bogged down by both its brutality and its utter banality.
View Issue       View Full Review

On every level, Batman: Reptilian has proved to be an exercise in frustration, and if anything, it's made me want to go back and read Batman comics that are much more compelling.
View Issue       View Full Review

This far in, I'm still not entirely sure what the selling point is for Dark Tempest, and that's a problem.
View Issue       View Full Review

"Another twisty deflection? More word salad? Stop it." These words are said early on in Dark Tempest #4, and they do a surprisingly-good job of encapsulating how I feel about the book itself.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are a very small amount of bright spots in this issue, but it is by and large one of the most disappointing final issues I've read in recent memory.
View Issue       View Full Review

Kneel Before Zod remains a peculiar comic book it does sufficiently honor the energy of its titular protagonist, but ultimately crafts a nihilistic and clunky world around him.
View Issue       View Full Review

If anything, this issue just feels like storyboards for a hypothetical live-action adaptation starring Leguizamo"but maybe it'll eventually have some value beyond that.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're not already following the journey of Phenom X, you're not missing a whole lot.
View Issue       View Full Review

While there's a chance Red Sonja: Empire of the Damned could ultimately wow me, this debut issue doesn't provide much confidence.
View Issue       View Full Review

There's definitely more to like in the sophomore issue of The Girls of Dimension 13 than there was in the first"but not by much.
View Issue       View Full Review

Fans of the series -- especially younger ones -- might enjoy this, but there's definitely better standalone issues.
View Issue       View Full Review

The plot is just a little too thin here, but there's still something unique to behold.
View Issue       View Full Review

There is a small nugget of morbid curiosity that will make me see Batman: Reptilian through to the end, but I'm not being drawn in by much else beyond that.
View Issue       View Full Review

It's clear that Vixens is still figuring out what it is as a series, but hopefully the ride will be worth it.
View Issue       View Full Review

The Bombshells' latest mystery brings the group to some pretty dark places, but it doesn't quite pack a punch.
View Issue       View Full Review

Overall, I am so thankful that this series is now over.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are moments where the dialogue is cheesy and campy, and others where it borders on absolutely cringeworthy (there has yet to be a sincere use of the term "boomer" in comics). But there are enough Easter eggs and ridiculous plot points to make this issue reasonably entertaining, and Cian Tormey's art is largely well-executed.
View Issue       View Full Review

The idea of starting an event series in an entirely new universe is undoubtedly compelling, and the issue does just enough to keep readers wanting more, but it still remains to be seen if Commanders in Crisis will succeed at its lofty ambitions.
View Issue       View Full Review

This certainly is a one-of-a-kind DC/Hanna-Barbera team-up, but it's unclear if that is a good thing.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you like your Deadpool stories with way more butt-kicking than jokes and quips, then this is the series for you.
View Issue       View Full Review

This entire series is absolutely still worth checking out, it's just a bit of a bummer how this third act ultimately comes together.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're a diehard fan of the character, this might be a positive debut, but it's unclear if it will draw in new readers.
View Issue       View Full Review

Disaster Inc is still clearly finding its footing, and it remains to be seen if it will be a series that is worth fans' time.
View Issue       View Full Review

There's a chance that Disaster Inc. might eventually find its footing and end up being a relevant, horrific comic"but it's still too early to tell if that will actually happen.
View Issue       View Full Review

At the end of the day, this issue mainly feels like a lot of pomp and circumstance more than anything else.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're seeking a worthwhile standalone volume surrounding Marvel's First Family, you might be better off looking elsewhere.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are a handful of great sequences, and the designs for a lot of the robots are great, but Iron Man 2020 still leaves a lot to be desired.
View Issue       View Full Review

I don't necessarily regret reading Kneel Before Zod, but it was definitely an unremarkable experience.
View Issue       View Full Review

At a certain point, as the dick jokes keep flying amid grotesque twists and turns, Gideon Kendall's wildly cartoony aesthetic can't even save the narrative flow.
View Issue       View Full Review

While this miniseries had the potential to be charming, the actual execution of it has consistently remained baffling and off-putting.
View Issue       View Full Review

In many ways, Metal Men feels like a lost relic of the mid-2000s, which creates an interesting, but frustrating, dichotomy.
View Issue       View Full Review

Thus far, this maxi-series is playing out like a comic from ten years ago, and it's unclear if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some interesting nuggets here that stretch back through decades of Metal Men lore, and make it abundantly clear that the creative team care about bringing these characters to life, it's just unclear if they can make a majority of readers care.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue has some adorable moments, but they're occasionally overpowered by dialogue that's just a bit too wordy.
View Issue       View Full Review

A large part of the story is essentially devoted to some pretty wordy planning and discussing, something that readers are either going to enjoy or be bored by.
View Issue       View Full Review

The comic overall is relatively solid, it's just unclear exactly what the point of this creepy tale really is.
View Issue       View Full Review

The art and dialogue of Over the Garden Wall: Soulful Symphonies both continue to work within the context of things, but the narrative as a whole feels like it's treading water.
View Issue       View Full Review

Fans of the series might find bits to enjoy, but this issue definitely isn't for everybody.
View Issue       View Full Review

There's a morsel of genuine heart within Phenom X, but it's almost unrecognizable when buried under layers of corniness and a generic style.
View Issue       View Full Review

Both the narrative and the visuals are okay, but nothing groundbreaking, and it ultimately remains to be seen if Red Atlantis will be an effective political allegory or an ill-timed one.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're a fan of anyone in this roster of characters (including a few unexpected faces), this issue is probably worth checking out, but everyone else might just think it's underwhelming.
View Issue       View Full Review

Fans will surely enjoy seeing the original Outlaws return, but there's little else that makes this worthwhile otherwise.
View Issue       View Full Review

Nine issues in, this relaunch isn't even scratching the surface of Sonja's potential.
View Issue       View Full Review

Another intriguing cliffhanger ending can't save this Red Sonja installment from feeling rather stale.
View Issue       View Full Review

The end result arguably make the story a little too cluttered, with a story that increasingly changes focus and direction.
View Issue       View Full Review

The plot bounces back and forth at an almost jarring pace, introducing concepts or storylines that feel a little too dark for the bright and sunny setting of the issue.
View Issue       View Full Review

But all in all, the end result is at least fairly entertaining, and has enough whimsy to make fans not feel disappointed.
View Issue       View Full Review

While I still admire the concept of Speed Force, I am ultimately a little underwhelmed by its execution.
View Issue       View Full Review

It's unclear at this point who this miniseries is for, or if it will be a worthwhile read by the time things are done.
View Issue       View Full Review

Immortal Men always feels like it's on the cusp of something amazing, and the events of this issue could either elevate things to that point, or just muddy the waters even more.
View Issue       View Full Review

The penultimate issue of this series is definitely building to something, but the impact of it all still feels hollow.
View Issue       View Full Review

The concept and the execution of some of these characters definitely does have potential within the DC universe, and this final issue might be what they needed for that to happen.
View Issue       View Full Review

The first issue of The Last Siege might not wow you quite yet, but it shows more than enough promise.
View Issue       View Full Review

It's still admirable what this series is trying to do for the overall Transformers canon, but the execution will leave some genuinely befuddled.
View Issue       View Full Review

This won't do anything substantial to court new fans of the comic franchise, but it will get the job done for returning readers.
View Issue       View Full Review

The art from Beth McGuire-Smith and colors from Priscilla Tramontano do just enough to stop the issue from completely falling flat, but Escape really just reads as cluttered and underwhelming.
View Issue       View Full Review

Despite its capable and entertaining creative team, Vampirella vs. Red Sonja #1 is too exhausting to be worth the while.
View Issue       View Full Review

This "War of the Realms" miniseries comes to a close in a way that doesn't feel as satisfying as it could be.
View Issue       View Full Review

This does succeed at being an epilogue of sorts to both Steve Orlando and G. Willow Wilson's Wonder Woman canon, but it's far from the best issue of Wonder Woman you can pick up right now.
View Issue       View Full Review

Batman Incorporated is just a little bit smoother than the issue that preceded it but it still crafts a tale that's too disjointed for its own good.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some elements of Dark Tempest that are proving to be delightful, but a lot of the ordeal comes across as unfortunately clunky.
View Issue       View Full Review

Even if vampires are a cultural harbinger of our times, there is an even better version of DC vs. Vampires percolating under the surface, and it remains to be seen if World War V will become a showcase for it.
View Issue       View Full Review

After an ambitious debut issue, Deep Beyond continues to establish itself in a way that is visually interesting, but a little narratively flat.
View Issue       View Full Review

Based on the concept for an eventual video game, Destiny Gate delivers enough spooky vibes to make up for the flaws and tropes of its premise.
View Issue       View Full Review

While there are a few bright spots in this issue, I'm mainly left feeling like this issue wasted its own potential.
View Issue       View Full Review

This time around, the conflict of Icon vs. Hardware slingshots from one extreme to another, and the end result is both entertaining and underwhelming.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some fleeting enjoyable moments in this issue, but a little too much gets thrown to the wayside.
View Issue       View Full Review

While Kneel Before Zod still has a lot of potential, this issue definitely squanders it a little bit.
View Issue       View Full Review

While I'm definitely curious to see what the future holds for Kneel Before Zod, this issue ultimately makes the series much rockier than it could be.
View Issue       View Full Review

The final issue of Lester of the Lesser Gods culminates in a goofy, but unpleasant manner.
View Issue       View Full Review

Best efforts are on display from writer-artist Travis Moore, but the deluge of plot twists might baffle even the most die-hard Nightwing readers.
View Issue       View Full Review

This first issue is a lot like its titular protagonist definitely with potential, but overwhelmed by gimmicks that just aren't clever enough.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some nuggets that could be compelling or thoroughly entertaining for this series, but the entire six issues just feel like an interlude for better stories on the horizon.
View Issue       View Full Review

In the end, Red Atlantis doesn't reinvent the wheel or blaze a new trail nearly enough when it comes to its espionage-tinged story, but it still had a lot of nuggets of promise.
View Issue       View Full Review

Although I'm still excited to see what the future of Red Sonja holds, this issue does make me a bit hesitant about how it will be presented.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some moments of pulpy majesty, either from Gronbekk's wide-ranging script or from Walter Geovani's whimsical art. But the massive battle on the series' horizon is only growing needlessly complicated, as more elements and players continue to be teased in unsatisfying ways.
View Issue       View Full Review

There's just enough here, aesthetically and narratively, to make me curious to continue reading, but this issue still doesn't pack nearly enough of a punch yet.
View Issue       View Full Review

While not a total wash, I hope this series doesn't take too long to realize its full potential.
View Issue       View Full Review

While this issue zapped a little bit of the life that Savage Red Sonja has had, hopefully the series' future will deliver more meaningfully.
View Issue       View Full Review

I'm still looking forward to seeing how Speed Force ties everything together, but this issue indicates that the end result might be looser than some would like.
View Issue       View Full Review

Spider-Society has potential, but at this point, it's leaving a little too much to be desired.
View Issue       View Full Review

While Saladin Ahmed's script works well in that first category, the latter two elements fall into tropes that aren't as compelling as they could be.
View Issue       View Full Review

It absolutely continues to have its flaws, but there's an element of The Girls of Dimension 13 that is beginning to grow on me.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're a diehard fan of the franchise who is looking for any kind of new storytelling, you might find something to enjoy here. But otherwise, outside of the visuals, a lot of the issue just isn't gripping enough to keep your attention.
View Issue       View Full Review

The penultimate installment of this Transformers saga, Transformers: Escape # 4 finds enough ways to be captivating for diehard fans, but it feels a little scattered otherwise.
View Issue       View Full Review

While there are some clever creative choices and compelling possibilities, it doesn't quite make the impact that it potentially could.
View Issue       View Full Review

It's not necessarily essential reading for Ms. Marvel fans, but it largely works as a self-contained tale, and it still has some genuinely good moments.
View Issue       View Full Review

Readers both young and old will hopefully be inspired, both to color in certain pages of the issue and to look at their own big ideas too.
View Issue       View Full Review

The issue opens with "Forever (Not) Alone", a quiet story that is just charming enough in design and in plot to make readers -- especially Marceline and Bubblegum shippers -- happy.
View Issue       View Full Review

In true Adventure Time fashion, this issue skirts the line between charming, juvenile, and utterly ridiculous.
View Issue       View Full Review

The newest comic continuation of the Adventure Time world weaves a surprisingly interesting narrative.
View Issue       View Full Review

The visuals are just as colorful as ever, and there are some adorable moments which die-hard fans will probably enjoy a bit more than passive readers.
View Issue       View Full Review

After establishing a heck of a lot of a new mystery, this issue finally begins to provide some answers, although it takes a little while to get there.
View Issue       View Full Review

The first arc of this new series is officially drawing to a close, and it does so with enough of an impact.
View Issue       View Full Review

Fans of the series will surely love this issue, and the little ways that it honors the show's canon that came before it.
View Issue       View Full Review

Ultimately, All-America Comix #1 feels like a generic version of your favorite snack food"it's enjoyable, and it gets the job done at the moment, but you're ultimately left wanting more of the real thing.
View Issue       View Full Review

"Cold Snap" ultimately feels a bit too much like a filler issue, but it's still an enjoyable one nonetheless.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue might have a few weak moments, but it sneaks up on you, and ends up delivering a delightful father-daughter tale.
View Issue       View Full Review

But overall, Larson weaves a story that has enough energy and life through it to satisfy readers, especially when paired with Jung's absolutely delightful art.
View Issue       View Full Review

After the beautifully-executed finale of Hope Larson's run, Batgirl continues"and mostly sticks the landing.
View Issue       View Full Review

It's unclear exactly what the future holds for both characters, but this is some pretty satisfying ground to leave them on.
View Issue       View Full Review

Barbara is given some good moments both in and out of the cowl, and there's just enough that's set up for the future.
View Issue       View Full Review

Scott has brought about some genuinely interesting and impactful things to her run on Batgirl, and this issue makes it simultaneously sad to see the current creative team go but also lays the groundwork for an interesting next chapter.
View Issue       View Full Review

Ultimately, this issue really shines in the sequences that have Barbara at the absolute center, so it will be interesting to see if that carries through to future issues.
View Issue       View Full Review

While this might not be a perfect issue, it has enough standout moments to make it worth picking up.
View Issue       View Full Review

While this isn't necessarily a standout issue for Batgirl, it definitely continues to get to the heart of who Barbara is.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue fully examines the groundwork for Batgirl's latest arc, and the end result is a bit of a mixed bag.
View Issue       View Full Review

For better or for worse, Batman Incorporated #1 is nowhere near as accessible of a comic book as it could be but there are just enough elements to save it from being an absolute wash.
View Issue       View Full Review

Overall, Batman: Reptilian # 1 is a mixed bag in every sense of the word"but one that I'm somewhat intrigued to see through to the next issue.
View Issue       View Full Review

It's fun seeing Norton and company expand the world of Battlepug even more, and it will be interesting to see where things go next.
View Issue       View Full Review

There's no telling where the Vixens will go next after this issue, but fans will be excited to come along for the ride.
View Issue       View Full Review

The series begin a new arc in this issue, and the end result is a delight.
View Issue       View Full Review

Vixens still has a heck of a lot of potential, and here's hoping it will get a chance to reach that potential.
View Issue       View Full Review

Although the plot has many enjoyable moments, this Birds of Prey one-shot still reads as what some fans had feared from the beginning"the general concept of the Birds of Prey movie filtered through a superficial, male voice.
View Issue       View Full Review

The fantasy world of Blackbird still has a lot of new things to establish, something that is both a sort of blessing and a curse.
View Issue       View Full Review

All in all, it will leave fans intrigued to see what comes next.
View Issue       View Full Review

While it might not be the flashiest or strongest outing, the issue takes an angle that fans will hopefully want to hear, and one that takes a deeper meaning, following the recent announcement of the series' conclusion.
View Issue       View Full Review

This might not be the best Bombshells entry, but it will leave fans curious to see what comes next.
View Issue       View Full Review

While the art gets a little muddy here and there, the whole issue comes together in a pretty nice way, serving up a worthy third act for the Bombshells.
View Issue       View Full Review

While the issue slightly loses the absolutely bonkers momentum that has carried it through the past few installments, it still proves to be an important issue for the series as a whole.
View Issue       View Full Review

Buckhead"both the concept and the series as a whole"feels like an intriguing mystery that's only just beginning.
View Issue       View Full Review

The penultimate issue of Buckhead swings for the fences in some admirable ways, and while not all of them necessarily land, they still prove to work in the series' favor.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you've been enjoying the ride Buckhead has taken you on thus far, you will surely enjoy this final installment.
View Issue       View Full Review

While Romero's art occasionally falters -- largely in gratuitous shots of a female character -- there's still enough for readers to enjoy.
View Issue       View Full Review

The real standout here is Jones' art, which will surely captivate the reader's attention for most of the issue, even if the narrative might not entirely land in every page.
View Issue       View Full Review

In terms of plot, things don't advance in a massive way, but there's still enough to make fans eager to read the next issue.
View Issue       View Full Review

I'm still excited to see what the future holds for this Catwoman run, but I'm not being captivated in the immediate.
View Issue       View Full Review

Selina Kyle's status quo continues to shift in this issue, an installment that has entertaining moments, but still feels bogged down by the sense that something more compelling is on the horizon.
View Issue       View Full Review

The "Gotham War" event barrels on and if you're someone who is just keeping up with the Catwoman portions of the story, the ride might not be entirely worth it.
View Issue       View Full Review

The Nine Lives arc continues to be a fascinating beast, with an increasingly clever concept getting mired by some chunky storytelling tactics.
View Issue       View Full Review

Commanders in Crisis #1 doesn't do enough to reinvent how readers see event books, but the series to follow just might.
View Issue       View Full Review

Commanders in Crisis is clearly ramping up for its third act, and it is continuing to be as ambitious as ever.
View Issue       View Full Review

Combined with Roge Antonio's art, which keeps the occasion bloody and intense without growing too macabre, this issue is a pretty solid one.
View Issue       View Full Review

Overall, I'm just curious to see exactly what's next for Conan.
View Issue       View Full Review

This second issue doesn't entirely strike the perfect balance between historical action and super creepy horror, but it certainly tries its best.
View Issue       View Full Review

This miniseries reaches its midway point in this issue, and it kind of shows.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you've been keeping up with this run, or you're looking for an excuse to catch up, this issue is a pretty solid one.
View Issue       View Full Review

Is this the strongest issue of the series thus far? No. But does it manage to be quite a lot of fun? You bet.
View Issue       View Full Review

It definitely isn't a perfect debut, but there's still enough here that's interesting"particularly the art from Andrea Broccardo and Barbara Nosenzo, which gets. just weird enough while grounding things in reality"to make this a series worth keeping an eye on.
View Issue       View Full Review

Both narratively and aesthetically, Disaster Inc. doesn't completely shatter expectations in its debut, but still establishes what could be an entertaining and engaging adventure.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue could end up being a pretty sold jumping off point for new readers, as well as a complex installment for ongoing readers.
View Issue       View Full Review

Waid clearly wants to stretch the limits of who Doctor Strange is as a character, and thankfully, there's still plenty of opportunities for that to be explored.
View Issue       View Full Review

Overall, this Earth-Prime issue doesn't seem to know if it wants to play into the expectations of Superman comics, or pay tribute to the show it's serving as an adaptation of but still, there's more than enough here to justify reading it.
View Issue       View Full Review

As an issue of the larger Earth-Prime miniseries, this Legends of Tomorrow-themed issue misses the mark, as the trio of stories feel largely unconnected from the larger crossover fight against Magog. But then again, that feels oddly on-brand for the Legends of Tomorrow, and the team have a surprising amount of ground to cover in what is (technically) their first canonical comic appearance.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're looking for an entertaining, bloody, and relatively inconsequential horror comic, then The Electric Black Presents # 1 is here for you.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you want an apocalyptic horror book that will largely play into your expectations, for better or for worse, Eve of Extinction may be right up your alley.
View Issue       View Full Review

It feels like it's on a completely different wavelength from much of the publisher's recent, trailblazing storytelling, but it still proves to be an enjoyable journey.
View Issue       View Full Review

Overall, this issue has quite a lot for fans to enjoy.
View Issue       View Full Review

The third act of Gotham City Garage's story has officially begun, and fans will hopefully be satisfied with how things ramp up.
View Issue       View Full Review

For those who have been following the series thus far, this issue feels like a good sign of what's to come.
View Issue       View Full Review

While not every joke necessarily lands, if you've kept up with the series thus far, this ending will be as satisfying as splitting a milkshake from Pops.
View Issue       View Full Review

I'm still not completely sold on every single element of Hell Sonja, but after this second issue, I definitely like what I see.
View Issue       View Full Review

While there are elements of Hell Sonja that are enjoyable, the series as a whole might not do enough to draw in anyone who isn't a diehard Sonja fan.
View Issue       View Full Review

Diehard fans of Billy and Teddy will surely want to add this to their collection, but this isn't a must-read on a larger level.
View Issue       View Full Review

I do enjoy the work that Murewa Ayodele and Dotun Akande are bringing to life here, but I feel like even the individual installments of the series need a bit more of a direction.
View Issue       View Full Review

I'm definitely excited to see how I Walk With Monsters concludes, but this issue doesn't give me universal confidence that it can stick its landing.
View Issue       View Full Review

While some of the dialogue and art feel awkwardly flat, there is just enough depth (both narrative and aesthetic) on display to make this a worthwhile adventure.
View Issue       View Full Review

The conflict of Icon vs. Hardware gets even bigger and potentially-intriguing, but that doesn't stop the remainder of the issue from being somewhat inconsistent.
View Issue       View Full Review

With art that's inspired, albeit a little predictable, and a number of unanswered questions regarding the larger event, Iron Man Annual #1 is far from a perfect interlude from Marvel Comics' Iron Man, but it proves to be a reasonably well-executed, sorta-standalone story.
View Issue       View Full Review

A handful of key moments and decent art make this an okay read, but it feels like Iron Man 2020 #1 is carrying over way too much baggage from the most recent run.
View Issue       View Full Review

But overall, Join the Future's narrative and aesthetics seem to be setting up a significant altercation in the issues to come, while also building out its very specific, but familiar, world.
View Issue       View Full Review

This series is definitely adding something interesting to DC Black Label, and we'll just have to wait and see if it sticks the landing.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are enough Easter eggs and fascinating pieces of worldbuilding to make this a worthwhile ride, but it's one that only diehard fans of Criminal Sanity might want to take.
View Issue       View Full Review

While its ambitions are simultaneously both too lofty and too small, the sophomore outing of Kneel Before Zod does exhibit some promise.
View Issue       View Full Review

While this is far from Kneel Before Zod's best or most thrilling issue, it does have some positives.
View Issue       View Full Review

While this might not be the most definitively perfect Spider-Man story, it's a pretty solid way for younger readers to become more familiar with Peter, Miles, and Gwen.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are just enough fun quips and enjoyable moments to make this a fun, but imperfect, ride, especially considering the way things appear to be set up with the issue's cliffhanger.
View Issue       View Full Review

Overall, the start to this maxi-series is just good, but probably will not wow readers right out of the gate.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some good moments in this series, but they're sandwiched in between awkward quips and additionally awkward art.
View Issue       View Full Review

There are some occasionally-great moments (an earnestly-silly splash page midway through the issue comes to mind), but there isn't a lot here that will make this a must-read.

Metal Men has finally reached its penultimate issue"and it's about as entertaining and inconsistent as the series as a whole.

"Space Oddities" takes the Monsters Unleashed! team -- or at least, some of them -- on a delightfully unique adventure.

There are moments where the dialogue gets a little weak, but the third act reveal and the overall message of the issue almost make up for it.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue might not draw in a lot of new fans, but it's sure to please diehard lovers of both franchises.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue might not be the most memorable, but it's still quite a bit of fun to read.
View Issue       View Full Review

At the end of the day, the issue delivers a message of love and being helpful to each other, in a package that's just sweet enough to be endearing.
View Issue       View Full Review

To an extent, the issue suffers a bit from having to be the first part of a two-parter, but it still creates an interesting enough read.
View Issue       View Full Review

If you're a fan of Shalvey's work, Old Dog is worth diving into immediately, but otherwise, we'll just have to wait and see if it's worth taking the plunge.

The sketchy, fall-toned aesthetic ties the whole issue together, and makes it an overall solid installment.
View Issue       View Full Review

This issue is an interesting beast, striking a balace between narratively unsettling and aesthetically gorgeous.
View Issue       View Full Review

With gorgeous colors and a relatively good balance of suspense and adorable moments, fans of this franchise will surely be pleased with how things wrap up.

If you've been following this series thus far, you'll surely enjoy where things are headed with this.

Over the Garden Wall's latest spooky miniseries continues in a good, but not great, issue.
View Issue       View Full Review

A collection of previously-unpublished stories from the 1990s and 2000s from Dustin Weaver, Paklis #0 is as much of a mixed bag as most other anthologies, but with some bright spots.
View Issue       View Full Review

This series might not be for everyone, but this issue definitely helps it establish its unique style.
View Issue       View Full Review

It certainly doesn't help that the most significant turning point for this series happened in the pages of Catwoman a thing that's commonplace in superhero storytelling, but still causes this book to dance around a much more compelling narrative cavity.

The penultimate issue of this Punchline series is a lot like its predecessors snappy and action-packed, but a little hollow.

Frank Castle's first mission as War Machine reaches its third act, and the end result is ultimately fairly satisfying.

It's not necessarily the best outing for every character involved -- namely in the fact that Vilanova's art style doesn't work for every single Avengers member -- but the issue is a pretty solid read overall.
