The Amazing Mary Jane" #5 continues to be the kind of fun superhero romp you expect from Leah Williams.

"Atlantis Attacks" #3 is Pak at the top of his game, allowing him to build an exciting and messy conflict through top-notch visual storytelling.

Mike Norton's art is the star of "Battlepug" #5 by creating a visual story that is chaotic and very memorable.

"Birthright" #42 combines effective dark and moody art and a tragic story of found family to create a modern-day fantasy epic worth checking out.

"Bitter Roots" #6 is a complex adventure that still manages to have a lot of fun, with art that pays homage to the period in which the adventure is set.

Zub's dialogue and Medina's art are quite good, it just feels like the adventure is too much of a retread from the last adventure.

A strong entry into the continued evolution of one of Marvel's best characters, showing a haunted man behind all of the arrogance and bravado.

While the ending felt rushed, "Doctor Strange" #19 is an excellent jumping-on point for new readers, featuring a compelling personal conflict and some excellent art of the world of magic.

Jim Zub captures the unique energy of playing a tabletop RPG and at the end of the day, that's what you want from a Dungeons and Dragons comic.

Final Verdict: 9.0 "Fantastic Four: Grimm Noir" #1 creates a comic that takes full advantage of the storytelling conventions of film noir while telling a powerful story about fighting back against your inner demons.

"Folklords" #3 is a book that uses every aspect of the medium to tell a story about the true nature of a folk tale monster. While impressive, it does take some time to realize just what the creative team is up to.

"G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero" #270 is a fun romp that feels like watching an episode of the classic cartoon.

"Ghostbusters: Year One" #2 has its moments, but there isn't much to make this stand out as a Ghostbusters story.

"Glow vs. the Baby Face" #3 features some good writing, but the art diminishes the overall effect.

Final Verdict: 6.5 "Gotham City Monsters" #6 doesn't quite stick the landing, but strong character work and good art make for a solid issue.

"Gwenpool Strikes Back" #3 is a meta comic that felt fresh and original, and was a whole lot of fun to read. Highly recommended!

"Ice Cream Man" #17 is a familiar type of superhero satire, one that over the years has become boring.

"Isola" #10 tells a story that effectively builds tension and conflict that takes a character's dream and slowly turns it into a nightmare.

"Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal Age of Resistance" #1 features impressive artwork that showcases the beauty and terror of Thra, while featuring a story compelling enough to continue reading.

"Jughead's Time Police" #5 is a lighthearted take on the alternate timeline story that allows both the author and artist to have a lot of fun exploring all the different worlds of the Archie Universe.

If you're looking for the right balance of high adventure and political intrigue, look no farther than "Marauders."

"Quantum & Woody" #2 is a story about balance, which successfully balances humor, heart, and fun art.

"Shazam!" #9 is a comic with a fun artistic design that puts a difficult choice at the forefront. Geoff Johns does a good job of making that choice have some serious weight.

"Picard: Countdown" #1 showcases a script and art that reflects the strengths of both Picard and Star Trek: The Next Generation.

"Star Trek Year Five" #6 delivers an issue that feels like classic Trek, featuring a decent mystery and a solid Klingon standoff.

"Star Trek: Year Five: Valentine's Day Special" #1 is a fun love story that shows the benefits (and struggles) of falling in love with someone as ambitious as you are.

"Star Wars" #2 is an engaging adventure that understands and enhances the characters of the original trilogy.

Star Wars: Bounty Hunters #1 attempts to do too much in a single issue, it is too spread out to be really satisfying.

While the art of "Starship Down" #1 is good, the characters leave something to be desired.

Fraction and Company tell a convincing story of a man slowly losing grip on reality while capturing the art and tone of a silver age comic.

An exciting story that is elevated by the artistic team's amazing depiction of dark magic.

Snyder and Soule do a great job of baiting the hook in "Undiscovered Country" #2. Combine that with a Mad Max America, and you have a special book on your hands.

A decent, if ultimately forgettable, comic that invokes the nostalgia of a Saturday morning cartoon.
