All-Star Superman #1
Sep 10, 2013 |
This is considered as one of the all time greatest Superman story ever, with a lot of people classing it as the best story ever, me included. Morrison gives a very emotional, and symbolic story, that shows Superman in his final days. It also had some fun, and interesting mini-stories, which fit perfectly into the main story. The action was also perfect, being exciting, and explosive, with great art from Quitely Due to all this I'd highly recommend this story to anyone, whether you're a Superman fan or not, and if you are a Superman fan and haven't read this, then you certainly need to, as it is definitely amongst the best Superman stories ever. |

With the conclusion of this story coming ever nearer Lemire's produced an amazing penultimate issue, and although the fights were a bit short, the overall development was brilliant, and the issue left me wanting to read Justice League Dark Annual #1. I would recommend this issue to anyone, and the entire series, as it's been nothing short of phenomenal. |

I'd still recommend this issue, as it shows how good a series this is when this is the worst issue I've read. |

This issue didn't have too much action, but it was still exciting, and mysterious, as well as very unique.

Morrison's run is almost near it's end, and he isn't half going out in a big way, and I hope he can keep as much excitement as this issue had throughout the remaining issues. I would easily recommend this issue to anyone, whether you want to get one of the better Requiem issues, or a fan of the series already, as it's a very emotional issue. |

Although I'm not necessarily happy about the series taking a detour, this was a very fun, and entertaining issue, and a nice change from the normal dark mood that this series has had as of late. I also loved seeing the Batman of Japan again, and how he worked with his partner Canary, and although the issue did have it's flaws, it was overall very fun, and thoroughly enjoyable. I would recommend this to anyone that's been getting this series so far, but would recommend caution towards other readers, as although I enjoyed it, you may not, as it's the type of issue that you either like, or hate. |

Due to all this I'd highly recommend this issue, as whether you've been following this series, or enjoyed a few stories from Morrison's run, it's worth seeing how it ended. |

This issue itself was also very interesting, and exciting, as well as being dramatic and mysterious, and it's made me real excited for the main story.

Harley Quinn (2013) #0
Dec 2, 2013 |
One of the most unique zero issues that I've ever read this was a brilliant introduction for new fans of Harley Quinn as well as a brilliant story for old fans. It would have an array of wonderful artists all vying for the job of drawing Harley on a regular basis with the tone being simply perfect for her character. Due to all this I'd highly recommend this issue and if the series continues with this tone it's bound to become a hit. |

Although not the best issue in the series, this was still a very good issue, and much better than anything from the previous series. It was a brilliant end to the Attuma story, and although I feel the story could have been handled better as a whole, it was still very interesting, and at times also very entertaining. I also liked that Waid has had this issue focus more on Banner, and although that took away from the action, it made the issue more interesting. I would easily recommend this issue, and the entire series, as it's the best the Hulk's been since Greg Pak finished his series. |

A brilliant ending, to a fabulous run. This was probably the most emotional issue in the series so far, and in my opinion the best. I would highly recommend both this issue, and the entire series, and am looking forward to seeing what Soule, and Kano do with the series. |

Swamp Thing (2011) #19
Sep 4, 2013 |
This was a brilliant start for the new creative team, but it still wasn't quite as good as the work Snyder, and Paquette produced on the series, but it's still early days, and I'm sure Soule, and Kano will become a brilliant team. This issue was very interesting, and although it wasn't as fun as it could have been, it did show some fun elements, which was nice, as mostly Swamp Thing is a dark story, wit ton's of emotion (although this still had emotion). I would easily recommend this to both current Swamp Thing readers that are sceptical over the new creative teams, and new readers wondering if this story's a good jumping on point (which it is). |

Sep 23, 2013 |
This was an amazing issue, and one of the best Swamp Thing issues of recent months, as well as one of the best Villains Month issues so far. The story itself was very gory, also being slightly disturbing which suited the characters perfectly. The dram and suspense throughout was also outstanding, and overall the issue had the perfect tone to it. This makes this issue easy to recommend and I'd especially recommend it to any Swamp Thing or Arcane fans. |

The reveal itself was also handled in a mysterious fashion, as though the reveal itself left me in two minds, the way it was delivered more than mesmerized. So what are you waiting for?

This was another brilliant issue, and on par with the outstanding opener. It had amazing, and exciting action, with a mysterious, and interesting new villain who's sure to have more to say before this story's through. The drama, and suspense caused by this villain was also brilliant, and although I was disappointed that Jubilee didn't have too big an appearance, it didn't take away from the story. Due to all this I'd highly recommend this issue, and the previous, and if this series continues like this it will quickly become one of my favourite's, which I would never have thought of prior to it's release. |

It also had plenty of mystery, and suspense, as well as fun, and overall there wasn't a great deal wrong with this issue. The only real problem was that it was a bit rushed, as the story should really have had at least one more issue. Besides all this I'd easily recommend this issue, and the previous two, as the series has been truly amazing. |

Descender #2 may not be quite as enthralling as it's opening issue, but that doesn't stop it from being a must have. This emotional tale is a testament to the creative team, with the innocent, yet intuitive mindset of Tim-21 being magnificent. The dramatic tempo, and exciting action also allows for an intense flair, with the gripping climax being nothing more than an added bonus. |

Descender #13 does an amazing job of giving us some much needed background for Captain Telsa, but ultimately retracts too much from the main narrative. This leads to me questioning whether the creative team are in fact stalling for time, as despite this being a captivating tale, it would have been better suited between arcs. |

Django/Zorro may not have excelled on the whole next to the characters respective tales, but this finale more than impressed. Being exciting, clever, and down right bloody, the final battle of Django and Zorro against Langdon is more than befitting these two warriors, making the event well worth it. There was on the other hand some questionable moments, with the art feeling strained by the extra pages. This isn't enough to overshadow the positives though. |

This was a terrific start to this series, and giving the type of series it is it couldn't be any better. I wish I could give this series a 5 star, but it's not quite their due to it being a bringing together/introduction issue, but it's still very good, and I expect it to have a 5 star issue very soon, if not the next issue. I would highly recommend this issue, and am looking forward to the next one, as I'm very interested in this series now, more so than before. |

The continuation of the action from last issue, as well as some new action of it's own also made the issue exciting, and dynamic, and I honestly can't wait to read the next issue. I would highly recommend both this issue, and the series so far, as it's been a blast, and the future, as well as it's involvement in Trinity War shows a lot of promise for this series to get even better than it already is. |

This was probably the best issue in the series so far, being nothing short of phenomenal. The issue itself contained everything I love in a comic, being dramatic, emotional, mysterious, humorous, and exciting, all in the right doses, and Johns really out did himself here. The action was also spectacular, and with appearances from both Dr. Light, and Shaggy Man, Johns definitely seems to be livening things up. I would highly recommend this issue, and the series as a whole, and can't wait for the next issue. |

This was a good issue, but probably the worst in the story so far. It had some interesting points, also having some brilliant drama, and suspense, but overall it didn't too much to develop the story, and felt like a filler issue, with the sole purpose of setting up the final two issues in the story. I would however still recommend it, but only to people considering getting the entire story, or who have been getting the story so far, as it's a good continuation, but would be too confusing on it's own. |

Batman #48 moves “Superheavy” forward in a truly extraordinary manner, with the simple, yet powerful developments being truly captivating. This is all complimented by some sensational artwork, and when you throw in some thrilling twists it's hard to not recommend this. |

Batman #49 is easily one of the best issues that Scott Snyder has written, with Bruce's transformation into the Batman being simply extraordinary. The creative team also give us some memorable moments in between this, with a narrative that was captivating from start to finish. |

Batman #50 may not have been the grand spectacle I hoped it would be, failing in certain areas, but what it did do was give us a fitting conclusion to “Superheavy.” It would also see Bruce return to the cape and cowl in a thrilling manner, as despite the design not being to my taste, the symbolism in these events definitely appealed to my fanboy nature. |

Batman #51 is a decent end to Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo‘s run on the comic, but at the same time it wasn't as spectacular as I hoped. What it did do, was give us a bold, symbolic take on Gotham and why Batman is such a crucial part to it's environment. |

This was a good issue and decent addition to Death of the Family. The series is still not as strong as it was in the earlier issue, and need improvement, but is on the right track. I would recommend this issue, especially if you're collecting the Death of the Family tie-ins, or a fan of the Damian character. |

Aug 7, 2013 |
Probably one of the most touching issues I've ever read this is the perfect follow-on from Batman Inc. #8, and in my opinion a better issue. Although the whole Requiem concept has interested me, with some very unique takes, this has been the one that's showed the loss of Damian the most, and I don't see the remaining series' beating it. I would easily recommend this to anyone, whether you follow this series or not, as it's brilliant, and very emotional, and even if you just wanted to read this issue you wouldn't need to get the rest of the series. |

Sep 13, 2013 |
This was a terrific story, and it got the Two-Face character spot on. It has also been one of the better Villains Month issues from this week, being very exciting, and dramatic, whilst managing to balance in both dark, and fun elements. It also had a very interesting story that ties in nicely with Forever Evil without it being necessary to read both to enjoy one or the other. Due to all this I'd highly recommend this issue, as although it wasn't quite perfect it was extremely enjoyable. |

This wasn't one of the best Villains Month issue so far, and in my opinion felt a bit unnecessary. I have however not been a follower of the Court of Owls, so Talon readers may find it to be very enjoyable. The issue itself was also very gritty and suspenseful, being brilliantly structured, having amazing artwork that suited the tone of the story. Due to all this I'd recommend the issue to anyone who'd either been following the Court of Owls in Talon, or a fan of the group in general, but for new readers I'd probably recommend caution as it may not be the best issue to introduce them to you. |

It also had some brilliant action, as well as having a lot of drama and suspense throughout. On top of that there was some very interesting developments that have me looking forward to Infinity #5 even more than I already was. Due to all this I'd highly recommend this issue, as well as the main Infinity event and the Avengers tie-ins as they are all truly amazing. |

New Avengers (2013) #12
Dec 8, 2013 |
This was a terrific issue and a brilliant epilogue. It would also set-up the future of this series perfectly, utilising the events of Infinity to do this. The issue itself would be very dramatic and exciting, and would have a lot of suspense as well with it's overall tone being simply perfect. Due to this I'd highly recommend this issue as well as the whole of the Infinity event and can't wait to see what will happen in this series next. |

Red Sonja #100 is what all anniversary issues should aspire to be like, as though there's nothing flashy within their tales, being fully detached from the ongoing series, they manage to capture the character's charm and energetic tone perfectly. It also acts as a great taster for fans that are unsure of the character, as though $7.99 may seem a pricey way of doing so, it beats feeling committed to a series that's not for you. |

This was a good issue, but it maybe would have been better to have shown Morbius escape the Raft at the end of 699, or the start of 700, and have a point one issue for the Morbius ongoing series to tell his origin. Other than that this was a very good issue, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who's a fan of Morbius, but will warn that it doesn't really connect much with the upcoming 700th issue. |

Boy is it a good time to be a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan. Not only are we still excited about the recent film (though some may argue against that case), and entertained by the animated adventures from Nickelodeon (albeit it' not as good as the original animated series), but with such bold events happening in the comic world it's just impossible not to shout, "Turtle Power." |

Batman #26 moves “The War of Jokes and Riddles” forward in an interesting fashion, as despite still being in the early days, there's still enough to entice. The story also continue to keep the two key villains firmly in the spotlight, as in spite of Batman making the odd appearance, he is clearly a side-note to this personal battle. |

Jul 21, 2017 |
Batman #27 is an thoroughly enjoyable read, being an intriguing interlude to “The War of Jokes and Riddles.” Giving us a surprisingly compelling origin story for Kite-Man, the creative team fashion a narrative that shows the effect of this war, with the emotional depth and character driven nature of the story making it easy to recommend this comic. |

Batman #28 may very well be the worst issue of Tom King‘s run so far. Despite giving some interesting developments for “The War of Jokes and Riddles” storyline, the lack of progression and sloppy narration makes it hard to enjoy this latest instalment. The visual side of the book is, on the other hand, as sensational as ever, with this hopefully being nothing more than a minor blip in what will be remembered as an enjoyable story arc. |

This was a brilliant end to a mediocre story. Although I've enjoyed the new origin for Scarecrow, it was stretched over too many issue, and I hope that Hurwitz doesn't do this with the next story. Although this was a good issue, due to it being the end of a story I'd only recommend it to people who have the rest, or parts of the story, or are considering getting the rest of the story. I'd also probably recommend the entire story, as it had a brilliant start, and ending, but unfortunately dragged in the middle. I'd probably overall rate this story a 4/5. |

This was a very good story, and a fun re-telling of Superman's origins. It did however have a few problems that affected the overall quality, and rating, but it was still a very interesting read. It also had plenty of humour, and emotion, with brilliant dialogue, and amazing artwork. There was also some decent action, and although it wasn't the best action ever, it was entertaining, and amazing to look at. Due to all this I'd highly recommend this story, as even with it's flaws it's an outstanding story, and well worth the read, whether you're a Superman fan or not. |

Oct 7, 2014 |
Tales of Honor brings it's first arc to an exciting conclusion, with the narration based storytelling being at it's best. It also gives more definition to our heroine Honor, with her wise thoughts allowing for some really intriguing revelations. Due to all these reasons, in addition with the fact it leaves the door open for more, this issue comes highly recommended. |

The Maxx: Maxximized #10
Aug 12, 2014 |
Something that we're nearly always guaranteed is great art (with fans of the original series being able to reiterate that). In this issue Kieth gives us a mixture of tones, with his usual quirky style in the present, with a slightly rougher tone during Mr. Gone's tale. The dynamic layouts of both give the energetic flow that has made The Maxx stand out visually, with the strange creatures being a joy to witness. The stand out thing in this remastered version of The Maxx has to be the colours, with Ronda Pattison pastel like tone being perfect for this series. |

A decent start to the series, this issue shows Cyclops continuing to help the new mutants during his revolution. The issue had drama, excitement, fun, and action, and was truly a decent start to the series. It was however slightly slow at times, with the pacing being inconsistent, and the issue as a whole was lacking in overall quality. I would however recommend it, as it was a good read, and I'm sure the series will get better. |

This was a very good issue, and although there were parts that were disappointing, it was still very dramatic, and gripping, with brilliant dialogue, and emotion. It was also nice to see some of the issue centre around one of the students, Tempest, as with all these big name's it's easy to not spend enough time developing new character's. I would recommend this issue, as despite the series not quite finding it's direction heading into the future, it has been interesting, and still shows ton's of promise. |

This was possibly the weakest issue so far in the series, but if so it wasn't by much, and was still overall amazing. The issue was all over the place, and once again slightly disappointed on the continuation of the previous cliffhanger. It did however make up in other areas, with brilliant dialogue, as well as some fun, and mysterious sequences. Overall the series is still not at it's full potential, but it's still interesting, and I'm sure it will reach it's full potential soon. I would highly recommend this issue, as although like all the issues so far it's lacking in certain areas, it was interesting, and I for one want to read more of it. |

It also had phenomenal art from Frazer Irving, which more than suited the style of story, and I for one want to read more.

This was a fantastic issue, and although the anticlimactic ending of this story was ever so slightly disappointing, the issue as a whole was relatively good. It had cool action, that was exciting, and impactful, as well as emotional sequences. It also had some mystery to it, and the appearance of Doctor Strange, which was also brilliant. Due to this I'd recommend this issue, especially if you've been getting the series so far, but I'd also recommend the rest of the series to others who haven't. On the other hand if you're short for cash, and considering jumping on this series I'd recommend waiting till next issue, which is the start of a new story. |

This was a very interesting issue with some amazing dialogue. It also had ton's of drama, and suspense, and despite the lack of action it was a very good, and impactful issue. The cover is however misleading, so don't buy this expecting a big fight between Cyclops, and Magneto as you'll be disappointed. I would however still recommend this issue, as it was a nice break from action, but for people who are tight on cash, or sceptical about jumping on I'd recommend skipping this issue. |

This wasn't a terrible issue, but it is probably the worst in the series so far. It had some interesting monologue, with plenty of emotion, action, and some mystery. It was however overall a bit mediocre, being more of a filler/set-up issue, also having too quick a pace.

Although this is the worst issue of the crossover so far, it was still very interesting, setting up things brilliantly.

Though not one of the better issues in the story so far, it was still exciting at times, and did a good job of developing the story as a whole. It did however have too much going on, and would have probably been better if some of the sub-plots were cut. There would also however be some very exciting moments, and the issue as a whole would have been much better if not for the amount going on. Due to all this I'd barely recommend it, and especially if you've been following the story so far, but otherwise wait for the trade. |

Uncanny X-Men #600 was a decent way to say goodbye to Brian Michael Bendis' time on the team, as despite it not quite living up to our expectations, it did bring things full circle. At the end of the day however I'm not sure it's quite worth the $5.99 cover price, as although we get more than enough pages for our money, the quality isn't to the standard you'd expect for such a price. |

Mar 25, 2015 |
Doctor Who: The Eleventh Doctor #10 was a hard comic to judge, as though it's always nice to see a happy ending, this one came just a little too soon. Nevertheless, it's still an enjoyable tale, and one that will intrigue any and all Whovians. |

Although not a brilliant issue, this was still a very good issue, and I have a lot of faith that this series will be good. It has fun, action, and mystery, and the name Savage is appropriate, even if Wolverine isn't Savage for too long. I would still recommend this issue, as it's much better than the pre-Marvel NOW! Wolverine series, and I'm sure it'll get better. |

Aug 7, 2013 |
This was a better issue than the last, and it is showing that this story is more than just interesting, it's also exciting, and full of action. After a slightly disappointing opener, I'm happy that this series is fulfilling the promise that it showed, as this was a very fun, and entertaining issue, and Cho did a brilliant job of developing the story. I'd recommend this to anyone, and if you were disappointed with the first issue, and decided to drop it, I'd recommend giving it another shot, as it's one of the better Wolverine stories there's been in the last year. |

This series just keeps getting better, and better, and I can't believe how good it is. This issue didn't just develop the story more, it also gave us action, excitement, humour, and suspense at the same time, and I can't wait to see the next issue, and hope that Cho continues this level of quality. I would easily recommend this issue as it was brilliant, and the story is shaping up to be the best Wolverine story for a while. I'd also recommend anyone that dropped this series after issue 1 to give it another try, as it just keeps getting better, and better, and I'd be surprised if you were disappointed. |

This series has really surprised me, and it just keeps getting better and better, with this issue being phenomenal. It's not only interesting, but keeps the mysterious nature of the story flowing smoothly, and the action sequence near the end was epic, and brutal. I would highly recommend both this issue, and the series, and at this rate I'm expecting a phenomenal conclusion. |

Savage Wolverine #5
Sep 6, 2013 |
After the marvellous issues that we've seen in this series, the opening story finished on a low, being the worst in the series so far. The Hulk was very badly used, and his presence was far from what I'd hoped it would be. It however wasn't the worst thing about this issue, as the ending was terrible, and made the story feel unfinished, which was disappointing. I would only recommend this to anyone who's been following the series so far, but otherwise I'd recommend leaving it alone, as even with the other amazing issues, it will disappoint. |

Due to all this I'd recommend this issue as it's an enjoyable read, but anyone who hasn't been enjoying the series should be sceptical. |

Wolverine (2013) #10
Oct 13, 2013 |
This series has yet again dropped in quality, as although it was only gradually climbing it has taken a backward step in this issue, which was very disappointing. The issue was also very slow, as although the tone and mood helped to make the issue a bit more enjoyable, the only real consolation was the fantastic artwork from Alan Davis. Due to all this I'd only recommend for anyone who has been getting the story so far, as otherwise it's a terrible issue to jump on at. |

Although not as good as the previous issue, and slightly disappointing this was still a decent issue. I'm in two minds whether to recommend this issue or not. In hindsight I would recommend this series, as I expect it to be good in the next few issues, and it'd be a shame to miss one issue in the story. Also I felt that the story needed this slow period to help progress the story. On the other hand it'd probably be better to wait till another couple of issues are out, and see what kind of reception they get, but for anyone that bought issue 1 I'd recommend getting this. |

This was a surprisingly brilliant issue, and probably equal to best along with the first issue. It showed that the series could still be fun, and although it's still far from perfect, with the base of this story still being terrible, it shows hope for the future of this series, and that the next story might actually be good. I would recommend this issue, but not the series as a whole so far, as with only two good issues, as well as two poor it's probably better to either get this issue for the fun it holds, or wait for the next story to start (issue 5). |

This series is still far from being at the level I hoped it'd be, but it deviantly's showing improvement, and this was a very exciting, and entertaining issue. It was also very emotional at times, and had brilliant action, and although there were a couple of disappointing factors involved in this issue, in general it was very good, and I hope this is a sign of things to come. I would highly recommend this issue as although not perfect it was still very good, but if you've not been following the series it may be better to wait until the next issue, as this was the end of a story, and may be confusing without the other issues. |

I would recommend this to any fan of Granov's art, but otherwise I'd recommend waiting to see if the series gets any better, as although this was a decent start it would be a slight waste of money if the series is like this for all four issues. |

Captain America: Living Legend #2
Nov 5, 2013 |
Although this series hasn't improved much in this issue it would be more exciting and show a lot of promise for the second half of the series. It would also have some interesting interactions, as well as keep a mysterious tone throughout. There would also be some extravagant art throughout this issue and although the series hasn't been as good as I hoped it would be, it is starting to grow on me more. Due to this I'd recommend the issue, especially if you enjoy amazing art, but for the patient reader it's probably best to see how well the rest of the series is rated. |

Being a huge Millarworld fan, it saddens me to see Jupiter's Circle fare so poorly, as though I can respect that this is the tale the writer chose to tell, it's vastly different from what was established, feeling more like a soap opera than an epic superhero yarn. Thus I sadly can't recommend this issue, though do hope that things pick up heading into the next. |

Star Wars: Princess Leia #1
Mar 3, 2015 |
Princess Leia #1 continues to prove that Lucasfilms and Disney made the right choice in returning the franchise to Marvel, as though this was a factor that was always going to happen, I'm glad that it's not been so in vain. Despite this, there are some moments about this opening issue that didn't feel right, and I hope this is taken note of going forward. |

Star Wars: Princess Leia #2
Mar 18, 2015 |
Princess Leia continues to be a wonderful addition to the Star Wars canon, as though it's not quite as captivating as the other two series (Star Wars and Darth Vader), it still brings joy to this fanboy. The wonderful character depth and interaction also makes it a series worth following, with the plot also continuing to entice. |

Princess Leia continues to be an interesting read, and a worthy addition to the Star Wars canon. It does however unfortunately suffer some plotting issues, which makes it hard to wholeheartedly recommend this. Thus I'd only do so to fans who are looking to get more froma galaxy far, far away. Otherwise leave it on the shelve. |

Though Princess Leia #4 isn't a terrible issue, I won't be sad to see the series disappear from my pull. Having a rather meager plot, that relies too heavily on the personality of it's main character, this penultimate chapter feels nothing more than a means to an end. It does however do a wonderful job of leading us into the finale, leaving me somewhat excited. |

Superman (2011) #14
Dec 23, 2012 |
This was an amazing issue and a perfect way to start the Superman section of H'el on Earth. I would highly recommend this to everyone, and if you read Superboy or Supergirl I'd recommend trying out this issue, as it continues both series brilliantly. It's also a great starting point for new fans, and the perfect place for older fans who lost faith in the series prior to Lobdell joining returning. I for one am looking forward to seeing what H'el has in store for Superman, Supboy, and Supergirl in their respective series, and if this will come back to this series, like it did with this issue. |

I would highly recommend this issue, as well as the other issues of Superman, Lobdell's wrote, and am looking forward to the next part of H'el on Earth. Although you don't need to buy Superboy #15 to understand this issue, I'd still recommend it, as it shows why Superboy's wearing Superman's Kryptonian Armour, and was a decent comic in it's own right. |

Sep 23, 2013 |
This was a very poor issue that has taken away some of the excitement that I had for the upcoming Krypton Returns crossover. It did however have some amazing artwork by Jurgens, as well as a half decent story, though overall it didn't quite work with the Villains Month concept, focusing too much on Jor-El rather than H'el, also being more to much of a set-up issue. Given all this I'd not recommend getting this issue, and that only people who are going to get Krypton Returns should consider it. |

Eye of Newt ends slightly anticlimactically, as though there's a few enticing moments, the overall quality was lacking. Due to this I can only recommend the issue to people who're either big Arthurian fans, or people who've been following the series. Otherwise give this issue a miss. |

Sep 4, 2014 |
Green Arrow: Futures End proves to be an interesting finale to Lemire and Sorrentino's run on the character, but the over immersion into the Futures End event means that Green Arrow fans that don't follow the event may be left unsatisfied, and thus I can't wholeheartedly recommend it. |

It still manages to retain the same tone and violent nature, and despite the plot being a little mundane there is enough to leave readers itching for more. Lets just hope things pick up soon! |

It also featured the Seven Deadly Sins, as well as the Circle of Eternity, even briefly featuring the other two members of the Trinity of Sin, the Question, and Phantom Stranger. The issue was also the perfect set-up for the Trinity War crossover, and although it'll probably not be necessary to read this in order to enjoy the main part of Trinity War, I'd personally recommend this, as although it wasn't brilliant, it was nice to see Pandora's origin, and how Trinity War came about. |

The changes were also very interesting, and the overall story was very dynamic, and dramatic. Johns also showed a great level of understanding for the character's, as although he made the changes I talked about, deep down every character was the exact same on the inside, with the same fundamentals. Due to all this I'd highly recommend this book (and Superman: Earth One if you have already read that), and can't wait for the sequel, especially after the fabulous teaser at the end of this book. |

Having a fast tempo, and exciting action, it's easy to forget how bad this event is (even if only for a second), with the climax being breathtaking. Just a shame that it's too little, too late. |

Judge Dredd: Blessed Earth #3
Jul 11, 2017 |
Judge Dredd: The Blessed Earth #3 is yet another disappointing instalment in this new series, with it quickly going from poor to worse. Despite the continuing story involving boneless remains being somewhat interesting, with the tease of a familiar face later in the issue, it fails to instil any real form of excitement or hope for this series moving forward. |

Neverboy #1
Mar 3, 2015 |
Neverboy has a lot to make up for, with this opening issue leaving this fanboy a little disheartened. Yes, it delivered a wonderful concept, with the culminating twist allowing for an alluring cliffhanger, but as first impressions go, it needed something a little deeper. Nevertheless, I still have hope in this series, as though I can't recommend this issue, I have faith in the creative team. |

TMNT: Bebop & Rocksteady Destroy Everything #1
Jun 2, 2016 |
TMNT: Bebop & Rocksteady Destroy Everything #1 was a disappointing start to this mini-series, and I hope things pick up massively from here. Having an interesting concept, the creative team do show signs of promise, but alongside a lackluster plot and poor development choices, I unfortunately have very little hope they will achieve this. |

Uncanny X-Force (2010) #35
Jul 15, 2013 |
This was a tremendous issue, and the series couldn't have ended any better. I am sad that the series is ending but I am happy that it ended the way it did, and that Remender will be on decent series. I would highly recommend this to anyone whether you've read X-Force before or not, as it's terrific, and that if you're a new reader to this series I'd advice getting the other issues, whether in comic form, or the collected trade paperbacks, as it's a brilliant series, and you'd be glad you got it. |

Civil War II #1
Jun 3, 2016 |
Civil War II #1 is ultimately a disappointing start to Marvel‘s latest event. Despite there being some interesting points, the execution, lackluster development and poor dialogue prevents this from reaching it's potential. The way it skips over certain key areas that were previously shown in the FCBD issue also don't help improve things, with there being a lot to work on heading into the second issue. |

Civil War II #2
Jun 16, 2016 |
Civil War II #2 was plain disappointing. Moving the story forward at a stagnant pace, the creative team deliver very little for the $4.99 cover price, with some poor development choices not helping matters. That said, the artwork is simply astonishing, easily being the highlight of this event so far. |

Civil War II #3
Jul 15, 2016 |
Civil War II #3 doesn't do much to improve the overall quality of this event, with the creative team needing to do something huge next time out to turn things around. That said the emotional toil and beautiful artwork did make this worth picking up, even if the event as a whole is rather frustrating to those that loved the original. |

Civil War II #4
Jul 29, 2016 |
Civil War II #4 doesn't do much for the event moving forward, as despite giving us some powerful emotions and a gripping cliffhanger, we're still missing the huge conflict we were expecting. That said, the final moments do show a lot of promise, and though that may be too little, too late, I am hopeful it will be the turning point this crossover has been so badly needing. |

Skin & Earth #1
Jul 11, 2017 |
Skin & Earth #1 is a pretty underwhelming opening issue, as despite having an interesting concept, the story as a whole is rather dull. The creator also makes it hard to like the main character, as despite not quite being dislikeable, Enaia Jin does lack any real personality. |

Vampirella / Army of Darkness #1
Jul 7, 2015 |
Vampirella/Army of Darkness #1 was just downright disappointing, as though it showed promise near the end, having inviting artwork, it failed to capture Ash's characteristics perfectly. It also had a rather slow start, and though it quickly heated things up near the end, this didn't help neutralize the poor representation. |

Vampirella / Army of Darkness #3
Sep 8, 2015 |
Vampirella/Army of Darkness is slowly starting to turn into a decent tale, as despite there being little reason for this crossover to happen in the first place, the narrative is starting to heat up. This is probably best reflected in the character interaction, as although the interpretation is a bit questionable, it allows for great drama. |

Elfquest: Final Quest #1
Jan 24, 2014 |
This bit of Elfquest didn't appeal, being rather dull and slow. It is however early days for this particular saga and the issue itself did have some worthwhile points. For the time being however I couldn't recommend this, and would only suggest trying it if you're already a fan of the franchise. |

Grayson: Futures End has some interesting concepts, but the overall flow of this story in reverse fails to impress, and thud I can't recommend it. |

Torchwood #1
Aug 3, 2016 |
Torchwood #1 is far from the start I was hoping for, reflecting everything that I've come to dislike about the Doctor Who spin-off over the last few years. Not only does it give us a story that is overcrowded and at times awkward to follow, but the inconsistent art also makes it hard to enjoy, with the next issue having a lot to make up for. |

Deadpool v Gambit #1
Jun 24, 2016 |
Deadpool vs. Gambit #1 is a rather strange and muddled start for this mini-series, being far from the epic conflict I hoped for. The lack of focus on out two titular characters didn't help improve upon this, being rather cheap at times. That said, there was some promise shown in this opening issue, even if it came during the last page. |

Star Wars: The Force Awakens #1
Jun 22, 2016 |
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Adaptation #1 is a sheer mess, capturing very little of what made the movie a huge success. Despite having the same premise and following the same plot line, the creative team move things forward at a too fast a pace, with there being no time to savour one particular development. |
