War of the Realms: Journey Into Mystery #5

Jun 24, 2019

Through this book, The McElroys perfectly married their talents with Marvel, and had a worthy artistic collaborator in Andr Lima Arajo. #5 sticks the landing, and is thrilling and funny in equal measure.

Daredevil (2019) Annual #1

Sep 2, 2020

Daredevil (2019) #7

Jun 24, 2019

Chip Zdarsky continues to move pieces around in the wake of Matt Murdock's retirement from vigilante life. It's another strong issue for this run and continues to be one of the most interesting Daredevil stories to date.

Another solid issue of Zdarksy's Daredevil run. It's let down by some art issues, but the story continues to be interesting and compelling.

Event Leviathan #2

Jul 14, 2019

Event Leviathan continues to squander a compelling premise and a great cast of characters. There are interesting elements at play, but so far they're not working as well as they could be.
