Wayward #2 |
Oct 8, 2014 |
Wayward is an interesting comic. It's filled with oddity"monsters and spirits and unexplained magical powers. However, minus the premise and the great looking art, Wayward has nothing else going for it. The slow pacing of the story and the needless and lengthy expositions are banes that really compel me to drop the title. Either that or these stories aren't just my kind of tea. Do pick up Wayward if you're into any of the following: Japanese culture, characters with lots of cats following her around, and American comics inspired by anime/manga. |

Unity #10 |
Oct 8, 2014 |
Kindt is stomping around neutral grounds with the tenth issue of Unity. While it appears that he may be slowly stripping off the groundwork to whatever it is that the Armor Hunters crossover is building up to, all the creative choices he made in Issue #10 were all safe bets. We were treated with an all-too familiar second act, but were left hanging to introduce a much bigger threat. Gin-Gr's origin story was poignant, but it isn't really easy to try to relate to something that just burned the whole of Mexico to a pulp. This feels like a skippable chapter, if you're only into Unity for the whole part of the Armor Hunters crossover, but not a bad read over-all for regular readers of the comic. |

The Wicked + The Divine #1 |
Jul 4, 2014 |
The Wicked + The Divine #1 is the epitome of a perfect debut issue. The writing is witty and engaging, the art is vibrant, the colours are gorgeous. Everything about this book is beautiful. If you only had enough money to pull 1 new book, make it this. It's everything the title says it is. It's wicked. It's divine. I have nothing but praise for this book. |
