Blue Book (2023) #4

Jun 1, 2023

Blue Book#4 continues to deliver the healthy dose of Paranormal mystery the series has brought to the comic books. It is a solid showcase for an ace group of creators at the top of their game. If this is begging of a new True Weird sub-genre, then sign me up!

Groot (2023) #1

May 9, 2023

Groot #1 is a fun, warm-hearted opening issue to a series that promises to be a critical development to the Guardians of The Galaxy and their corner of the Marvel Universe. And, as with all things Groot, it's another example of how heroes come in all shapes and sizes and sometimes, when it comes to the words they use, less is more.

Jun 29, 2023

As with the Art across the Bone Orchard tales, a deep sense of mystery is woven into every image with a cinematic flare. By capturing the characters in enigmatic poses and spreading intricate panels across dark and eerie backgrounds.

As with issues#1 Remender continues to pull no punches, and The Sacrificers already represents some of his most dark, strange, and wonderfully poetic work.

Ultimate Invasion (2023) #2

Aug 3, 2023

Ultimate Invasion works mainly because of Jonathan Hickam's ability to create detailed plots around razor-sharp dialogue, expert pacing, and subtle use of action. Diehard Ultimate universe obsessives and those as clueless as I will surly enjoy this entertaining slant on the Marvel Universe.
