While I can't recommend this book as a standalone issue, it is a decent conclusion to an intriguing storyline. If you want to give this book a try though, I'd recommend waiting for the tradewhich should be available sometime next year.

While not my favorite book coming out of Zenescope, and even though this story has very little to do with the events of Realms War, Cinderella: Age of Darkness #3 is sheer fun and worth a look.

Overall, '68 Homefront #3 is not my favorite issue of this long running series, but does serve as a pretty good zombie story. I'm curious to see how the threads which were introduced here will be resolved in the next issue and whether they'll be reintroduced in future installments of the series.

Overall, Big Trouble In Little China #6 won't be winning any awards, but it's a fun book filled with humor and worth reading if you're looking for something different and unique.

Overall, this was a fairly enjoyable issue with plenty of exposition to move the overall plot of the book along. I wish we had seen more of Murphy but Killian's story is very interesting and definitely looks like it will pay off soon. With a talented creative team, Robocop is shaping up to be a great successor to the Robocop film franchise, but it is not without problems.

Overall, The Fox #1 is a good first issue though I wasn't blown away as I expected. Haspiel and Waid do a fine job setting up all the main players in the series here and definitely bring up some interesting plot points that I hope are explored soon. While it may not have been my favorite book as of late, there's a lot to like here, particularly if you appreciate the golden age of comics which this book clearly references throughout.

Overall, this oversized first issue of Conundrum is quite an accomplishment and I look forward to seeing how the future of Thomas, Zener, and the Ubermensch become intertwined. If you love this type of steampunk-inspired story that serves as a throwback to early comics, then Conundrum #1 is certainly a book you should give a try.

Overall, I wasn't very impressed with Project Superpowers: Blackcross #1, but I can definitely see the potential of story exploding after a couple of more issues as Ellis continues to build upon the mythology of the series. If you're a fan of Elli's work and prefer the darker stories which have become so popular as of late though, and don't mind the slow buildup, this may be a book well worth checking out.

Overall, another good issue to a great series which every horror fan should be reading.

Grimm Tales of Terror #9 is another great addition to the growing Zenescope line, and a fine example of horror comics done right. If you're not reading this book yet, you are really missing out on one of the most genuinely exciting and scary books being published today.

With a title like Holy F*ck, there's really not much you can expect but pure insanity, and issue 3 definitely delivers. If you want a book that doesn't take itself seriously, but is pure comedic gold from start to finish, then this may be a book for you.

A book featuring a young girl and a giant dinosaur as its protagonists could have easily become just another cliched Godzilla ripoff, but the creative team is presenting us with an intriguing story which shows continued potential to be a great hit.

While not perfect, The Bigger Bang #1 shows a great deal of potential. I'm not entirely sure the direction this miniseries will take through its four-issue run, but I look forward to coming along for the ride.

Overall, The Last Fall #3 is another great installment to the series with a lot of great exposition. As long as IDW can keep publishing these books on schedule, they may have a sleeper hit with this series.

Overall, The Little Mermaid #1 is a solid start to a series which has definitely peaked my interest. While the comparison to Aspen's Fathom may seem a little obvious at times, that's not a bad comparison to make as this book does just as well at updating and old concept and making it interesting for a new audience.

Overall, Quantum and Woody Must Die! #4 is a terrific conclusion to what has been a really fun series with terrific character exploration for two characters which are somewhat overlooked by many fans. While no word has been given on when Quantum and Woody will return, I look forward to seeing more of this kind of story for the characters as they become more than cartoon-character versions of superheroes.

Overall, Creature Cops: Special Varmint Unit #1 is a very enjoyable book with tons of story potential. The cast is interesting, the story is unique, and the creative team is right on point.

As good as Brisson's writing and narrative has been in this book, it is Johnnie Christmas' pencils that ultimately attracted me to the story and kept me along for the ride. His style is a bit sketchy and muddied which may put some readers off, but it conveys so much emotion that it serves as a terrific compliment to Brisson's gritty tale.Overall, Sheltered #15 is a solid epilogue to one of the most intriguing books of recent times. While not as gripping and powerful as the last issue, this book left me wanting the series to continue as we finally see the volcano explode which is supposed to bring on the apocalype. If you haven't read this book yet, pick up the first trade and give it a shot, you will not be disappointed.

All-New Hawkeye #1 is a great start to Clint and Kate's adventures and with a creative team as talented as this, there's no doubt in my mind that the book will continue in the tradition of its predecessor.

Archer and Armstrong: The One Percent #1 should excite current fans of the series and really sets up some very interesting story possibilities for the future of these characters, and I can't wait to see how this affects the rest of the Valiant universe.

Bloodshot Reborn #5 is another terrific installment to a captivating series. Over five issues, weve seen Bloodshot trying to regain his lost identify, but with this issue finally see that what really matters is the level of progression that Bloodshot has made over the past five issues and how much he has learned about himself, even if he still refuses to read his own file to learn his true identity. To be honest, whether we ever learn who he really was is probably not important as it is who the character has become that really is making Bloodshot Reborn consistently one of Valiants best books and this issue is no exception.

With an interesting premise, great characters, and amazing art, Burning Fields

Overall, Conan/Red Sonja #1 is a solid start to the miniseries. Simone and Zub have really nailed these characters and made them interesting to both old and new readers alike. I look forward to seeing how this story develops " a definite read.

Overall, Dead Drop #1 is a tremendously fun issue which raises some really interesting questions as to what is going on. Just what is the virus that's introduced here and how is it connected not just to the Vine but to some of the other alien connections in the Valiant universe. While not a perfect issue, Dead Drop #1 is off to a great start and has really sold me on the rest of the miniseries.

Overall, Ivar, Timewalker #2 is a great book with terrific dialogue and beautiful art. Van Lente has definitely done his research basing many of the concepts in this book on real science and it shows. Definitely pick this up!

Remender and Tocchini continue to impress me with every issue of this series and the levels of depth they are adding to the characters and the world with each succeeding chapter. Considering the ending of this issue, I am very excited to see where issue 6 will take us.

Nailbiter #7 is packed full of emotion and exposition which will delight existing readers of the series, and should peak the interest of anyone picking the book up for the first time. The book definitely has a macabre feel to it, but if you're looking for an engrossing detective story, this is a series you do not want to miss.

All in all, Ninjak #11 is a terrific issue that manages to elevate not just this series to a whole new level, but an often overlooked side of the universe. Fans have been clamoring for more of the magical side of Valiant ever since the first Death Defying Doctor Mirage miniseries, and this is an issue that truly delivers.

Overall, Pisces #1 is a terrific inaugural issue with an intriguing story and fantastic art. If you go into this book with the solicitation in mind you may be surprised with what you find inside, but this book has strong potential to be one of the best new series of 2015 so pick it up!

Overall, another great issue to a serious that I am really enjoying, and I cannot wait to see how the developments which surfaced in this serious propel the serious forward into uncharted territory.

Overall, Symmetry #1 is a great start for this new series. While it may not be perfect, and parts of the book may give some readers a sense of discomfort in how this world works, it is no doubt intriguing, and Hawkins and Ienco have managed to create a living, breathing world in just one issue and thats no easy task. It would be difficult to say whether this will be the next runaway hit for Image and Top Cow, but if the creative team continues in this direction, there is no doubt this book will develop a large following, and deservedly so. Symmetry #1 is a book you will certainly want to pick up.

Overall, Unity #15 is a terrific issue with a great change of pace. The focus on individual characters over the next few issues should offer this team a new avenue to shine on their own and serve as a perfect jumping on point for new readers.

I'll be up-front and honest; I have very much enjoyed PERE PREZ's artwork since first seeing his work in the pages of ARCHER & ARMSTRONG, and PREZ's work in UNITY #16 does not disappoint. His clean art style, and ability to draw faces which display emotion and character is on point. Valiant colorist BRIAN REBER (a man who basically IS Valiant's coloring process; I mean, did you enjoy the colors on the last VEI comic you read? Whatever it was, BRIAN likely colored it) brings PREZ's art to life with the quality, dimension, and blending that the master that is REBER is both known and respected for.

Wrath of the Eternal Warrior #2 continues the character-driven reimagining of Gilad and delivers a solid story with just enough reveals to satisfy the readers, while holding back enough to keep you wanting to come back for more. We have seen a shift over the last year to more character-driven books at Valiant and Wrath of the Eternal Warrior seems to continue this shift with a simple yet deeply layered exploration of a character we still know so little about. With solid narration, intriguing world building, and beautiful art, this is one book you should be adding to your pull list.

For those of you jumping on board with Dead Hand, you may find yourselves a little lost amidst the new revelations, but for returning readers, this issue is a definite treat which has me eagerly anticipation the conclusion of the arc.

Overall, X-O Manowar #44 is an excellent addition to Arics story and the The Kill List is shaping up to be another solid arc that is sure to set up whats next in X-Os corner of the Valiant universe. If X-O Manowar is not on your pull list, you are definitely missing out.

While there are some darker elements to the story " the mysterious man on the carriage who kidnaps children, for example " this is a very fun story that anyone can get into.

I eagerly await the release of the next issue in this series.

While God Hates Astronauts may not be a book for everyone, it's a terrific story that never takes itself seriously.

While The Black Hood may have debuted during the golden age of comics, don't think that this is just a tired rehash of old characters and concepts. Swierczynski and Gaydon have done an amazing job at updating the book to modern times, and creating one of the most polished and emotional books of 2015. If this title is any indication of what's to come, I expect a lot of people will be adding Archie and Dark Circle books to their pull list. The Black Hood #1 is a must read.

Huge compliments go out to Albuquerque for the art in this book which is just stunning. Particularly important to remember as you're reading is that while color work can often make or break the visuals of a book, they actually mean something here, and help differentiate different moments in time which is something not often done in comics.

If you skipped out on the first issue, you may want to rethink your decision. Tooth & Claw #2 further expands on the first issue with some very interesting story and character development with the same beautiful art and character design. If this book continues to develop this way, Tooth & Claw may very well become a classic fantasy tale that everyone will want to read.

The Fade Out has a fascinating and very intricate story with beautiful art which will keep you coming back for more.

In addition, there are some great pieces of information including first appearances, deaths, best team-ups which will be great for new fans along with teasers for new Eternal Warrior, Archer and Armstrong, and Harbinger series which has really excited a lot of the current fan base the past few days. Overall, a great FCBD book which I hope will bring at least a few new readers on board.

If you enjoyed the first issue, there's no reason not to pick up Wytches #2. Snyder is a strong writer, but always seems to be at his best when working on his own projects, and Wytches is shaping up to be a masterful story.

Overall, Book of Death: The Fall of Bloodshot #1 is a perfect companion book not just to this summers event, but also to the mythos of Bloodshot itself.

X-O Manowar already has the first year of stories scripted and illustrated and is bound to take Aric into some exciting new directions that we havent seen before. X-O Manowar has always seemed like it was just one step away from becoming a cosmic title that could tackle new worlds and concepts, and so far, it seems like that is exactly the direction which the creative team is on track to take it.
