Justice League (2018) #70
Dec 29, 2021 |
I'd read a full 22 pages of "Justice League Dark" every month to be honest, but as of right now, Justice League #70 provides quite the one-two punch, and the series seems to be back on track. |

Justice League (2018) #71
Jan 26, 2022 |
Justice League #70 surprised me after succeeding in making the Royal Flush Gang an actual compelling threat to the League, but it seems that wasn't meant to last. Issue #71 quickly reveals that whatever threat they posed has been dealt with, and while I did enjoy how Brian Michael Bendis, Phil Hester, Romulo Fajardo Jr, and Eric Gapstur brought the fallout from their actions to life over the next several pages, it was a bit deflating to see them put down so quickly. |

Justice League (2018) #72
Feb 9, 2022 |
The number of artists on this one issue does lead to some abrupt switches in style, and there are moments where the League sounds a bit off (like Aquaman's weird "suit up, my League" line), but the heavy focus on the JL Dark team and a promising setup for the battle moving forward make this an issue worth picking up. |

There's a bit of a space opera feel to Marvel's latest issue of Marauders, but that's far from a bad thing. Even the opening looks straight out of Star Wars, and having the Marauders a bit outside of their usual surroundings provides some delightful moments of comedy and intrigue, especially when Kate Pryde and Emma Frost are involved. |

One of the things I happen to adore about Marauders is how it lets stories and characters breathe, fleshing out the small details in characters' individual arcs while also creating compelling intrigue in Mutantkind and Krakoa's political dealings and relationships. Marauders #26 is a brilliant example of this, as while it doesn't move a larger narrative or story forward, it presents so many smaller yet no less delightful moments throughout that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. |
