Aquaman is one of DC's biggest icons, and he deserves to be celebrated as such. Thankfully DC did just that with the Aquaman 80th Anniversary 100-Page Super Spectacular, and it's a celebration no Aquaman fan will want to miss.

DC went all out to celebrate the Ring Slinger's 80th Annivesary, and the Green Lantern 80th Anniversary 100-Page Super Spectacular delivers all that a Lantern fan could ask for.

While there are some charming parts at the beginning and end of the issue, there's just not enough here to make this a must-buy, though there is some fun to be had if you're willing to overlook some flaws.

Absolute Green Lantern continues DC's stellar track record and delivers a debut that shakes the Lantern mythology to its core, setting the foundation for even bigger and brighter things to come.

[RELATED: DCs Absolute Green Lantern Team Teases Hal Jordans Very Bad Day, Alien Encounters, and More (Exclusive)]While much of the issue is set on Krypton, some key moments also play out in the present, allowing Superman to almost move full circle. The sense of loss and isolation is truly palpable in those final pages, and it all coalesces into an unforgettable comic that is already making its case to be one of the best of the year. Absolute Superman as a series is exceptional, and Absolute Superman #5 is a must-read.

When things do hit the fan, the action is stunning, with even this early version of Superman looking like a powerhouse. Despite that, he's all too human, once again showcasing the core of who Superman has always been. This version is perhaps even more so in some regards, and as the issue closes with some of the most powerful moments, there's also a welcome bit of intrigue thrown into the pot, teasing more powerful moments to come.

Absolute Wonder Woman continues to encapsulate the bold ideas the Absolute line promised from the outset, and yet this is also a series that feels quintessentially Wonder Woman through and through, and it isn't likely to abandon that high bar anytime soon.

As for that final showdown with Hades, it absolutely delivers, and I'm not sure you can get owned more than Hades does by Diana, and moments of hope and tragedy are also laced all the way through. Absolute Wonder Woman #7 is a triumph and deserves all the praise.

This wasn't really what I was expecting it all, but any Moon Knight fan will definitely not want to miss out on all the fun.

Overall, it feels like the team's trying to find its rhythm a bit in this first issue, but the potential is clearly there.

It might have started out a little slow, but here Aero is truly starting to hit its stride, and we're quickly becoming big fans of the hero and her amazing world.

The issue has a few hiccups, but the highs definitely outweigh the lows.

Writer Zhou Liefen's first story is gorgeous to look at but just doesn't have the depth or moment to moment action of previous issues, and especially when compared to the second half of the book.

There are highs and lows in this book, so here's hoping that once the team finds its rhythm they can capitalize on the book's serious potential.

Agents of Atlas got off to a solid start, but after #2 you can clearly see how much potential this team and this premise has.

Agents of Atlas has carved out its own little corner of the Marvel universe and will reward anyone willing to try something new.

Overall Agents of Atlas continues to build on its delightful cast and engaging central premise, but it seems like it hasn't quite hit full gear.

It seems this book is really hitting its stride at just the right time.

While this isn't a necessary pick-up, if you decide to jump in you'll find yourself wishing this wasn't just a one-shot.

It's always a delight to have America Chavez in the spotlight, and thankfully America Chavez: Made In The U.S.A. #1 brings so many of the aspects we love about the character to the forefront.

This series is really starting to hit its stride, and things should get even better from here.

America Chavez: Made in the U.S.A.'s first two issues are quite good, more than good really, but they still don't really prepare you for what's to come in issue #3.

There' still a lot to love here even with the odd ending, and hopefully, the final issue can stick the landing.

It wasn't the finale I initially hoped for, but it still gets America to a new place and brings some welcome new elements into her life that should only make her adventures even better, and I can't wait to see what's in store for her from here.

If you're a fan of American Gods you'll still enjoy it, but it doesn't seem as if it reached its potential.

Russell does a wonderful job building this mystery and making the revelations pay off as the issue shows its hand, and it all makes for an issue you don't want to miss.

This was not at all what I was expecting from a premise like this, but that's what I found most refreshing about it, and the journey to uncovering all the secrets this town holds is one I couldn't be more delighted to be on, and I think you'll dig it too.

An Unkindness of Ravens got off to a delightful start, and while issue #2 doesn't quite hit the same high note, there's still a lot to love.

This series is starting to really hit its stride, and the more we dive into the central Ravens vs Survivors conflict the better the series will be.

An Unkindness of Ravens has been slow to reveal its hand, but between the second half of last issue and issue #4, we're finally getting a much stronger picture of what's really at stake in the series, and it's easily the most exciting part of the series.

If there's a second series it has the potential to be even better than the first, but if not, this issue will serve as a satisfying conclusion that perhaps doesn't quite reach all the potential of the premise.

Analog #6 starts off a bit slow but eventually finds its rhythm, and that's due in a major way to writer Gerry Duggan's delightful team of lethal oddballs.

Writer Gerry Duggan moves the larger plot line along but has some fun on the way in the form of a bar brawl that is hilarious at times, and shows that more often than not Jack sort of lucks into being good at his job.

There's something truly charming about Jack and his oddball crew, and it's enough to overtake some of the book's rougher edges.

If the series can continue to add new layers to this beloved character in the same way issue #0 does, we're in for one hell of a ride.

If the rest of the series is this good, Angel fans are in for a hell of a ride.

Angel #2 builds off of a stellar debut while adding at times subtle and at others not-so-subtle new layers to the mythos, the supporting cast, and Angel himself.

Angel has found its rhythm, and things are only going to get better from here.

So far this has been an Angel fan's dream, and the book doesn't show any signs of slowing down.

As you can clearly see, Angel is in stellar hands, and we couldn't be more excited about what's to come. -

Angel continues to capture the essence of the classic show while finding fresh new ways to twist the mythos, and it shows no sign of stopping anytime soon!

Angel might not be around at the moment, but that isn't keeping his series down in the slightest.

Hellmouth has taken Angel out of the mix of his own solo title, but that isn't slowing down the series one bit, and it's all thanks to Spike.

The introduction of Spike into the mix has been a breath of fresh air, and it gets even better now that Angel is back in the picture.

Angel had already hit its stride, but adding Spike to the series has made this series even more addictive, and here's hoping he doesn't leave anytime soon.

There's a lot to like about Angel & Spike, but hopefully we'll get to see the latter half of that delightful duo a bit more next issue.

Angel continues to deliver a series longtime fans will enjoy while also opening up this crazy world for fans new to the franchise, and if you're missing out you might just want to fix that ASAP.

Angel's been quite caught up in the events of Hellmouth, but Angel #13 takes a quick detour for a straight-up mystery tale that was one of the week's biggest surprises.

Angel & Spike has been a bit hit and miss over the past few issues, but things are wonderfully back on track with issue #15.

Angel and Spike saves some of its most compelling content for last, but even before those final few pages the adventure finds a few ways to impress.

Throughout this rollercoaster ride of a journey, it always comes down to Sandor and Jesse, and Animosity #27 adds yet another compelling layer to their whirlwind story.

Hopefully, this is not the end of more stories in Anthem, because this proves how much potential there is.

"Unspoken Water" has been a delightful breath of fresh air for Aquaman, and the future looks even more promising

The issue drops a few surprise bombshells, but writer Kelly Sue DeConnick ensures there's more to them than simple shock factor.

In short, this is everything you could possibly want in an Aquaman story and, luckily, things are just getting started.

Granted, some of these story points will assuredly pay off down the line, but at times it does feel as if the book is spinning its wheels, at least until the last few pages. That said, there's a lot to love here, and Jackson Hyde provides a welcome shot of energy, not to mention the stellar visuals from artists Robson Rocha, Sunny Gho, and Daniel Henriques.

Aquaman is spinning a very different sort of yarn, but we can't get enough of it.

Aquaman continues to surprise us with new additions that expand the character in new ways, and we can't get enough of it.

Aquaman fans are no stranger to Black Manta, but the villain is definitely one of the standouts in Kelly Sue DeConnick's new Aquaman series. DeConnick has found an inventive way to explore the villain's past and history with Luthor's gift, and throughout the issue she finds even more interesting ways to add Jackson, Mera, and more to the fray, and each and every ingredient makes the stew that much better.

Aquaman has been building to an epic battle between Black Manta and Aquaman, and luckily for fans Aquaman #55 delivers on all that promise.

The love story of Aquaman and Mera has been quite the rollercoaster ride, and it continues to surprise at every turn.

Aquaman is more than a book about one hero, and those who give it a chance will find a wonderful oddball family of characters that have come together in the sweetest way.

It's been a delight seeing this team breathe new life into the Aquaman mythos and cast, and it's only getting better from here.

Simply put, this is Aquaman at its finest, and the next issue can't get here soon enough.

Aquaman continues to find new ways to weave political intrigue with undersea action and a love story unlike any other, and if you aren't adding this to your pull list you're missing out.

Granted, the book lacks much in the way of action (aside from one brief sequence) and this isn't an essential tie-in to the main storyline, but even those nitpicks aren't enough to take away from what the book does so well, and if you've got room in your pull list this week, Aquaman is definitely worth a look.

Still, the stakes are high enough to deliver the necessary tension in the claustrophobic battles and seeing Jackson overcome the baggage that's been holding him back is worth every damn penny, so if you're a fan of Jackson or the Aquaman side of the world in general, this is a must.

The conflict is finally boiling over in Aquaman #64, and it feels like all of the elements writer Kelly Sue DeConnick has built over the course of her run are starting to come together.

Sure, it could've been longer and a bit more action-packed, but those issues don't keep it from delivering a satisfying conclusion to this bold new chapter of Aquaman that I'm sad to see end.

Bringing an established series into an event can be a tricky endeavor, and while Aquaman #66 doesn't deliver an unforgettable chapter of "Endless Winter" or Aquaman in general, it still has several delightful moments for fans of the characters.

This is not mandatory reading to enjoy the main series, but those who give it a chance will find a lot to like in this one-shot, and for Aquaman fans we definitely recommend it.

Aquaman: Andromeda #1 is a little sluggish early on but shows bountiful potential, and issue #2 can't get here soon enough.

As things build the series continues to get more complex and more enthralling, but the series hasn't yet maximized its potential, and hopefully Book Three will be the issue to bring it all together.

Aquaman: Andromeda saved its best issue for last, crafting an Aquaman story unlike anything else.

Writers Chuck Brown and Brandon Thomas team up with artist Sami Basri, colorist Adriano Lucas, and letterer Andworld Design to deliver an entertaining but relatively safe opening issue that succeeds in moving the chess pieces into position.

It still feels like we're doing more set up than anything, but it does also feel like we're about to hit some open road, and that should really get the story off to the races.

Aquamen #3 shifts the story into a welcome next gear, but it's difficult to shake the feeling that we could've arrived at this point much sooner.

Aquamen #4 is finally bringing the band together, and unsurprisingly, the book is one of if not the strongest entry in the series because of it.

This issue was fantastic from beginning to end, and while I wish we had hit this gear sooner, I'm not complaining now that we're here!

Aquaman fans will find all sorts of shining character moments to love, but as a whole, the series wasn't as much of a home run as I hoped it would be.

Not required reading, but if you're looking for a proper hero's sendoff and a reaffirming of this group's most likable traits, you can't do any better than this.

This isn't the epic send off that we necessarily wanted, as it still feels like there were things left to explore with this team that went unfulfilled. That said, we truly enjoyed our time with the Asgardians, and this finale manages to wrap things up in a solid and entertaining bow.

Quite a bit of world-building can be found in Assassin's Apprentice #1, though it sets about doing so mostly through dialogue, and that helps keep you bonded to Fitz's journey through this harsh and cold world.

The world of Assassin's Apprentice feels has a weight and aura to it that makes hooks you in despite its at times unwelcoming grit.

Assassin's Apprentice is a series I now look forward to each and every month, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

There's an extensive amount of dialogue occupying the page, but Kelly, Bellaire, and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou keeps thing from becoming overwhelming. I'm completely invested at this point, and the hooks only sink in further with every issue.

Assassin's Apprentice has become a series I look forward to each and every month, and the table is set for even bigger things in the future.

Assassin's Apprentice tees up chapter two brilliantly, but chapter one has been stellar across the board, and chapter two can't get here soon enough.

Overall this was a solid introduction to the world of Valhalla, and hopefully issue #2 can build on its momentum.

Assassin's Creed: Valhalla's "Dawn of Ragnarok" expansion is finally here, but if you're looking to get some additional context, Dark Horse's Forgotten Myths miniseries is a perfect first stop, and so far it's off to an extremely promising start.

One of the best parts of the game is the back and forth between Sigurd and Eivor, so hopefully, we'll get a bit more of that next issue, but even without that there's a solid adventure tale here.

Assassin's Creed: Valhalla Forgotten Myths #2 spins a grand story of wars and Gods, though the sweet yet complicated relationship between Baldr and Loki is really what deserves all the attention.

This wasn't the strongest Assassin's Creed series, but I still found quite a bit to love about Forgotten Myths, and as a result, it won't be long before I end up diving back into Valhalla once more.

Artist Martin Tunica and colorist Michael Atiyeh convey weighty impact with each blow, and I've never winced so much as I do when I see that "slckk" sound follow someone's blade.

I'm always up for a new spotlight on Iceman, but it's even better when it's this damn good.

All in all, Astonishing Iceman has highlighted the best aspects of the character while further expanding the man behind the powers, and I'm greatly looking forward to what's next.

When Astonishing Iceman #3 shines, it shines brightly, but several elements hold it back from reaching that next level.

The villain storyline woven between everything isn't as compelling as Iceman's own story, and there's a lengthy block of text in the form of a letter that slowed everything to a crawl, but those are relatively small issues that don't bring down all the things that clearly work. Hopefully we get more teacups down the line, but even if this is the only one, it's one I truly enjoyed.

. Writer Steve Orlando has highlighted the characters trademark humor and aspects of his family relationships, but Astonishing Iceman #5 puts Bobby's altruistic nature on full display while showcasing a newfound fearlessness after the trauma of the Hellfire Gala.

I never thought a team of bug-themed villains could be this much fun, but Zeb Wells has thoroughly proven me wrong.

Avengers is the epitome of a whirlwind rollercoaster ride, and we're definitely here for it.

Aaron has a reputation for making revelations like these mean something in the long run, and if that's the case once gain in the "Age of Khonshu," Moon Knight fans are in for one amazing ride.

Jason Aaron and Javier Garron are all about twisting expectations, and boy do they live up to that reputation here.

The issue may drag a bit at the beginning, but by issue's end it's all worth it, and hopefully, the next issue can keep the momentum going right from the start.

Avengers has taken Moon Knight and made him relevant to the Marvel Universe in a bold new way, and the next issue can't get here soon enough.

"The Age of Khonshu" started with a bang but unfortunately ended with a bit of a whimper.

The issue is perhaps a bit too ambitious and could've cut some of the Phoenix stuff, but overall it sets up a Mephisto story that's managed to get its hooks in.

We're back in a familiar place by book's end, and time will tell if this has the meaning to the story it implies, but as of right now, this feels like a must-read for those invested in what comes next, and it's an easy recommend.

Not going to lie, I wasn't exactly looking forward to this arc of Avengers, but this first issue hooked me quite a bit, and I'm eager to see where we go from here.

If the arc can ride this momentum and find an ending as creative as its character lineup, this will be one of the more entertaining Phoenix stories in recent memory.

Some parts of the issue feel a little on the filler side (though incredibly gorgeous filler to be fair), but it seems things are moving in the right direction by issue's end.

A lot of things are happening but not a lot of meaningful progression is made, so hopefully, next issue's conclusion can change that.

"Enter The Phoenix" has been an action spectacle, and that is the case once more with the big finale, which also delivers on its promise and reveals the next true host of the Phoenix.

If we can keep up that momentum, this could be the best arc of Avengers yet.

Soon we're going to need some answers, and the nature of those answers will go a long way in figuring out just how good this initial issue was, but just based on what's here, it's a solid start.

"World War She-Hulk" got off to a solid start, but the second issue is really where things pick up steam.

You do come out of this understanding more of the lengths the Red Room went to to takeover She-Hulk, and the layering of systems at work does make her transformation believable, but what the book hasn't convinced me of yet is the why we're doing this at all.

There's still another chapter to go, so we'll have to wait and see if it can stick the landing, but so far this series hasn't quite captured the promise it had, and this issue in particular stumbled quite a bit.

It's a bit of a rollercoaster ride, and a long one at that, so buckle in because there is a lot to cover.

If this is what we can expect from this series moving forward, the future of Avengers is looking pretty damn fantastic.

It took a minute, but the story of the Starbrand is finally starting to catch fire and has immediately become the most compelling aspect of this multiversal saga.

Avengers #53 only includes one actual Avenger, though Jason Aaron makes you forget that as soon as Valkyrie enters the picture, and once she does you're immediately reminded of the magic Aaron can work with the character.

Carol and T'Challa's exchanges are especially great, and while a few pieces of dialogue try a bit too hard, it's a small hiccup in an otherwise excellent issue, and I can't wait to see these bigger than life battles play out when Avengers #4 hits.

Writer Jed MacKay set the table for the Ashen Combine to become a genuine Avengers-level threat, and that promise is realized in Avengers #4.

Avengers #5 is not as strong as other issues in the series, but it features some welcome moments that Avengers fans will want to see, and it sets up the team for quite the comeback.

This is easily one of my favorite issues of Avengers thus far, and it primes the stage for a promising next chapter for Marvel's most powerful team.

Sure the answer of Thor's origin is revealed, but the journey there is as important if not more than the destination, and it turns out this story was one worth waiting for.

Basilisk #12 delivered a satisfying and thrilling ending, one that I will be thinking about for quite some time.

This issue hit me much harder than I expected it to, and I think it will for just about all Batman fans too.

The series' title carries high expectations and Batman/Superman #1 meets those expectations head-on.

Some lines and plot developments miss the mark a bit, but overall this is a rollicking good time with two iconic heroes, and we're looking forward to what the future holds.

Batman/Superman features quite the rollercoaster-meets-chess-match between the Batman Who Laughs and the World's Finest, and #3 stacks the deck further in the villains' favor.

Batman/Superman has been an entertaining ride thus far, but #4 doesn't spend as much time focusing on the series' biggest strength.

Batman/Superman #5 puts the best aspects of the Worlds Finest at the forefront once more, and that's why the series ends its first arc with a bang.

We can't say enough about Nick Derington and Dave McCaig's art, which at first doesn't seem like the best fit but with one splash page completely won me over, and the duo create some fun and lively action scenes together.

If you're looking for a solid Superman and Batman team-up story this will fit the bill, though it had the potential to be even better.

The issue sets up this adventure with everything it needs to fulfill its potential, and from here on out it should have no problem soaring.

It all makes for a fun if relatively light adventure featuring two of DC's biggest icons, and that's plenty to warrant some of your time.

Batman/Superman's "Atomic" arc got off to a promising start, but with its conclusion, it feels like we're right back where we started.

Artist Max Raynor and colorist Alejandro Sanchez are up to that summer blockbuster challenge as well, and are the perfect fit for this quite delightful DC popcorn flick.

This take on Batman and Superman is big bombastic fun, and I'm here for it.

Sometimes you just want to grab some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy some blockbuster action, and Batman/Superman #14 is that to a tee.

We then get a touching moment of honesty between the two heroes that you can't help but smile at, and while some of the other elements of the book don't hit those similar high marks, it's an enjoyable team-up that left a much bigger impression than I expected, and what a welcome surprise.

I didn't really know what to expect when I started Batman/Superman #16, only that it would be different than what has come before, and it most certainly was. Granted, the core premise of Batman and Superman teaming up is still the focal point, so not too big of a shift, but it's the execution that really shocked me, though I came away impressed.

This take on the World's Finest has been a welcome surprise, and it's quickly becoming one of my most anticipated books each month.

Batman/Superman continues to surprise me with every issue, and I simply can't get enough of it.

This particular issue starts out a little slower than the previous issues in the story, but it picks up considerably in the second half, and it feels like the conclusion will be worth it in the end.

While my interest in the main villain is waning a bit, twists like Etrigan have kept me invested in the overall narrative, and I'm quite curious how much crazier things will get before the issue reaches the climax.

This really was a world of fun, and while I'm sad to see the series ending, at least it went out on top.

I've truly enjoyed this run on DC's iconic duo, and it's sad to say goodbye so soon.

This feels like a vintage DC story in the absolute best way, and I'm going to be quite sad to see it go.

This isn't a must-read mind you, but if you want a surprisingly dark battle through a more lighthearted prism and some genuine laughs out loud moments, this might be the perfect book for you.

Superman and The Authority has been a delight, so what happens when you add Batman to the mix? Well, it actually somehow manages to get better.

Now, while this issue is excellent unto itself, it's also setting up a much bigger story, and the seeds of that story are compelling. Unfortunately, there's only a page and a half of that to cling onto, so while the setup is great, it won't be until issue #2 that this story truly kicks into gear. Even with that caveat, the issue is entertaining unto itself, and how it sets up Grodd to be a major figure in this crossover is critical, so it's still a big win and an easy recommendation.

Whether you're a long time fan or someone looking to start something new, I couldn't recommend Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic #1 more.

With that massive hook at the end topping things off, Neo-Gothic #2 is just too damn good, and you should absolutely be reading this series.

In a year that's been stacked with impressive Batman stories, Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic has shown it not only stands beside those stories, but may even surpass them.

Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic has been superb through its first three issues, and while issue #4 is a different beast in some ways, it's no less compelling.

Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic has evolved past being simply a Batman Beyond story and more a story of two halves of Gotham fighting for survival, and that's part of what's made the series so fascinating.

Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic came out of nowhere and delivered the one of a kind Batman story I didn't know I needed, and hopefully it's not too long before we see where this world and its lovely cast of characters goes next.

At times I had to wonder what the heck I was reading, but by the end of Batman/The Maxx #4, I did have a good grip on this team-up adventure, though that doesn't mean I enjoyed it.

If you're a fan of the character and the artistic style you'll definitely find something to love here, but as I can attest to, it's not a book that everyone will get the same level of enjoyment out of.

Batman: Beyond The White Knight #1 captures your attention instantly with its eye-catching visuals, but it's the oh-so-human family dynamics at the center of it all that makes it so damn great. If you've been on the fence as to diving into the White Knight Universe, this is the perfect place to start, and if you do you might find yourself jumping all the way in.

A shocking twist puts the cherry on the sundae, so if these two issues are any indication of how the whole series will be, this could end up being one of the best White Knight stories yet.

Batman: Beyond the White Knight is one of my absolute favorite DC stories at the moment, and despite the admittedly high bar it finds a way to deliver each and every time.

Batman: Beyond the White Knight continues to hit new heights, as issue #4 delivers some long-awaited conversations and reveals that kick the larger narrative into overdrive.

While there are several outstanding Batman books on the market right now, Beyond The White Knight deserves to be recognized as one of the best, and somehow it just keeps getting better.

Murphy and Dave Stewart don't know how to create a book that isn't simply stunning, and that attention to detail only makes those heartfelt reunions and heartbreaking twists hit that much harder. I simply adore this series, and Book Six is no exception.

Sean Murphy, Dave Stewart, and Andworld Design have created such a stunning and unique corner of the Batman universe in White Knight, and frankly, I'm sad that another chapter is about to come to a close. If the finale hits as hard as this though, we're in for something truly special.

The fact that this universe is continuing delights me to no end, and Batman: Beyond the White Knight showcases just why this universe is so special.

This comic makes a stellar impression with its cover alone, and thankfully that holds true throughout the remainder of the issue.

Batman Curse of the White Knight delivers with every issue, and it looks to get even better from here.

It might be set in an alternate universe, but if you're a Batman fan there's no reason you shouldn't be reading Curse of the White Knight.

Sean Murphy and Matt Hollingsworth are once again on their A-game with Batman: Curse of the White Knight #5 and the series continues to reveal intriguing new layers of the Wayne legacy and Batman's relationship with Gotham.

Curse of the White Knight is anything but cursed, and we can't wait to see how it all ends.

This isn't the strongest issue of the series, but it sill packs amazing visuals and an emotional punch into the book's big conclusion, and brings this phenomenal series to a close...for now.

If you're looking for the traditional Mr. Freeze story this is not it, but that's far from a bad thing, so if you're looking for something new you should definitely give this take on the classic Batman villain a shot.

I'll hold full judgment until we see how it all comes together in the end, but aside from the book's visual splendor, this particular issue just didn't click with me overall.

There's a lot of potential here, but those looking for a bit of depth might not find what they're looking or.

The Batwing story didn't really clock with me on any level, but 3 out of 4 is certainly impressive, and frankly, it's worth it for the first story alone.

All in all there's a lot to like here, even if everything doesn't click with you in the same way.

Batman: Urban Legends #6 is absolutely loaded, so do yourself a favor and add it to your stack.

When you consider the strength of all four stories, this is one of the best issues of Batman: Urban Legends thus far, and it proves how powerful and entertaining the anthology format can be.

This wasn't wall-to-wall greatness this time around, but what is here is definitely worth a look.

Batman: Urban Legends continues to tell some of the most captivating stories in the Bat-verse, and Urban Legends #9 is no exception.

All in all Batman: Urban Legends #10 is the perfect book for fans of the Bat-family and the holidays, and easily deserves a recommendation.

Mark Russell, Karl Mostert, Trish Mulvihill, and Steve Wands turned what could be a formulaic Batman adventure into something heartfelt and tense, and when you combine it with everything else in the issue, this is a can't miss for Batman fans.

Batman: Urban Legends #12 is a brilliant mix of genres, bouncing from the realms of the supernatural and the afterlife all the way to spy thrillers and animal team-ups, with each one bringing something memorable and compelling to the party.

Batman: Urban Legends #14 has a bit of everything for fans of the Dark Knight, but it also features a brand new team that has instantly become a personal favorite.

Fans who dive into Batman: Urban Legends #15 are in for a treat and some of the most varied Batman storytelling around.

Overall, Urban Legends #16 is an easy recommendation for fans of the Bat-Family.

The classic detective feel of "On His Worst Nights" is a nice way to cap the issue, and while I wouldn't say any of these are must-reads, any Batman fan will find something to enjoy.

With five stories to choose from, Batman: Urban Legends #18 truly offers something for every type of Batman fan, and without a doubt deserves a spot on your pull list this week.

The series may have taken a little longer than people had hoped, but it's still become one of the most consistently excellent books in DC's catalog.

Overall, I enjoyed this issue from beginning to end, and love how this series continues to find new avenues of the Dark Knight to explore and isn't afraid to take chances, and this issue is a perfect example of that in action.

Overall though, another stellar issue of one of the most thoroughly entertaining Bat-books out there.

Batman: Urban Legends has been on a roll as of late, and Urban Legends #22 continues that trend with three more stellar adventures in the Batman universe.

It's sad to say goodbye, but Batman: Urban Legends saved one of its best for last, and I couldn't recommend it more.

White Knight Presents: Harley Quinn moves this world forward in new and interesting ways and shines a light on one of the best characters in this inventive take on the Batman mythos, and I couldn't recommend it more.

Granted, this issue wasn't quite as strong as issue #1, but that's more because the series set a rather high bar right out of the gate, and issue #2 continues the book's winning streak.

There are quite a few iterations of Harley Quinn out in the world, but I can already say that this is by far my favorite, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

This has become a series I genuinely look forward to each and every month, and at this point, it's a world I never want to leave.

I can't compliment this series enough, and it seems to only be getting better.

I knew this day would come eventually, that being the day I would have to say goodbye to this exceptional series that quite honestly took me by surprise. That said, that love of the series all meant that my expectations were rather high, which is why it's wonderful to say that Batman: White Knight Presents: Harley Quinn easily surpassed those expectations and brought this delightful series to a satisfying close.

Red Hood #1 does a wonderful job of setting the stage for a new dynamic duo, and now that the stage is all set, issue #2 should be off to the races right from the start, and I can't wait to see what happens next.

Batman: White Knight Presents Red Hood might have only lasted two issues, but it packed quite a bit into those two issues and then found a way to somehow make Beyond The White Knight's ongoing story even better in the process.

There is inconsistency throughout the issue though, and the villains in the midst of everything didn't exactly grab me. This could still turn into something great, but it's off to a rocky launch.

This series just hasn't clicked for me yet, but there are some quality pieces on the board, and hopefully those can come together as the story continues.

This series has yet to find the perfect balance between its split storytelling, but when the series hits it really hits, so hopefully there's more of that to come in future issues.

Bishop: War College feels like it's nearing its peak right as we move into the final book, and hopefully that means the finale will be even better.

Bishop: War College's grand finale hits the ground running and brings the story to a satisfying close, and looks to have achieved its goal in shining a light on an eclectic and compelling group of heroes.

Blade Forger #1 features a bit of a steeper curve, building the world, the characters, and the overall timeline rather quickly. That said, it's more than worth the investment, and it would appear that Inaki and Roy Miranda have once again crafted a world that will capture your imagination in every way.

With an equally distinct and vivid art style coupled with it, Bloodline: Daughter of Blade #1 is everything I was hoping for, and the future for the character and this world couldn't be brighter.

Bloodline: Daughter of Blade had a killer debut, and though issue #2 narrows down its focus a bit, it doesn't lose any momentum.

This is the issue fans have been waiting for ever since Bloodline: Daughter of Blade was first revealed, and you won't be disappointed.

Bloodline is as addictive as ever, and hopefully the series only gets more entertaining from here.

Bloodline: Daughter of Blade comes to a thrilling close in issue #5, and the future of the character looks brighter than ever.

Bloodshot is an adrenaline rush from the opening page, and it manages to keep your attention throughout the issue.

It's a wonderful time to be a Blue Beetle fan, and this newest era is off to one hell of a start.

Jaime might not be at the top of his game at the moment, but Blue Beetle the series surely is.

There's a lot happening throughout Blue Beetle #3, but one can't help but first acknowledge how stunning this series continues to be.

Blue Beetle consistently hits it out of the park, and issue #4 continues the winning streak.

Blue Beetle #5 keeps the momentum moving and sets the stage for a grand final battle, so don't miss out on one of DC's best.

Blue Beetle has been building to a final confrontation between Jaime and the Blood Scarab, and while that battle is finally here, it ends up taking a truly unexpected turn.

The mix of action, personal growth, off the wall charm, and fun is something no fan of Giffen or Blue Beetle will want to miss, so make sure you don't.

Just when you think Blue Beetle is ready to move the heat to a low simmer, it zigs and throws everything into the pan at once, and it's proven to be a winning mixture once more.

Blue Beetle absolutely rules, and you're missing out if you're not along for the ride.

Blue Beetle is a triumph in every way, and I can't wait to see what the team has up their sleeves next.

Gutierrez, Quintana, and Gattoni's art throughout the issue is simply stunning, and while it's sad to see the story brought to a close while it still had plenty of gas in the tank, it's still a lovely farewell to one of DC's most underrated series.

If you're looking for a series that brilliantly encapsulates the hero at its core, look no further than Blue Beetle: Graduation Day #1.

Blue Beetle: Graduation Day is an easy recommendation, and it only looks to be getting better from here.

Blue Beetle: Graduation Day is shaping up to be something special, and issue #3 is a brilliant example of why.

Blue Beetle: Graduation Day has been simply stunning from the very beginning, but issue #4 might just be one of the series' best looking issues yet.

Blue Beetle: Graduation Day has fulfilled its premise in so many ways to this point, and the finale looks to end this fantastic series in epic fashion.

Blue Beetle: Graduation Day lives up to its name with a captivating finale that sets the stage for many more stories to come.

The story being told throughout is compelling and for major fans the other history and lore are all incredibly rich and rewarding, but for the casual fan, this might be a skip.

BOOM! Studios' new one-shot Buffy: Every Generation puts Buffy in the spotlight once more, but it also takes a minute to feature two previous slayers, and it's in those stories where this volume truly shines. Unfortunately, those don't come until later in this one-shot, so the comic doesn't make the best first impression.

Granted, this story isn't required reading in the slightest, but the back and forth between Giles and Spike is worth the price of admission alone, and longtime Buffy fans will likely be quite entertained.

Seriously, Captain Marvel has never been better, and we can't wait to see more.

Artist Annapaola Martello does a nice job filling in for Carmen Carnero, and while overall this isn't a must buy, Captain Marvel fans will not regret picking it up.

If you want a Captain Marvel book that will make you smile, this is the issue for you.

Captain Marvel is at her best when her back is against the wall, and writer Kelly Thompson seems to know that. It's in these moments that fans get a glimpse of the person underneath all that power, showing just how human and relatable Carol is, and reminding us why we fell in love with the character all those years ago.

Hopefully, the next issue will bring with it a few more answers, but this series is already delivering on its initial promise.

Carmen Carnero and Tamra Bonvillain are on their A game here as well, delivering in both the intimate conversations and the city to space spanning battles alike. If you want to know what makes Captain Marvel a hero, look no further.

This is the hero fans first fell in love with, and it's great to see her shine.

Coupled with that hook of an ending, it appears "The Last Avenger" is off to a thrilling start, and we can't wait to see how this thrill ride ends.

"The Last Avenger" got off to a powerful start, and while this issue slows the pace down just a bit, we do get some welcome answers to the central mystery.

Even without an all-too compelling villain, the hook is firmly in place for one epic conclusion, and we can't wait to see how it all ends.

Fans of Carol and her beloved crew of friends will love this thrilling conclusion, which sends The Last Avenger out in style.

This isn't necessary reading, but those who love seeing these characters interact will be in for a treat, and you're guaranteed to crack a smile by issue's end.

Captain Marvel has become the Supreme Accuser, and Captain Marvel #18 is one hell of an introduction to the new status quo.

Captain Marvel #19 will have every Captain Marvel fan smiling from ear to ear, and yes, Lauri-ell is already one of the best new additions of 2020.

This issue has everything a Cap fan could want, so if you miss out, it's your loss.

This rollercoaster ride of an arc not only introduced a delightful new character into Carol's world but also found a way to make a tie-in more rewarding than the series it tied into, and what a joyful ride it's been.

Writer Kelly Thompson shocked the hell out of me in Captain Marvel #22, tying into a one-shot that revealed a much harsher yet incredibly intriguing future that Cap managed to help.

It's amazing to see the world of Captain Marvel: The End expanded in such a rich way in "The New World Part Two," and writer Kelly Thompson not only adds new layers to this alternate reality but also delivers more compelling questions about the future of it.

One of the biggest highlights of this arc though continues to be the team of heroes Thompson's assembled, and after meeting all these wonderful characters it's going to be hard to eventually say goodbye, and fingers crossed we don't have to completely when all is said and done.

While this arc might be ending very soon, Thompson, Garbett, and the entire Captain Marvel crew have only made me love this new reality even more, and I hope we get to return to it someday soon.

"The New World" definitely made a big impression, and while I'm sad to leave, it was more than worth the price of admission.

This is going to end terribly mind you, and the characters know that too, but it's going to make for an unforgettable story with all the heart at the core of it that makes this series work so well, and I'm in for all of it.

So far Carol's journey into the world of magic has been absolutely delightful, and it's an adventure no Cap fan will want to miss.

All of the intrigue and action is balanced with just the right amount of heartbreak and self-reflection, and this Captain Marvel adventure seems to be only getting better from here.

"Strange Magic" was truly a delight, and the future looks brighter than ever for our favorite Captain.

Now, while the issue does stand out for its comedic timing and superhero battle, it does also thankfully set the foundation for the series' next big storyline, so don't worry, because there is some substance with all of the fun.

The first part of "The Last of the Marvels" wastes no time in shifting into full gear, and while it's an action-heavy issue, Carol's own internal conflicts are easily the most compelling elements of the issue.

So far "The Last of the Marvels" is hitting on all cylinders, and the next issue can't get here soon enough.

"The Last of the Marvels" has been a thrilling ride so far and seems to be hitting on all cylinders at the perfect time.

If you happen to be a fan of the Captain Marvel mythology, you're quite in luck, as "The Last of Marvels" part four is loaded with fan favorites, mysterious returns, and fresh concepts that will have any fan losing their mind.

"The Last of the Marvels" comes to a scintillating close in Captain Marvel #36, and everything comes together for a bombastic and satisfying finale.

Captain Marvel has one of the richest and most endearing supporting casts around and nowhere is that more evident than in Captain Marvel #37.

The creation of Binary could have easily gone the way of a quick stunt to get Carol out of a jam, but thankfully that has been far from the case, and now she's quickly becoming an essential part of one of the best supporting casts in Comics. That's not hyperbole either, and Captain Marvel #38 is another shining example of that stellar cast in action.

Captain Marvel has grown exponentially as a character and a hero thanks to her time in the world of magic, and if this is any indication, we still haven't seen just how far this character can truly go.

While messing with magic has rarely gone Carol's way, it has led to some wonderful storytelling and discovery of what makes Captain Marvel so great to begin with, and thankfully it's not over yet.

Captain Marvel's trial of magic has come to its satisfying end with issue #41, and longtime fans of the series will delight in how Kelly Thompson brings so many threads together while also pulling at new ones that will undoubtedly lead to new storylines down the line.

Captain Marvel #42 definitely feels like a tie-in to A.X.E., but it has some fun with the larger premise and keeps the focus on the delightful series cast.

At times certain characters, namely Cyclops and War Machine, look just a little off, but otherwise, the artwork is solid and especially stellar when a fight kicks into gear. I couldn't be more excited to see where this goes, and it's a perfect time for a Captain Marvel and X-Men adventure.

At times the artwork can be a bit inconsistent from page to page, but it didn't happen often enough to take me out of the adventure, and Captain Marvel and the X-Men continue to be a winning combination

This latest adventure has been wonderfully thrilling, and it is only getting better from here.

"Revenge of The Brood" is shaping up to be a standout of this already great run, and it's all building to a truly epic conclusion.

A few odd panels here and there can't deter from an otherwise fantastic issue, and this arc has been one of my absolute favorites in this already impressive Captain Marvel run.

Captain Marvel is heading towards its epic finale, and if issue #48 is any indication of what to expect, fans are in for something truly special.

Captain Marvel #49 is spectacular, and if issue #50 is this good, the series will cap off in sensational fashion.

Captain Marvel #50 is understandably heavy at times, but also brilliantly funny and hopeful, and it's a lovely conclusion to what will be considered a classic run on the character. Higher, Further, Faster indeed.

If you are a longtime fan though, you're going to absolutely love it, and if you don't pick it up you're missing out.

A new era begins in Captain Marvel #1, a series from writer Alyssa Wong, artist Jan Bazaldua, colorist Bryan Valenza, and letterer Ariana Maher, and it's off to quite the stellar start.

One of the biggest changes in Captain Marvel's new series is the comic book's supporting cast, and it's always a bit dicey to switch up something that works to try something untested. The risk is paying off though, as writer Alyssa Wong has already found a welcome rhythm for Carol Danvers and Yuna Yang.

It does seem that some big answers are on the horizon, and once some of those questions are answered, those areas of the book should fall right into place.

Captain Marvel has found its rhythm, and things should only get better from here.

The bond between Carol and Yuna has steadily coalesced over the past few issues, but it truly comes into its own in Captain Marvel #5, and Captain Marvel's world is all the better because of it.

It's all building to what looks to be a thrilling and intense final battle, and everything seems to be coming together at the perfect time.

I'm not really sure where things go from here, but that unpredictability is half the fun of this series, and things only look to get more epic from here.

While the battle unfolds on one side, Wong is also building up a delightful new duo in the Negative Zone, though the stakes are no less grand. Captain Marvel is firing on all cylinders at the perfect time.

It's always challenging to establish a new enemy, especially against a powerhouse like Captain Marvel, but Alyssa Wong has proved more than up for the challenge.

There's a lot to like about Captain Marvel #10, especially the bombastic action, but the ending just feels a bit flat.

The adventure itself is largely self contained, but I greatly enjoyed my time with it, and thank any fan of the character will too.

Cat Fight is off to a fantastic start, and I'm quite intrigued to see where this thrilling tale of thievery goes next.

Cat Fight's debut showed potential, but Cat Fight #2 lifts that ceiling tenfold and showcases just how much potential the series truly has.

The comic book's almost vintage heist vibe continues to impress, and after that last page surprise, Cat Fight #4 can't get here soon enough.

Cat Fight's vintage spy thrills and constant surprises has been a highlight of this year's pull list, and hopefully the ending will bring this adventure to a satisfying close.

Crocodile Black is captivating from the very first page, and its grip only continues to tighten as you learn more about the world, the forces at play within it, and the conflicted young man that finds himself at the center of it.

Crocodile Black's debut left me a big mystified but I couldn't turn away. Fast forward to issue #2, and the fog has cleared up a bit, leaving me no less intrigued and rather invested from here on out.

Crocodile Black gets eerier and more surreal with every issue, though everything is starting to boil over in issue #3.

Put simply, Crocodile Black is unlike anything else you're going to read this week, and that's likely not changing.

Crypt of Shadows delivers more hits than misses and is a fitting way to ring in Halloween for Marvel fans.

I truly enjoyed getting to know these oddball characters and following them into whatever fantastical scenario they get lost in. Damage Control was a truly pleasant surprise and delivered a world of charm and mayhem that I cannot wait to return to next month.

Overall the issue isn't bad, it's just okay, and that might be a letdown after such a fantastic start. Here's hoping issue #3 finds that comedic goldmine once again.

Damage Control is simply marvelous fun, and the series seems to be hitting its stride at the right time.

Hopefully, issue #5 can find that wonderful mix that drove issues 1# and #3, but there is fun to be had here. It just didn't click with me.

Damage Control saved some of its best chaos for the finale, and Gus is right in the center of all of it. That's what makes it all work though, as writers Adam F. Goldberg and Hans Rodionoff utilize him perfectly throughout in both comedic moments and moments of revelation.

They seem to be having an absolute ball creating this crazy world, and you'll have just as much fun getting lost in it.

Death Metal reigns in a bit of the crazy for issue #2, but if anything that might have made it a stronger issue overall, and we cannot wait to see what awaits us in issue #3.

Death Metal #3 doesn't shy away from the insanity that has fueled the series so far, but it injects the intrigue and heart the series needs to make sure we all care about the outcome.

This series has taken on some large concepts, but so far it's hit most of them out of the park. Hopefully, it can do the same with that last page, and the good news is it certainly has momentum on its side.

It's not the strongest issue of the series, but has its share of amazing moments, and it should be a rollercoaster ride to the finish line.

Writer Scott Snyder knows how to create an epic scene, and this issue is full of them, all pulled off brilliantly by artist Greg Capullo and colorist FCO Plascencia.

Writer Scott Snyder, artist Greg Capullo, inker Jonathan Glapion, and colorist FCO Plascencia created a massive and action-packed battle on the ground while simultaneously continuing to spotlight the heroism and leadership of Wonder Woman in a one on one with The Batman Who Laughs, and while there are many moving parts here in regards to both, they ultimately delivered a rollercoaster of emotions that any event of this scale demands.

I've enjoyed a lot of what Death Metal and the Dark Multiverse have to offer thus far, and there's even more original and interesting takes on classic characters in Dark Nights: Death Metal - The Mutliverse Who Laughs. That said, your mileage is going to vary a bit, as none of these stories really add anything significant to the core Death Metal story.

If the goal was to get me invested in "Dark Web," mission accomplished, and if the mission was to deliver one of my fave Marvel team-ups of the year? Well, looks like they knocked that out of the park too.

With a sure-to-be thrilling throwdown on the horizon, I simply can't get enough of this series, and if you're keeping up with "Dark Web" it's an absolute must.

Even if you've been missing out on "Dark Web," do yourself a favor and do not miss the excellence that is Dark Web: X-Men.

Darkhawk #1 takes its time introducing readers to Connor before the superheroics kick in, and it's that patient storytelling which allows Darkhawk's bold, new era to achieve liftoff.

This issue is a win across the board, and while the artistic style doesn't land in every single panel for me, it's a small nitpick for an otherwise fantastic issue. If you're a Darkhawk fan, this really is the reinvention you've been waiting for.

Darkhawk #3 is easily the most action-packed issue of the series so far, but it doesn't rely on that blockbuster action alone.

I loved this issue through and through, and Darkhawk continues to hit all the right notes in this so far stellar revival.

Darkhawk's conclusion is loaded with action, and while it does include some lovely character moments, the action and one heck of a final page hook is what leaves the biggest lasting impression.

There's a lot to love here about Darkhawk: Heart of the Hawk, and it sets up the character for a promising future.

This is just the beginning, but with All In DC has put its best foot forward, and the future couldn't be brighter.

DC x Sonic isn't reinventing the wheel of a crossover, but it's executing it brilliantly. If you're a fan of DC you'll find a lot to love, and if you are a Sonic the Hedgehog fan you'll be in a similar boat. If you happen to love both of them, well, prepare for a grand adventure that places fun as the top priority.

It's a fitting way to end a harrowing but phenomenal series, and what a ride it turned out to be.

Amongst all the fun is even a little bit of heartbreak, and it's that unique blend of comedy, emotion, and irreverence that makes Deadpool #1 an instant classic.

Kraven the Hunter as a villain is an interesting choice here, and so far I'm still waiting on the big hook to really draw me into this conceit. That said, everything else is just so delightful, and I still can't get enough of it.

In short, this book is perfect, and I simply can't get enough.

We finally get the big throw down between Deadpool and Bootleg Kraven, and while it delivers some glorious moments to be sure, it doesn't quite hit the highs established by previous issues.

This issue is classic Deadpool, but it's the book's sneaky heart of gold that will really make it all worthwhile.

Deadpool hasn't been this entertaining in quite some time, and this is easily one of the books I look forward to most every month.

This is the best Deadpool has been in ages, and luckily the streak doesn't show any signs of stopping.

Few creative teams are as perfect a compliment to their character as Kelly Thompson and Gerardo Sandoval are to Deadpool, and you need look no further than Deadpool #8 for a delightful example of that in action.

This issue might not hit the previous highs of the series, but it's still damn entertaining in a number of ways, and you won't regret giving it your time.

The series has been stellar and deserved to go doing its own thing and not having to tie into anything else. Still, the team pulled off a delightful finale, and this is easily one of the best Deadpool runs ever.

Deadpool/Wolverine doesn't shake the foundations of what a superhero team-up is supposed to be, but it's also an example of bringing something new to a longtime formula and creating something delightful in the process, and fans will find plenty to enjoy if they decide to tag along.

Deadpool: Black, White, & Blood came out swinging and, if this holds up, the future is quite bright for everyone's favorite merc' with a mouth.

It's time to get meta once again, as Deadpool: Black, White & Blood #2 is upon us, and impressively, the merc with a mouth manages to deliver twice in a row.

Deadpool is back with three new over-the-top adventures in Deadpool: Black, White, & Red #3, though despite the stellar talent involved in all three stories, the second one is the story that runs away with the top prize.

Overall, this is an issue that starts out strong but loses some steam over time, though there is quite a bit of fun to be had.

Death of the Venomverse #2 lives up to is title with an ever growing death toll, and the team of Cullen Bunn, Gerardo Sandoval, Jim Campbell, Victor Olazaba, and Clayton Cowles lean into the brutality and spectacle that the premise commands.

Cullen Bunn has successfully created an unstoppable monster in this hostless Carnage, but that's also made the battles just feel like truly one-sided affairs, and after a while you can't help but want the other team to get a win. The hook at the end of this issue is promising, but it also feels like it could be a bait and switch, and I really need our team to get a win or two to keep me invested.

Issue #4 starts out promisingly enough, but by page 10, those hopes start to lose steam, and by issue's end, they are all but up in flames.

Writer Cullen Bunn delivered some cool moments throughout the series, and at the end of the day the series did what it set out to do, but ultimately there just wasn't anything outside of that that I could get invested in.

Here's hoping the story can catch up to the visuals next month, because there is the promise of a cool story here.

If you're looking for the best Batman and Robin book in some time, Detective Comics is the place to be.

This has been a bit of a slow burn, but if this story can stick the landing we might have something special on our hands.

The Arkham Knight's comic debut comes to a close, though it doesn't completely reach its potential.

Batman and The Spectre might be more comfortable in the shadows, but they truly shine here.

This team up of Batman and the Spectre has resulted in a visual tour de force for Detective Comics, and part two of the adventure is just as addicting as part one.

In short, this is a fine Batman/Joker story, but don't expect any fireworks.

It doesn't happen very often but every now and then we get to see Bruce Wayne in action rather than the Batman, and as seen in the latest issue of Detective Comics, that can be quite compelling when handled the right way.

At one point while reading Detective Comics it felt like I was reading a DC version of Kong: Skull Island, which might seem odd upon first hearing it. That said, that aspect of the story was quite enjoyable taken on its own, and is probably one of the book's strongest points.

Artist Christian Duce and colorist Luis Guerrero to a lovely job bringing the battle between Deadshot and Bats to life as well, but Clarence and Hiro clearly steal the show.

This book is a testimony that it doesn't have to be all Batman all the time for Detective to be engaging, and there's real promise in what this book establishes going forward, but it isn't a must read.

When I say that no wrestling fan should miss Do A Powerbomb, that isn't hyperbole, though I would also say those who aren't as familiar with the wrestling world will find plenty to enjoy through its strong characters and compelling storytelling, and perhaps you'll find yourself intrigued by professional wrestling when all is said and done.

It can be quite challenging to follow up a superb first issue, and yet Do A Powerbomb #2 does just that, simply shrugging off pressure of any sort.

Do A Powerbomb is beyond special and I couldn't recommend it any more.

Do A Powerbomb can simply do no wrong, and issue #4 continues the series' march towards classic status.

Do A Powerbomb is as compelling as ever, and thankfully it still has even more tricks up its sleeve

Do A Powerbomb is already a modern classic and a true must-read for any wrestling fan, and I cannot wait to see how this thrilling adventure unfolds.

It's a lovely end to what has been an amazing ride, and hopefully, this isn't the last we see of this wonderfully unique wrestling world.

Hotshots is simply a blast, and here's hoping the fun doesn't stop anytime soon.

So far the charm and personality of the book haven't been overwhelmed by the Celestial elements, and hopefully, next issue's finale can continue that streak.

This creative team truly captures what makes Domino and her friends so enjoyable, and we'd happily sign up for another round.

Dragon Age fans are going to eat this up with a spoon, though we do hope there's a lot more Fenris throughout the rest of the series.

All in all, it's a lovely start, and we can't wait to see what happens to our merry crew next.

This feels like a Dragon Age adventure through and through, and I'm just counting down the days until we see this crew make its video game debut because they've already made one hell of an impression.

Writers Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir know this world inside and out, and it shows, especially in how they weave in events from Dragon Age II organically into the story.

Dragon Age: Dark Fortress might have only been 3 issues, but that didn't keep the finale from leaving quite the impression.

It is a bummer that the book feels as if it's about to take off in an awesome direction by the book's last page, but it also leaves you rather hopeful for the future, and that's not a bad thing in the slightest.

Throw in a solid hook for next issue and you've got yourself the beginning of a promising journey.

The blend of futuristic tech and high fantasy really makes this series pop visually, while the heart and endearing family unit keep all the fantastical elements grounded, making for a series that you won't want to put down.

Dryad is a breath of fresh air, and for those looking for a unique story of family set in a world of possibilities, this is most definitely a series for you.

Dryad continues to subvert expectations, and I cannot wait to see where this crazy adventure goes next.

This isn't the strongest issue of the series, and at times it feels like the story doesn't move forward enough, but it's still a book worth checking out.

Things are probably going to get worse before they get better for this family, but the nuanced family dynamics and science fiction magic mixture that Dryad offers has us in for the long haul.

Dudley Datson and The Forever Machine was not at all what I expected, but that ultimately made it even better in the end, and I think you'll find something to love here as well.

Dudley Datson and The Forever Machine #2 carries over the momentum from issue one's chaotic ending and then expands the parameters of the story 10-fold.

There's no shortage of action in Dudley Datson and The Forever Machine #3, though the book soars most when two inventors are simply having a conversation... and one of them is a dog of course.

The pace does slow though when things move into history lessons, and when the action does pick up, there are times where it just doesn't have the weight you feel the moment should carry. Things do leave off in an interesting place though, and if issue #5 can hit the ground running, we could be in for something great.

Dudley Datson and The Forever Machine might have been a bit slow at times, but I've truly enjoyed my time with the series, and the ending was a major part of that.

There were more misses than hits in this debut issue, but for Elektra fans, that first story is still very much worth checking out.

This is easily one of the most cohesive, well-rounded, and visually impressive Marvel anthology issues yet in this format, and here's hoping the momentum continues next month, because if so Elektra fans are in for a treat.

Overall, this isn't the strongest issue of the series thus far, but fans of the character will still find something to love.

While it isn't the strongest issue in the anthology, it's still satisfying and offers up a wealth of beautiful artwork to get lost in, sending the series out in style.

Road To Empyre: The Kree/Skrull War has a tall task to achieve, but it manages to stick the landing and then some by issue's end.

Granted, this is not necessary to Empyre or as a single issue in the least, but if you like Conan team-ups, you're going to enjoy this little detour quite a bit.

There's just not another comic out there like Ether, and writer Matt Kindt and artist David Rubin are impressing once again with Ether: The Disappearance of Violet Bell #1.

Few comics are as charming and visually inspired as Ether, and it shows no signs of changing anytime soon.

The main narrative takes a bit of a backseat here, but the adventure is still wildly entertaining. That said, we're hoping that next issue the story takes a step towards the main plot line, as that's the hook that got us into this adventure in the first place.

Rubin is at the top of his game here, filling each page with bright and vivid colors and dynamic action sequences that always play out differently than you're expecting, and Kindt's cast of lovable characters fill each and every scene with personality and wit.

Excellence lives up to its name in spades.

Writer Brandon Thomas creates a thrilling concoction that combines the weight of family, surviving grief, conflict of compromise, and defying insurmountable odds in a world that may be birthed from magic but feels incredibly real.

Excellence lives up to its title yet again with issue #4, and if you aren't reading this series yet please do yourself a favor and fix that ASAP.

Despite the fantastical aspects of the book, Excellence is a very personal story of how someone deals with loss, with anger, and with pain, and whether you're rooting for him or not, you'll be hooked until the very last page.

This is one of the best series in comics, and you're missing out if you don't give it a chance.

To say we recommend Excellence is an understatement, and if you give it a chance we promise you won't be disappointed.

Excellence lives up to its name once more, and if you read one book this week please make it this one.

Excellence has lived up to its name for some time now, and while the story has only grown more ambitious, it has yet to miss a single step.

There's nothing ordinary about Excellence, and as the dominoes fall this epic tale isn't slowing down in the slightest.

The individual motives and conflicts present in this awfully grey continue to evolve and expand in unexpected ways, and while you definitely will need to go back and read issue #9 to get in the proper head space, the series continues to live up to its name without fail.

Excellence has always lived up to its namesake, but its ability to consistently unearth new depth and complexity from its cast and keep you guessing is beyond impressive, and it's not yet ready to give up its crown.

After what seemed like an eternity, Excellence #12 is finally here, and I'm not kidding when I say if I could give it a 10 on a 5 point scale I absolutely would.

Fallen Angels doesn't hold back in the slightest, but if you give it a chance you'll find an X-Book unlike anything else in "Dawn of X," and that certainly has us coming back for more.

Fallen Angels won't be for everyone, but if you're looking for a better understanding of who Psylocke really is, this is definitely worth checking out.

Fallen Angels has easily been one of the most intriguing X-Books in the "Dawn of X" era thus far, but unfortunately, #3 really drops the ball.

This book started out strong, but it seems were' going in the wrong direction, and here's hoping things get back on track next issue.

If you're willing to overlook some flaws though Fallen Angels #5 has some interesting things to offer.

Fallen Angels ends without making much of an impression, and that's really a shame.

There's a lot to enjoy about this Road Trip, though it would've been even better if some of its concepts, especially regarding Reed and the family dynamic, had been pushed a bit further.

DC Comics' history is filled with cosmic tales of the Green Lanterns, but few if any have ever presented quite as compelling a concoction as Far Sector.

If you've been looking for a fresh take on the Green Lantern Corps, stop looking, because you've just found it.

Far Sector continues to be one of the most refreshing Green Lantern stories in years thanks to a compelling central conflict and dazzling visuals.

Trust us, you'll want more of Far Sector as soon as you give it a chance, because ring-slinging has rarely been this good.

Far Sector continues to be a visual tour de force, but the latest issue is building a strong case for its lead hero as well, and that is perhaps the most welcome new addition.

Far Sector has a wonderful way of translating complicated concepts into very human stories, and that is certainly the case once more in Far Sector #7.

There's simply nothing quite like Far Sector out there right now, and if you give it a chance you likely won't regret it.

If you haven't given Far Sector it's due yet, it's time to change that ASAP.

Far Sector continues to be one of the best books DC releases month in and month out, and if you're not on board you're simply missing out on a modern classic.

N.K. Jemisin hits hard from the opening page and keeps the foot on the gas from that point forward, rolling Jo, Syzn, and Marth into the chaos to try and keep the city from destroying itself.

While I hope this isn't the last we've seen of Far Sector, it is a fitting and satisfying end to one of my favorite Lantern tales ever and will be a series I recommend to anyone who will listen.

Fence: Redemption has something for everyone, and those that dive into this one of a kind world will not regret it in the least.

Feral already has its claws hooked in, and fans of Stray Dogs should absolutely add this to their wishlists.

Feral is just as gripping and heart wrenching as I imagined it to be, and is a must read every single month.

Feral continues to be one of the most thrilling rollercoaster rides in comics, and that's not changing anytime soon.

Feral is must read status every single month, and hopefully I can keep together long enough to see how it all ends.

At the cost of becoming a broken record, Feral is one of the most gut wrenching books you'll read, and yet the most impressive quality is how the series is able to convey a sense of warmth and hope amidst all of the death and chaos.

One of my favorite aspects of the issue is a conversation that dives into assumptions made about a power switch and the unfortunate realities of why it's not as easy to deal with as it might seem. Those conversations lay the groundwork for a major switch up towards the book's closing moments that promises much bigger things moving forward. While Fire & Ice: When Hell Freezes Over #1 sets the table well, the future is even brighter.
