Jul 24, 2024 |
With the excitement of the movie coming this week, I can't get enough of these two together. Deadpool and Wolverine have a friendship that knows no bound, or a bromance as Deadpool would call it. Both have high respect for each other, even if it's not said out loud. This was the perfect run to read leading up to Marvel Studios' Deadpool & Wolverine. The creative team killed it with this run! |

There's not a single negative thing I can say about the artwork of Kahhori: Reshaper of Worlds #1. With gorgeous and vibrant colors juxtaposed with the impressive amount of detail, you feel like you're on the Ancestral Plane. My personal favorite was every panel that had the villain of the comic looked larger than life with the bright, abstract effects of the space stone being used. Hats off to the artists because they made each page even more exciting to look at than the last. |

Moon Knight: Fist of Khonshu (2024) #1
Oct 16, 2024 |
Jed MacKay truly excels when writing about Moon Knight, and this is no exception to that. Throughout Moon Knight: Fist of Khonshu #1, there's an ominous feeling leading up to the reader seeing Moon Knight handle his business rather than it just being discussed. It's expertly written to keep you in a type of suspense while watching multiple moving parts happen in the story. The comic leaves off on a pretty surprising reveal that makes you realize just how dark this comic run is going to get. After reading this first installment, I'm very eager to read more of what MacKay and the rest of the creative team give us with Moon Knight. |

All in all, I'd say this was a homerun. It had so many complex elements that were tackled perfectly by the creative team. You find yourself becoming attached to the main character as well as his ghost sidekick, and finding yourself getting emotionally attached the the story itself. It's easy to lose yourself in this graphic novel. I look forward to seeing what the creative team comes up with next. |

What's a fantastic storyline without the remarkable artwork? Not this one, that's for sure. Vincenzo Carrat, Fer Sifuentes-sujo, and Ariana Maher truly put the work in for Psylocke #1 to be at its best. With Kwannon's powerset, this comic was sure to be beautiful to look at, but I wasn't ready for the fight scenes. With Kwannon's acrobatic technique juxtaposed with her agility, you can practically see her moving in the panels. The artists really showcased their talents here. |

TMNT: The Last Ronin Re-Evolution #3 does a great job with continuity of the overall story while adding in more factors giving the story even more depth. Kevin Eastman and Tom Waltz do a really great job in keeping you fully invested in each character and what the future holds for them. Having the Turtles slowly start to show their surprising powers feels like such a slow burn and is being handled masterfully. This comic really does feel like it was written with the TMNT fans in mind. I am really looking forward to seeing what's next for April, Casey, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! |

The characters are easy to connect with while still maintaining mystery as you learn more about them. I'm not usually one for sci-fi thrillers, but Dark Empty Void #1 was fantastic all around.

They must keep the peace between the humans and the mutants, and in order for them to do that, they must go after some of the most diabolical mutants the world has seen. |

From Asami's backstory to the little bits of lore we get about MacRaith, it all left you wanting to know more about the characters. I really enjoyed the unspoken attraction between MacRaith and Asami, which was written perfectly. It wasn't written obviously and was much more of a vibe you could pick up on. |

Daredevil: Woman Without Fear (2024) #2
Aug 21, 2024 |
Erica Schultz has written the Woman Without Fear quite a few times, and I feel she nails each time. Everything from the inner dialogue of Elektra to the banter between her and Punisher was exciting to read. Daredevil: Woman Without Fear #2 is excitement all the way through. I just wish I had more of it to read, but I suppose that tells you how fun this comic is. This run has been exciting and fresh so far and I can't wait to read the third installment. |

Sep 25, 2024 |
Another exciting issue of Daredevil: Woman Without Fear! Another issue with Elektra in Madripoor, which signifies that she's doing this on her own and not to expect Matt Murdock to join her. Erica Schultz writes Elektra really well, and shows her conflicted feelings via her inner dialogue in a way that makes you feel connected with her. I really enjoyed seeing the side characters in Daredevil: Woman Without Fear #3 like Silvermane, Count Nefaria, and another character Elektra seeks assistance from. |

Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider (2024) #3
Jul 31, 2024 |
Something I really enjoyed was seeing Gwen in such a vulnerable space and having her see her dad come to her to comfort her. While it's been known that she misses her life back on her former universe, it was heart wrenching to see how much she truly missed her dad. It was beautifully handled by Stephanie Phillips. With each installment, the writing shows just how talented a writer Phillips is. There's so many complex factors in this run, and they're all handled gracefully and with ease. |

Aug 28, 2024 |
As a Stephanie Phillips fan, I think she does a fantastic job with Gwen and her multiversal problems in the Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider run. The fourth installment felt like it was more for continuity rather than storyline events. I like seeing how the other Spiders are handling Gwen and the problems that have been brought with her arrival in 616. I think it all ties in very well together for the overall story. Another thing I like it seeing Gwen having to deal with the classic Spider-Man villains. All in all, Phillips has me hooked on this run and I'm excited to see where it goes. |

Gwen is on the run from the police with Chameleon! While the police our searching the skies for a swinging Spider-Hero, Gwen is underground in the sewers. Chameleon is in pretty bad shape with his powers malfunctioning and Gwen is trying to be of help. While she's trying to get to the bottom of the problem of Chameleon's powers, they're attacked by a familiar Spidey foe. With the assist of Chameleon's powers, they're able to get away. Little do they know, they're being tracked. The people that hired Chameleon to hunt down Gwen now have their coordinates. So that means Gwen is on the run from not only the good guys, but the bad guys too. |

Von Randal adds a whole new depth to the story with him fantastic art. I had been loving the artwork of Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider, but I really felt he added so much more. There's a whole new grittiness to the comic that I really goes really well with the characters and the story. The panel that show Black Tarantula and Spider-Gwen fighting were beautifully done and easily some of my favorite parts of the comic. |

Out of the Venom War run, I'd say this one is the most eye catching. With the zombiote attack, it looked eery and terrifying, as it should. But with other parts, such as scenes that involved Carnage, there was an impressive amount of detail in each panel. The dark colors with the bursts of bright red added a lot of impact to each page. You could really feel the tone of the comic just by the first few pages. |

The chemistry shows loudly, which really showcases Jed MacKay's talent as a writer. There's some humorous banter between the characters, which felt really casual and done with ease. The X-Men played off each other so well, that it really felt like they've been a team longer than two issues. |

The artists of X-Men have done a masterful job throughout this entire run, and the sixth installment is no exception. The impressive amount of detail that goes into each panel is astounding. But add that with the toned down colors with the occasional burst of color, and it's picture perfect. I think the artwork of X-Men #6 matches the tone incredibly well, so much so that it only elevates the already entertaining storyline. |

So far, X-Force #1 has me hooked with how compelling the comic was. It gave just enough to keep you wanting more. I enjoyed the dialogues between each character, especially Deadpool with the X-Force members. I feel Geoffrey Thorne has a firm grasp on the characters to their core and it shows very well in this first installment. The writing was very well balanced with action, dialogue, and even some humor throughout the comic. I can't wait to see X-Force #2! |

Admittedly, I didn't find X-Force #2 quite as strong as its predecessor, but it was still really entertaining. The character's are written with great chemistry which shows throughout the comic. So far, I'm really enjoying this X-Force team together as I feel they work really well together. Sage was a fun focal point of the comic, as it's a magic versus technology plot. All in all, I think this was a good continuation of the X-Force series, which makes me excited to see what's next. |

I found Exceptional X-Men #2 to be a pretty fun read that added great new characters to the story. Alex and Thao seem to have a lot of depth in their characters and I look forward to learning more about them. It's interesting to see Kate want to have this normal and relatable life, while being one of the strongest mutants. Of course, we know that that just isn't feasible for Kate, but it's nice to see her try. I think the writing perfectly illustrates just how badly she wants a normal life and how frustrated she is that she keeps getting pulled back into mutant problems. |

The plot was exciting with a surprise attack from the Sinister Squadron, along with Madame Web's powers not working, and not even mentioning the surprise twists in the comic. Something I really enjoyed seeing all of the personalities come out from the members of the Spider-Society through their own dialogue. I think it would be really difficult to write a comic about so many different characters who are so connected, but Alex Segura really did well with it. Personally, I would have liked more explanation on a couple things, but I'm sure that'll happen in due time. |

The reveal of who the big bad is was something I didn't see coming, and was a really creative idea in my opinion. I'm excited to see where this run goes as so much has already happened in the first two installments. |

The artwork continues to impress in Spider-Society #3. The vibrant colors juxtaposed with the darker backgrounds really make each panel pop. Each member of the Spider-Society looks absolutely gorgeous in their own right. Something I really loved was the look of the Web of Life and Destiny towards the end. With the amount of detail that's used in each piece of the Web, it really is beautiful to see when it's combined with the bright blues and the reds of the Spider-Men. |
