All in all, Archon #01 makes for an interesting read and leaves the reader in a curious position, wanting answers from the next issue. The bad can easily be solved in later issues as I'm sure that fantasy D&D intro must connect to the main storyline somehow. Gareth has great potential for compelling character interactions and believable reactions for an "Average Joe" being exposed to real-life fantasy.

As a fan of Assassin's Creed I am very excited for this series and am truly impressed with it's latent potential. Issue one rushes through the "need-to-know"s a little bit, but solidly sets up the series for a more natural pacing moving forward. The characters have the potential for entertaining interaction and Charlotte has almost unlimited potential for development with all the different factors shaping this book. I have high hopes for Charlotte's entertainment factor as well.

The series shows promise in its art and it's premise, but issue #1 let me down. I can only hope that my instinct after that cliffhanger is right and issue #2 gives us the clarity #1 denied us.

As a "New-Who" Whovian, my only real experience with different Doctor's meeting was in the "The Day of the Doctor" 50th anniversary special. Though even with only that to go on, I love how the Doctor's interact in this issue. Their personalities clashing and the shared disbelief in how they, Ten and Eleven, could become the twelfth Doctor: it does my nerdy heart good.

True to the spirit of Doctor Who this series ends like a fine episode of the show, even if a little flat. Our characters are adapted properly, given a healthy respect, and feel natural interacting with each other. All-in-All worth the read for fans.

This is thrilling start to new adventures with a great incarnation of the Doctor. In this first plot line we get to learn more about the mysterious War Doctor and see the eleventh in a rare position: Without a clever plan! This is definitely the kind of ride I want to take with the Doctor. Consider my ticket punched!

A excellent starting point and poetic plot line coupled with a brilliant cliffhanger and that distinct Doctor Who feel.

A solid entry into the realm of Dragon Age. There's magic, blood, and just a touch of that "morality" feel that the games, as well as Bioware as a whole" are so famous for. Our characters a well formed and have great chemistry together, forming a believable bond. The story portion stops short right at the end but hey, that's what next issue's for.

A great introduction to a fascinating character, a lucha vigilante POC. We really get inside his head and tackle what it means to be a hero. A little skimpy on plot, but has great potential.

This issue brings the funny just as awesomely as the first and the nostalgia is far from dead. Invader Zim's strong start continues unhindered.

As per usual this issue is a side-splitting blast. The comedy is both great, but deep. Just like any good satire/parody should be. Sure you'll get your laughs, but you just might question society and your lot in life. Or nah.

Princeless: Raven, The Pirate Princess is a delightful jaunt into feminist pirates. The story, characters, and setting all feel natural and flow together nicely. Issue #3 is easy for newcomers to jump in and the cliffhanger should leave you wanting issue #4 as soon as you can get your hands on it.

I can't hate on Rat Queens. The humor is great, the action is on point, and our characters build up little by little. We may not be in to the main course of this arc yet, but it feels like we're building up for something awesome.

Rat Queens continues to deliver in this latest installment leaving us anxious for more as the Hannah-centric story plays out. The character interactions are as great as ever and despite everyone else doing their own thing the issue reads well without losing too much momentum.

All-in-all this is an ok issue with the potential to be a pretty decent one with foreknowledge (At least read #13). The main characters seem to relish in their 'Badassery", but give the impression of being well rounded (hopefully back issues confirm this). The end sets up proper foreshadowing making future issues enticing while the rest of the story begs you to pick up back issues to fully appreciate it.

A great jumping on point for new readers complete with relatable, well-rounded characters and an easily digestible one issue story.

Arc 3 kicks off with a BANG. More of the same Japanglish goodness, character depth, and cultural complexity we've come to expect. I love it. I'm lovin' it. I NEED MOAR!
