The Black Monday Murders #2 |
Sep 21, 2016 |
The Black Monday Murders #2 is as a good a second chapter as you will find in any title. It builds on the groundwork of the first issue and expands upon it without giving too much away but giving enough to make you want more. |

The Black Monday Murders #1 |
Aug 15, 2016 |
A new Hickman book is an event and The Black Monday Murders #1 is no exception. It's narrative is engaging from the very first page and grips you tightly until the very last page. It's greatest victory, however, is that it leaves you wanting more. |

Stunning visuals sadly don't make up for a muddled narrative with little too hook you in. |

Black Science #18 |
Dec 9, 2015 |
Black Science #18 is not for the faint hearted. It explores issues that some may find harrowing and hit too close to home, but it does so with care and not for the shock value. An excellent book. |

Codename Baboushka: The Conclave of Death #1 |
Oct 12, 2015 |
A tried and tested formula that sadly offers nothing new to the genre. Lacklustre artwork doesn't help matters. |

Spread #10 |
Oct 12, 2015 |
Spread remains a strong title both in plot and characterisation. Visually impressive in the grand set pieces and delicate enough in the more intimate moments. |

Wolf #3 |
Oct 12, 2015 |
The series remains consistent in both storytelling and its visual style. An issue that pushes the plot forward and reveals a few answers to earlier threads. If you are new to the title it may be a little hard to just pick up and feel involved. |

Phonogram: The Immaterial Girl #2 |
Sep 26, 2015 |
The blend of iconic 80's pop videos with Emily's bleak morality tale is not only an interesting move, but a truly inspired one. |

The Wicked + The Divine #14 |
Sep 26, 2015 |
The comic book equivalent of Danny Tenaglia's remix of Green Velvet's 'Flash'. Familiar but altogether something new, something dark, something twisted. A creative experiment that more than pays off. |

Wolf #2 |
Aug 26, 2015 |
A solid second issue, one that focuses more on character building as opposed to pushing the narrative forward. A good mixture of supernatural intrigue and biting humour. |

Phonogram is a very unique book. It's universe is vibrant and filled with fully realised characters. If you are a fan of the creators than you will not be disappointed. If you aren't a fan, read this and you soon will be. |

A grim chapter in this underwater epic. Strong emotional and spiritual concepts are laid bare for exploration. It's dark stuff but still engrossing reading. |

Wolf #1 is an intriguing book. Hard boiled noir meets gothic horror. There's a lot going on but it is never overwhelming. |

It is heavy hitting stuff that just so happens to be wearing the disguise of an excellent science fiction romp. A gripping family drama that excels at keeping the science fiction dressing just as important. |

An underwhelming addition to the series that promised a lot at the beginning and has yet to deliver. This may be a title that will work better as a trade than single issue. |

Nameless #3 |
Apr 14, 2015 |
A bit of a mind bender that lacks a bit of character to broaden out its mythos. Still a bit not sure of what the book actually is yet but feel that we are at least on a track to finding out. |

Wytches #5 |
Apr 1, 2015 |
If there was ever a book that makes you feel dirty then it is Wytches. Snyder, Jock and Hollingsworth have crafted a tale that gets under the skin and makes it crawl. Wytches #5 is a solid entry into the cannon and leaves you wanting the resolution. |

Spread #6 |

The end of an arc but without the resolution. What Spread #6 does well is making that no matter by giving the reader a high dose of gruesome action and some nice set up for the next arc. |
