Amber Blake #1

Apr 6, 2019

With all of this in mind, I can say I had a blast reading this comic. It's found a way to make the story feel original and does a fantastic job with creating a story that will have people eager for more. My only fear is that this will quickly fall into a generic action story that does no justice for the female lead. Regardless, I'm very much looking forward to the next issue.

Auntie Agatha's Home For Wayward Rabbits #3

Jan 13, 2019

With this being the third issue, it would make sense for things to start getting closer to a major event. I'm excited to see how Julie and the rest of the rabbits defend their home. The humor, art style, and continuous intriguing storyline guarantees that I'll be reading the next issue. I look forward to see how the comic goes on from here.

Auntie Agatha's Home For Wayward Rabbits #5

Mar 15, 2019

Even though it's upsetting to see that this is the penultimate issue, I'm looking forward to seeing how this story ends. I really enjoyed reading this issue. I'm normally not a big fan of stories ending on cliffhangers but the way it was done in this comic only increases my excitement for the finale. Both Giffen and Benjamin have created a story that many readers will not only love but will genuinely enjoy reading.

Auntie Agatha's Home For Wayward Rabbits #6

Apr 18, 2019

Overall, I'm confident in saying that I've enjoyed not only reading this comic but the entire series. The creators blend elements of fantasy, real-world issues, humor, and a bit of the absurd together to create a comic that anyone could enjoy. The issue is a perfect conclusion to the series, tying everything together and ending in a definite manner. Neatly wrapping everything up in a limited series could hurt the story overall, but since the issue focuses on the theme of family, it provides a heart-warming feeling that will surely leave readers happy. I will surely be re-reading the series and will definitely recommend it to others.

Bad Luck Chuck #3

May 30, 2019

I can say with full confidence that I had a blast reading this comic. On top of the unique portrayal of causing bad luck as a power, the overall story is just fantastic. The creative team has done a phenomenal job in creating an intriguing series. There's no doubt that the story is about to pick up very quickly.

Big Hero Six: The Series #1

Nov 13, 2019

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Big Hero 6: The Series #1. It built upon the already established elements in previous material while also promising to build more in this universe. The ending of the main story sets up the second issue in a much more traditional sense by adding a cliffhanger but it's very effective. The short story at the end was quite funny, especially since it shows a new version of BayMax. I look forward to seeing how the rest of the series plays out.

Books of Magic (2018) #4

Jan 30, 2019

I really enjoyed reading this issue and I'm continuously impressed with every installment of the series. Part of what I like about the series is that the character of Tim's reminds me so much of Harry Potter. Since Gaiman's work was released first, it wouldn't surprise me if some inspiration from Tim was placed upon Harry. Regardless, this series continues to give a great story and will undoubtedly continue to do so.

I have been enjoying all the issues of this series that have been released. It's found its place in a shared universe and found ways to provide a memorable story. The next few issues look to be the most intense of this revival series. I'm counting down the days until the next installment.

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations #8

Mar 30, 2020

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Volume 8. It took a while for me to get fully invested in the series, especially since the first few chapters were a retelling of the movie that had come out a few years ago. However, I got fully invested once Kara was revealed and Kawaki was finally introduced. His character is showing progression throughout this volume and I'm sure he'll continue to grow.

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations #9

Aug 16, 2020

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Volume 9. As I mentioned in my review of Volume 8, I was skeptical about starting the series. However, I'm fully invested in what's happening, especially after the fight between Naruto and Delta. The artwork and storytelling throughout their fierce battle went above and beyond in displaying emotion and just how dangerous the situation was. Kawaki's training marks the start of his inevitable fight with Boruto, which is something I'm excited to see how it progresses. The major revelation sets up a darker turn for the series that will surely have people talking. I haven't been this excited about a manga series for quite some time.

Coffin Bound #1

Aug 4, 2019

Overall, I really enjoyed reading the first issue of Coffin Bound #1. Aside from the part of the comic in the middle that was a bit confusing, it did an incredible job setting up the direction that the entire series will take. Given the way the comic ended, learning more about Izzy will surely be a highlight of the series. The sinister force that's after her showed just how terrifying and dangerous he can be. It looks like Izzy and The Vulture are in for quite a road trip and I will surely be picking up future issues.

Dead End Kids #1

May 27, 2019

Dead End Kids #2

Aug 11, 2019

Overall, the creative team has once again delivered a phenomenal issue. The friendship is already starting to have issues without Ben to lead. I'm hoping that they'll come out of this but it wouldn't surprise me if the challenges only get bigger from here on out. The ending of Dead End Kids #2 surely elevates the stakes of the entire series as a whole. It propels the story to become an even bigger mystery and makes it clear that Amanda, Tank, and Murphy are not safe. I look forward to reading the next issue of this amazing comic series.

Dead End Kids #3

Sep 18, 2019

This has easily become one of the best comic book series that I have read in 2019. The manner in which it deals with themes of death, loss of innocence, and friendship was incredibly well done. Gogol created a comic that I was able to dive in and walk out feeling amazed.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba #13

May 21, 2020

Overall, I really enjoyed reading Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Volume 13. The change of pace in this volume to include more action was a major highlight. With Demon Slayer as the series' title, it's hard to imagine that it doesn't involve more than its fair share of action... The series' aesthetic and artwork continues to be a major element that carries the series forward. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next.

Dial H For Hero (2019) #2

Apr 24, 2019

I had an absolute blast in continuing to read this action packed coming-of-age story. It does an incredible job in making Miguel question himself rather than thrusting him into the role as hero without any dilemmas. Things are most likely going to pick up fast, especially because of the way the issue left off. I'm looking forward to reading the next issue and will definitely look at the previous incarnations of heroes.

Jun 26, 2019

Things are finally starting to get serious for Miguel. The ending will surely leave readings eager to find out what Miguel will do next. His journey to becoming a true hero is about to take the next step. I'm hoping that the doesn't sidetrack the incredible plot development that his character has been given. Even though he still thinks that Superman can only help him, Miguel's about to find out that he needs to be his own hero.

It's exciting to know that the comic series was extended for another six issues. Although this issue felt like the story was wrapping up, the end made makes it clear that there's so much more to be told. Things are looking quite grim for both Summer and Miguel. I'm excited to see how they manage to deal with their respective dilemmas and what steps they take to become heroes. I have no doubt that the creative team will deliver another phenomenal six issues.

Nov 8, 2018

However, I am going to continue with the comic and highly recommend it if you are a Doctor Who fan and are enjoying what they've been doing so far with series 11. It captures the essence of the current series completely. As a comic fan and a fan of the series, I'm excited to see where it goes.

Overall, I really enjoyed this issue. There were moments where I wasn't quite sure where the story arc was going, but it all wrapped up nicely in the end. What really captured my attention was the ending, setting up the story forThe Flash Annual #2. This isn't the last time that we see the Force powers being talked about. Barry will surely be in the fight of his life when the time comes for him to deal with it.

The creative team has done a phenomenal job at capturing the character's essence but also finding ways to revamp his story. I look forward to reading the rest of this arc going forward.

Flash (2016) #71

May 22, 2019

The creative team has done a phenomenal job carrying the same essence that was established during the first chapter of this fresh take on The Flash's origin. With the story not fully revealing too much, it's still a perfect time for new readers to jump in and get a fantastic story of Barry's early days of being a superhero. It's hard to think of where this story can go, but there's little doubt that this has been one of the most innovativeFlash stories told in recent history.

Flash (2016) #72

Jun 12, 2019

The creative team has delivered yet another phenomenal chapter to this Year One story arc. Barry found the necessary confidence to face off against his first major villain. He's also able to spend time with those he cares for and balance his life. But the way this issue ended will surely make Barry realize that not everything about being a hero is simple. It'll be interesting to see both what sort of lessons Barry learns from this and what sort of difficulties will arise from the introduction of another major Flash rouge.

Things are getting even more serious and I am honestly on the edge of my seat waiting to read what happens next. The creative team is continuously making a memorable Year One story. Barry's character has been written well by Williamson throughout the entire arc. It gives an interesting new take on a hero that has made such an impact on my life. The ending has set up quite an interesting challenge for Barry to deal with. But one thing is for sure, this will be one of the fiercest challenges of his entire career of being The Flash.

But I for one am very grateful to have read each installment in the arc as it progressed.

Jul 24, 2019

I could not have imagined a better way for this Year One arc to have ended. It not only retold the story of Barry Allen from a different perspective but it helps embody who he is as The Flash. The ending of the arc sets up the future dangers that Barry will have to deal with. From the looks of things, he'll be in for quite a challenge as many sinister forces will be coming after him. The short snippet at the end teases a deadly alliance that will prove to be quite challenging for Barry.

From this comic, it seems as if future stories will have a much darker tone. Plus, Barry still has to deal with the Force dilemma he learned about in issue #63. This might be Barry's toughest challenge yet. And with the announcement of aYear One story for Barry, there's definitely a lot to look forward to this year.

Invasion From Planet Wrestletopia #1

Sep 21, 2018

Ultimately, I recommend this for both wrestling and non-wrestling fans. Wrestling hasn't really been a topic that has been written in comics for a few years now, so seeing something like this brings me joy. Non-wrestling fans can get a small glimpse into the world of wrestling but also get a fantastic story that will surely bring tons of action. I will continue to review any issues from this series as they come out.

The comedic moments add so much more to the story rather than taking me away from what I'm reading. The dynamic that exists between Carol and Jessica is strong and quickly established as an important element within the issue.

No One Left To Fight #1

Jul 2, 2019

After just one issue, this has quickly become one of my favorite current comic series. Aside from the inspiration, the premise is what really drew me in. There are countless stories about the glory days of heroes but rarely do we get glimpses of what happens after everything is done. I'm not quite sure what to expect out of the rest of the series, but this struggle about what to do after fulfilling a major purpose in life is an intriguing theme.

It's such an intricate story with phenomenal artwork from Ossio that tackles life after your purpose in life has been served. I'm hoping that the next issues go into this even more.

I'm sad that I have to wait for the next issue to come. It's a perfect example of how to do an adaptation of a major piece of literature into a comic but also finds a way to make it its own. This coming-of-age story will surely have readers invested and will hopefully find ways to relate to it. It's incredible to see creators caring about these sort of stories. I'll anxiously wait for the next installment.

The dynamic of this blossoming relationship is handled well and many readers could definitely relate to it. Since the series focuses on LGBTQ characters, it shows that stories that are centered around members of the community matter enough to be told. It gives me hope that telling stories like these will continue to be accepted and praised. This is a comic series I wholeheartedly recommend.

The issue also includes stories that focus on other characters, which erases any belief that this would just focus on a romantic relationship blossoming and the formation of a basketball team. It will surely be interesting to see where the series goes from here.

The fact that they need to team up with Brakebills students who may not be as excited for them to be there adds this new dynamic within this universe.

Quentin's story focuses on magic and quests while Alice's point-of-view is much more grounded. It's the perspective that follows a more logical approach rather than just accepting all of these magical elements as they are. I'm hoping that the other two books get similar adaptations since this one proved to add more to a set story.

The Walking Dead #186

Dec 8, 2018

It'll be interesting to see how the conflict is handled in later issues. I hope it doesn't lead to another war. At this point, I think the comic has overstayed its welcome. It would be interesting to see more communities coming together and rebuilding society a bit more. There could still be conflict and even wars, but the fact that every new community they meet seems to be evil is getting old. The series suffers from having been around since 2003. I'm just not sure how much more story there's left to tell.

The Walking Dead #187

Jan 12, 2019

Overall, I'm still not quite content with the direction the comic is going. This could be because of how long it's been running. But you can only take on so many groups before it starts getting old. Hope this saga adds more ingenuity.

Welcome to Wanderland #4

May 28, 2019

With this being the end of the mini-series, readers will most likely be satisfied with its ending. Whether it's the humor, the further development of its central characters, the representation of gays characters, or just simply wanting to know how the story ends, readers will definitely be in for a treat. This series has found a way to include coming-of-age tropes and combine it with fairytale elects to create a phenomenal series.

Witchlight #1

Apr 2, 2020

Overall, I really enjoyed readingWitchlight. Zabarsky also did an incredible job in regards to the world-building and the artwork fits perfectly with the story. I only wish that there were more stories about Sanja and Lelek that I could read.

WWE #24

Jan 2, 2019

However, this comic made me completely rethink the entire feud. Fans only get to see a part of their feud and we can be quick to just rush and make opinions. It reminds that there's a lot more to wrestling than what fans see. This comic does a perfect job at reminding me why I love wrestling and why I should be proud to be a fan. I'll surely be tunning into more of these comics. Overall, I'm very happy that I was able to read this comic. Regardless of how I felt about having to revisit the feud, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I'm happy that wrestling comics are still being made and that it's finally getting the recognition that it deserves.

WWE: Forever

Feb 3, 2019

Overall, I had an absolute blast reading this comic. It serves as a reminder to see where wrestling was 30 years ago and how far its come since then. It focused on the legends that made this possible, which is great to see. I look forward to see what other stories this series will tell.

You Brought Me the Ocean #1

Jun 16, 2020

This graphic novel does an incredible job of supporting representation for the LGBTQ community, which correlates with June being Pride Month. Maroh's artwork adds a lot of emotion to the story that elevated the graphic novel to new heights. The writing feels personal, which is something I'm sure many readers will appreciate.
