Oct 19, 2017 |
If this issue is any indication, Batman will continue to be a great book. The combination of King, Jones, and Bellaire will be something great. King has a great grasp on all of these characters and Jones/Bellaire combo will be killer. |

My expectations were high for this book, as they should be, and it didn't disappoint. I feel every Bat story this team has told has been something different. From the Court of Owls to Endgame, this team brings something different to the table every time. The Last Knight on Earth is a Bat story I have never seen before, and I can't wait to explore this world with Batman. |

May 9, 2018 |
White Knight was a series that took its time to get started, but once it found its footing it really took off. That's something that most miniseries, or any title, can take away from this book, and that is finishing on a strong note. |

But most of all, it's a relevant story for any person of color that has struggled with expressing their love for a person of the same sex. |

Bitter Root #1
Nov 14, 2018 |
The Harlem Renaissance is the perfect setting for this book. It was thriving time for the arts in Harlem, but racism was still very much alive. It's the racism and cruelty that give life to the Jinoo in this series, and it was on full display in this first issue. Whether it be two white cops or KKK members in the south, this series will be filled with plenty of enemies for the Sangeyre family to battle with. Cullen and Berg got a taste of what's to come, and it will certainly not be pretty. |

Doomsday Clock #7
Oct 2, 2018 |
Doomsday Clock continues to impress and with seven issues down, no one should expect the quality to take a dip. Johns continues to shine and Frank keeps showing why he's one the best artist in the industry. Gary Frank could ask for three months to draw each issue, and I would still buy this book because the readers can see where the extra time is going. From Dr. Manhattan's appearance to Mime's facial expression when Batman shows up, Frank is putting the extra to some use. I know some would like another artist to work on the book so the book could come out more frequently, but why tinker with greatness? If it ain't broke, don't fix it because Johns and Frank are an all-star team and are delivering an all-star performance. |

Jul 4, 2018 |
I am enjoying this series from Burnham, Schoening, and Delgado, and I would expect nothing less from this team. The character depictions are on point, and it has the awesome art to pair with it. This series will continue to excel. The Ghostbusters have a special place in my heart because I have been a fan since I was five years old, but they continue to evolve. That's why I continue to read this series, and that's why everyone else should too. If the Real Ghostbusters aren't for you, maybe the Prime Ghostbusters are, and if not them, don't worry because there are plenty to choose from and you will definitely find the Ghostbusters that are to your liking in this series. |

The first arc is a wrap, and it wrapped up with a nice little bow on top. The wait to finally enter the barn was worth the wait. There are other things going on in this issue besides Father Wilfred going through the barn, but it was the focal point of the issue. Dr. Xu and Norton make an appearance, but what they are doing has more to do with next arc because they are trying to rebuild the black barn. Clara believes her brother is still alive and will be searching for him. Lemire left a lot to explore for future issues and can't wait to take that journey in the upcoming issues. |

Jook Joint #1
Oct 3, 2018 |
I've been waiting for this issue since it was announced a few months back, and it was worth the wait. When I read the first two pages of this book, I read it in Tamia's voice. She's a singer and did a song on the album Q's Jook Joint which was produced by Quincy Jones. Weird correlation, but that's where my mind went. Even with a man having his jaw ripped off and another man having his own balls fed to him, great visuals brought to life by Alitha Martinez and Shari Chankhamma, this book manages to still stay grounded in reality. Domestic violence should not be taken lightly, and Tee Franklin is doing her best to make sure we take a hard look at it because it is still happening way too often. |

Mister Miracle continues to be a splendid series, and the ending was something to witness. If you know just a tad of Scott Free's backstory, then the ending will make even more sense. King and Gerads do go over it slightly in the first or second issue. Regardless, it is still a cliffhanger to behold. King and Gerads are the dynamic duo of comics right now, and I can't to see how they bring it all to an end in a few months. |

Once again, these two killed it on this issue. I can't wait to see what Big Barda and Mister Miracle have planned for Darkseid. I always love seeing these two lovers come together and work out their problems. Like his suicide attempt, which happened in the first issue, it was nice to see it discussed because it did take a toll on Big Barda. Oh, it was nice to see the Boom Tube compared to the Uber app, I thought that was quite funny. Only two issues left, so don't miss out on what I'm sure will be an ending to remember. |
