Its safe to say that I have high expectations for this series. Although I am unsure about the main plotline, I have faith in Gillens ability to write Star Wars after his Darth Vader run. I would recommend jumping on Doctor Aphra as soon as possible, considering the series is quite young. I would temper my expectations, but hey it is Star Wars after all.

Readers will be delighted to know that there are some cool reveals towards the end of the issue in both storylines. Johns sets up the rest of the run quite well as we do get to see Grail in the present. On the whole, thisis a great chapter in Geoff Johnss saga. It does require the reader to be caught up on Justice League, so I would not recommend this issue as a good point to jump into Johnss run.

Overall, Ody-C #6 is more Ody-C; if Ody-C is too heavy and you prefer your comic books with levity, I would not recommend this issue. However, if you are an admirer of mythology and enjoy reading about social issues, Ody-C is right up your alley. Keep in mind that this issue serves as the perfect jumping on point as the first five issues are connected to this one only by theme and by setting. Fraction and Ward have once again created a literary masterpiece that increases in scope without losing any of its humor and intellect.

Overall, King Tiger is an interesting introduction to a new series, however, it is only an introduction by definition. Readers who know these characters should definitely pick up this issue, while other readers do not have a significant reason for doing so, aside from the interesting theme and the amazing colors.

The issue reminds me of Sin City in some ways there are intertwined narratives about problems in society. While Material is not as depressing as Sin City, it definitely has some of its charm. I cannot wait to see how this series turns out and I recommend this issue as an interesting read.

On the whole, Pisces #2 somewhat acts like the calm before a storm; it expertly opens up avenues for the story while also developing Dillons character. I am honestly intrigued by the story and I definitely recommend the issue as a must read.

That I loved the issue is an understatement, but I hope that the story arc can maintain the level of action, exposition, foreshadowing, and anticipation. I would hate to see such a brilliant idea take the same route as Zero Year. Wytches might be great, but it seems that Scott Snyder might have outdone himself with Endgame. Batman #35 is definitely worth picking up, and is easily accessible for newer readers as well, as it marks the beginning of something special.

The issue is succinct. Snyder's stories tend to meander and go all over the place, but this issue was so self contained. It would definitely be a purchase for people who want their perfect collections. Furthermore, people who couldn't get a chance to jump into Zero Year could easily pick up this great one-shot for a read. I liked the issue as a whole and would recommend that you get it.

If there was one aspect of this issue that I disliked, it would be the art. Somehow, the art just doesnt immerse me in the world as much as it should. However, this problem isnt very prominent as the story keeps changing the setting and focus. This effectively keeps the reader interested in the story.

Similar stories render the plot devices in this issue so hackneyed, that it seemed almost humorous at one point. The food turning into dung in a characters mouth made me wonder whether this was a lazy effort or a witty comment(although all evidence points to the former).

The issue also introduces many elements involving our team of The American Choppers. Malachai and Ethan Nicolle are adept at creating Axe Cop material, but I am still amazed at their propensity to innovate. The younger brother definitely has a bright future in the industry.

The problem with The Last Fall is that the reader isnt as invested in the protagonist as he/she should be. The story needs a major event to bring about this change, as The Last Fall shows a lot of potential to be a good series.

The third and final story is Journey into Wonder. This one deals with fantasy themes and plays around with medieval honor. The story by Bill Parente is not outstanding but doesnt disappoint. It moves slowly at first but quickly becomes somewhat interesting. Grendel, a dwarf, has to prove himself to his king that he is worthy of knighthood. A classic story, Journey into Wonder is predictable at the very least. Ken Barrs art keeps it lively as he is able to exude a sense of urgency with his panels. Journey into Wonder just doesnt cut it for me.

The introduction of the Y2K killer was enjoyable, as the reader could enjoy a feeling of omniscience as he was stalkingour protagonists.

Marek Oleksickis art captures the Darkness on some pages, but on others, the art doesnt have the same effect. The art is mostly rife with shadows and hues of dark colors. In some panels, the art appears blocky and filled with unnecessary pencil strokes.

The entrance of the Supervisor was one highlight of this issue. The purpose of mankind and their existence was dealt with beautifully, for a narrative closely tied to such themes.
