I wanted to like this book more than I did. The idea was so unique I wanted to get behind it. Unfortunately, while the basic idea is interesting, this first issue was a hot mess that left my brain and eyes reeling.Maybe things will improve in later issues, but I feel that not even The Power of Grayskull could helpSeeley and Williams save this one.

Batman #50 is modern day snake oil in the form of a comic book. All the beauty in the preceding pages was sullied and rendered emotionally worthless by the ending.

There was nothing in this issue that made me want to urgently run to the comic shop and get the next issue. However, the story teased for Thor #5 (yup, talk about a mega future tease) with what appears to be a Cyberpunk Mr Miyagi Wolverine may be interesting.

Snyder's script drags in some places, such as when Tank Girl Wonder Woman delivers a heavy exposition dump. Capullo's artwork looks good, apart from the unnaturally unpleasant Amethyst cave. Still, the premise and execution are interesting enough to make me curious about the next issue.

If you are a fan of Felicia Hardy and her exploits, you will not be disappointed by this book. And if you've never heard of the Black Cat, this isn't a bad way to be introduced.

All in all, there is a lot here to entertain you if you are looking for a fun, scary twist on your favorite DC Comics heroes this Halloween. I hope we get a sequel next year, maybe this time incorporating the villains as well.

Maybe something will happen in later issues that will prove me wrong and make me reconsider whether or not this series is a must-read. Either way, if I miss an issue, I will not fret. Still, it is worth a look at if you are a Deadpool fan. Just don't expect anything too deep.

A trippy, dark vision that explores PTSD in a twisted way as well as how some people cannot handle power. It is worth a peek.

If you are not a fan of the show or have never seen it, you may not enjoy this comic. Still, it is a load of fun. The jokes fly by rapidly and are very well written. My personal favorite involved Totino's Pizza Rolls and Kinga's efforts to work product placement into the story. If you are a fan of the show, I suggest giving it a look-over.

It's cynical yet darkly hilarious. The story is great, but the artwork is jarring and unsettling. While this fits the tone of the story, it is still harsh on the eyes. Still, this series is worth a look for the story alone.

The jokes fly fast in their introduction, as does the rest of the issue. Giving the Wonder Twins some personality beyond the cheerfully earnest ones they had in the 1970's has made these characters honestly engaging.

You definitely do not miss this one, folks. It is very well done.

Those who do not know Carol's character will get a crash course on why she is one of the most powerful and respected super heroes in the Marvel Universe, while veteran Carol Corps members will get more of what they love.

All in all, DCeased: A Good Day To Die is an excellent companion piece to the main story.

In the end, this issue was a door of opportunity that opened the way for future fun and craziness and, for once, came off as a true breath of fresh air.

This is everything a Deadpool comic should be.

Who knew that one of the best looks at LGBTQ history and also a jolting look at an ugly part of our nation's past that should never happen again could come from a comic book about a pink lion with a flair for dramatics who writes plays like "The Heart Is A Kennel of Lies"?

With only two issues left to go in this series, do yourself a favor and pick it up. Just be emotionally ready for it.

Mark Russell has written one of the most compelling and important comics in recent memory " not only the LGBTQ but for anyone who has ever fought for equality in their lives of in the face of any kind of bigotry or censorship.

This one is gonna stay on my radar for a while, and I hope other horror fans " even the ones who don't usually read comics " will feel the same way.

Ice Cream Man is easily on its way to become my favorite new comic book series of 2018.

The mystery deepens with every passing issue and so does my interest in this comic. It has gotten to the point where I fear I'm addicted because getting it once a month is not enough. Not only is the storytelling phenomenal, but the artwork is grisly yet beautiful, drawing you deep into this nightmarish world. A must-read for all horror fans!

In the most emotionally impactful issue to date, W. Maxwell Prince shows a man asking for a three dip cone and how each flavor represents a certain path he can take depending on how he walks away from the ice cream truck.

What I will say is that the amazing artwork and creepy storytelling from earlier issues is still present, and in some cases, even creepier than before. While this revelation could have backfired, it only adds to the terror. This Image Comics' offering remains one of the best horror comics in years.

An odd mix of space opera, Silent Running and 2001: A Space Odyssey, the last remaining human is seen on what seems like an impossible mission. A cautionary tale of where we possibly may be heading and what our future could become, while teasing us more about The Ice Cream man's true purpose in the universe. This book is uniquely memorable and unsettling, in all the right ways.

The Ice Cream Man has definitely evolved into The Twilight Zone of comics, and makes me wonder if the ghost of Rod Sterling is guiding the hands of the team behind this comic. Quite possibly the most emotionally unsettling yet fascinating issue of this title to date, I cannot wait to see what is down the line.

This is one of the best issues of this horror anthology series so far. The art by Martin Morazzo is still top-notch and the comic panels interspersed with crossword puzzle panels help accent the surreal feel of this issue. This comic continues to be a trippy enigma every month and it is good.

The look and feel of the artwork " from both MacFarlane and his collaborators " is simply amazing to look at, with each page dripping in artistic valor, even in moments where the art seems simple. The hype is real, folks. All hail Spawn!

Not only do we get to re-explore this time of Peter Parker's life when alien technology gave him a boost (at a price), but we get to dive deeper into the psychology of Mysterio and why he does what he does. This is what I love the most so far about this title. A perfect blend of action, the snarky humor we love from Spidey and some unexpected pathos from the main villain. Highly recommended!

If you are a fan of the original Mask comics or are curious to see the true nature of this classic Dark Horse character, this comic is highly recommended. If you are looking for more of the Jim Carrey style of slapstick, kinetic humor, just stick with the movie. This book may be a tad too dark for you. That said, this return is highly welcomed and I feel few will feel disappointed by this fresh resurrection of The Mask.

The Weatherman #1 grabbed my attention from the very first page and now holds it completely. I'm looking forward to the future issues immensely.

Based on this first issue, The Weatherman Vol. 2, much like the first volume, is going to be a fun ride.

The Weatherman is one of the few comics I am always excited to read.

As in the first issue, the action scenes feel like they come alive through artwork that honestly I would not mind having framed on my walls. And just like the first issue, the story here ends on a massive cliffhanger that, like the old 1930's movie serials like Flash Gordon, leaves you hanging in such suspense that you must return for the next installment to see what happens next. To me, that is a sign of masterful storytelling and I recommend this book without hesitation.

I seriously cannot get enough of this title, and you really need to check it out.

Taking on a surprising yet familiar villain who has gained too much power and gotten a little too big for their britches, this story, combined with some incredible artwork, is shaping up to be one of Marvel's strongest titles to date. A definite must-read and strong contender for best new title of 2019.
