30 Days of Night #12
Dec 12, 2012 |
One of my favorite things about this book is the way the art has rough lines, and gritty spots all around the panels. I love the way splats are put all over the panels because it adds a sense of grit that captivates and audience. When Mitten and Fotos are doing the art for this book they are truly forcing readers to give an extra look at their art and that is something that is hard to do in today's world, where readers see something, read it, and keep moving on.30 Days of Night #12 might not be the best place to jump on to this comic as it is clearly and end to a plot/arc but if you told me you wanted to start reading a comic that was gritty with a lot of action panels and a strong sense of story than I would tell you to read this book and prepare to get hooked into 30DoN and the team of Niles, Mitten and Fotos. |

Bloodshot (2012) #6
Dec 6, 2012 |
Overall, this comic was a damn near perfect action comic with plenty of twists and turns. Bloodshot was kicking ass and taking names proving why he is one of the most underrated action star in the world of comics. If you want to get into a fun action comic that will keep you entertained and force you to reread it because of how good it was than this is absolutely recommended. |

Bloodstrike (2012) #31
Oct 3, 2012 |
I really had a lot of fun introducing myself to all of the characters of the Bloodstrike Universe through Bloodstrike #31. This comic was solid in every aspect of the word and I suggest it to any readers looking for a good new comic. This might not be an exact “jumping on point” but it can easily be used as one. I highly recommend this comic! |

If you are looking for sci-fi comic that has a very abstract color system to it and a story that makes you think then maybe Changes would be something you should take a look at. |

Comeback #1
Nov 26, 2012 |
In the end, Comeback #1 was definitely entertaining. If you are a fan of the GTA series I would highly recommend Comeback #1. I'm still on the fence about whether or not I enjoyed it. Like I said, it is highly entertaining, but I don't know if it was for me. If you are looking to pick up another comic while at the shop I would say give Comeback #1a shot (especially if you like GTA). Keep in mind this is an issue #1 so you can hop on board, not be lost and see where it takes you |

Cyber Force (2012) #2
Dec 6, 2012 |
Entertaining? Yes. Well written? Yes. Beautiful art? Yes. Should you go buy this comic if you haven't already? Yes. Cyberforce #2 was everything a reader could want from a comic that they want to continue reading month in and month out. |

Extermination #8
Jan 17, 2013 |
If you are looking for an entertaining comic with stunning fight panels that Extermination #8 would be what you are looking for. I also recommend this comic for aspiring comic writers and artists. There are so many things that could be studied within this comic that could help any budding talent trying to get better. The aspect ratio's in this comic mixed with the facial expressions and even the huge dramatic splashes and even the panels shows that there is no such thing as too much details. Overall, great experience. |

Overall, this comic is good. It does its job as it progresses the story arch and can keep a reader interested the whole time. Is it a jump-on point? no it isn't. But if you are interested in Godzilla I'm sure you could go back a few issues and get into it. |

Judge Dredd #1
Nov 26, 2012 |
Overall, this was a very good comic. If you have ever read a Dredd comic in the pas this one will not dissappoint. While reading this comic I felt like the team knows what people want from a Dredd comic and so they said, "Here you want Dredd you got Dredd." I have been a fan of this comic for years and have been reading it since I was a kid and I can't say enough good things about this new Judge Dredd #1 from IDW. |

The Shadow #8 is a great pick up for any comic reader, fan of The Shadow or not. This issue is a good starting point if any new readers want a dark mystery comic with great action panels. It was written with a clear understanding and every panel was laid out very uniquely, to the point that after reading each page I would take a few extra seconds to admire the detail put into it. I absolutely recommend this comic to any comic reader out there. |

The Spider #8
Jan 22, 2013 |
Overall, this was a good comic, but their was an editorial mistake, where the wrong word was implemented in one of the word balloons. (see if you can find it) Other than that I think this was a good set up for what is to come and I will be intrigued to read Spider #9. As most episodic pulp comics do, Spider #8 kept leading you and leading you to the end but never quite gave you the end because they want you to come back next month. So, come back next month and see if you get the answers you want, and if you don't there is always the issue after that. |

I highly recommend this comic and every issue before it. |

Transfusion #1
Oct 9, 2012 |
Steve Niles did a fantastic job of building suspense and wonder throughout this comic. Any reader could truly appreciate this comic. My only draw back was that some of the art was abstract to the point that I had to back off the page I was reading just to see if I saw anything different from what I was looking at up close. Overall it was a very interesting comic and it left me with wonder as to where the story would go from here. |

Vampirella #26
Feb 6, 2013 |
As for the story, it was a clear way to end an arch and give a satisfying ending. The pacing of this comic assisted to this great close. Some comic's ending to a story arch either has too much talk or too much fight but this comic had the perfect balance. Overall, I do recommend readers to give Vampirella a chance as it is an enjoyable read filled with very entertaining dialogue, beautiful art and great stories! |

Witchblade (1995) #163
Jan 22, 2013 |
If you are looking to read a really fun action packed comic with a great sense of drama then this would be the comic for you. Another thing I would like to add is that no matter what issue you pick up, whether it is your first Witchblade or your 163rd, Top Cow always does a good job of informing the reader what has been going on in the first page review as well as throughout the story. A little something to keep in mind in case you are a new reader or are thinking about hopping on… which you should, because Witchblade is really good, is that you will always get a sense of a complete story within every comic but will still be eager to find out what will happen next time. Hat's off to Top Cow for making such an amazing comic for so many years. |

The story of the comic as I mentioned earlier was done very well and if you know anything about my reviewing at OGN I do not like to give spoilers. While it wasn't quite my cup of tea I'm sure there are some people out there that want a psychedelic comic so here it is. If you are into comics that involve other worldly events with concepts and ideas that belong in an “Alice in Wonderland” type of world, with some good humor and a solid hero story I definitely recommend jumping onto Zaucer of Zilk ASAP! |

Zaucer Of Zilk #2
Nov 15, 2012 |
This comic was very out there but I think the story was very strong and this was a great progression story for Zaucer of Zilk as a series. Zaucer showed what kind of hero he is in this issue and if you are into a modest hero who can trully save the day when he got out of his own way than this comic is for you. I was very entertained and am Looking forward to seeing where it goes! |
