Doppelganger is a great, limited slice to the types of stories Alterna Comics puts out and should be on anyone's pull list. |

Minky Woodcock: The Girl Who Handcuffed Houdini #1
Nov 22, 2018 |
Titan Comics has quickly become one of my favorite publishers because they embrace new and exciting concepts. On top of that, they find gifted artists who have visionary talents that come through on the page. Cynthia Von Buhler's artistic talent expands into the comic book world and we are all better for it. |

The art by Andy Clarke is absolutely incredible. I may be judged harshly for invoking the name of Moebius but his spirit is there and Clarke breathes grand life onto the page. |

Conan the Barbarian #1 isn't just a bunch of sword swinging and yelling. The story is well thought out and will surprise you with its wit and smarts. If you're looking for something new to read, Conan might be the answer. |

The creative team knows what works and what to focus on, giving us a classic Matt Murdock in some familiar, and not so familiar, territory. Not only that, we get a healthy dose of subplots, setting up some interesting future possibilities. An easy one to recommend and add to your pull list. |

Bezian's artwork captures all the nuances of the story and along with a colorful, fleshed out cast, just add to the fun. I'm looking forward to more Doctor Radar and seeing how Simsolo fleshes this world out. |

Safe to say that the second issue stands just as tall as the first and is shaping up to do the characters from Watchmen justice. Will it be a classic in the same vein? No. But the high risk they took in telling this story has easily paid off. |

Heroes In Crisis #6
Feb 28, 2019 |
Heroes in Crisis should be talked about more often. It's handling issues and topics that have gone unexplored by the Big Two and doing it just about perfectly. It's the kind of book that you want to collect individually so you have time to digest what your reading before moving on to the next chapter. |

It would easy for this story to get bogged down or become a complete mess but Snyder knows his stuff and walks the line between entertaining chaos and hopeless junk. Capullo brings it again with the artwork and I enjoy his take in action sequences and the quieter moments that need a softer touch. |

Universe building can be complex but writer Christopher Bec and artist Stefano Raffaelo give us a great blend of landscapes and characters that avoid the usual cliches. While I might have a good idea of where things are going, I'm sure Bec is going to throw a few swings out way and keep things moving. |
