America's Got Powers #1

Apr 15, 2012

Americas Got Powers also has this gladiator feel to it as there can be only one left standing. The wearing of stars, the fear of the stoners-as the super powered teens are called-and the mention of camps alludes a little bit to the treatment of Jews during World War II. This book was excellent, refreshing, and exciting. I look forward to the second issue which will be released next month May 16th.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation Prequel #4

May 8, 2012

Reviewer's Comments: While youre awaiting the theatrical release of G.I. Joe Retaliation on June 29th, fans can continue reading the prequel comics for the film. This book finds the team-especially Roadblock (played by Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock) and Snake Eyes (played by Ray Park)-in a rock and a hard place. Cobra has access codes to a secret facility, and Roadblock and Snake Eyes are dealing with Storm Shadows ninjas.Unless youve been reading the prequel series, you may find yourself a little lost as to whats been goin on. However, writer John Barber does a great job of bring readers into this story which is well-paced. The action is excellent and Salvador Navarros art is strong and fluid.I enjoyed the comic and I am looking forward to the movie.

Lone Ranger Vol. 2 #5

Apr 27, 2012

Reviewer's Comments:I enjoy watching reruns of The Lone Ranger series on TV, but Ive never read any the Ranger or Tontos adventures in the comics until now, and boy, have I been missing out.Issue five in this new volume of Lone Ranger stories finds our Ranger literally at deaths door thanks in part to the town of Utopias maniacal leader Marshal Dorsey and Tonto racing to get to him in time using the quickest and also deadliest means to do so.The story is written well, Ande Parks does an excellent job. There is suspense, drama, action, all leading to a cliffhanger conclusion. Esteve Polls illustrations are wonderful, especially the action sequences. One in particular, involves Tonto making a huge entrance. The scene is visually powerful and captures the action magnificently.The Lone Ranger is on a roll and readers will want to ride into the night with this series.

Mara #2

Feb 3, 2013

I enjoyed the story and it's such an intriguing idea. The creative team works well together as Wood's writing Doyle's artwork, and Bellaire's colors compliment each other very well to visually and orally introduce this new society to readers.

Solid State Tank Girl #1

May 18, 2013

Originally created by Martin and one half of the critically-acclaimed virtual band Gorillaz, Jamie Hewlett, this series has Martin teaming up with newcomer artist Cadwell who does an excellent job illustrating Tank Girl. His art reminds me at times of a psychedelic meets punk art form and it meshes well with Martin's maddening, and extraordinary scripting. There are times when what's going on might not make any logical sense, but that's the point. Tank Girl makes sense in its bizarre and surreal way. This is a comic that readers who are looking for the unique, strange and excellent should pick up.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Micro-Series #4

Apr 20, 2012

Writer Brian Lynch did an excellent job getting readers into the mind of the turtles' fearless leader. The art in my humble opinion was okay. I enjoyed the action scenes throughout-even though Leo was getting his butt kicked-but I didn't like Ross Campbell's depiction of Leonardo. It such a different contrast to the way the other turtles have been illustrated in the micro series. Overall this was a good book and the micro series is still going strong.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Micro-Series #5

Jun 21, 2012

Now back in the present, Splinter decides that he must take the life of his enemy Shredder and the issue ends with a showdown that will proceed into the main storyline in issue #12So far, this was my favorite out of all the micro series stories. It was a great read to get into the mind of Master Splinter and learn more about him. Usually the focus is on his sons so this was a great story to learn more about the turtles teacher. Burnhams writing was excellent and Charles Paul Wilson IIIs artwork was great. Readers should pick this one up right away.

Sometimes, the second issue of a series doesnt have that oomph that the first issue had that drew in readers. Its safe to say that this issue will grab readers and keep them. I throughly enjoyed this issue and I look forward to what this series has in store for The Bionic Woman.

The Bionic Woman #7

Jan 25, 2013

This series has been great from the start with its well-written script, and action packed art. I really enjoyed the selected readings from The Wizard of Oz which are throughout the comic. There's even a Star Wars reference! The Bionic Woman is an excellent story and it keeps getting better.

The Shadow #2

May 18, 2012

Garth Ennis (The Punisher) sets the story back in its original setting the 1930's. The story had the feel of an Indian Jones adventure (the original film) with all of the action that occurs up in the sky. Speaking of the sky, Ennis and artist Aaron Campbell visually take readers for a loop with the opening splash page on the first page. Campbell wonderfully expresses all of the action and chaos that occurs on the plane.This issue was exciting and enjoyable and readers will definitely enjoy this series.

The Shadow #3

Jun 22, 2012

This storyline is amazing with Ennis writing and the action driven art by Campbell. The feel of adventure, suspense, and the awesome cliffhangers make for an excellent read. Pick up the next issue of The Shadow because you want to know what evil lurks in the hearts of men and how The Shadow deals with it.

Wonder Woman (2011) #8

Apr 20, 2012

The only complaint that I have is theres no mention or closure about what was revealed about the Amazons last issue. I know this was a point of conflict for a lot of readers of the book and I hope that Azzarello resolves it soon.Overall this book was great and Im looking forward to what future issues will bring.
