Amala's Blade #1
May 10, 2013 |
Overall, Amala's Blade is a really great read, and I'm curious to learn more about her past, her work as an assassin and the overall structure of the world she inhabits. I'd highly recommend it for anyone interested in a short series with great art and beautiful colors. |

Aquaman (2011) #0
May 10, 2013 |
I've never read Aquaman before this, but I'm not sure this was a good introduction to the character. Maybe the series is better over the long-term versus individual issues; I'm interested enough in Aquaman the character to keep reading. But I'd only recommend this issue if you're a fan of Johns' writing, and have been following Aquaman since the beginning. |

Black Kiss 2 #4
Jul 11, 2012 |
Overall, I would recommend Black Kiss II #4 to anyone who didn't mind being caught reading it - the covers are graphic, the dialogue is vulgar, and sex and other explicit activities abound. If you don't mind someone peering over your shoulder as you read about the main character and her exploits, then perhaps you'll enjoy Black Kiss II. Just don't expect anything mind-blowing or earth shattering. |

Catwoman (2011) #14
May 10, 2013 |
Generally speaking, I think I'm getting a much better understanding of who Selina (as Catwoman is) and I definitely want to continue reading Catwoman if the same creative team who did this issue continues to work on her in the future. A must-read for any Catwoman fan. |

Damsels #3
May 10, 2013 |
Overall, I can't say I would recommend Damsels #3. Even though I love the idea of transforming old fairy tales into comics, the same types of stories keep getting told, and it all becomes rather stale rather quickly. Let's create something new (please). |

Overall, I'd have to give Green Lantern #0 two stars (out of five). It didn't suck me into the GL universe as a new reader, I wasn't entirely gripped by Baz or his story, and the writing felt both linear and simple. |

Hellraiser #19
May 10, 2013 |
Everything about this issue is superb, and I definitely plan on going back and picking up the trades so I can get caught up on where the series is going. Between the great art, the interesting story (from what I can tell) and recognizable characters - I can't recommend this issue enough. (So now I'm really excited to add this to my pull pile!). |

Hellraiser: The Dark Watch #1
May 10, 2013 |
Overall I found Barker's and Seifert's writing excellent - the story never felt slow, and I enjoyed seeing the female Cenobite in a different role. Dark Watch #1 is really good - but it's clearly not a stand-alone, so I would mostly recommend this to fans of the franchise, specifically, the other Hellraiser titles. |

Lot 13 (2012) #1
May 10, 2013 |
So I would highly recommend Lot #13 for lots of reasons, for lots of people: if you're new to horror and want something frightening to read, or you're a seasoned horror fan and enjoy ghost stories. If you're interested in an art style that's unlike a lot of mainstream comics, and, most importantly, it's not about vampires (which is basically a zillion brownie points in my book). |

Lot 13 (2012) #3
Feb 1, 2013 |
While #1 seemed very promising, it doesn't seem that #3 has turning out to be much different than any other bloodthirsty ghost horror story. I couldn't recommend Lot 13, a comic that doesn't challenge me intellectually or emotionally, and doesn't really leave me wanting more. |

May 10, 2013 |
With above average art, and great penciling by Huang - Savage Skullkickers #1 is a visually stunning issue with a lot of effort and heart poured into it. While I didn't personally enjoy Savage Skullkickers, I'd highly recommend this for anyone interested in unconventional storytelling techniques and an all around well made comic. |

The only awkward thing about The Highways is how the panels are placed. It seemed atypical than what I normally read, and it was difficult to really follow along at first. Hopefully, by the next issue, I'll get used to it and it won't be a problem. I'm looking forward to issue #2. |
