The most intriguing book to come out of the Jinxworld imprint yet, Bendis and Mack's Cover is a twisty title that wastes no time completely upending the status quo it set up in the first issue. Read Full Review
As Cover shifts its focus from establishing connections to the comics industry to the work of spycraft, the premise clicks into place and every idiosyncrasy becomes much more interesting. Read Full Review
Cover #2 is a strange one. At times stunningly beautiful. At others painfully slow. But underneath the faults is a strong thriller that hopefully will come out to shine eventually. Read Full Review
THE GOOD:
-I'm adding two points to the score for the art. I'm never picky with my art, but I just wanted some way to show how much I love this art. It is outstanding.
-Very funny issue. I never thought Jinxworld was funny until this issue and this weeks Pearl #3. This one didn't have me going as much as Pearl, but I still laughed a lot.
-The Ninja Sword Odyssey is a comic I would probably pay for if it was sold in real life. The pages from it in this book are amazing.
THE BAD:
-There are a few nitpicky elements. Like, how the security guard fails to check the gift Max gives the President. Kind of the point of their job. Or how its promised to be a great spy story, but all they do is more
