The creative team clearly understands what made Stevens’ work so beloved and delivers another entertaining slice of pulp adventure. Read Full Review

May 31, 2026The Rocketeer: The Island #3 is a rip-roaring good time that pits the titular hero against the legendary King Kong in one of the most mismatched match-ups ever. Our hero may stand no chance against the giant monsters of Skull Island, but that won’t stop him from trying to rescue his lady love and get everyone home safely. The question isn’t if he’ll survive the next issue, but rather how. I’m at the edge of my seat waiting to find out. Read Full Review
