Parental Advisory
Domino continues to be the fun ride I hoped it would be in every respect. As a fan of the character, it fills me with joy to watch a great writer and superb artistic team add to Domino's history in the best way possible!! Read Full Review

The story continues to grow and get better with each issue and the narrative is enhanced by amazing art. Read Full Review
Gail has been weaving a pretty interesting story for Domino so far. She has been delving into her past which I know nothing about and I look forward to learning more. She has given her some colorful and interesting friends to play off of and a mystery surrounding them. She has also interwoven some pretty good action and humor. The art and coloring is just gorgeous. My only problem is how similar Domino's story is to X-23 but that still has time to change or go in a different direction. Read Full Review
Domino #3 is another fun issue that puts the solider of fortune to the test. You would think that life is easy when you have the power to practically have everything go your way, and then you pick up this series to find out that you would be wrong. This shake-up to her life and relationships is clever when most who handle this character might fall victim to Deadpool-like mercenary shenanigans. Read Full Review
DOMINO #3 reduces the pace the series has maintained so far. In doing so, the issue lets its main character breathe and reveal her past and current state of being. Read Full Review
The Domino solo series keeps getting better, with a character-rich issue that really showcases how cool and interesting Domino can be. Read Full Review
Giving character to several neglected Marvel types, deepening Neena's back story and giving a lot of respect to a Marvel veteran character, with exuberant art. Read Full Review
Only one book made me gasp out loud this week, and it was Domino #3. Read Full Review
In terms of the larger themes, Domino continues to fret that one of her two best friends may be selling her out to her new enemies. As I'm not as sold on her compatriots, this part of the comic hasn't yet won me over. That said, I did enjoy Amadeus Cho‘s guest-appearance as he seems to fit into the mold of interesting characters who too often don't find themselves in interesting stories which Gail Simone is usually able to quickly rectify. And the tease about who Domino goes to in order to learn to better control her powers against Topaz's attacks does peak my interest. Worth a look. Read Full Review
Domino's backstory starts informing her present Topaz problem. Amadeus Cho sends her on a fascinating mission to master her luck powers, and her characterization at the start of this issue - her fury at Topaz - is highly persuasive. Generally superb art also helps make this feel extra-special; while it's not without flaws, they are eminently forgivable.
As a first time reader of Domino, I was happy with how easy this comic was to follow. I jumped right in and didn't feel lost at all.
This issue gave us a glimpse into Domino's past as she tries to figure out what is happening to her powers and whose behind everything. Her origin story is very generic; however I liked how the past scenes were black and white and the present scenes were in vibrant colors. It was a good reflection of how Domino's life started out in a dark place but became brighter as she created a new life with her friends.
Speaking of friends, we get a fun background into how Domino met her posse, Inez and Outlaw. We also got some good interactions between Domino and Amadeus Cho. I really loved Am more
Easily entertaining read.
Poor Christmas. I don't know who this mysterious hot guy is. Issue was just fine, no major complaints.
