Not a Superman in sight and I absolutely and utterly loved it. The art alone was worth the price but the retelling of the origin of Braniac was glorious.
This is horror on a level way above the mainstream just now and is totally deserving his own on going series.
I always hate the silver age Brainiac when I was young but this version is a standalone hit.......my comic of the year so far..........JM more

No spoilers........
The story about time is beautifully crafted and leaves one hell of a cliff hanger. Jessica is changing and the lessons of The End and Original Sin brings futures to an uncertain past......outstanding......JM

This is a far better story on the surface than the one we got. In parts the art was great and in parts the story was fantastic. In truth it really could have done with an extra issue and a better editor to resolve a few of the loose threads. Shame really as I had high hopes for this and the concept......JM

This beautiful psychedelic trip set in the Absolute universe continues.

Love it. This character hasn't felt this relevant in years.

Deniz Camp's star continues to rise, despite people unfairly turning on his wonderful Ultimate run.

The man might have the best new IP in years with Assorted Crisis Events. Watching his career boom has been a pleasure to see.

Amazing. Probably the finest second issue of an amazing book that I’ve ever read. It takes everything I loved about the first issue and moves it forward with exciting new developments, both in terms of plot and character. This is proving to be a book that I want to re-read immediately after I finish it. It definitely leaves you wanting more, and it also stimulates your imagination to ponder what future Absolute Universe team-ups with this character might look like. more

It's difficult at times to review a comic and use words that generally reflect how you feel. Martian Manhunter is absolutely and utterly perfection. The script , words , story and art just all come together magnificently...........JM

As a sci-fi geek I absolutely lov the story but the the art is page after page of homage to the very best in the industry. I think if you took away the words you could follow and love the story each panel tells. A++++++++++++ JM

Can I be the one to say it's seriously time to pull this awesome comic and story out of comics and get it on Netflix. It's dark , horrible , horrifying and so believable. Sam and Twich done with this kind of wonderful scripting could be sensational......I loved every single page.... JM

I have finally been able to read issue 12 of the Sam and Twitch Case Files series. The wait has been worth it; I loved this issue. The case of zombies becomes very interesting. I empathize a lot with the characters, I feel that the story is like a chapter of a police series and a television mystery. I like that new detective Noreen is helping Sam solve the conspiracy against Twitch.

The problem associated with Priest at the helm of Ella is it can be a difficult read. Fast forward to yet another issue 1 and I'm pleasantly surprised that it accurately read like a real no 1. Cool art and what's not to love about a Vampyyre with psychosis and a bit of time travel. Loved it.......JM

I hate these Frank Miller stories now as they have such a high bar to reach. The next problem is that Daredevil made Miller famous so the bar just keeps getting higher.
The art was outstanding and the atmosphere it created was to wish list for. This oozes the love of a character and all i can say is more please......JM

This should have and could have been really good but for some reason it felt flat. To be honest alot of the art was underwhelming and nothing really was there to drive a fast paced space story. Hopefully this will all be ironed out in a issue or two and I'm hopeful that eventually it will be awesome.....JM

If this is not a candidate for comic/story/art of the year then I may as well stop reading and travel back in time to Mars. OMG I seldom if ever get blown away by a story but i couldn't find a single word that didn't have a meaning......to the whole team an DC......Please take a bow for that was utter perfection........Jonn

As a much older fan off The Flash , I was seriously disappointed in this opening chapter. I understand the need at times to reinvent the wheel all over again but this was painful to read. The script was great but all the back and forward was to me so unnecessary and made the reading experience a whole lot disjointed. Hopefully as the story unfolds it will make it more enjoyable but to me there is only one Flash and that is Barry Allen....damn I must sound prehistoric in today's society......Jonn

I've been reading Superman nearly all my 61 years. Long before I could read words , I could look at the wonderful pictures of a man that came to save us all. The story so far I have enjoyed but the art today by Rafa Sandoval brings me full circle to why I love comics. His art alone is worth everything to a real fan of Superman
.Absolutely the best interior art yet. Before anyone says this or that. Remember we all love comics and we all love what we love so let the nay sayers say nothing for a change....JM more

Sam and Twitch Case Files 11. This new arc does not stop improving. Zombie drug dealers? We have a conspiracy against Detective Twitch Williams, and his partner Sam Burke trying to help him. The story is very well written, the dialogues are perfect, and the drawing is magnificent. Thomas Knachlik draws the stages, the streets, the offices, the restaurants, the vehicles very well. I'm really liking it. It is much better bow than the previous one. We're only two issues into the new arc and I'm super intrigued. I love watching Sam Burke investigating the streets, looking for clues, riding in his classic car, interrogating his contacts on the streets. the new detective Chan is very interesting too, a married woman and Asian origin, I think she wants to help Twitch get out of the problem it is in. This issue seemed like a police TV series and I love it. New York is very well captured in the comic. I am looking forward to reading the next issue. more

This arc is seriously getting really good. The art is sublime and the dialogue is really on point. I'm a real fan of Sam and Twitch but suddenly they become relevant all over again. If you loved hard edged detective stories with a huge amount of nice little plot twists then at least give it a try.......JM

As Pam moves further and further away from the DC universe and into her own reality, I just seem to love her stories more and more. The art this issue is perfect for the tone of the book and the urban horror is a fantastic throw back to the early 50's comics that are just so under appreciated. Hopefully In months to come this book can and should get a whole lot darker and with luck and sales , hopefully DC will keep it going.......JM more

Perfection

I've no words to describe just how difficult this book is to read and score. The art by Brett Booth is an absolute joy to the eyes and fits Spawn perfectly. I could look at these spash pages all day long. Sumptuous colour heightens the superb line work. After that it's all down hill with some of the most boring simple dialogue I've read in months. I've been a Spawn fan from.near the beginning but this is woeful in the extreme. Tell Todd to pair the artist with a real writer and this book would hit a home run every month. more

The art is the star of the show and the story is what make the star shine bright. Episode after episode of this journey theom Death layers more questions than answers but never forgets to give the reader so much more than anticipated......outstanding......JM

It's frustrating at times to read your favourite characters year after year. You hope for something new but get really irate when change happens and it feels so wrong. Ivy is changing now into i have know idea what and I love it. The scope is huge and Janet brings fun and normality to something way way bigger. I'm not always a fan of the art but I think I just wanted something that was already there. I hope this team are around for a long time......JM more

I made a kind of promise to myself this year that I would only review something outstanding and wickedly wonderful. Oh well let's face it this comic has to be the funniest well thought out story that I've read in forever. The writing and script by Charles are an utter joy but the art by Ryan is absolutely and utterly delicious on every single panel........fabulous.......Jonn

Occult and supernatural meshed into a highly art driven story about human sacrifice and so called friendships. Azzarello keeps enough story back to really drive the sense of the living forest and the art of Del Rey is perfect for the dark mood of the story.....JM

Nice art and pretty engaging story that was let down mostly because of crude dialogue.......JM

This is a strange sort of story with near perfect art and colours wrapped up in a pretty enjoyable western like I used to love way back in the day. Problems come when the story is extremely light on the supernatural but as I love a good western I've little to complain about here.....JM

Yoon as a character is awesome and the maga style art is absolutely wonderful. The script is witty and makes you think but in a good way. I absolutely and utterly love this kind of story and believe me the art really is outstanding......JM

I like Snyder's take so far on a young vibrant Batman with a truly great understanding of how all his friends eventually become his enemies. The down side i suppose is it's a bit rough and uneven in places and skips around timeliness to much. I say to much as it disrupts the action and makes it less than I think it will rad as a trade.....nonetheless I enjoyed it enough.....JM

The images of the Darkness that follows the Eye to the Door of Time is so perfect. Jeff brings the occult to life wrapped up in a tale of everyday family life. I absolutely love his wonderfully quirky art and colours as they fit so well with this sad story about having a curse that nobody sees and only the few believe......JM

Future and past mesh together in a seamless noir horror that is brilliantly crafted. The art fits the theme perfectly and the colours pop of the page. I felt like I was watching a re run of some wonderful old sci fi that would grace any tube , past or present. I'm really loving these over sized graphic comics from DSTRLY and wow when it comes to taking on the super hero drivel and producing intelligent art......
Stunning......JM more
