Outstanding comic! One of the best I've ever read! I loved it!
Check out my in-depth review here.

I'll admit Jim Starlin is one of those classic creators who I've yet to get around to reading more of, and this week's new OGN, Thanos: The Infinity Revelation, has made me regret that. For someone who made his name in the 70s, Starlin's art looks just a more

The revelatory waters of the Infinity Well lead Thanos on a new quest, with a once-sworn enemy at his side. A crusade that will bring confrontation with the Silver Surfer and ...

We get the origin story for Overdrive here, and it is wonderful. This is one of the only comics that can regularly get a laugh out of me. Beetle in the bathroom with Shocker and Silvermane's head hiding in the tub is hilarious, and was given away for fre more

This is the "Friend from Foe" crossover storyline, and I dug it. It's two comics with the same setting: a boat. Crossbones and some of his cheap goons rig the boat to explode. The timer's set for 4 minutes. In each of the respective books, you see what P more

This is one of those crazy issues I've been hearing about for the past year+, since I got back into comics. Since the story has already been told, it's been real tempting to track down the old black & white versions of Alan Moore's Miracleman to see what more

At this point, I'm thinking I'll pretty much love whatever Kirkman puts his hands on. He's not the greatest comics writer of all time, but he's consistently awesome and interesting, which is perhaps just as important. The part when Kyle and the cop beat the snot more

I've always called Storm my favorite female superhero, based solely on my impressions of her from the 90s X-Men animated series and whichever X-Men comics I could get my hands on back then. Greg Pak's Storm, however, has solidified her in that position. more
