ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM!
Six months ago, Doctor Victor Von Doom became Sorcerer Supreme - then disappeared behind Latveria's closed borders. For most, there's enough going on in the world that Doom's absence is not a priority, and some time without him feels like a blessing. Only a few recognize it for what it truly was...the calm before the...

KittyNone reviewed Absolute Superman #4 Feb 11, 2025
This is a time when it feels like practically everyone feels helpless and hopeless beneath the wealthy elites whose boot is forever on our necks, and ever-increasing numbers of desperate people are looking at this as broken world as one that can only be cleansed with blood. The idea of a newly-arrived Superman (who can fairly be assumed to be as non-lethal as any other version) being seen as the s more

KittyNone reviewed Ultimates #9 Feb 9, 2025
Camp & Chris Allen make Ultimate Luke Cage into invincible Mumia Abu-Jamal and whereas any number of lesser writers might have been making a glib statement to please their social media following, Camp & Allen take the assignment seriously enough to give it heft and meaning. The best issue so far

No insight, no feeling, no meaning, no formal experimentation, not even a plot to speak of: this is the worst of Ellis, all purpose flayed from the bone, stripped right down to the masturbatory cruelty that festers at the core of even his best works. Absolutely the most empty thing I've ever read.

KittyNone reviewed Metamorpho: The Element Man #2 Jan 30, 2025
I've traditionally been politely averse to earnest Silver Age nostalgia comics even when they're written by innovative British writers whose name can be shortened to "Al", but I can't say no to ironic metacommentary on "reactionary nostalgia" and a good Skiffle joke so fiiiiine, I'll admit that this was good

But ...
KittyNone reviewed Absolute Wonder Woman #4 Jan 30, 2025
I unironically want nothing more from a superhero comic than a creative team with the fearless self-assurance to write something formally and emotionally breathtaking like the Circe flashback and then follow it with over-the-top surreal superhero bullshit like the giant sword, and to make it truly work. This is everything I love about superhero comics

Awesome issue from this series, once again. Everything I've praised the last two issues for is what I would praise for this one. Thompson and Sherman are really crafting up great stuff with this one (Spoiler art coming next, just in case you're looking at reviews without having read the issue yourself yet). Diana cutting off her right arm for Steve was insane, and I'm looking forward to seeing mor more

I'm simply stunned by how good this is. Every issue gets better and better, so I'm saving the perfect rating but it's coming, no doubt. By far the best of the Absolute titles !
Wonder Woman as a sorceress is just a hell of an awesome idea and Hayden Sherman is killing it !

This is as perfect a Wonder Woman rendition as I have seen since Kelly Sue’s Historia in that it captures the essence of what a Wonder Woman is. Thompson and Hayden show us just how effortlessly Diana befits the title of Wonder Woman. Art is phenomenal and the work speaks for it self. Just an absolute breath of fresh air.

Simply breathtaking. The story and character work on display here trumps the previous 2 issues, and is a grandly successful swing for the fences. One of the year’s best titles. Kudos to the entire team that put this story together. It’s the very essence of what an “absolute” title should be.

I have read a gratuitous number of Wonder Woman comics and this was easily one of the greatest single issues I've ever read, thrilling and unpredictable and formally ambitious. Thompson & Sherman are both doing just unbelievable work here

Mostly a subpar Cable & Bishop story with the "FUTURE OF THE MARVEL UNIVERSE — REVEALED!" being one panel with a list of what look to basically be the titles of upcoming storylines and crossovers.

A direct quote from Gabe's review, “Why on Earth does Jonathan Hickman believe Spider-Man fans are interested in the interpersonal dynamics between MJ, her sister, and her mother?“
Because people have been asking for more from the wider Spider-Man family for years and now, that family is a FAMILY. If you don't create characters with depth, interpersonal dynamics or anything to do, y more

it can turn off a potential reader for no reason. I'm not saying to be a shill. As I said in my review, I don't support pumping up books for the sake of it but tanking is just as much of a problem. People consuming media generally look to critics more than whatever the average userbase is. They have pull. When the critics reviews don't align with the userbase there is usually a reason. Gabe can have his reasons but that doesn't make them objectively correct. He just comes off as a curmudgeon.
I'm just a guy who likes comics. Like Gabe, I want to see Spider-Man do Spider-Man things. But just because Spider-Man isn't in it beating up the bad guys every issue doesn't discount the book from being good. My opinion is subjective. His is as well. His review is up on this site, people will see it lending itself to criticism. Not everything has to be bombastic and what people have across the board enjoyed about this series is that it takes the small world building moments and highlights them.
