The art and coloring is pure eye candy and the writing/plot is great. All around just a really fun book!
This issue was very disappointing. It starts out well enough with the horror element. The monster is cool and Charlie feels to be in danger. However, when we move to the Hulk part, it falls apart. Since when can Hulk see ghosts? It doesn't feel like a Hulk story when he starts being led around by the dead detective, who tells his story instead of us dealing with the monster. It doesn't even end. Imore

Perfection or the closest it will ever get. You get your moneys worth and so much more. The main Conan comic story was fantastic. The short story by Jim Zub was incredible. The Solomon Kane story was great as well. I truly enjoyed everything in this mag, articles and all. Do yourself a huge favor and pick this book up. I can’t wait for the next issue.

Khonshu VS. Khonshu! Fist of Khonshu fights Fist of Khonshu as the new Moon Knight brings the fight to the Midnight Mission and Hunter's Moon - but what could drive brothers to battle? And with the Mission a battleground, what of those who seek aid?
What a great start to a wild series! The art is incredible. The line work is super clean and very fitting for the story. The coloring is fantastic. The plot is great and the writing/dialogue is as well. Definitely pull worthy and can’t wait to see what happens next!
Don't. Murder. The locals. This is small-town serial killer, upstanding citizen, and adorable brown bear Samantha Strong's cardinal rule.

I liked the issue but not a fan of the ending. I don’t care how clever you may think it is.
"THE END OF A SENTENCE"

I really love this series. There’s so much to like. Things are really starting to hit the fan with this issue! This was a brutal issue. I can’t wait to see what comes next.
Sirens of the City continues with Layla realizing that concerning her pregnancy... certain death is on the line.
On top of harnessing her own powers as a siren, a close friend will have to threaten the very fabric of their coven, and potentially the survival of one of the more human members!
I'm LOVING it so far. This issue felt like it was multiple issues. So much going on. It's great!

Not as strong as the 1st issue but still a very good issue! I’m really loving this series, I recommended buying it and jumping right in!
As the mysterious truth of Rome and his connection to Layla's pregnancy are revealed, even the relative safety of friends and newfound shelter won't be enough to protect her from the implications of what she carries.
But being a Siren comes with its share of power, and Layla wouldn't dare let that go to waste while in dire straits...

This series is off to a great start. Fantastic art, writing, and plot. The coloring is really awesome as well, cool to see books try and do different things. Added this to the pull.

This is a really hard issue to review/rate. The art is absolutely fantastic imo, great line work and just pure eye candy. The coloring is also top notch. The writing is pretty good but the plot is weird and doesn’t really give us much yet. I feel this is a comic that will be better reviewed/rated as a whole than as it’s individual parts. There was definitely enough for me to like in the issue more

Chip loves to cut off limbs. Batman and now Daredevil. I don't think adding a supernatural element works for Daredevil. A street-level character going to hell and interacting with what are essentially ghosts doesn't really work for me. Let's see how this wraps up.
DAREDEVIL IN HELL! Chip Zdarsky and Marco Checchetto are on the last leg of their tour de force through Matt Murdock's life...and afterlife.
Rated T+
I couldn't agree more, the fuck is this shit. After such an amazing run with the character. I feel sometimes writers shouldn't wrap things up.
Daredevil going to hell to free his loved ones' souls, fighting demons. This shit is corny af. I really loved everything Zdarsky was doing up until this issue. Good fuckan grief. I gave it a 5/10 because the art is 10/10.

Betrayed, bleeding, and broken, Peacemaker drags his finely toned body to a local watering hole where he can existentially question his violent pursuit of peace from the safety of a barstool. But his wallowing is short-lived. He’s going to get his dog back…but he’s going to need some help. Lucky for Peacemaker, his parole officer, Richard, ha...
Comics truly don’t get better than this. The writing is great. The art is great. I laughed out loud the whole issue.
Things go from bad to worse when Peacemaker, with the help of some Golden Age superheroes, infiltrates General Immortus’s secret island base-but ends up captured by a drug smuggler with a penchant for his own goods. Bullets, powder, and punches fly, and Peacemaker’s geriatric squad have victory in sight. But first…they’ll have to get throug...

I really enjoyed this book. Fantastic art and colors. The plot and writing is great as well. They give you a good introduction for the character and it’s a really fun one shot. Hopefully we get more Masumi like this.
Masumi is back! The last remaining descendent from a long line of assassins, Masumi was raised as a weapon with deep knowledge of witchcraft and demonic lore, who has seen everyone that she has loved perish in their war against demons.

Another great issue. The humor, plot, writing, art, and coloring is fantastic. The next issue can’t come soon enough!!

I really love this take on a slasher type media. It was a lot different than what I was expecting but in a good way. There is a ton of loose ends but I don’t think this will be the last we see of Harrower. Very solid series.
Every secret comes to light as Jessa is confronted with the horrible truth of the figures behind everything!
As she faces the Harrower in a final showdown, her fate seems inevitable.
Can she escape becoming what she fears most?
Brutal as can be and everything gets real chaotic. Definitely a page turner that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
? The Harrower proves difficult to kill, but killing comes easy for him.
? With the group split in two, no cell service, and the police being suspiciously useless-someone won't make it out alive.
? After witnessing a shocking betrayal, Jessa unearths a massive secret, and it turns out th...
Great issue, things really start to get chaotic in this issue. Art was good and writing is real good.
Something monstrous stalks Jessa and her friends, with only the light of their phones as meager torches against the darkness.
Between a dead signal and dead friends, an unexpected betrayal is the last thing Jessa and Jax need to survive a party house gone to hell!
It’s more like an 8.5 but that 4 is fuckan bonkers.
It’s a nice start to a slasher comic. A couple cool kills. The art is pretty good and the writing is real good.
There's nothing to fear in the quaint town of Harrow, New York-except, that is, for the Harrower.
The children wish this boogeyman was just an urban legend, but this purveyor of puritanical vengeance against the unrighteous is very real, and there's no escape, because the Harrower seems unkillable, and spans generations, always returning.....
Great art and writing. It’s so fuckan funny. If you like the show, you will love this book!
The Brain has given Peacemaker no choice but to complete a dangerous mission on his behalf, but he won't have to kick bad-guy butt on his own. With Monsieur Mallah at his side, Peacemaker breaks into the secret base of General Immortus to steal some super-villain DNA. What starts as the team-up you never knew you wanted takes a surprising turn that...
I really love this series. It’s such a bummer more people don’t know about it. The art, coloring, writing, and story are all fantastic. It’s basically a Serbian cop drama that’s about corruption and human trafficking. I can’t wait for the last two issues!
Corruption from within a Serbian police department begins to destroy a cop's relationship with his partner as a local gangster's human trafficking operation is revealed. BOOM! Studios Publisher Ross Ritchie calls SOKO a "well-illustrated police procedural."
I enjoyed this for the most part. The art is great when it’s involving the superheroes/villains/space. The art can be a bit weird when it’s just normal people tho but I still really like it. The writing is hit or miss. Definitely good enough to pick up another issue imo

Yeah, it's a pretty random ability. I'm with you on being disappointed by this series. It needs to go somewhere, fast, or I'm getting out. I'm giving it 2 more issues, and if things dont get better, I'm out. I have better uses for 4.00. The stalled plot is only part of the problem. The art is wildly inconsistent. I'd rather they put a guy like Travel Forman on permenantly, then having Nic Klein intermitantly. The costant fill-in artists are killing the vibe.
Agreed
