This was better than the last two (not that that's hard to achieve since those were full of cringe), I really liked Joe's character. Still, I have two big problems with this book. One, the backup stories are always bad and the art is pretty weak, I feel like it's doing a disservice to the main story. If you're going to want to push these characters put in some effort, not just this low-hanging fru more
The United States of Captain America #3
The shield thief targets a cultural landmark in Kansas, hoping to put a permanent stain on Captain America's image. Sam and Steve are hot on his trail - and aided by Joe Gomez, the Kickapoo Tribe's own Captain America!
But there's more to the thief's agenda than meets the eye. Are the three Caps headed straight into a trap? And do they have an...
The United States of Captain America
The shield has been stolen! No one understands the value of the shield like those who've wielded it, so Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson set out on a road trip across America to chase down the thief.
But instead, they find the Captains, everyday people from all walks of life who've taken up the mantle of Captain America to defend their communities. ...

The ending to this arch was meh. Some neat twists, but just meh. And that's what this series is to me. I'll stay around for a few more issues to see where this goes but I'll probably drop it soon.

Alien #6
IT ALL COMES CRASHING DOWN!
• Epsilon Station is losing its orbit.
• Gabriel Cruz is losing his son.
• Can anything be saved?
Parental Advisory
Only reason I am giving this a 9.5 is cause I am sad I have to wait till 2022 to get more Barbaric content. This series is amazing and I am sad to wait. The ending was perfect, the writing was perfect, the art was perfect. I can not wait to see what happens next!
Barbaric #3
Everything's gone to sh*t. But what else is new for a barbarian cursed to do good, who has to follow the commands of a bloodthirsty axe? It's just that today's a little worse. With Owen's back against the wall, and his enemies eager to chop him to bits, things are looking especially grim as the first arc of BARBARIC comes to a close.
So I don't know why Ennis is making Batman a jerk to Alfred. I understand the villain's and the henchmen, but Alfred? Other then that, the art was good as always, although sometimes it is hard to tell what is happening. I'm already invested so I'll stay to the end and see what is really going on.
Batman: Reptilian #3
It got the Riddler. It got the Penguin. It got Deadshot, Hugo Strange, Two-Face, Tweedledee, and Tweedledum. It has left carnage in its wake as it moves through Gotham's villainous underworld, and Batman finds himself vexed by one very important question: Just what on Earth is it? Now the Dark Knight's search for clues has him tracking The Joker. B...
This issue felt fast and more like a filler. I want more to happen moving forward, and I feel like that is what's going to happen. All the characters seem to be established and introduced so hopefully it will pick up from here.
Vinyl #3
As Walter continues to go even deeper into the sunflower death cult's underground gore bunker, his serial killer friends decide to split up to sew their unique brands of chaos. New wickedly disturbing monsters are revealed on both sides. Who wins when the criminally insane take on pure evil?

Who is the ALL-NEW DARKHAWK?
Connor Young is a seventeen-year-old star basketball player with the world ahead of him, until a surprising medical diagnosis changes everything. But what happens when a mysterious amulet finds him and gives him powers beyond belief? What will he do with these new abilities? Get in on the ground floor as KYLE HIGGIN...
Not going to lie, I was thinking of dropping this from my pull list. But after reading it I'm pleasantly surprised. It was a first good issue, and the twist at the end was okay. Didn't really surprise me but wasn't bad. I like the direction this book is going in so lets see if it gets better. The art is okay, could be a bit better but the writing is really good.

While issue 2 od Dark Blood was more back story and filler, I do believe it will take off from here. Rather they do this early on then later. The art is still great as is the writing. My only issue was that is felt short, like the first issue. Hopefully moving forward things pick up.
Dark Blood #2
Does even the kindness of strangers come with a cost?
Avery has adjusted to his post WWII life in Alabama but when an altercation with some local boys leaves him hurt, an unlikely bystander steps in.
And while Carlisle, a white university doctor, not only offers Avery immediate first aid but free ongoing medical care... nothing is...

Kang the Conqueror #1
THE ORIGIN OF KANG!
The man called Kang the Conqueror has been a pharaoh, a villain, a warlord of the space ways and even, on rare occasions, a hero. Across all timelines, one fact seemed absolute: Time means nothing to Kang the Conqueror.
But the truth is more complex. Kang is caught in an endless cycle of creation and destruction dictate...

Moon Knight #2
Moon Knight has established his territory, and the people within it are under the protection of his Midnight Mission. But what happens when those very people are turned into weapons against him? When gangs of elderly residents leave a trail of bizarre violence, Moon Knight must put his body, mind and very soul on the line to get to the bottom of it...
So far the best issue out of the four. Only complaint I had was Vader fighting Qu'iar. Other then that I thought the panels were great and the dialogue fantastic.
Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters #3
WINNER TAKES ALL!
• Terrifying, implacable Dark Lord of the Sith DARTH VADER has laid claim to HAN SOLO, who is frozen in carbonite.

• What happens when the third law of Krakoa is broken?
• What happens when all other solutions have failed?
• What happens when Nightcrawler finally finds the Way?
Rated T+
The conclusion to Spider-Man: Spider's Shadow, was good. Just good. It was short and to the point, I was expecting more action and stakes. It was surprising at times, and the writing wasn't bad. But it seemed very easy for Peter to win. If they took out the epilogue and just gave a few more pages to the story, I feel like that would of helped. But that is just my opinion.
Spider-Man: Spider's Shadow #5
WHAT IF PETER PARKER BECAME VENOM?
By choosing to keep the symbiote, Spider-Man let himself become a monster. Now, with the help of Mary Jane and the Fantastic Four, he's managed to reclaim control. But if the symbiote can't have Peter, then it will just have to take the rest of the Marvel Universe. The shocking finale of this bold new approach...
Issue 5 of Geiger was pretty good. A nice change of pace from the previous issue. The panels were amazing for this issue, and the art is always nice. It felt a little short, but next issue is supposed to wrap everything up for this arch. I'm happy it isn't ending though. The world they created is amazing and I want more of it.
Geiger #5
Allies... or a different kind of enemy? Geiger's quest to find sanctuary takes him deep inside a remnant of the old world and face to face with the desperate survivors within. When a heartbreaking discovery puts them at odds with Geiger, an ancient warrior is awakened with one mission: bring down Geiger, dead or alive!
I'm really liking this issue for TNHOTL. It sets up more story and that ending was awesome. The art is still stunning. The writing was great, took a non-horror rout this issue but I'm sure more will come. I want to know more and I can't wait for issue four.
The Nice House on the Lake #3
Walter's "rules" for their getaway strongly suggested the residents not leave the property lines of the House...but how far do they go? It's not like Sam, the Reporter, to leave a question like that unanswered...but what he finds when he walks the perimeter of the lake might turn out to be the story of his lifetime-however much longer it lasts!
Issue three is probably my favorite. It was interesting, you got to see the characters express themselves more while trying to sympathize some of them. The panels and art work were fantastic. I know Bunn is writing lots of titles right now, but this one is slowly becoming my new favorite.
Basilisk #3
Is there no end to the Chimera's reign of terror? Regan, a former member of the Chimera, and her past victim Hannah continue the hunt for Regan's brethren, but the shared memories that haunt them both may put an end to their quest. Meanwhile, cornered the other Chimera may have met their match... the State Police.
2025 In Review:
Yeah, they made a point out of these being all 4 Caps, that gorgeous Alex Ross cover sure baited a lot of people only for Cantwell to include just Sam and Steve. I doubt the last two issues will make up for it regarding Bucky and Walker, especially because they have to introduce the last two new characters AND resolve the main plot.
Ya the Alex Ross cover is what sold me, and I was hopping he'd do all 5 issues too.
