Joshua Williamson is on a roll with this title. We get to see Cobra Commander without his mask, that's a first for me. I wasn't familiar with the Road Pig character, but he appeared in both G.I. Joe titles this month. Though the character was somewhat different in each title. I was waiting for Hound to show up, maybe in the next issue.

The feel of the previous arc was better, but I think the story for this one is superior. There is more at stake. Erik the Red is just a dick, no matter what situation you put him in. I like how they are building out the world and the mythology. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes.

Another good issue. There's some good action here and a further introduction to a new warden. The aracnid warden is an interesting character as he, like Bloodhound has been subjugated by his charges. The whole look and feel of the undercity was pretty cool and the webs being a telepathy device was a good idea. I can't believe this is only issue nine. So much has happened.

Rook: Exodus #9

By: Geoff Johns, Jason Fabok
Released: Dec 3, 2025

The hit sci-fi epic plunges deeper into the heart of Exodus! Trapped in the lair of the monstrous Arachnid, Rook, Dire Wolf, and Matterhorn face thousands of ravenous mutated spiders—and time is running out. If the wardens fail, the fate of Exodus itself may be sealed in the web. Plus, who is Stag…and why does he want Dire Wolf’s father dead?

I think I'm done with this title. I think Lemire took this in the completely wrong direction. I'm not really interested in a year one of the team from the 1940s. After a 12-issue maxi-arc that was drawn out to the ultimate degree, we should have gotten a story with the new team. A contemporary story rather than a period piece. I think I will be dropping this title.

This issue is the best of the run so far, and I love Rucka, but I'm just not on board with this story. I just can't buy all of the JLA's powers sitting in a soup on the watchtower. The best thing that can happen with this story is that the powers milkshake they just stole is completely fake. Let's see what happens.

At least this run is not as bad as the previous two writers' runs. However, it's not good either. I am not enamored by this Minotaur character. There is nothing here we haven't seen a dozen times before. And Tim was left out of the issue completely, but at least we didn't have to hear from his whiny boyfriend. I'm going to give this a couple of more issues, but it pales in comparison to Batman & R more

This is purely a setup issue, and the Punisher only appears in one scene, but I like this setup. The storyline is the traditional mobsters taking over each other's territories, but the fact that Frank leaves Matt tied up to hear their plans is cool. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes.

I like this way this started, and I like GL and GA together, but the story fizzled out after the beginning. The dialogue, which was supposed to be banter, turned out a bit awkward. I know this was a filler issue due to the event. That's why I'm not a fan of events. They break momentum.

This is a bridge issue for sure. Not a strong story. I feel like it was pretty truncated. We never see the warden really do anything wrong.
