NO/ONE leaves the reader truly invested into the comic's world. I highly recommend it.

MINISERIES PREMIERE
Ten months ago, the Richard Roe murders shocked the city of Pittsburgh. In the months since, the killings have sparked a dangerous political movement, copycat killers, and a masked vigilante who's still determined to hold the powerful accountable. Not a symbol. Not a hero. They could be anyone. They're NO/ONE.

StarKnight reviewed God is Dead #8 May 3, 2023
Actually, this is decently good! I enjoyed seeing how people react to the gods- I just wish I could have seen it when the gods first appeared.
Armageddon is upon us as MIKE COSTA continues the war of the divine with all new bi-weekly issues of God is Dead! The World is at peace with Mother Earth Gaia the sole survivor of the epic war. But a new resistance sets their sites on gods from the hidden pantheons to form a coalition to attack Gaia. But with more gods return...
StarKnight reviewed God is Dead #7 May 3, 2023
Boring.
JONATHAN HICKMAN's vision for the end of the world through divine retribution continues as an ongoing series from his co-writer MIKE COSTA! After the cataclysmic battle of gods in the first arc, human religions are in tatters. A victor has laid claim to Earth and very few dare to oppose such a ruler. But oh so many ...
StarKnight reviewed God is Dead #6 May 3, 2023
And you ruined it. I just feel like the whole scenario would be a lot more impactful if we could see how people were really reacting... not just three of them. In my opinion, making these characters into gods really takes away from the narrative to the point where it might as well just be a big battle royale between gods.
The battle of the gods is over and one stands supreme above all of the world. This is truly the end of days...until the gods of humankind are born and rise up. From the very DNA of the gods, man has once again taken pride and hubris to the very brink. Three who would formerly oppose the gods as mortals now walk as the divine. And they m...

This was better than the others, but still hasn't delivered what I want or what I came for.
The world is only hours away from Armageddon as the pantheons of Asgard and Olympus collide. With the first attempt at creating a god weapon resulting in the birth of Mammon, the enclave of scientists strikes a desperate stake as they hope they can create a being able to stand against the deities waging war across the globe. But tampering with th...

StarKnight reviewed God is Dead #2 May 3, 2023
Disappointed that I did not get to see any people reacting to the gods being real this time either.
JONATHAN HICKMAN brings the wrath of the gods to comics with his new series, God is Dead! Modern man turns all his technology and destruction to bear against the deities of old. But what good are guns, tanks, and even nuclear missiles against the power of the divine? In their hubris, humans have ruled for too long. Now the gods of legen...
StarKnight reviewed God is Dead #1 May 3, 2023
This would be interesting, if only it focused on how people actually reacted to the gods being real.
Like a thunderbolt from heaven, the epic launch issue of GOD IS DEAD is here! East of West and Fantastic Four author JONATHAN HICKMAN launches a fierce new series that stomps where others fear to tread. Mankind has argued over the existence of gods since the dawn of time.
In modern eras it's been fashionable to mock religious believe...
StarKnight reviewed Hallows' Eve #2 May 3, 2023
This was actually really good! I would absolutely recommend it- I just wish it didn't have to rely on the Beyond saga and the "Dark Web" saga for the plot.

Like most of her life, every step forward for Hallows' Eve leads to five steps back.
Her mystical masks give her abilities like you've never seen, but power on this level attracts all kinds of people hunting it down.
Don't miss the coolest new character in comics and the book that will shock you and keep you guessing!

Batman finds himself in an unexpected spar with Wild Cat for old time’s sake while Wonder Woman, Alan Scott and the Spectre contemplate their actions in WWII. Meanwhile, Joker finds exactly who he’s looking for that will come back to haunt the JSA.

You know what they say: two's company, but three's a crowd! The Royal Flush Gang joins Selina Kyle behind bars, and while the other inmates are team Selina, the Queen remains loyal to Punchline.

A few notes:
1. Can people please stop pretending that Tini Howard is a competent writer?
2. The dialogue continues to be atrocious.
3. For the love of Christ, give up Valmont. Stop trying to make him a thing. He's not even a has-been; he's a never was.
4. Tini's knowledge of the prison system must have come from a children's book.
