A-Force (2016) #1

Jul 5, 2016

A-Force seems very similar to the All New All Different Avengers first issue only with all females. The story is composed of a few characters that will eventually make up the team coming into contact for the first time. Singularity seems to know all the other characters but none of them know her and I'm interested to find out seeing that I have not read the previous volume.

The first issue of the Detective Comics Rebirth is a pretty solid issue. It starts a bit of mystery and a conflict between the classic rivals in Superman and Lex Luthor. I'm interested to see where it goes ass there is a pretty cool final reveal.

This Action Comic really lives up to the name. Action is pretty much all that is going on in this issue. Its cool to see Luthor and Superman teaming up against a common enemy in Doomsday but it is a quick read because there is so little story there. Solid issue that continues the arc. I can't complain.

Much like the last one this issue is mostly action over story, there is a bit more information given about their being two Clark Kents and I'm gettting some enjoyment out of seeing Lex Luthor as a hero. This comic doesn't take the story much further but the battle rages on.

The art is the real stand out of the issue. It caught my eye more than any other element of the book. Tyler Kirkman really does a great version of Wonder Woman. Obviously the pairing of Wonder Woman and Superman is solid but there is still a bit of substance that is missing from this series so far as its been almost all action to this point.

The art still stands out. Wonder Woman continues to look really great in this Action Comics series but there really isn't a whole lot more going here that is really that cool. The story tries to go for the heart strings in the middle of the issue but it just doesn't work because the dialogue is so cliched. Even Superman's thoughts while he is fighting Doomsday are really stupid and have absolutely no depth. They also thrown Superwoman in there for absolutely no reason. She has nothing to do and she's only there to try and sell her own book that came out today. Good try DC but I'm not buying it.

The corny dialogue is fixed and kept to a minimum after the last issue but I didn't think this resolution was that great. Superman kind of remembers this way to defeat Doomsday that he could've discovered a few issues back. There are some pretty solid dramatic character moments including a small conversation between Lex Luthor and Superman that provides some motivation for him becoming a costumed super hero.

This book gets this series back on track after the last arc was kind of hit or miss and there were more questions than answers. This book tries to explain why there is a powerless Clark Kent on Earth now and whole new Superman that seems to be alive and well. It is really just a day in the life of reporter Clark Kent and it is a whole new story compared to what we got with the Doomsday fight in the last arc.

This is the best action comics book so far. We finally get to learn a bit more about this powerless Clark Kent and he and Superman finally spend some time together and clear up some of the mysteries that have been plaguing this title for too long. Kent and Superman don't understand why the other exists and don't trust each other. Kent's article at the end of the book is very solid as well. Classic Superman.

I hope this isn't a story that goes on for too long but it is pretty solid. It makes sense that Lois should get a little more attention for a little while so her character can get reestablished in this universe. Not quite enough Superman for my taste.

Lois Lane is the focal point of this story for two issues in a row. The art continues to really impress me as a very optimistic story. There is some interesting depth to Lois Lane that we don't always get in this book and its nice to see her back where she feels important.

Action Comics (2016) #967

The cover probably isn't the best choice for representation of this story. Superman and Lex Luthor don't exactly team up here. They don't even interact at all. There are two separate conversations between Luthor and Lois Lane and Superman and Superboy that make this issue very worthy of a read.

9.5
Alias (2001) #1

Jun 13, 2016

Alias #1 is going to be a slow burn but its very intriguing. The first issue get the reader hooked to Jessica Jones without revealing much about her past outside of the fact that she is a former hero. Luke Cage makes an appearance which is cool. Alias is probably never going to feel like an action packed comic but the art is really cool and really sets the tone of the story. Its essentially an R rated comic book.

The art is still really cool but the content of this issue feels a little bit like filler. There is a good final twist that caught me but this issue does lull a little bit at spots.

What an awesome issue! This book continues to be a great character study of the awesome Jessica Jones. Each issues builds more onto her mystery as a woman and a former hero. There is a great conversation between her and a detective that adds a lot more depth to her character. There are also some appearances by some of Marvel`s more noticeable characters. Brian Michael Bendis writes his best issue to date.

There is not as much insight into Jessica Jones' character in this issue but it continues to keep the story interesting with Jones continuing to follow this case and her involvement in it. The art continues to impress me and I remain interested in the story.

This book wraps up the arc and the art is amazing once again but the story doesn't have the amazing dialogue that it has had in other issues. Another major Marvel character makes an appearance as well in what is the most interesting part of the book.

Not an exciting issue at all but I found it very entertaining. There is a great conversation between Jessica Jones and Carol Danvers that is just really well written and adds a lot more depth to their characters. Jessica Jones has always remained a very interesting character to me. The art remains awesome and this last few pages tease an ongoing story for the next few issues.

This issue is just a little too loopy. It seems like for most of the book we are just tredding water in the same place. Rick Jones obviously has some issues but his dialogue is so crazy that its hard to understand him. The art is still incredible and I'm at least intrigued about Rick Jones, but this could've been better.

A nice wrap up to an arc that was not as good as the first story. All that confusion regarding Rick Jones is all resolved as well as this other case Jones has been working on as a side project. There is one scene in this book in a coffee shop that is so good that it feels almost cinematic and that is reason I love this book so much.

This issue is very unconventional as it really reads like a play with illustration on every page. It was cool of Bendis to try and do something a little different but the style got a little tired. I was interested enough in the story although it really doesn't tell a lot about Jessica Jones. The dialogue is well written and the art is good, I just hope they don't make a habit out of doing this style.

Another great mystery issue that feels very much like a movie with Jessica Jones going to a new town in order to find a missing girl. All the discussions between Jones and these new characters are interesting. Most of the issue gives off the vibe that this kid is completely normal and finally in the final frame we see why Jessica Jones is there.

We are another few steps closer to figuring out the mystery of the disappearance of Rebecca. Jessica continues to follow what few leads she has and she also gets personal with the sheriff. There are even a few frames that finally begin to show something about Jones' career as a super hero before she became a private investigator.

As cool issue that shows a little more into the hero side of Jessica Jones. She is a woman that will stand up for what she believes in if she needs to. The art is a stand out once again and I'm looking forward to seeing how this arc will wrap in in the final issue.

Alias (2001) #14

Sep 20, 2016

This arc has been very interesting to this point and this may be the best issue of the whole story. It is very dramatic and cinematic. There is a very long monologue from a new character that provides about 4 or 5 issues worth of depth in one 22 page issue. There is a pretty dramatic turn at the end as well.

Alias (2001) #15

Sep 23, 2016

Another really good stand alone issue. This book really just stands on its own and you don't have to read any other issues before this to enjoy it. The issue is basically composed of two conversations one between Jones and Luke Cage and one between Jones and Scott Lang. Both are great and the art is as great as it has been for the whole series.

The interesting start to a new arc with a lot of interesting character from earlier on in the series returning. I like the tease that J Jonah is involved in this. His character really translates to an essentially R-rated comic. Scott Lang makes an interesting appearance as well. He's one of the only characters in the book that are truly likeable.

Its still a great book but not as good as a lot of the other issues have been. The art and dialogue are still very good as they pretty much always are but this issue just doesn't quite feel like I am watching a film unfold before my eyes like most of this series has.

Alias (2001) #20

Sep 29, 2016

The team up with Jessica Drew really works in this issue of Alias. Not only is her relationship to J Jonah Jameson revealed finally but there is a bit of humanity shown to JJ as well. Not something you see very often. Everything should wrap up pretty nicely in the next issue.

10
Alias (2001) #21

Sep 29, 2016

Another really great issue as the icing on the cake of a really good arc. This book actually has a bit more action than most of the other issues. There are quite a few scene changes and several really memorable discussions between Jessica Jones and her allies. With some foreshadowing towards her origin which is coming in the next issue.

Alias (2001) #22

Sep 30, 2016

After 22 mostly amazing issues we finally get to learn more about the powers of Jessica Jones. This issue shows that Jessica has been around super powered beings for a lot of her life before acquiring her own. The art has a bit of a different look but it still really works. Some of this information was long overdue so its great to see.

10
Alias (2001) #23

Sep 30, 2016

This issue show even more about how Jessica Jones became who she is today. I do wish that this story would last a little longer so we good get a bigger taste of what made her quit crime fighting but its definitely cool to look back on the character before she was jaded.

Finally we get to the part of this series that heavily inspired the Jessica Jones tv series. This book really sets up all the abilities of Killgrave without even having him appear in the book. It really just takes the issue to set up Jessica's fear of him and all the victims that have suffered from his deeds.

10
Alias (2001) #25

Oct 3, 2016

This is one of the best issues in this series. Possibly the best. It shows the audience a lot about why Jessica Jones is the way she is and what Killgrave did to her when she was under his control. It is very different from the show but it still is really bad and it paints a great picture of how crazy and terrible the villain is. Its also a treat to have Luke Cage back as well. The happy looking Jewel story that gives some backstory or Killgrave is very cool as well. The art is so good.

10
Alias (2001) #26

Oct 3, 2016

Nothing more than greatness. There are plenty of classic Marvel characters involved in this issue but it still remains solely a Jessica Jones story and now that we have cleared up her rocky past you can't help but love her character. The change in art occurs again when Jean Grey enters Jessica's head and that really works as well. This may go down as the great arc in the series if Bendis can keep the quality up.

10
Alias (2001) #27

Oct 3, 2016

The tensions are very high and Jessica Jones is on the brink of going insane. We finally get to see Killgrave interact with her and a big event occurs in this issue that will almost certainly force the two together and things are really going to go down then.

Alias (2001) #28

Oct 3, 2016

The Killgrave finale doesn't really take as much time as I thought it would but this book has about as happy of an ending that a character like Jessica Jones can have. I have enjoyed this series so much all the way through I'm so happy that it was able to end on a pretty high note as well. THis is some of Brian Michael Bendis' best stuff.

All-New All-Different Avengers #0

Jun 16, 2016

I found this issue very boring. There are plenty of noteworthy Marvel characters in any of the Avengers groups but they used most of them so little or not at all. The best parts of the issue were Vision's conversation Scarlet Witch and Deadpool's change of heart with Steve Rogers help. I could do without almost everything else.

8.5
All-New All-Different Avengers #1

Jun 17, 2016

Now that this issue is focusing more on one Avenger team rather than 4 or 5 at once I feel like I could really enjoy this story. The issue is a combination of two story so the whole team doesn't exactly form in this issue but a few of them do first come into contact with them. Most of these characters are my favorites like Sam Wilson and Ms Marvel. So I'm engaged for sure.

All-New All-Different Avengers #2

Jun 17, 2016

Mark Waid set up some pretty good action and altercations between characters in the first issue. Issue 2 is mostly on the same level. The establishment of this new Avengers team does seem like it is going to happen very quickly but the buildup has been good so far.

All-New All-Different Avengers #3

Jul 11, 2016

This issue was a fairly quick action packed read. There is not a lot of interesting content its mostly just a battle and it even feels a bit rushed. The story finally does bring this group together and they do acknowledge themselves as an Avengers team.

8.0
All-New All-Different Avengers #4

Jul 25, 2016

This issue mostly feels like its own stand alone story. The art on the cover is hardly a significant part of the story. A new villain is basically fought and defeated in this new issue. I do enjoy the interactions of this new Avenger team and I have consistently had fun with their issues so far.

7.5
All-New All-Different Avengers #5

Aug 16, 2016

The conflict between the Avengers in issue 5 feels very rushed. There is a lot of conflict that pops up almost out of no where. The actual fighting is solid but this issue is nothing to write home about. Its just an enjoyable read for the fans of this title.

All-New All-Different Avengers #6

Aug 29, 2016

Another pretty entertaining Avengers story. Hopefully this finishes the weak Nova and Ms. Marvel feud and we also see what the issue has been with the Vision over the past couple of books. I still enjoy the art and showdown is pretty cool to watch unfold. Its no where near the best Marvel series right now but I continue to enjoy it on a consistent basis.

All-New All-Different Avengers #7

Sep 22, 2016

I'm not a fan of Marvel's over usage of crossovers. There are some fun moments but I don't find the ending to make any sense and I'm not interested in reading Uncanny Avengers (the weaker Avenger title) in order to hear the next step.

All-New All-Different Avengers #8

Oct 13, 2016

I didn't understand everything that went on in this issue because I refuse to read Avengers Standoff because I don't want to read the other Avenger books. The ending was fairly well done but other than that this book was forgettable. I can't wait for this crossover to end and we can get back to a story that I'll enjoy.

All-New All-Different Avengers #9

Nov 15, 2016

Not a lot happens in this issue outside of some information given about the new version of Wasp. The art is pretty good but this doesn't really become anything more than a introduction issue that doesn't even attempt to set up the arc until the final pages.

All-New Captain America #1

Jun 11, 2016

Sam Wilson proves to be worthy of the name Captain America in the All-New Captain America issue 1. All the facts that you need to know to read this comic are on the very first page and then you are all up to date and should be able to enjoy it to the fullest. There is a little bit of a subs plot involving Sam Wilson's family. I like that the new Captain America has Nomad as a sidekick. There is a lot of good humor in here that reminds me a lot of the Falcon from the MCU. Its really just a fun time. Sorry Steve Rogers but I don't really miss you.

10
All-New Captain America #2

Jun 11, 2016

The New Captain America and Nomad were in a pretty rough spot at the end of the first issue of the All New Captain America comic. There are appearances from several big villains, most notably Zemo and Crossbones. There are several huge and really surprising reveals throughout the whole story (including the ending). This conflict is the real deal and Rick Remender has done such a great job of hooking us with this new Captain American so quickly. It really feels like there is no way out for Sam Wilson.

9.0
All-New Captain America #3

Jun 13, 2016

The stakes remain high in the All New Captain America series. Sam Wilson's character continues to develop and we learn more about him. The daughter of the Red Skull makes an appearance and she really shines in this issue and Sam Wilson really takes a beating mentally. The only issue is that it may hang around too long just by a frame or two but this issue really felt like a film unfolding before your eyes. Way to go again Rick Remender. The artwork is solid once again as well.

9.5
All-New Captain America #4

Jun 13, 2016

This issue of All New Captain America takes you a long distance but it doesn't feel unnecessarily far. This series has felt like a film like very few comics I have seen to this point. This issue involves a lot of emotion. It really shows that Sam Wilson is just as worthy of the name Captain America as Steve Rogers is. He shows that he cares deeply for mankind and his friend Rogers. Zemo remains solid again in a villain role and the back half of this arc seems to be headed in a very interesting direction.

8.0
All-New Captain America #5

Jun 13, 2016

The conflict between Baron Zemo and Sam Wilson's Captain America didn't wrap up exactly like I planned it would. This issue doesn't quite hold up to the others that we have already gotten. This issue would've been a great opportunity to close the arc but instead it goes for one issue too long.

8.5
All-New Captain America #6

Jun 13, 2016

I didn't feel like this issue was an essential but the final issue of Rick Remender's All New Captain America story is still pretty fun. It wraps up Sam Wilson's struggles with his past and he finally comes to terms with the hero he is. There is a slight twist at the end of this book which isn't really as significant as it should be but All New Captain America is a great story and I recommend it to any Cap fan.

7.5
All-Star Batman #1

Aug 17, 2016

All Star Batman is a large issue with 2 stories. Both of them are solid but not excellent. The dialogue between Batman and Harvey Dent was probably the stand out of the book as a whole. Scott Snyder knows Batman and I was expecting a little more from his first issue considering he maybe has a little more control over the character this time.

7.0
All-Star Batman #2

Sep 19, 2016

This series hasn't been living up to Scott Snyder's reputation with Batman. The qulaity isn't good enough to be paying the extra dollar for 10 more pages. I don't really get where this fits into the continuity. The Two-Face story was interesting but the secondary story just didn't seem that impressive.

8.5
All-Star Batman #3

Oct 12, 2016

The better Batman book this week. Batman takes some time to explain a story about him an Harvey Dent that was really interesting and there are some flashbacks that tie in to the present day story. This issue is probably the best issue of this series so far. Scott Snyder is returning to his form from the New 52.

Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #1

Aug 12, 2016

Awesome issue. Peter Parker is back in his body and now its time for him to clean up his life again after Otto Octavius took over. Dan Slott proved with the last issue of Superior Spider-Man that he could write for Peter Parker and he does very well. All those extra issues in this book are icing on the cake. Some is worth reading so of its not but there appears to be a lot of fun to be had in this new Spider-Man series.

Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #1.1

Aug 12, 2016

I don't really like the though of a Spider-Man: Year One story mostly because people already knew the stories behind Spidey's origin but this issue was a lot more enjoyable than I though. Uncle Ben's death was left out of it and Peter is already Spider-Man he just isn't really sure where he wants to go with his powers. There are still a lot familiar notes though. Its a fun issue, might be a little too same ole same old for some fans that really know the character.

Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #1.2

Aug 26, 2016

Its a very simple issue with writing that is almost comparable to the classic Stan Lee run. Its been done already but its no less sweet. This issue even occurs right in the middle of Spider-Man's origin days. Dan Slott continues to prove that he can write a mean Spidey book.

These decimal issues have been pretty good to start out. Dan Slott once again proves that he is a true Spider-Man fans as both he and the artist Ramon K. Perez deliver another good throwback to the old Stan Lee/Jack Kirby Spidey stories. The battles in these books continue to lack a little depth. These fights between Spider-Man and Clash are really not on a high level.

Probably the most fun issue of this Learning to Crawl story line. I've very interested to see what happens to Clash in this next issue. He makes a pretty good villain because he is really unlikeable. This issue really does feel like an old Stan Lee book. Betty Brant and JJ have a pretty big involvement and it just a good Spider-Man story for fans of the character. I'm interested to see how it concludes with 1.5.

The Learning to Crawl arc that ran just a little too long has finally come to an end. The big problem that I have with this issue is that we got no explanation about why Clash has never return to fight Spider-Man ever again. The rest of this book is really fun. I'm really to stick to present day for a little while though.

Its most story than action and that is the way it should be for Amazing Spider-Man number 2. Its going to take a few issues for everything to clear up in Peter Parkers life and an interesting conflict with Electro appears to be on its way. A character that hasn't got much attention since Otto Octavius was Spider-Man. I'm glad they decided to keep Ana Maria in this series as I like her a lot as a character.

I know about the tension between Spider-Man and Black Cat because I read Superior Spider-Man and that makes this issue way easier to understand. I like that Spider-Man has to team up with Mary Jane's new boyfriend. The firefighter, Olie. The fight with Black Cat was definitely a little underwhelming but she will probably have a pivotal role in this arc later.

It serves as a tie in to the Original Sin story but fortunately they keep Dan Slott in control rather than hand the reigns over to Jason Aaron for this issue. Silk is finally introduced after being teased for the whole series. Despite having a similar way of gaining powers to Spider-Man Silk has a completely different backstory and this character has peaked my interest so far.

Another Original Sin tie in that fits into the Spider-Man series perfectly. There is a little more development into the relationship between Silk and Spider-Man and the Black Cat and Electro show that they make a good team. They really mean business in this issue with a powerful ending that will likely be bait for the next issue but you never really know.

The wrap up is not as good as the climax but Issue 6 is still a good read for fans of Spider-Man. I continue to be very interested in Cindy Moon AKA Silk.

Kamala Khan is one of my favorite characters in all of comics so I am always interested when she is featured in a book. This comic was not as cool as I'd hoped it'd be as the issue cuts away from a Peter Parker/ Spider-Man story to a new story that explains what is to come in Spider-Verse. I've heard good things about this story line so hopefully it can strengthen as it goes.

I was really impressed by this issue. The interactions between Ms Marvel and Spider-Man are better. Both characters have a lot of similarities anyway so it is really cool to see them paired together. I was also really impressed by Clayton Cole making an appearance in the present after Dan Slott created him for the Learning to Crawl arc that took place in the past. I'm really looking forward to seeing what will happen with him now that he will begin collaborating with Peter Parker.

This book serves as the begining to the Spider-Verse story but still focuses mainly on Peter Parker and there is even a small appearance from Miles Morales. The secondary issue is fine but the main issue is awesome. All these Spider-Men in one place and its kind of an overload of characters but it works because Peter Parker is as confused as we are. Its also a pretty funny issue.

The is still a little bit of confusion because this issue is so overloaded with Spider characters but this Spider-Verse story remains really fun. I'm glad that Slott decided to include the Superior Spider-Man as we will likely learn more about how he is in the story as we go. I think this Spider-Verse story is great for any Spider-Man fan regardless of which Earth he is from.

Spider-Verse continues to really work as an event. I'm impressed that this story remains so clear to the people who chose not to read all the tie in issues. If you do want some more depth to the situation then you are welcome to do so but you aren't any worse off just reading the main story. The fight between the Amazing and Superior Spider-Men is cool but I like that they have included Doc Ock's version of Spider in this universe because he is a great variation on the character.

This book is not quite as clear with who is which Spider-Man. Sometimes I'm unsure if I'm seeing the 616 Peter Parker or not. There is still a lot going on in this book but its still very interesting. The reveal at the end is incredibly huge too. Its so big I don't believe that it can be true.

The big reveal of Uncle Ben being alive is dialed back a bit as we find out that he is from another world as I expected. It is cool to see a version of the character that is a little different than the one we know. Silk and Spider-Gwen get a few cool moments in this book while Peter Parker picks his jaw of the floor and really doesn't do much.

I found this to be a fairly solid ending. It didn't really feel too sloppy considering how many characters have been involved in this thing. There may have been a few things that went over my head because I have avoided the tie ins but I enjoyed the story essentially all the way through. Silk and Superior Spider-Man really stand out in this issue. As much as I like this story I did feel like its time to wrap up as well. Lets get back to 616.

This was a really fun book. All the relationships that the spiders have developed with each other have to be put on hold for another time. There are some moments that describe what will happen with some of the characters that we may not see again or any time soon and it does a great job of setting up some solo series for the characters that really came into their own over the course of this event.

The book picks right up where Peter Parker left off before Spider-Verse and there isn't a whole lot of memorable Spider-Man moments but it moves Peter Parker's story forward. It looks like Black Cat may be getting even more attention coming as substories the main issue.

This book feels more like a Watanabe book than a Spider-Man book. This may have something to do with Dan Slott taking some time to better set up Parker Industries. The book is interesting enough it just feels like a B level book. A little below Spider-Man.

The score for this issue would've been lower had it not been for the Black Cat story that its catching my attention more as it goes. The focus on Parker Industries has been kind of boring. None of the conflict in this book feels that significant. Its just Peter Parker stuck in another situation where he can't change into Spider-Man without anyone seeing him.

This team up between Spider-Man and Wraith is a lot stronger than the first issue. Spider-Man is really well written and feels like the classic character that we all know. The villain still isn't quite there for me but the overall story really works. I'm interested to see how this will end.

Hopefully this is the end of the Parker Industries stuff for a little while. This book is not exactly the end of this series but it is the end of this story and its fun but its not the conclusion that you want. There is a great moment between Spider-Man and Aunt May and this Black Cat story which hasn't been that believable finally ends.

This mob story just still feels a little below the Spider-Man character. Why can't we get some more classic villains involved. The fight between Spidey and Black Cat has this minor resolution that doesn't really explain what happened in Issue 18. I know it takes place before, but it just doesn't quite make sense.

This is a pretty good first issue although this is not a jumping on point for new readers. This Spider-Man and Peter Parker is completely different from the one casual fans are familiar with. It took me a little while to get used to where Peter Parker is now but outside of that the issue was very solid. I'm not sure about what I think of a second Spider-Man but we'll just have to see where Slott takes it. I didn't read all the back up issues, there wasn't enough content in each of these stories to make them worth reading anyway.

I must say that its a little different to see Spider-Man using all this fancy tech and Peter Parker being a Tony Stark like character is very unfamiliar to me but teaming Spider-Man up with Prowler is interesting. Their dialogue is probably the best part about this book.

The team up with Johnny Storm is what makes this a fairly solid issue. Peter Parker buying the Baxter Building is a cool idea and its nice to see that they will keep that structure in the Marvel family without the Fantastic Four around. The fight was a little underwhelming but the ending was pretty interesting.

If the rest of this series can keep up the quality of this issue then I'll be happy. This comic shows that the real Peter Parker that we know before he got famous is still very much alive. It really shows that at heart is still the hero that he always was. There are a few subplots that are introduced as well that are bound to result in some fun in the upcoming books.

The villains aren't anything special and it seems like this arc has lost me a little bit. I don't need Peter Parker to be the rich leader of a company anymore. It just doesn't feel like him now. I'd like to see some familiar villains make a return in the next couple issues because the collaboration with S.H.I.E.L.D was getting tiring.

Dan Slott has proved that he knows Spider-Man and this mini series seems to be perfect for fans of his writing but also fans of the classic Spider-Man characters. Slott hasn't utilized much of the classic Spider-Man villains in his last series and now he takes the character back to where we know him best.

Regent finally shows himself off as a force. We get to see a same of Annie May's power and there is an appearance from a surviving group of heroes under the Avenger name but other than that this is a bit of a lukewarm issue. Its kind of the calm before the storm.

Aquaman (2011) #1

Jul 15, 2016

Geoff Johns knows DC characters and the first issue of Aquaman's new 52 title tries to erase the public's perception of Aquaman for new readers. Even the DC universe views Aquaman as a usless joke in this comic and he tries to clear up a lot of misconceptions of his abilities. There is not a lot of action to start out this story but its a great jumping on point if you want to read Aquaman.

It mix of action and mystery. These terrifying and mysterious creatures have appeared and Aquaman leans on an ally/enemy in order to learn more about the underwater creatures and where they came from. None of the characters main villains appear to be involved but the book remains a cool mystery.

The first issue of Aquaman really takes you pretty far considering the length of the comic. The story is somewhat political but those elements remain very simple. The action comes later in the issue and it delivers as well. So far Aquaman is one of the more impressive Rebirth titles.

Aquaman continues to be one of my favorite titles of Rebirth so far. The story moves along at a great pace. This issue takes you so far with so little.

This Aquaman comic is my early favorite of all the Rebirth titles so far (although I have yet to read Batman yet). There is a great mix of action and story to this point.

Issue 5 is mostly an action issue. This arc is lasting a little longer than it needs to. Mera and Arthur are not exactly seeing eye to eye. Their conflict makes things interesting. The N.E.M.O stuff didn't really feel that necessary this time but we'll see where it goes from here.

Sep 7, 2016

An action packed but also emotional issue for Aquaman. Sending Superman in for the finale of this solid arc is the icing on the cake for The Drowning. Aquaman expresses issues with the Justice League as he feels like the odd one out and he is the hero that is always frowned upon regardless of what he tries to do. Its a really strong message that results in the frayed relationship between Aquaman and Superman.

Nov 2, 2016

This book has no Aquaman in it outside of some visions/flashbacks/etc. This is really a Mera story and I really enjoy that character. I found the first half to be a bit weaker than the second but it does set up some cool mythology for Atlantis. This prophecy will almost certainly be ignored and lead to a big disaster.

Aquaman: Rebirth #1

Jun 10, 2016

Aquaman Rebirth is such a great jumping on point for new readers. Many people are aware of the character and make fun of how useless he supposedly is. This comic displays Aquaman as a misunderstood super human that can not be accepted by either land or sea. The conflict in the story was fairly minor but it does do an excellent job of setting up Aquaman for what will be coming in his new ongoing series.

Kitty Pryde continues to be my favorite character in this series. Whedon really understand her character and he manages to make her one of the most bad ass that I have ever read. The issue is comprised of Kitty searching for her son? Maybe or maybe not. There is some more development with the Hellfire club and an awesome twist to end the issue. This arc continues to improve issue by issue.

Scott Snyder seems to just get Batman. Same with Capullo who creates such a great atmosphere for the character.

I can't wait to read on and learn more.

Batman (2011) #3

Sep 15, 2016

This continues to really impress me. Scott Snyder continues to present one of the most ideal portrayals of Batman ever to grace a comic book page. Batman continues to put this case together piece by piece and even though the story moves very slowly it remains interesting through the whole read. The Court of Owls is real and Batman has no idea how he's missed them.

The Court of Owls are continuing to be a very interesting villain despite not really challenging Batman on a physical level yet. This is the World Greatest Detective at his best.

Scott Snyder can't seem to give us any less than greatness with this Court of Owls book. I knew it was going to be good but its still completely surpassed by expectations.

The first few pages are a little wacky and its not a very good way to start. I know some moments in this arc can be up for interpretation but I found that moment to be really out of place but once you get back on board with the other 3/4s of the book it is excellent. Nightwing appears and Batman has some pretty big news for him. One of the best reveals in the arc.

This story involving the Court of Owls remains to be good quality just not quite as awesome as the first few books were. Bruce Wayne is forced to make a stand in his own house.

Batman is only a supporting character in this book. Its really more of an introduction to Harper Row. Who will almost certainly become a key player in the coming issues. Harper is a strong and confident character who becomes fascinated with Batman after he saves her brother from being beaten

Batman (2011) Annual #1

Oct 20, 2016

This story feels like a bit of an interlude from the Night of Owls story with a small tie in. We get Mr. Freezes New 52 origin. His conflict with Batman is quite good with a cool reveal coming towards the end that shocked me quite a bit. This doesn't quite tie in the to Night of Owls like you would expect but a very good annual story.

There is definitely some great art in this issue. The story is really just Batman being Batman but the reveal at the end of this issue shows that the book could really go anywhere at this point. Tom King's got a lot of potential with this story.

I'm glad we got a little more insight to Gotham and Gotham girl in this issue as they seem to be a major part of this series right now. There is not a whole lot of action going on right now but I like that these new heroes are trying to replicate Batman's ability to protect the city. I think there is some pretty significant drama coming soon though.

These new Gotham characters continue to really impress me. The tone and art of this book have been so on point to so far in this series and I've really enjoyed Tom Kings writing. The final frame of this book gets me so excited for the next issue which may be the best yet.

I'm finally all caught up on Batman. This issue brings the I am Gotham arc to an end. With appearances from the Justice League. The art is very well done once again and the dialogue is as good as any other issue in this series so far. The ending is a bit of a shocker and it looks like this series is about to go in a completely different direction now.

There may not quite be enough Batman but I really enjoyed this issue. Gotham Girl has gone completely insane since the death of her brother. I'm interested to she if she and Batman will remain allies. The art remains to be a high point of this title. Hopefully the end of this arc will result in a bit more attention for Batman.

Sep 21, 2016

I don't think its quite as good as Kings first arc on Batman but its a strong kickoff to the Night of the Monster Men kick off. There were a lot of hints towards this story in the first Batman arc and it builds on both Batman's standalone story and detective comics. There is a high ceiling for this story. Especially when we find out who's involved.

There are some pretty cool moments in this issue that show Batman's group's ability to team up and help each other. Duke Thomas is probably the stand out of the issue. Seeing Batman get a boost from Clayface was a pretty cool moment as well. This arc should be heading towards a close in the nest few issues.

Batman (2016) #10

Nov 2, 2016

Batman's character was pretty lame throughout this book as all he did was recite the same lines throughout the comic. I'm not that familiar with the Batman continuity so I wasn't sure who the narrator was for most of the comic but once I caught on everything started to make sense. This issue feels more like connecting tissue than an issue filled with important content. Hopefully it will improve with the next issue.

The look into Batman's relationship with Catwoman is interesting but I just didn't think it was quite enough to carry the whole comic. Outside of that letter that is read through the whole book there really isn't anything else worth noting.

May 2, 2017

The battle between Batman and Bane never really reaches the level it could have. There isn't anything particularly wrong with the issue it just doesn't make the impact it should. I found this arc to take a bit a drop. Hopefully King can get it under control in the next arc.

This book is entertaining enough. Watching Batman and Catwoman team up for dozens of fights across the city is fine but their one final night together is what makes this issue so interesting. I'd expect an interesting twist in the next issue.

May 5, 2017

This book has a bit of an unorthodox narrative compared to the first issue of this story but I found it to be great. Batman and Catwoman's relationship isn't often done better than it is here. There was one line of Batman's dialogue that really bothered me and it just didn't feel right but apart from that I'd say this is another great effort from Tom King.

Tom King does do some pretty original stuff with this issue. I thought that fast food restaurant scene was amazing and pretty funny as well. The final reveal was cool but far too far fetched for it to ever be permanent. Oh well, the shock was there for a second.

Batman (2016) Annual #1

Batman Beyond: Rebirth #1

Sep 28, 2016

Its a solid kick off issue. Its not as approachable to new readers as it could be but Terry's relationship with Bruce Wayne is somewhat explained and there is some interesting plot points in the mix as well. I don't know if I'll follow this book that closely or not but its started well.

Black Dynamite #1

Sep 21, 2016

The humor of the show doesn't really make much sense in the pages of a comic book. A random appearance by Alex Haley would've been a lot funnier in the cartoon or movie. There is really not a whole lot of story here considering its the first issue. I'm a fan of the character so I did get some enjoyment out of it but not like I thought.

Black Hammer #1

Jul 25, 2016

This is a great original work. Its almost like an adult version of the Incredibles. The art really suits the dark and negative tone of the characters. The dynamic between these new characters really work too. All the characters even get introduced in a fairly simple manner and it feels like we know them well when the comic wraps up. I'm 100% immersed in this universe already.

Black Hammer #2

Aug 18, 2016

This book continues to really impress me. It still feels like a more depressing version of the Incredibles. I like that we learn a bit more back story to the characters in this issue but it also moves the story in present day forward as well. It seems like we will get origins on each character as we go along. I think every comic book fan should be reading Black Hammer right now. Its an easy book to jump right into.

Black Hammer #3

Sep 21, 2016

Jeff Lemire has me completely on board with this new Black Hammer title. It seems like he is going to give us an origin on each character for the first 5 or 6 issues. Each of these characters don't feel like they are stolen from another company. They are original and they are interesting. Each character has their own set of issues. This time it is Barbalien.

Black Hammer #4

Oct 19, 2016

Abraham Slam is mostly the focal point of this issue but it just isn't quite the level that I hoped it would be. I like the idea of an outsider coming over for diner with this crazy and unorthodox family but I just didn't find much addition to the characters like the other issues gave. Still a very good comic. Its just not excellent last the past issues.

Black Panther (2016) #1

May 1, 2017

If you enjoyed Black Panther and Civil War and are looking to jump on to his books this may not be the best spot. The dialogue is a little elaborate for first time readers and Wakanda is in a bit of a hole to start of this issue. It may become a bit more reader friendly later on but we'll see.

Black Panther (2016) #2

May 1, 2017

Black Widow (2016) #1

May 31, 2016

Mark Waid's new Black Widow comic really kicks off with a bang. The first page gives us our conflict and then the rest of the comic is composed of a high stakes chase. Its a great set up for an arc as they still have so much story to tell but Waid gave us some cool action to get us hooked right off the bat.

Black Widow (2016) #2

May 31, 2016

It doesn't bring many more answers about why Natasha had a falling out with S.H.I.E.L.D but Black Widow issue 2 piles on some more interesting mystery. I'm not in love with the art but I do find the story fairly intriguing so far.

Jul 27, 2016

Mark Waid has done a very good job with this Black Widow series considering how little dialogue there is but this is the issue where it hits a bit of a snag. The story is progressing but we haven't got a lot from Black Widow to make us care about what happens in this issue. Its still fun but it needs a bit more substance.

Briggs Land #1

Briggs Land #2

Nov 3, 2016

Cage (2016) #1

Oct 14, 2016

I thought this was a very fun issue. Its very simple and it puts Cage back in the detective role that he had in the original series. I'd assume this series isn't really considered canon as its set in the 1970's but we get some more classic characters that just appear out of the blue for hardly any other reason than to me the reader laugh. I'm very intrigued by this book and it has a very "Saturday morning cartoon art style".

Captain America: Sam Wilson #1

Jun 13, 2016

It's maybe a pretty good building block for a story but the first issue of Captain America: Sam Wilson just isn't that fun. Its setting up a story that is a little different and may be more interesting further down the line though. I thought there was a lot of goof humor in this issue and the last frame has a different twist that will be interesting to see in the next issue.

8.0
Captain America: Sam Wilson #2

Jun 14, 2016

This new issue really does a great job of giving the new Captain America (Sam Wilson) a different identity from Steve Rogers. Steve Rogers has been brought back to his natural age when he lost his serum but he still played a big role in this issue. There is some cool conflict between Wilson and Rogers, the pair who were once inseparable friends. Wilson doesn't know whether to trust S.H.I.E.L.D or not and this issue is a strong improvement over the first issue.

10
Captain America: Sam Wilson #3

Jun 16, 2016

Really fun issue. It is fairly self contained as pretty much stands on its own. Obviously the appearance by Cap Wolf is what makes the issue so fun. Doctor Malus served as a pretty cool villain. Both he and Misty Knight throw in some really good humor as well. The best book in the series so far in my opinion.

7.5
Captain America: Sam Wilson #4

Jun 21, 2016

Its lacking a little in the action department but issue 4 does push the story along a little farther with a pretty cool twist at the end. The Cap Wolf story arc continues it just doesn't reach the entertainment value that the last issue had.

6.5
Captain America: Sam Wilson #5

Jul 11, 2016

The New Falcon tease on the cover is really not as relevant as you would expect when you read this book. Falcon is not costumed at all in this issue and it's more of a focus on him than it is Sam Wilson. The villain is kind of lame in the issue and outside of the Mad Men joke I found the dialogue to be mediocre. I'm still into this story it just doesn't impress me like some of the other issues have.

Captain America: Sam Wilson #6

Aug 8, 2016

There might be a little too much political talk but Captain American: Sam Wilson finally gets a better look at who will be the new Falcon and the Cap-Wolf story comes to an end. This issue brings the arc to a solid close after they hit a bit of a snag last time.

Captain America: Sam Wilson #7

Sep 29, 2016

I found this book to be a little too long and a little disjointed but the book really serves as a love letter to Steve Rogers. Bucky and Sam are only involved for about the first 10 pages and the rest of the book belongs to Steve Rogers. He gets some moments to reflect on his life which makes sense for a 75th anniversary issue. It ends like we all expect it to end but that doesn't make it any less sweet.

7.5
Captain America: Sam Wilson #8

Oct 18, 2016

I haven't read every Standoff tie in so this issue does a pretty good job of getting the reader up to date with what has happened so far. Steve Roger's has returned to his young age once again, but they don't really give him or Sam Wilson enough time to shine. They focus too much on the group of villains outside of a cool moment between Bucky, Sam and Steve. It does serve as a pretty solid set up to what will likely come in the finale of Standoff.

8.0
Captain America: Sam Wilson #9

Nov 10, 2016

This is a pretty solid wrap up to the Standoff story. Steve Rogers has gotten a lot of attention in the past few issues of this series and Sam Wilson has taken a back seat. Wilson is back in the fron for this issue that focuses on the fallout of the Standoff story but it also gives a more in depth look into what's going on with Sam now that Steve Rogers has returned to his peak form.

8.5
Captain America: Sam Wilson #10

Aug 25, 2017

This issue doesn't have much action but its certainly gives a lot of exploration into the Sam Wilson character and that's what its all about. Rhodey's funeral ends up being a very good moment that a wide assortment of superheroes shared.

Captain America: Steve Rogers #1

May 31, 2016

Due to the amount of buzz this issue had around it I had the first issue of Captain America: Steve Rogers spoiled almost a week before I got a copy. I really enjoy the art. There are a few too many moments that take away from Cap. I was kind of disappointed that there was not Sam Wilson in this issue after he was on the cover too. The storyline taking place in two different time frames was really interesting though and I wasn't bothered by the big reveal because I am still pretty new to comics. I feel like this storyline could be really interesting if its done right I just hope for a slight improvement for next issue.

7.5
Captain America: Steve Rogers #2

Aug 19, 2016

At first I found this issue to be a bit of a mess because time frame that this issue is set in isn't explained very well but eventually it all comes together. I think they are explaining the Hydra Cap event too quickly. It would've been nice to have this unfold a couple issues down the road.

Champions (2016) #1

Aug 29, 2017

There isn't a lot of strength to the reasoning that these characters get together in the first place. There is also no Scott Summers in this comic at all, but there are some good character moments and the story takes a darker turn than you would expect considering this is a book aimed at younger audiences. There is some potential here.

DC Universe: Rebirth #1

Jun 6, 2016

I've never read a DC Comic before so I thought that DC Universe Rebirth would be a great opportunity to jump on and read some comics from their best characters. This one off is not exactly the most clear on some of its story points because there is so much that I have not read but I really enjoyed this story. Wally West was great and his whole adventure was really cool. I'm sure that things will be explained better in the companion issues. Obviously there are some pretty cool reveals that everyone is talking about. I think it is about time that we get to see those characters in a universe with the rest of DC's characters and I'm really interested to see what goes on with the core group of heroes after this story.

Deadpool & Cable: Split Second #1

May 21, 2016

Deadpool and Cable's new team up looks like it will have some promise. Deadpool is done well, it feels like the right character and there are a few character that appear that we often associate with Deadpool. Cable's role stays minor for this issue and you'll see why if you read it. Not a bad issue considering I got it for free.

Deadpool (2015) #1

May 21, 2016

I don't find this first issue to be very coherent. It doesn't really feel like a Deadpool story. The issue is filled with a bunch of characters that are a hired by Deadpool to pretend they are Deadpool. It doesn't have any of the classic jokes that you want from a Deadpool book and it doesn't really appear to be setting up a storyline that is really that interesting.

Deadpool (2015) #2

May 21, 2016

This story just doesn't feel like Deadpool at all. He isn't really the main character in this issue because all the fake Deadpool's take up more of the story. Deadpool is almost a pure hero now too as he's a member of the Avengers and he's not all about the money like he used to be. The story is alright I'm just not convinced that its a Deadpool story.

Deadpool (2015) #3

Jun 8, 2016

Its the best issue yet but it still doesn't feel like Deadpool. Its getting the point where its frustrating. Deadpool is even beginning to notice in the comic that he has lost his edge and I can really see it too. The Mercs for Money is really a cool concept but they spend too much time on these people that I don't care about and not enough time on the titular character, Deadpool.

I didn't bother with all the bonus crap after the main issue but this is a great issue to mark Deadpool's 25th anniversary. It does everything you want a Deadpool comic to do. He simply runs around trying to settle the score with some of his gudges. It does a pretty quick job of setting up the Deadpool vs Sabretooth arc and that was a little weak but otherwise this was a very fun issue.

Deadpool (2015) #8

Sep 6, 2016

The idea of Deadpool and Sabretooth squaring off in a battle sounds fairly fun to me. This issue mostly contains Deadpool trying to find Victor Creed and Sabretooth doesn't really appear until the last few pages.

This is the first Rebirth title I've read outside of DC universe Rebirth from 2 weeks ago and I was so impressed with comic. I like the thought of Batman forming a team.

Outside of a necessary flashback that describes more motivation for both the villain and Batwoman Issue 938 is most just a few action scenes.

Detective Comics (2016) #939

Aug 25, 2016

Issue 939 covers a lot of bases. 3-4 character really get a chance to shine. The cover is a good representation of the issue as Tim Drake probably gets the most attention but there is also some great conversation between Batman and Batwoman. I thought this arc was maybe starting to run too long but it turns out its only getting better.

Sep 14, 2016

Very few times do I read a comic and want to read the whole book again immediately. This Rise of the Batmen arc has progressed so nicely to this point and this book is the true pinnacle of the arc. Tim Drake gets a lot of attention once again and the ending is tremendous and very emotional. The characters have their jaws on the floor and so will you.

Detective Comics (2016) #941

Sep 28, 2016

This issue takes a while to get going. I'd say this third issue of the Night of the Monster Men crossover is the best so far when all is said and done. There is a little too much focus on Spoiler and Orphan in the cave with all the humans but once the monsters get a bit more attention with Gotham Girl and Nightwing this book really took off. We also get learn a bit more about what these monsters can do and how defeating them is a little harder than it looks.

The Night of the Monster Men story arc was not as good as I had hoped for the first crossover of DC Rebirth. It ran a little too long and was consistently average most of the way through. The confrontation between Huge Strange and Batman was interesting but it took away from the Batman Family trying to defeat the monsters that they had spent the last 6 issues trying to take down. The story was still worth reading but its just not the climax I hoped for.

Detective Comics (2016) #943

Oct 26, 2016

This is a very good starting point for a new arc. The story really takes you pretty far without a lot of action. The fallout form Tim Drake's death is probably the strongest its been so far and there are several characters that are trying to move on without him. There are even a few moments that may provide some laughs. The Night of the Monster Men has ended and its time to get back to some classic Batman stories.

Detective Comics (2016) #944

Nov 9, 2016

Another top notch issue from James Tynion IV. The art is killer and the story is something new to Batman. These new villains have an element of mystery especially the leader. I really like this concept and I think they are going to present some new challenges for Batman and his new army.

The Victim Syndicate has a very small role in this issue but their actions have made some cracks in Batman's new team. Everyone is still feeling the grief from Tim Drakes death.

It may be a little bit wordy but this issue had a lot of character and a lot of interesting conversations among the Batman crew. Clayface and Spoiler are probably the two standouts this time and there is a flashback with Batman and Tim Drake that make this all worth while.

6.5
Flash (2011) #1

Jun 13, 2016

The Flash is one of DC best characters but the kick off to his New 52 series is not as solid as I hoped. I really didn't find the story to be that exciting. The art was just okay and the story was fine but nothing really happened that was that exciting. Even the reveal at the end was just lacking a little.

6.5
Flash (2011) #2

Jun 14, 2016

Another issue that just didn't catch me like I'd hoped. I don't really like the art. It just feels like rough sketches that are colored in to me and I'm just not catching on to this story at all.

Flash: Rebirth (2016) #1

Aug 26, 2016

One of the few titles that have tied in with DC Universe Rebirth and it does so really well. The issue introduces new readers to Barry Allen, and Wally West. There is even an appearance from Batman. This issue serves as a great kick off for what will come later.

Green Arrow (2011) #1

Jun 10, 2016

Green Arrow's first issue in the New 52 is a strong one in my opinion. It kicks off with some pretty cool action. I like the art a lot. One thing that does bring it down is the dialogue I found it to be a bit corny here and there. It may not be the most thought provoking comic in the work but its fun.

8.5
Green Arrow (2011) #2

Jun 11, 2016

Green Arrow continues to deliver the fun for me. I have read other reviews of this issue that the book is lacking subplots and hidden themes but I don't really care. You see all the conflict unfolding in the images of this comic. This is no conflict inside the mind of the Green Arrow. Its just straight forward action. I don't know what could be wrong about that.

8.0
Green Arrow (2011) #3

Jun 11, 2016

Another pretty solid book. The last twist left the Green Arrow in a pretty bad spot and left to defend himself against an onslaught of villains. The action continues to hit and I continue to remain entertained.

6.5
Green Arrow (2011) #4

Jun 14, 2016

The action is this comic is pretty solid. The art has remained consistently good but I really don't care for this Blood Rose character so far and the stakes just didn't feel that high in this issue. Just average.

6.0
Green Arrow (2011) #5

Jun 21, 2016

I continue to enjoy the art in this comic but Green Arrow hasn't been anything more than continuous showdowns between hero and villain. The action is good but its consistently bringing the same thing to the table over and over. This is really no struggle and the dialogue has all the cliched comic book quips.

5.0
Green Arrow (2011) #6

Jun 21, 2016

The art continues to be the best part about this series. The story is not that interesting, the villains are not compelling and the dialogue can be so corny and predictable. I don't think I will bother going any further with this comic.

7.0
Green Arrow (2016) #1

Oct 18, 2016

Finally catching up on this rebirth title. The book really doesn't bring anything that interesting to the table which is a little odd for a first issue. I still have a few issues that I have already purchased that I may get to eventually.

8.0
Green Arrow: Rebirth #1

Aug 17, 2016

This Rebirth issue doesn't really get caught up in introducing Green Arrow it just starts an easy to read story that can be enjoyed by anyone.

7.0
Green Lanterns #1

Jun 15, 2016

Pretty solid issue. It does take a bit of a deep dive for new readers like myself. I do enjoy the development of the new Green Lantern Duo but the villain made things a bit difficult to comprehend. Still fun and I'll probably learn as I go.

9.0
Green Lanterns #2

Jul 6, 2016

Green Lanterns #2 is so great compared to the average last issue. There is a lot of emotion there are well as a little back story for Jessica. The art is solid and it sets up what will come later very well. Another great Rebirth title.

8.5
Green Lanterns #3

Jul 20, 2016

I've enjoyed most of this arc so far. The last issue focused more on Jessica this time it is Simon. This book continues to be a solid read for new readers. I've enjoyed the humans getting infected with Rage and Simon Baz has a pretty badass moment. It is quite like Lethal Weapon last the last few issues were but still very fun.

8.0
Green Lanterns #4

Aug 3, 2016

At this point in the Green Lanterns comic Simon Baz has been a focal point of an issue and so has Jessica Cruz. This issue is more about there ability to work together as a team. Their teamwork develops a lot over the course of this issue and it will likely result in a pretty good climax which will probably bring this arc to an end in the next issue.

9.0
Green Lanterns #5

Aug 17, 2016

Green Lanterns has been one of my favorite Rebirth titles. The art remains pretty solid and the characters continue to develop. The issue ends at a very pivotal moment. The conflict is immense and the payoff is going to be so great when they finally come to terms with themselves.

8.0
Green Lanterns #6

Sep 14, 2016

I think that the Rage arc had gone on long enough. Hopefully this arc will have developed the two new Green Lanterns relationship enough that we don't have to see them fighting anymore every single issue. This book just put a smile on my face as Jessica Cruz is able to overcome a lot of the issues that she has had over this first arc.

9.0
Green Lanterns #7

Sep 21, 2016

A very well done book that finally dumps all the struggles that the two Green Lanterns have had working together. Its nice to finally see a true friendship developing between Simon and Jessica. This issue doesn't have any villains or huge conflict it is just a fun family dinner issue that provides a lot more into Simon's character.

9.0
Green Lanterns #8

Oct 5, 2016

Another really fun and solid Green Lantern story that can work for anyone. The story stays simple and stays on Earth during Halloween. Jessica and Simon are very well written and have now established themselves as Green Lanterns. This book continues to be one of the most surprising successes of DC Rebirth

10
Green Lanterns #9

Oct 19, 2016

A very good origin issue for the man who will likely become the Phantom Lantern. I always appreciate villains that you can empathize with. Frank Laminski is going to be one of those characters. He's a man who spends his whole life waiting to be chosen and now he is forced to steal. I'm really looking forward to this story.

8.5
Green Lanterns #10

Nov 3, 2016

The Phantom Ring story is continuing to evolve and I can't wait to see the two young Green Lanterns square off against this new Phantom Lantern. We get to understand a bit more about what this ring is capable of. Its also starting to cause some doubt in Jessica and Simon's mind if the Green ring is really the right ring for them.

10
Green Lanterns #11

Nov 16, 2016

Sam Humphries continues to progress this story very naturally. I love this new villain character. He been very solid so far and he appears to have the upper hand on the other two real Green Lanterns. We keep learning more about what the Phantom Ring can do and now dangerous it really is.

8.5
Green Lanterns #13

May 1, 2017

The mythology involving the Phantom Ring is once again expanded and the conflict inside the two main characters continues to keep this comic interesting for me.

8.0
Green Lanterns: Rebirth #1

Jun 10, 2016

I have been consistently satisfied with all the DC Rebirth comics that I have read so far. I'm a new reader so they serve as an awesome jumping on point for me. Green Lanterns doesn't set up the characters as well as some of the other titles. Both Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz don't get enough of a story line on their own before they get thrown together. I still feel intrigued by the pair and I'm interested to see where their team up is headed.

7.5
Hal Jordan And The Green Lantern Corps #1

Jul 28, 2016

I thought the Hal Jordan Rebith issue was similar to a lot of the earlier Rebirth titles but it doesn't slightly make up for it when the classic villain Sinestro returns for the first arc which is something that most books have not done so far. The story appears to be building up a huge conflict with the Green Lantern Corps and the Sinestro Corps. Could be fun.

7.0
Hal Jordan And The Green Lantern Corps #2

Aug 11, 2016

This may be the last issue I read from this series. I enjoy the other Green Lantern title a lot more. There just doesn't seem to be much depth to anything. The real highlight is the art. Hal Jordan specifically is really well drawn.

7.0
Hal Jordan And The Green Lantern Corps: Rebirth #1

Jul 21, 2016

I'm starting to find some similarities in some these Rebirth one shots. Hal Jordan Green Lantern is a solid book. The art is good and the story is fine but it really has the same plot of the hero struggling to find himself in a time of crisis and finally the crisis ends and he's ready to be a hero again.

7.5
Harley Quinn (2016) #1

Aug 3, 2016

Batman's on the cover but not in the book. Strike 1 Harley Quinn. This book didn't grab me like most of the other Rebirth titles have. It takes a few frames to explain her origin pretty quickly. I like the zombie villain but I'm not a huge fan of the supporting characters so far. They may grow on me.

6.0
Harley Quinn (2016) #2

Aug 17, 2016

I'm not sure if I can really handle all the rugged dialogue between the characters in this comic. I'm not sure its for me. I've not found Harley that interesting and I find her dialogue so simple that its hard to read.

7.5
International Iron Man #1

Oct 7, 2016

I really don't care for Maleev's art style in this book. It feels like they are trying to make this book like Alias. The content of the book was very interesting though. Not much action, there is very little of Tony Stark in an Iron Man suit and the majority of the content is a flashback.

9.0
International Iron Man #2

Oct 31, 2016

This comic has a good balances of the past and present day Tony Stark. I feel like there should be two different artists for this book. One for each time frame but its not a big deal. I continue to be interested in this Cassandra character and what she knows about Tony's family. Bendis gives us another really good portrayal of Tony Stark too.

8.5
Invincible #1

Sep 12, 2016

I don't find the art to be that special. It gives the book a bit of a independent feel but I do enjoy the introductions to the new characters that we will get to know better in this series. Kirkman's writing is always pretty dependable.

8.5
Invincible #2

Sep 14, 2016

The art still isn't a stand out but some back story into Mark's father and a brand new group of super friends allow this series to move along at a very quick and interesting pace.

9.0
Invincible #3

Sep 23, 2016

I'm starting to feel even more familiar with this comic. Invincible is just a fun and simple read and there are some moments in this that are pretty funny because we beginning to understand that the Grayson family are a little offbeat in what they would consider "normal"

9.0
Invincible #4

Nov 2, 2016

This Invincible comic has only gotten more enjoyable as the story goes on. It is really such a simple story that anyone can read the book and the art really suits the tone of Kirkman's writing. The villain we get introduced to in this issue has a bit of a different story to him too. There is lot of dark comedy as well.

8.0
Invincible #5

Nov 3, 2016

Issue 5 is just a fun throw away issue. I don't think it makes up an essential part of an arc. There is some humor that works and some that doesn't but most of the dialogue is fun to go through. This is a quick read that is certainly enjoyable.

8.0
Invincible #6

Nov 3, 2016

This issue still isn't quite on the level of some of the other stories but I enjoyed it. There is some good dialogue between Mark and his friend William. We get a good set up for a character that could be the first significant villain of this series and there is some more humor injected in there too.

7.5
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #1

Jun 21, 2016

Invincible Iron Man #1 is not very action packed but it does give a very good look into the mind of Tony Stark and it does serves as a great jumping on point for a new reader. The character is obviously very inspired by Robert Downey Jr's portrayal of the character in the MCU. Bendis' writing is strong and the art is solid. I'm sure the fun will come.

10
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #2

Jun 23, 2016

There is a lot of story in this book considering there is only 19 pages of content. The dialogue is great. Brian Michael Bendis really knows how to write for Iron Man. It still feels like Robert Downey Jr is playing the character in the comic book. There is a really great appearance from Victor Von Doom. He may or may not be a good guy now, who knows? There isn't exactly a lot of action in this series yet. It almost feels like a detective story. I dig it.

9.0
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #3

Sep 2, 2016

Brian Michael Bendis has showed already that he knows the character of Tony Stark as well as any writer who has ever been on his series. There are some really good scenes that involve Tony on a personal level and his professional level as Iron Man. This arc appears to be a mystery that Stark must unravel and its worked for me to this point.

8.0
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #4

Sep 19, 2016

This issue just feels like a day in the life of Tony Stark. There is some action there is some charity work and there is also an appearance from Mary Jane Watson who doesn't get as much time devoted to her as you would expect from the cover. I'm looking forward to what will happen between her and Iron Man though and the continued involvement of Doctor Doom intrigued me too.

8.0
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #5

Oct 5, 2016

This issue gets better as it goes. There are few funny moments when Doctor Strange makes a small appearance. We get to hear more elaboration about the connection between Mary Jane and Tony and the two will almost certainly be working together over the next couple issues. Their moment together at the end of the book is probably my favorite moment in a book that has 3 big interactions between big characters.

7.5
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #6

Oct 5, 2016

Rhodes is the only guy who gets any action this issue. Tony and Doctor Doom have another long chat but this one isn't as good as the one back in issue 2. There is some solid quipping here and there and the issue just ends up being solid overall. The change of artists is really obvious though and not in a good way.

9.0
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #7

Oct 6, 2016

I found this book to be a bit of a jump up from the last handful of issues from this series. Mary Jane is finally getting some attention after being teased for the last two. I really think her involvement with Tony will be interesting. She doesn't seem to take any crap off him. There is a lot of dialogue but it is very Tony Stark like. You can almost hear Robert Downey Jr. speaking as you read Tony's dialogue.

7.5
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #8

Oct 19, 2016

Bendis shows once again that he knows how to write for Tony Stark. This battle appears to be a pretty tough situation for Stark, Rhodes and Spider-Man. I'm interested to see if they are ever going to get out of it. Bendis takes a simple and youthful take on Spider-Man that is fine but doesn't exactly match up with the character right now.

6.5
Invincible Iron Man (2015) #9

Nov 10, 2016

There is just a little too much going on in this story. The introduction to Riri Williams is probably the best part of this story as there is very little Tony Stark and this doesn't really feel like it could have any impact on the upcoming Civil War II. The art really doesn't suit the issue this time around either.

9.0
Iron Fist (2017) #1

May 1, 2017

Obviously once again. I'm not a fan of these comics that are released only to capitalize on the success of the Netflix show but I must admit that this issue is good. Its very well paced to start out and it looks like this could be a solid interesting arc. Danny Rand is experiences some hardship and needs some time to find his comfort zone again.

7.5
Iron Fist (2017) #2

May 2, 2017

I thought the art got a major upgrade in this issue but the story didn't. It feels like the bulk of the issue doesn't even have Iron Fist involved. The battle at the end is pretty cool but more Danny Rand the better.

8.0
Jean Grey #1

May 5, 2017

Enjoyable start. Its a pretty easy jump on point for people who are fairly unaware of Jena Grey too. I don't know if bringing Phoenix back is a good idea for the long run though. Its already been done a lot of times. The fact that this Jean has to live with something that she really hasn't even done yet is interesting though.

10
Jeff Steinberg: Champion of Earth #1

Aug 5, 2016

What a great first issue. Jeff Steinberg: Champion of Earth gives a great introduction to our lead character while also providing a lot of humor. Comedy and Sci-Fi is always so hard to do right and this comic just aces it. Its like an alien invasion occurred in a Kevin Smith movie. The dialogue is really sharp and funny and the art really suits the tone that the concept needs. I really recommend this comic.

10
Jeff Steinberg: Champion of Earth #2

Sep 14, 2016

Another great mix of humor with a cast of great characters. Jeff Steinberg is not for everybody but I think this title might be the most perfect comic for me. Steinberg spends most of his time on Earth in this issue and it'll be interesting to see where this book will go. I have a lot of fun with it.

8.0
Jeff Steinberg: Champion of Earth #3

Oct 19, 2016

Not as funny or memorable as the first few issues but this is still a pretty fun book. I find the characters on Earth to be more interesting than in space so spending most of the story away from Earth didn't blow me away like the other issues did.

9.0
Jessica Jones #1

May 1, 2017

I am a big Alias fan but when I heard Brian Michael Bendis was returning for some more R rated Jessica Jones books I was a little skeptical. However this books takes off right where it left off. It has the same style as the old books but it is just as approachable to new readers as the original series was. The story Bendis introduces with Jessica grabs my interest and it should be able to hold it for a while.

9.0
Jessica Jones #2

May 3, 2017

Its hard to believe that Brian Michael Bendis can pick this story up years after Alias and do such a great job with Jessica Jones again. There is still a lot of mystery surrounding the characters. The last few moments of this issue are probably the only reason its not a 10.

7.5
John Wick #1

Nov 30, 2017

This feels almost like a pilot episode for a TV show in some ways. It may move a little too quickly but the art does a good job of crating a version of John Wick that definitely resembles Keanu Reeves. I hope that they slow the pace down a little bit in the coming issues. I'm not certain if I will continue with this book or not.

9.0
Journey To Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker - Allegiance #1

Oct 11, 2019

There aren't many sequel era books that are on the scale or involve as many characters as this one. It looks like its got the makings of a very good Star Wars adventure.

10
Journey To Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker - Allegiance #2

Oct 17, 2019

The plot continues to thicken and this comic is very well anchored in its timeline. It looks like it will actually have some hints towards The Rise of Skywalker when it hits theaters. Its starting to look like essential reading.

9.0
Journey To Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker - Allegiance #3

Oct 23, 2019

Cool battle, more of an action issue. I'm curious to see how this gets resolved with just on issue to go.

8.5
Journey To Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker - Allegiance #4

Oct 31, 2019

I sort of hoped for a better lead in to the movie. It mostly worked out as I expected. Still, overall its a fun mission with character that we have rarely seen in comics so far.

8.0
Justice League (2016) #1

Aug 26, 2016

A significant improvement over the Rebirth issue. This book doesn't do much more than set up the conflict that the League will have to face but the art improves a lot as well. There isn't a lot of dialogue between League members but this story could be fun.

8.0
Justice League (2016) #2

Sep 13, 2016

This isn't a huge dramatic story from the way this arc has progressed so far and there isn't a lot of insight into each character in the Justice League although Batman gets a bit more depth this time around. I just find this book to be enjoyable. I'm not really sure why. It may get a little more solid as it goes. The ending just did enough to hook me again.

7.0
Justice League (2016) #3

Sep 19, 2016

There is still nothing really amazing about this book but I find myself really enjoying it. There are some parts of this book that I find kind of dumb but I'm able to look past it and enjoy it. The moments with Lois and Superman are great. There isn't a whole lot of development or anything. Superman going into the core of the Earth is a little silly. The villains are silly. I still like it.

7.0
Justice League (2016) #4

Sep 20, 2016

I still enjoy the art. The story still remains fairly unremarkable but entertaining. There is still a huge lack of depth. Including Batman defending a Superman that he doesn't even trust. It assumes rapport between the two. We still hardly know anything. Hopefully the 5th issue will be the end of this story and they can move on with something better.

5.0
Justice League (2016) #5

Sep 21, 2016

I was having some fun with this arc because I felt like there were going to be at least a few questions answered by the end of everything. This issue is pretty much a series of scene cutting back and forth from character to character. There is still no depth. The art remains solid but this story ends with so many questions still on the table.

8.0
Justice League (2016) #6

Oct 5, 2016

This is definitely a step up from the last few issues of the last arc. Things aren't quite as vague. I do really like the date between Barry Allen and Jessica Cruz. I probably wouldn't enjoy it as much as I would if I didn't read Green Lanterns. Only a few people in the Justice League get any amount of attention in this issue. The ending is shocking and a little out of the blue.

6.5
Justice League (2016) #7

Oct 19, 2016

I was pretty engaged in the first issue of State of Fear. Now this story returns to a concept that seems way too similar to the first arc and that got old quick. I still like most of the Jessica Cruz moments but there is just too much stuff going on that just goes over everyone's heads. I don't really find the fight between Batman and Superman very satisfying either.

7.0
Justice League (2016) #8

Nov 2, 2016

I don't know why that Bryan Hitch insists on having faceless villains fight the Justice League time and time again. This issue is still fairly enjoyable but I would like to see a true physical presence. The lead up to the next issue is certainly interesting but this book just feels too much like the other stuff that Hitch has done already. There's still a lot of potential. The book certainly isn't bad.

7.5
Justice League (2016) #9

Nov 16, 2016

We may finally have a real villain in this story although it is only teased. The conflict between the Justice League is more than enough to make this book entertaining with. The Batman detective elements are a little quick though.

5.0
Justice League: Rebirth #1

Aug 26, 2016

Not a great book. I really think the art doesn't look like much more than rough sketches with color and the story implies a lot of stuff without really explaining anything. The moments with Lois and Clarke are the best part of this book but there really isn't a whole lot to enjoy with this Justice League Rebirth title.

10
Kill Or Be Killed #1

Sep 6, 2016

Ed Brubaker is one of the best comic book writers in the world. So when he comes up with a new idea for an Image comic I'm immediately interested. Kill or be Killed is a very well written book that gives us a lot of information into the new main character Dylan. This comic has a lot of content but the book just flies by because Brubaker's writing style just grabs right on to you. It gives you a look into the origin of this new character while also giving us a look into his current life. This book looks like its going to be violent fun. I can't wait for issue 2 so I can learn more.

9.0
Kill Or Be Killed #2

Sep 7, 2016

Not as good as the outstanding number 1 issue but Ed Brubaker continues to stand out in this new title. This issue focuses more on the first life that Dylan took. The book provides some important backstory into Dylan's younger life including information about his dad and an old friend. This book seems to be taking its sweet time getting to present day but it seems to be working very well to this point.

9.0
Kill Or Be Killed #3

Oct 13, 2016

This issue seems to move a little slower than the last two but its still very strongly written and there is so much content to digest and it still works very well. I am completely invested in the two main characters and I think I'm involved in this series for the long haul.

10
Kill Or Be Killed #4

Aug 24, 2017

I'm really digging this comic. I'm so impressed by it. I'm completely on board with the characters and a feel for the main character who still struggles with his new duty.

8.5
Locke & Key #1

Nov 27, 2017

A cool introduction issue. It took me a little while to catch on but I really enjoy the art and the story appears to be off to a good start although there is still a lot of questions to be answered.

9.0
Locke & Key #2

Dec 1, 2017

Joe Hill's writing is great and this whole story really works in the comic format. I'm starting to get completely on board with the story and characters. This could be one of my new favorite things. I can't wait to get deeper.

9.0
Locke & Key #3

Mar 6, 2018

An issue that adds a lot of great character depth to characters that I already feel quite close to. Joe Hill's writing is a real treat.

9.0
Locke & Key #4

Mar 6, 2018

This issue gives a perspective that I wasn't expecting to get much less this early in the series. It makes a bit of an effort to make the villain somewhat sympathetic. There is still some work to be done, but I'm in.

8.5
Moon Knight (2016) #1

Ms. Marvel (2014) #1

May 16, 2016

Ms Marvel #1 appears to be an origin story. It seems almost like an attempt at a female Spider-Man with the main character being a young girl in high school. I like that they are trying to appeal to Muslims with this character but it is just a bit too teenager oriented for the first issue. The origin of Ms Marvel was a little weird too but I'm interested enough in seeing where they take it.

9.0
Ms. Marvel (2014) #2

May 16, 2016

Ms Marvel #2 starts off by giving a better explanation of what happened to Kamala in the first issue and it begins to show her struggling with her powers. There are still plenty of mysteries that need to be answered but I'm fully engaged in Ms Marvel's story and I'm interested to see what else she can find out about her new powers.

Ms. Marvel (2014) #3

May 16, 2016

Ms Marvel continues to stay in interesting territory. I really am beginning to love the character already. I am looking forward to the time where she really masters her powers though. I thought that this comic was going to be a comic for girls but it turned out to be a comic for anyone.

Another pretty solid effort for Ms Marvel. I like that they have continued to keep this comic in one city and the story has been on a relatively small scale to start out. It's been consistently great so far.

7.5
Ms. Marvel (2014) #6

May 16, 2016

Wolverine appears in this issue of Ms Marvel but he can't redeem it from being one of the weaker issues so far. This issue offers the best look at the villain (Thomas Edison)so far but its not quite as engaging as the past issues. The artist was switched up as well and its pretty noticeable.

9.0
Ms. Marvel (2014) #7

May 16, 2016

The story continues between Wolverine and Ms Marvel and their relationship develops a lot more in this issue. There is some pretty good chemistry between the two. Wolverine serves as a mentor to the young hero. This story is pretty action packed and one of the stronger issues so far.

#7 is another solid issue of Ms Marvel. Kamala teams up for Lockjaw for the first time and it looks like he may remain her sidekick for the time being. It pushes the story along fairly well but it is not quite as interesting as some other issues.

It is a real treat to see Kamala grow along with her powers in each issue of Ms Marvel. She becomes more and more noble as it continues and becomes a more classic hero with each issue. The is more attention given to the villain this time around with a little more information given about his plan. I feel like Ms Marvel is getting into full flight.

Issues 9 appears to be the finale of this arc and it was pretty solid again. Ms Marvel asserts herself once again as a great role model and the story wraps up quite happily. I really recommend this whole arc to both boys and girls. Its kind of like a modern Spider-Man

This appears to be a one issue story involving an appearance from Loki. It has a Valentines Day theme and it was enjoyable enough but I can't see it becoming a important part of the story within the next issue. It's a fun read for a Loki fan and there is a solid fight scene.

Ms. Marvel (2014) #13

May 17, 2016

Issue 13 is a start of a new arc and the artists have been swapped up once again which was a goo thing in my opinion. It is revealed that Kamala was not the only person effected by the mist and she also develops what will probably be a future love interest as well as a new villain.

Ms Mervel's new love interest gets a bit more development in issue 14. There is not a lot of action but it does offer a little more insight into her new crush. It ends on a pretty good cliffhanger which may result in a new villain getting revealed in the next issue.

In this new series Ms. Marvel is now an Avenger but the story picks up almost where the last stories left off. I was really excited to see that G. Willow Wilson returned as the writer as she did every issue of the Marvel NOW series. There is some more teenager drama that works very much like the original Spider-Man comics did. I love the art and I'm starting to think that Ms Marvel is becoming my favorite hero. Wilson seems to be able to write her so easily.

Ms Marvel continues on its hot streak with G Willow Wilson writing another interesting issue. I feel like this new series has a bit more mature themes so far with all the characters we love from the old series. The new villain is revealed in this issue and its a somewhat familiar one. There are a few really awesome reveals. Its just a consistently great book.

Sep 13, 2016

The whole clone story has been done for a lot of other characters but this is Ms. Marvel it seems like everything she does gets done with a little more fun. All the drama going on in Kamala's family brings up the drama until the big reveal in the last frame which will likely cause some explaining after the arc has ended.

Ms. Marvel (2015) #6

Nov 2, 2016

We don't get to see the big battle between Ms. Marvel and a giant version of herself but she learns a pretty valuable lesson in the process. Iron Man and Captain Marvel both appear and there is some hints towards a conflict that will come in Civil War II. This gives you the fun that you expect from Ms. Marvel.

New Superman #1

Jul 20, 2016

A true origin issue the New Superman is intended to be a superhero for the Chinese markets but I think it will be a fun universal series for every one. This new character definitely has a few flaws but we know why he has them. The new setting will prove to be interesting as long as they don't copy the American Superman too much.

8.5
New Superman #2

Aug 10, 2016

I was a little hesitant to start this issue knowing that it was going to be containing the Chinese Justice League which has the same 3 main members as the American Justice League has. The New Super-Man character is still unique though and he still shows a little bit of heart here and there that makes you like him and he continues to develop. Even though I didn't like the idea of the Chinese Justice League they did craft a solid story around them.

8.0
New Superman #3

Sep 19, 2016

Just adds more depth to characters that are still in very early stages of development. I like that they have introduced characters that may become the classic villains of the Justice League of China and there are some fairly funny moments thrown in there too.

Nightwing issue 4 gives us a lot more depth into some characters. Especially Raptor who has really impressed me up to this point. Appearances from Batman and Damien Wayne also impress. The ending is very interesting and it shows that Raptor will likely be here to stay for at least another arc.

The next step of the Night of the Monster Men arc. Nightwing does get a few moments to shine but it is really a group effort in this book. Nightwing gets a chance to do some batman level detective work and we get to see the scariest monster yet. This crossover still has some room to improve but I'm happy so far. The art could be better.

Nightwing (2016) #6

Oct 5, 2016

Its probably just slightly better than the other Monster Men issue that came out this week. Nightwing does get the chance to step out front which Batman didn't get to do with his story this week. We get some big reveals and the story heads towards the finale that comes next week in Detective comics. The art is probably the best art of this crossover.

Nightwing's relocation to Bludhaven gets off to a great start. It seemed like a natural place for the character to go after his meeting with Superman in the last issue and they do a pretty good job of establishing the place as completely different from Gotham City. It appears like its got its own set of secrets that Nightwing will hopefully explore.

Nightwing: Rebirth #1

Jul 14, 2016

Nightwing Rebirth is a nice look into the life of Dick Grayson who now returns to moniker of Nightwing.

Power Man and Iron Fist (2016) #3

Oct 24, 2016

This isn't really an action packed issue. Its Luke Cage and Danny Rand doing some detective work about the necklace that they stole.

Punisher (2016) #1

May 14, 2016

This is the first Punisher comic that I've ever read and I think this is pretty solid intro to the character that I know from Daredevil Season 2. He doesn't have a huge presence in this first issue but I like the art and I think its going to serve as a good set up for what is coming next.

7.0
Punisher (2016) #2

Jul 20, 2016

I consider the art to be the best part about this book. This issue does give a little more information about the villains and the drug that the Punisher is trying to get off the streets. It seems more like the villains are the main characters and The Punisher only exists to ruin their plan. The cliffhanger was a solid one and I look forward to the next issue just to see how The Punisher reacts.

6.5
Punisher (2016) #3

Red Hood and the Outlaws (2016) #1

Aug 11, 2016

The Red Hood Rebirth Issue really surprised me when it first came out but then it really got my hopes up for the start of the series and this first issue lives up to the hype as well. Scott Lobdell continues to make Jason Todd a very interesting and compelling character and Black Mask is introduced in this issue and he appears to be a very intriguing character as well. The cover is a little misleading but I'm very interested in reading on.

I like the back and forth between Red Hood and Artemis. They appear to be making a pretty entertaining duo. There wasn't a whole lot more information on the Black Mask but I remain pretty engaged with this story that continues to really work for the people who don't know anything about Jason Todd.

Red Hood and the Outlaws: Rebirth #1

Jul 27, 2016

An excellent book for new readers. This Rebirth title give us almost all the information that we need to know about Jason Todd's past. His early life, his relationship with Batman, his death by the hands of the Joker and his return as the Red Hood. Batman appears and he and Jason share some great scenes together as Todd reminisces and begins an all new adventure which has a lot of potential.

Rick and Morty (2015) #1

Sep 2, 2016

The art is really well done and the characters and the environments look the exact same that they do on the show. I don't think this comic is as good as the show but its enough to keep me interested because I really like these characters. I'd rather them save the really good stories for the episodes. These comics are just side stories that keep me occupied between episodes.

Rick and Morty (2015) #2

Sep 3, 2016

I was really shocked to see that these comics were going to form an arc. This comic is slightly better than the last one as the dialogue is a little more reminiscent of the Adult Swim show. This arc doesn't appear to be moving very quickly either. I expected every story to be a separate adventure. The maze was a really cool idea.

Rick and Morty (2015) #3

Rick and Morty: Lil' Poopy Superstar #1

Sep 23, 2016

The art is fairly similar to the cartoon but the characters are a little misshapen, I thought that Rick was actually Tiny Rick in this issue. Mr Poopybutthole was a character that I wanted to see come back on the show because he was so funny for one episode. The dialogue is slightly awkward but its is fun to see a little spin off story that involves two secondary characters from the show rather than giving Rick and Morty all the attention.

Oct 5, 2016

Good book that gets readers up to date with Silk's backstory if you didn't follow Spider-Verse or the events that led up to it. It also establishes what Cindy Moon wants to do with her life now that she has been freed. Spider-Man appears and their chemistry is solid once again. The villain isn't really memorable but for this issue it didn't really matter.

9.0
Silk #2

Oct 6, 2016

Robbie Thompson continues to do a great job with Silk. He's just as good as creator Dan Slott was in the Amazing Spider-Man series. This issue is mostly just some more information on Cindy trying to get familiar with a world that has moved on without her in the past 10 years. I like the story of her trying to find her parents and hopefully it will all work out for her in the end as she is a very love able character.

9.0
Silk #3

Oct 8, 2016

This book remains very simple and fun. Silk's story is very reminiscent of Spider-Man's but its still just different enough to be fresh. Squaring off against an established villain is awesome and we do get to see a little more light coming to Cindy's past.

Silk #4

Oct 17, 2016

Cindy is really continuing to establish herself as a cute but troubled character. The appearance of the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man elevates this book and I hope to see more development into the relationship between Silk and Johnny Storm. Dates in comics always seem to work for me.

Silk #5

Oct 20, 2016

Its nice to have Stacey Lee back as artist. I really enjoy the way she draws this book. Jonah gives Cindy a little help with finding her parents. I always like to see him show a little heart every once in a while. The conflict with Black Cat is alright but the team up with Spider-Man is fairly entertaining.

8.5
Silk #6

Oct 24, 2016

The reveal at the end of the last issue hardly gets explained any better but this is still a pretty good issue involving another fight between Silk and Black Cat which will hopefully end with the last issue of this series. Spider-Man appears again as well.

Silk #7

I'm really glad to see Miles Morales in 616 and this book is another really easy book to approach for anyone who wants to read comics. Brian Michael Bendis is one of Marvel's best writers on a consistent basis. Peter Parker's Spider-Man appears in this issue so its easy to understand that there are two Spider-Men now and the story is just all around fun with the Avengers involved and solid dialogue.

Oct 4, 2016

There is no Spider-Man in costume at all but this issue just works. Throwing Ms Marvel in there is a reall treat because she and Miles are about the same age and Bendis writes her very well. The appearance of Miles' crazy grandmother really takes me back to my young days. It even shows some character from Miles' dad which doesn't always come from characters like him. It didn't need all the punching and kicking it was so well written.

Spider-Man / Deadpool #1

Spider-Man / Deadpool #2

Aug 11, 2016

Issue 2 remains good but it just doesn't quite get to the level that you want from a Spider-Man/Deapool crossover.

Spider-Man / Deadpool #3

Sep 15, 2016

This series remains good but there its still disappointing because it should be great.

Spider-Man / Deadpool #4

Oct 27, 2016

This is the best issue of this series too date. The idea of Deadpool and Spider-Man just hanging out really works and it winds up being quite humorous and fun with Thor getting in on the action as well. Things get serious in the last few frames though and it leave me hanging for the next issue.

Spidey (2015) #1

Jun 8, 2016

Spidey serves as a bit of a throwback to the young days of Peter Parker when he was still in school and trying to battle teenage life while also being Spider-Man. The first few pages take a minute to get you up to date with the characters origins (which everyone now knows). The art looks kind of like a cartoon but it also suits the subject matter fairly well. Most of the classic Spider-Man characters are involved. There's an appearance from a classic Spidey villain and its got a lot of great quips from Spider-Man that make it fun. Its not exactly that original but its fun and a cool story to read if you are unfamiliar with the character.

Spidey (2015) #2

Spidey remains to be a fun issue for the fans of the classic Spider-Man character. You really don't have to worry about continuity. Everyone knows the character and he's very well done. Its just like reading a modern version of the character Stan Lee created. Sandman appears and he's a little one dimensional but it works for what this book is.

The quality takes a bit of a dive in Issue number 3 of Spidey. I've enjoyed this book to this point but this really doesn't seem to bring anything very new. The issue is pretty much a self contained story that will work for any reader but its just so quick and forgettable. I like the art but the dialogue is really flat and its just the same old Spider-Man story and the villain is really not that interesting this time.

Doctor Doom isn't quite as cool in his square off against Spider-Man for reasons I won't spoil. Really the best part of this book is a moment that Spider-Man has with a young kid. I think I would rather these books take a arc formula rather than a "one and done" thing like Stan Lee used to do.

Chewbacca really stands out as a bad ass in this issue and the ending is killer concluding on a classic one liner.

An excellent finale to a great arc. The Han Solo wife story was a little drug out but everything is finally resolved with that story and the characters all team up for a really cool showdown. Seeing Han, Leia and Chewie all wielding lightsabres is awesome. Plus, the art is killer.

A very exceptional Obi-Wan story. He's always been my favorite Jedi and this issue gives us a little more information about what Obi Wan was doing while he was in exile and it also explains why Owen Lars and Kenobi had some issues in A New Hope. The art is great, Obi Wan looks like a mix of Ewan McGregor and Alec Guinness.

This is a bit of a step down after Jason Aaron had a run of amazing issues but its still pretty fun.

I like the dialogue and snappy quips from the unlikely group of women that are forced to be allies. I find the villain very mysterious and I wouldn't be shocked if he is revealed to be a character that we know. This arc should come to a very interesting end due to the reveal we get at the end.

Oct 13, 2016

Another great finale to a very solid Star Wars arc. The reveal of our villain actually hits pretty hard (only if you have read the earlier comics though). Luke and Han arriving in the last issue doesn't take away from the fact that this is primarily a Princess Leia story. Lets see where Jason Aaron could go from here.

The Star Wars title has continues to provide just the right amount of classic and new. This issue follows an interesting group of Stormtroopers and it is consistently interesting with a villain that will probably be one of the best in the comic so far. The reveal of Sgt. Kreel is one of the coolest we've seen.

I enjoyed the hell out of this issue. I think that the space battles have been absent from this comic for the most part. It does an excellent job of tying in to the canon with a few cool reveals for hardcore fans and its great to see Luke, Han and Leia all together for another big adventure. It'll be interesting to see where this goes.

One of the weakest issues in recent memory. The race across the Star Destroyer was really stupid if you ask me, but it was at least entertaining. The stuff between Shana and Luke is interesting enough and there are some decent moments around the ridiculous race. Seems more like connecting tissue than an issue full on content. We may get what we are looking for in the next issue.

I found the fight between Luke and Kreel to be a bit of a disappointed after they built him up so well in the first issue of this arc, but this was still a great finale to a fairly consistent arc.. The R2 story at the end of the book really isn't worth the two minutes of reading though.

Star Wars (2014) #26

Jan 11, 2017

Aaron probably could've avoided the whole intro with R2 and just jumped right into the Yoda story. I found this to be very good with several of the characters from the prequel trilogy making appearances. It just that the story remains very short. The cliffhanger appears to be teasing more Yoda after this issue though. Hopefully he doesn't have to share the spotlight this time.

Star Wars (2014) #27

The use of Yoda is very good once again. Yoda is very well drawn and resembles the character from the prequels very well. This is a book with a lot of mystery and you have to piece everything together as Yoda does. There are a few moments towards the back of the issue that has a few things that are out of character for Yoda but I still found myself really digging this issue.

This issues starts to bring Yoda back to the character we know so well from the movies. There are several really cool points hidden in this story. Yoda's willingness to learn more about the force has been a key theme to this arc so far and you continue to see that. I also really liked that the story has now been tied back to Obi Wan and the journal entry is starting to make a little more sense.

I didn't find the mountain monster to work as well as I thought it should. Yoda doesn't really have the great character moments that he had earlier on in the arc. I did really enjoy the reveal at the end. I just hope that we aren't done with Yoda yet.

This was an excellent story at the start when it focused a little more on Yoda but when Jason Aaron started to weave Luke into the story too it lost me a little bit.

The content of the issue is great. I really enjoyed it. There is some art that is pretty jarring though. It basically looks like the artist traced a screen shot the movies.

Doctor Aphra and her murder droids are the two best characters in this comic. Which is fine by me. I still find myself a little disappointed with the artwork on the faces.

I still don't like the faces of the characters in some spots but this is a good issue that shows an alternative way of looking at Luke and Leia.

This book is the Star Wars that I like to see in comic form. Its the Han Solo that we love from the original trilogy and you can tell that Jason Aaron is making some attempts to bridge the gap and develop the characters so they feel more natural when we hit Empire Strikes Back. This issue is fun and its the smuggling Han and Chewie that we haven't seen much of so far.

What a great Star Wars comic! Its got all the characters that you want to see in a comic like this.

Its going to come down to Vader and hundreds of Rebels. What could be more exciting?

Star Wars Adventures always seems to get a boost from the annual issues. If they can expand the story a bit I find I like it more. The Lando and Jaxxon adventure was very fun and then the second story was very heartfelt.

This line has made me a fan of Hondo. Very fun classic Star Wars fun.

Star Wars Adventures: Destroyer Down #1

Nov 13, 2018

The second story is pretty thin, but I'm pretty invested in the Rey story and it seems to be a bit more rooted in canon than the other stuff in the Star Wars Adventure has.

Star Wars Adventures: Destroyer Down #2

Dec 27, 2018

Entertaining enough, but not much is going on.

Star Wars Adventures: Destroyer Down #3

Feb 20, 2019

Meh, not a lot of excitement in this issue. It looks good at least. Rey had a decent moment or two.

Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle #1

Jan 7, 2020

I like the Tales From the Crypt style storytelling a lot more than the first series' method. They picked a great cryptkeeper too. I found this issue to be a bit more scary than I remember the original run being.

Star Wars Adventures: Tales From Vader's Castle #1

Oct 3, 2018

Pretty enjoyable kid friendly horror book. It was pretty much what I expected.

8.5
Star Wars Adventures: Tales From Vader's Castle #2

Oct 10, 2018

A Star Wars comic mixed with some classic Hammer Horror style? I'm completely cool with that. It was a nice touch to include Christopher Lee's Count Dooku in this story. So far this series has lived up to my excitement.

The Wicker Ewok.

7.5
Star Wars Adventures: Tales From Vader's Castle #5

Nov 2, 2018

Decent end. I was more interested in the little short stories than I was the main story that covered this series. Not a bad little ending though and Vader looked pretty cool.

7.5
Star Wars Special: C-3PO #1

Oct 17, 2016

I don't really care for the art and this story didn't really require a standalone comic but there are a few moments in this book that provide some interesting information for fans of Star Wars. C-3P0 is out in front as he should be and there are a few moments of drama that partially work. I'm glad I read this as a Star Wars fan, but its not essential.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Princess Leia #1

Apr 10, 2019

A rare comic set between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. An origin story behind Princess Leia's Boushh disguise, with a couple of other classic characters in the mix as well.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Grand Moff Tarkin #1

Apr 10, 2019

Not sure what to think about ripped Tarkin. I find him to be one of the more underrated original trilogy characters and this comic lines up well with the Tarkin book.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Special #1

Apr 20, 2019

I preferred the Yoda story of the 3. The Biggs and Porkins one was pretty fun and brightly colored, but a bit kid friendly too.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Han Solo #1

May 8, 2019

Very loyal to the Han Solo character and it covers the days after the destruction of the Death Star when Han is still insistent that he's going back to his old smuggler ways.

10
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Boba Fett #1

May 8, 2019

I really hope this is what we are in for with The Mandalorian. This comic stays true to George Lucas' original idea for Boba Fett, very similar to "man with no name" character from The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. Its got a lot of western, gunslinger vibes.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Lando Calrissian #1

May 15, 2019

Great issue that showcases some of Lando's heart. This story adds more meat to the decision he makes to betray Han Solo in favor of Cloud City, its a world that he's struggled to keep alive and he's refused to give it up. Lobot is a welcome addition to this book as well.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Jabba The Hutt #1

May 31, 2019

Nice to see some Jabba the Hutt in new canon. He seems to be mostly unexplored so far.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Luke Skywalker #1

Jun 5, 2019

Good to see some content in between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. The Emperor plants doubt in Luke's mind much like a devil would.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Rebellion: Darth Vader #1

Jul 3, 2019

Don't get too power drunk when Darth Vader is around. That's all I'll say.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Finn #1

Jul 3, 2019

Its rare that we see material set during this era, so even though this issue has pretty low stakes I enjoyed the insight into pre-Resistance Finn.

10
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Captain Phasma #1

Jul 10, 2019

Captain Phasma was massively underserved by the new trilogy, but in canon she's been developed as one of the more unlikeable, but well developed characters. This book stays loyal to the character that we know in the Phasma novel and its a great read if you'd like to know more about the character.

8.0
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Special #1

Aug 20, 2019

The stories are short, I probably liked the Maz one the best, but I was glad to get some more info on Holdo too.

10
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: General Hux #1

Aug 28, 2019

Very character rich issue with a lot of insight into a character that we really don't know that well from the movies. Finally nice to see Hux get a chance to shine in this story.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Poe Dameron #1

Aug 29, 2019

A very cool reveal at the end. The writer has a good grasp on Poe, but this story is relatively low stakes, but I enjoyed that this comic explored some territory that we hadn't really seen before. Poe before the Resistance.

10
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Supreme Leader Snoke #1

Sep 11, 2019

As much a Kylo Ren comic as it is a Snoke one, but I still really enjoyed the content offered here. It may not have the backstory on Snoke that fans crave, but its a very fulfilling read.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Rey #1

Sep 19, 2019

Interesting area for this comic to take place. I do like that it develops Rey's relationship with Leia, which was limited in the first two sequel trilogy movies.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Rose Tico #1

Sep 24, 2019

The bond between Paige and Rose is strengthened, making her loss in The Last Jedi a lot stronger. Also a pretty good moment for Leia in here too.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of Resistance: Kylo Ren #1

Sep 25, 2019

Very cool to see the comparison between Kylo Ren and Vader in this comic. I'm sure some will be disappointed with this story because it doesn't offer much of the backstory into the character that fans crave, but its a great look into Ren's obsession with Vader.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Qui-Gon Jin #1

Dec 5, 2018

This one shot is limited in the story it can tell but Qui-Gon's character remains loyal to the character we know from The Phantom Menace. A good start to a series of one shots I was highly anticipating.

10
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Darth Maul #1

Dec 12, 2018

I haven't explored a whole lot of Darth Maul material outside of the films. This issue has a nice tie in to the previous miniseries featuring Darth Maul and another great character study for the character. This series continues to be able to do a lot with limited length.

10
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Obi-Wan Kenobi #1

Jan 3, 2019

Another short, but character driven story. Its a meaty one for both Anakin and Obi-Wan. This series is quickly becoming a favorite and Jody Houser proves to know the characters.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Jango Fett #1

Jan 9, 2019

These issues continue to be capable of not just focusing on the titular character, but also a secondary character as well. Its interesting to see Jango serving as a mentor to his son since that just hasn't been something we've seen in film form.

7.5
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Special #1

Jan 30, 2019

Not as good as the standalones, which are already pretty short to begin with, but these stories are even more condensed. I'd say that the Ventress one is the best one.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Anakin Skywalker #1

Feb 6, 2019

Anakin's story is very loyal to the character. Once again there is a lot to like with these short stories.

9.0
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Count Dooku #1

Feb 19, 2019

I really hope we learn more about Dooku sometime soon. He's been very underserved in new canon thanks to a disappointing amount of media in the prequel era. Seeing him as a Jedi was cool as well. I hope we hear more about his bond with Qui Gon as well since his death probably had a big influence on his turn to the dark side.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: Padme Amidala #1

Mar 6, 2019

One of the lesser issues in this series so far, but still shows a lot of character. Padme is Leia's mother as we all know and I love when there is some connective tissue between them.

8.5
Star Wars: Age Of The Republic: General Grievous #1

Mar 14, 2019

Plenty of action, I do wish that it told us a little bit more about Grievous, but we got to see him look cool. Its a very quick read because it just doesn't seem like there is much dialogue.

8.0
Star Wars: Beckett #1

Aug 15, 2018

Gerry Duggan has a good grasp on Beckett. I would've probably enjoyed this if it was made into a full series rather than a one shot. Beckett was my favorite character from Solo and I would've liked to see more from him. I'd love to see an ongoing series.

8.0
Star Wars: Captain Phasma #1

Sep 6, 2017

I'm all for a comic that takes place during the new trilogy era and Captain Phasma appears to be leading right into The Last Jedi as it explains how she gets out of the trash compactor she is thrown into. There isn't a lot of character explanation but Phasma does show that she's not afraid to throw anyone under the bus to keep herself clean.

8.0
Star Wars: Captain Phasma #2

Sep 20, 2017

This issue continues to be interesting. I don't think it has the exploration of character that some fans have hoped but there is one pretty obviously shout out to the Phasma novel that I am currently reading. It details Phasma's drive and confidence in completing the mission that will keep her credibility alive.

8.0
Star Wars: Captain Phasma #3

Oct 6, 2017

The art continues to look really good and there is a nice little flashback for the people who are also reading the Phasma novel. It gives us another good look into how Phasma will use anybody to further herself. We do seem to get a bit away from the main story though.

8.5
Star Wars: Captain Phasma #4

Oct 30, 2017

I've finished the Phasma book in between the last two issues of this comic and I feel that it really improved my thoughts on this comic. Both compliment each other quite well and really give us an idea of exactly what Phasma is like. She's a good villain now and so worthy of hatred. I hope Rian Johnson can help improve the character in The Last Jedi.

6.5
Star Wars: Chewbacca #1

May 14, 2016

Chewbacca's first standalone comic in the new Star Wars canon bears his name but it really doesn't feel like a Chewbacca story. The supporting character really feels more like the main character and Chewie is merely helping her out. The events of this comics don't appear to have a very significant impact on the galaxy either. The story is fun enough but its not an important read so far.

7.0
Star Wars: Chewbacca #2

May 14, 2016

Its an upgrade from the last issue. Its quite a bit more action packed. It feels a bit more like the classic Chewie from the movies. Gerry Dugan added a little more information to the villain as well which was good. Its still only a small adventure but worth reading for a Star Wars fan.

6.5
Star Wars: Chewbacca #3

May 14, 2016

Chewbacca has a little too much dialogue which gets ridiculous after a while because of course no one can understand him (the reader or the characters). I wish that the villain had a little more attention because he is quite a bit more interesting than Chewbaca's young friend Zarro is.

7.0
Star Wars: Chewbacca #4

May 14, 2016

This is the most action packed issue yet, but I feel like this story could have ended here but they chose to extend it to the final issue.

7.0
Star Wars: Chewbacca #5

May 14, 2016

Chewbacca and Zarro come into the contact with the Empire in this issue. I would've liked to have seen a appearance from a familiar character but it never happened. The ending just doesn't quite have the significant ending that it could have had. The Chewie comic was fine, consistently fine.

9.0
Star Wars: Darth Maul #1

Feb 1, 2017

I am more impressed with this issue than I expected this book covers a lot of the rage inside Maul and some of the conflict that has already started to blossom between Palpatine and Maul. It turns out that he may be a more interesting character than I though.

8.5
Star Wars: Darth Maul #2

Mar 22, 2017

I really enjoy the conflict that continues to go on in Maul's mind and obviously the teaming up with the bounty hunters will add an interesting supporting cast to this comic. I enjoy reading about all his rage and his reasons for hating the Jedi. Any comic that has Palpatine in it is pretty much a winner in my books.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Maul #3

Apr 26, 2017

This issue appears to mostly just transition into a storyline that should be great. The interactions between Darth Maul and this Jedi were really interesting but I wish that they would give some depth into his complete hatred of the Jedi instead of just having him hate them because he was told to.

9.0
Star Wars: Darth Maul #4

Jul 6, 2017

Darth Maul issue 3 is a treat for Star Wars fans. A Sith and Jedi teaming up is interesting, Cad Bane has some great moments and there is a lot of conflict going on inside the characters. I hope that the rest of the series on this momentum. This next issue should be the peak.

9.0
Star Wars: Darth Maul #5

Aug 15, 2017

A great end to a comic I really enjoyed. We haven't gotten a opportunity to see a duel like this very often in the comics. This book ties in very nicely to the Phantom Menace and you see that he has become the villain we see him as in that film. A great final scene with Palpatine tops the whole thing off.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Maul: Son Of Dathomir #1

Jan 31, 2017

Nice to see a story based in the prequel era that features the Sith so heavily. The rival with Darth Maul and Count Dooku should be a very entertaining one from here on out. There is decent amount of action. There may actually be too much cool in this comic with Darth Maul and General Greivuous both featured.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #1

Jun 29, 2016

The art is what really shines in this issue but Darth Vader is portrayed much like the character we know from the films. He does not have a lot of dialogue and when he does speak you hear James Earl Jones' voice in your head. There isn't a lot of action as this is mostly a kick off and the comic mostly just shows that struggle Vader is having right now. There are a handful of familiar characters as well and that adds to the fun.

7.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #2

Jun 29, 2016

The story in this issue is fairly contained and by the end of it I felt like this issue would hardly have an effect of what was to come. It may be a little unnecessary but Vader is still very imposing despite his recent failure after the explosion of the death star.

7.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #3

Jul 3, 2016

Issue 3 feels like yet another bridge issue that uses one small premise to drag out the length of the issue. The only thing that really happens is the first appearance of Aphra and her homicidal droids. Vader's role is as a supporting character.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #4

Jul 21, 2016

I have been a bit skeptical of the Vader comic so far. There has been some good and some bad. I found that those new character kind of distracted me from Vader who should be the main character but now they are growing on me a little bit. I'm enjoying the violent droids, they are one part bad ass one part hilarious.

7.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #5

Jul 23, 2016

Darth Vader continues to press on his mission to find some of the Emperor's secrets. It is primarily an action issue with some pretty cool reveals.

8.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #6

Jul 23, 2016

An appearance from Emperor Palpatine will always elevate a comic. I always enjoy the dynamic between Vader and his master. This issue also has another small tie in to the Star Wars comic.

7.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #7

Sep 2, 2016

I find myself enjoying this series but not as much as I want to. Each issue hooks me enough to try the next one. Vader returning to Tatooine is an interesting plot point now that he has realized that the boy who destroyed the Death Star wars actually his son. Really outside of that I found this book to be just okay. The art's good.

6.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #8

Sep 6, 2016

I continue to find this series lukewarm. I feel like it could be so much better. It hasn't done much to show how menacing Vader can be like he has been in some of the Star Wars comics. I'm still not sold on Aphra either. I think she takes up too much attention.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #9

Sep 7, 2016

They give Aphra a bit of a backseat in this issue as her and Vader are no longer collaborating. I really like the addition of Vader's new right hand man as well as I find him to be a very interesting character to this point. He and Vader appear to have a mutual respect.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #10

Sep 7, 2016

I found Aphra's story to be fairly interesting in this issue as she is hoping to uncover some information about the whereabouts of Luke Skywalker. I really like the humor that Triple 0 adds to this story as well. I haven't found him to be that cool so far but he really intrigued me this time.

7.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #11

Sep 12, 2016

Interesting, still not on level I hoped this comic would be at. I'm hoping the ending to this arc will end with the intensity I want from Darth Vader at the peak of his power.

9.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #13

Sep 20, 2016

Damn good book. The best Vader issue yet. He doesn't have a big part to play but the action is just about to reach a pinnacle. Vader can handle dozens of Rebels with ease and Luke's struggle to get back into the action is great as well. There is also a very cool moment here between Han Solo and Leia that shows how deeply Han cares for Luke and that Leia sometimes gets carried away with the greater good and forget about her friends.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader #14

Sep 20, 2016

Another amazing story from the Vader Down arc. This might be the best Star Wars comic I've ever read. All Star Wars fans should be reading this book. This still has a bit of a shortage of Vader despite this being his stand alone title but a good Star Wars story is a good Star Wars story.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #15

Sep 28, 2016

Weakest issue of the crossover which also happens to be the last one. It seems like they could've used another issue to wrap this up a little nicer. I still really enjoy it. I felt like Vader's foe didn't really need to be involved in this story and Luke's capture just didn't feel necessary. Its still a very great story. I just wish it could've resolved itself on a higher note.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #16

Sep 30, 2016

A solid start to an arc that may become even more interesting. The art really stands out. There are several full page drawings that really catch your eye. An appearance from Palpatine always gets me excited and it has a direct tie in to the Vader annual which was one of my favorite moments in the series so far. I'm happy.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #17

Oct 4, 2016

This doesn't quite feel as significant as it should but this is still a really good issue. I've continued to really enjoy Triple 0 as this comic has gone on and he has made a really good addition to this story.

7.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #18

Oct 4, 2016

A little too much dialogue and not enough action. The ending is a pretty cool reveal as this arc should come to a fierce close but this issue is the calm before the storm.

7.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #19

Oct 4, 2016

This is a fairly solid finale to a fairly solid arc. The development of Trios reaches its climax and you can tell that she has tried to craft herself in Vader's image. The betrayal that comes at Vader's expense doesn't have the significance that it should have because the characters involved don't have enough development.

8.5
Star Wars: Darth Vader #20

Oct 7, 2016

One of the better issues ever produced in this series outside of the amazing Vader Down arc. Emperor Palpatine's appearance really elevates the comic as he explains some of his motivations that have remained a mystery throughout the series. Then the hunt for Doctor Aprha is back on. All that has occurred in this series is heading towards this arc. Tiple 0 and BeeTee really shine once again and even more so in the bonus issue where they star.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #21

Oct 11, 2016

I'm really impressed with how far Gillen has gone with Aphra and Triple 0. I enjoy reading these characters just about as much as any Star Wars character out there. Vader's involvement in this story is a little less than it was in the past issue but you don't really miss him.

8.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #22

Oct 24, 2016

Issue 22 is just another obstacle for Vader to overcome on his way to Cylo. Vader gets another chance to showcase his smarts and his ability. Doctor Aphra takes a bit of a back seat this time around but still a very good issue.

7.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader #23

Nov 14, 2016

I found the battle between Vader and Morit that was teased on the cover to be a bit of a disappointment, but the reveal in the final few frames is certainly interesting information. Triple 0 was even a bit of a disappointment this time around and he's been on the top of his game for al long time now.

Star Wars: Darth Vader Annual #1

Sep 29, 2016

I've been somewhat disappointed with the Darth Vader comic outside of that really great Vader Down crossover but this annual works really well as essentially a stand alone issue. You don't have to know what happened in the last 3 arcs to be able to enjoy this story. Its basically got its own beginning middle and end. Its a great book to pick up if you are looking to a small taste of this series to see if you like it. Hopefully they can keep it up though.

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #1

Jun 7, 2017

Great kick off issue with some really solid art. Charles Soule shows us some scenes that we were never able to witness in the films. I always enjoy seeing lots of Palpatine in these comics and this may be the most attention he gets. Vader's trial to truly become a Sith lord looks like it could be one of the best Star Wars comics so far.

8.0

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #3

Aug 7, 2017

The new Jedi Vader is forced to fight has reminded me a lot of Jorrus C'Boalth from the Heir to the Empire novels. That's not a bad thing at all. I would've liked to liked to see more of trial during the climb up the mountain but the information about this mysterious Jedi and Vader quest make for another good issue.

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #4

Aug 17, 2017

I don't know if any comic in the new canon has depicted Darth Vader so well. Vader is just a complete badass in this issue. You can see his heart start to turn black in this book and he is about as brutal as it gets. Great issue.

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #5

Sep 8, 2017

Great issue. Vader still feels a little bit of conflict and we are able to see how divided he is in this comic and that he may have had more options then we think when we meet him in A New Hope. This is a comic all fans should be reading.

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #6

Oct 21, 2017

I'm not a huge fan of Rebels I'm about 2 season behind right now so this issue proved to be quite informative for me. It gave me a good look into how the Inquisitors work and how Vader came to be the leader of them. Its definitely a good issue to read if you're not following Rebels.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #7

Nov 1, 2017

Charles Soule kicks off this new arc with a bang that covers both sides of the story. Vader's new enemy seems like a very interesting character but seeing the Empire in its early stages is quite a thrill as well. I hope that the rest of this arc can remain as engaging.

9.0
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #8

Nov 17, 2017

Charles Soule continues to completely ace this Vader story. Vader himself has a bit of a limited role but the characters that make up the ensemble are really fun too. This serves a bit of connecting tissue so far, but Vader will be in on the action soon.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #9

Dec 20, 2017

This is a Star Wars comic at its finest. The characters on both sides are actually really compelling. The Jedi in the story is classified as a bit of a villain. There are some great moments involving the Grand Inquisitor and obviously Vader's got his own badass moments as well. This continues to be my favorite current Star Wars series.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #10

Jan 10, 2018

Incredible issue. It honestly feels like Charles Soule is getting stronger and stronger as this comic goes. Its brings an interesting end to this story and Darth Vader continues to evolve as he grows as a Sith. I love this comic.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #11

Feb 16, 2018

Its still awesome. A great opening chapter to a new story. I had a pretty good guess of where this story was going to go and it met my expectations. Charles Soule is currently the strongest Star Wars writer and I look forward to seeing where he goes from now on.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #12

Feb 28, 2018

More awesome Vader action. Charles Soule seems to have a great grasp on who this character is. There are some pretty key moments that play out in this comic. I've you've loved it to this point like I have you'll probably continue to love it.

Man this comic keeps getting better and better. Lots of characters that we early love and most importantly RADDUS! We finally get Vader teaming up with one of his known allies and we are focusing on Mon Cala after the main Star Wars line just explored the planet as well. Plus, the book gets off to a really cool start.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #16

May 16, 2018

It starts off a bit slowly but really hits a high note with some cool reveals that are complimented even further by someone who reads the other Star Wars comics. I've come to expect nothing more than greatness from Soule and Darth Vader.

Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #17

Jun 13, 2018

Another great story. This is even brings some more unity to the whole Star Wars saga. The stakes are high and still offers some expected twists and turns. I continue to absolutely love this series.

10
Star Wars: Darth Vader (2017) #18

Jul 11, 2018

One of my favorite issues of a series that I've almost consistently loved. Tarkin and Vader sharing the spotlight for this one off story is a real treat. Its cool to see a smart man like Tarkin refer to Vader as essentially unstoppable. This could be the most badass that the character has been yet. Soule also remains very loyal to the Tarkin that has been displayed in the canon so far.

Excellent way to cap off the best Star Wars comic series in new canon. A series of visions featuring several recognizable characters. Its almost as if Vader's dark side journey ends here. This was a must read series.

Jul 18, 2018

I've become a fan of Chuck Wendig's work over the past few years and I was impressed by this larger issue. It focuses on some of the key figures in the Empire and the dog eat dog characteristics they have. Its all a quest for power and rivalry is certainly present. There is a lot of great tie in to Rogue one which is always welcome.

This is a pretty solid comic. I like that Aphra's father is now included and their are some flashbacks that add more backstory to the character. There are some pretty great character moments in here too. Triple 0 and BT-1 are still as awesome as ever.

Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #3

Jan 18, 2017

Issue number 3 builds a bit on the relationship between Aphra and her father as well as their current mission. There is a pretty lengthy action scene with Black Krrsantn that shows how much of a threat he can be when he is not mismatched. There is also a nice little Rogue One tie in for the people who have seen that film. I like the direction this is going.

Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #4

Feb 8, 2017

There is some decent action in this issue but there is a fairly limited amount of content. The book is an abnormally quick read. BT-1 and Triple 0 cover the comic relief once again and there is a fairly interesting ending but everything that brought us there was fine.

Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #8

Jul 6, 2017

The Doctor Aphra has an advantage over the Star Wars books because of the art. This brings an end to Screaming Citadel and it was fine. A solid ending. There are a few attempts at humor that really don't work though. I'm glad that both series are moving on though.

Kev Walker is welcomed back as an artist. An interesting story kicks off here. I got a bit of a refresher on the immortal Rur.

Sep 20, 2017

Vader's role in this issue is a lot smaller than the cover teases. It seems like this issue is more of a filler for the next issue just to be able to fill a trade paperback. Nothing really special goes on here but there could be some good moments in the next book.

This issue gave me the vibe that this was actually going to be the last issue of the series for a little while. It had some finality to it, but the ending assured me that Aphra is not done.

Star Wars Han Solo appears to be a great addition to the Star Wars canon.

Star Wars: Kanan #1

Jan 11, 2017

A very approachable comic book for the fans of Star Wars Rebels. This book jumps back in time to a young Kanan during the Clone Wars. The dialogue is great and the characters are interesting. Surely we will learn more about Kanan's struggle before the first episode of Rebels. His master appears to be very interesting in this issue. Hopefully it will carry on.

9.0
Star Wars: Kanan #2

Jan 12, 2017

I think this Kanan comic is going to be very unpredictable. Kanan goes through a shocking loss so early in this series and it does add a bit more interesting commentary on the Order 66 event that wiped out nearly all the Jedi. Kanan now has to do what ever he can to make it through.

9.0
Star Wars: Kanan #3

Jan 13, 2017

The content in this series has been consistently important. It adds more and more depth to the Kanan that we already know from the Rebels show. I'm no board with his character and he is continuing to transform into the character we know so well.

Star Wars: Kanan #4

Jan 17, 2017

This book covers a lot of ground as Caleb Dune continues to descend into a world of smugglers and thieves. It doesn't really focus on anything until the back half of the issue, but it is an interesting read. The clone trooper that are forced to track Caleb down after failing to kill him is an interesting move considering they used to be allies.

8.5
Star Wars: Kanan #5

Star Wars: Kanan #6

Jan 20, 2017

Its cool to see an issue take place during the same timeline as Rebels, but there really isn't a whole lot of interesting stuff here considering all the great build up they had in the first 5 issues. Kanan's inside struggle is more entertaining than his outside struggle this time around.

Star Wars: Kanan #7

Jan 26, 2017

A new arc starts off with a flashback that travels even further back in time. This explains the beginning of the relationship between Kanan and his Master.

Star Wars: Kanan #8

Jan 30, 2017

Star Wars: Lando #1

Oct 6, 2016

This was a really fun issue. Charles Soule is really a veteran when it comes to comics and rarely makes a bad one. Lando is the exact character that we want him to be. He looks like Billy Dee Williams and its really cool to get an opportunity to see what is relationship was like with Lobot. The final reveal is priceless for a book that could have a lot of humor injected in as well.

Star Wars: Lando - Double Or Nothing #1

May 30, 2018

Double or Nothing may actually tell us more about young Lando than the Solo movie did. This issue is mostly just setting up the series, while having a really good grasp on Lando. This issue gets a big thumbs up and will hopefully be a start of a great series.

Star Wars: Mace Windu #1

Aug 31, 2017

I thought this was a great issue that gives fans a great look into Mace Windu as a leader. Windu struggles with the thought of going to war even though he is going to one of the Jedi that are relied on to lead the Republic to victory. He surrounds himself with some characters that could be pretty interesting too. Not much action so far but it will come.

Star Wars: Mace Windu #4

Nov 30, 2017

The majority of this issue take place in the past. It sort of takes away from the task at hand but it did give a lot of insight into what Mace Windu was like as a young child. This isn't my favorite series out there so far, but this is an improvement.

8.0
Star Wars: Mace Windu #5

Jan 4, 2018

A solid ending to one of the more "meh" series currently running in the Star Wars comics. Mace Windu does continue to remain a fairly interesting character. More so than we were able to see in the films. I'm glad the series is over though.

8.5
Star Wars: Obi-Wan & Anakin #1

Jan 20, 2017

I wouldn't consider the present day story to be as good as the flashback but this is still a great kick off to what should be a pretty interesting series. It explains a little bit more of the limitations of the Jedi while also given a bit of insight into Anakin Skywalkers training as a young boy. There are several classic characters used. Most notably Palpatine, who will likely play a big role.

9.0
Star Wars: Obi-Wan & Anakin #2

Jan 20, 2017

Another smooth issue considering it takes place in two different time frames. The present day story is a little bit more interesting this time around and there is some foreshadowing for Anakin's turn to the dark side while there is still a lot of good in him. There is some more backstory into Anakin's relationship with Chancellor Palpatine teasing the relationship that the two will have later on down the line.

10
Star Wars: Obi-Wan & Anakin #3

Jan 26, 2017

I thought this was an awesome issue. There were many things that were explored. Obi Wan explains some of the doubt that he had while training Anakin and his misunderstanding of the Jedi Order while there are some great moments between Anakin and a young girl that they met in the earlier issues. The flashbacks with Palpatine and Anakin on Coruscant are really enjoyable too.

8.0
Star Wars: Obi-Wan & Anakin #4

Jan 31, 2017

The Anakin and Palpatine stuff is still the best part of this book by far. I wish we would get little information into Obi Wan as well considering this is a shared series. Obi Wan gets a lot of the attention this time but the story isn't as interesting as the last one outside of a great few frames with Anakin and Palpatine.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron #1

May 14, 2016

I really enjoyed the kick off of Poe Dameron's standalone comic. Charles Soule does a great job of creating a story that I believe will eventually tie in with the beginning for The Force Awakens. There are appearances from several characters that we already know and it will hopefully give us more information about some of the characters from the knew movie that didn't get quite as much attention. Poe Dameron is portrayed beautifully. It feels like Oscar Isaac is actually there acting him out and the character remains as likeable as ever. The artwork is really good too and may ever be the highlight of the whole issue.

8.0
Star Wars: Poe Dameron #2

Jul 27, 2016

Wow this issue is a complete write off considering how good the last two issues were.

The last issue of Poe Dameron was really hard to take but this story goes in a bit of a different direction with a really interesting new prison location and a few different twists and turns.

Poe takes a bit of a backseat this time around but this issue does a very good job of giving more backstory into the villain Terrex and C-3P0 continues to have a sizeable role. Its interesting to see how important C-3P0 really is to Resistance and how well respected he is by Poe and his fellow droid.

One of the better issues of this series so far. One issue is that Captain Phasma is on the cover and she doesn't appear in the comic at all but a great final battle between Poe and Terex is great while the space battle is some of the best the series has to offer. An appearance from Mister Bones was great for all the canon fans too. This is classic Star Wars here.

I hope to see more of her in this book because she's impressive.

May 17, 2017

A comic about a mission to get fuel really shouldn't be as good as this issue is. Poe Dameron shows his heroism time and time again here and there just a good dynamic with him and his crew as well. This probably isn't as high stakes as some of the other stories but its still a fun read.

Still really enjoying this story. Its gotten to the point where this feels more like a Black Squad/Resistance comic book because its focusing on so many more characters than just Poe.

A pretty tense issue that will likely lead to a pretty cool conclusion. We are really at the point where The Force Awakens is nearing and we will meet the film in the next issue. I'd expect the next book to tie in to the film directly and I can't wait.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron #25

Mar 21, 2018

It looks very possible that if the comic is going to continue after here that it will probably take place after The Last Jedi. Its a very informative issue giving us a lot more insight into Lorr San Tekka and it doesn't really interfere with the story of The Force Awakens. I would consider this comic a must read for a canon junkie.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron #26

Apr 18, 2018

Really well structured issue that is really an essential for any Star Wars reader. There is a lot of great canon filler in this issue including some great content that is featured post The Last Jedi, with Rey and Finn in tow. This arc is going to be an important one.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron #27

May 16, 2018

The tail end wasn't as impressive as the start. Still, there is probably lots of great content to come in this arc. Would've liked to have seen more of Leia. Nien Numb and Chewie being pals was a nice little treat to see.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron #28

Jun 20, 2018

This arc continues to fill in some gaps regarding the things that we didn't see in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. There is a wide assortment of characters that we love and it continues to fill up the canon beautifully.

8.5
Star Wars: Poe Dameron #29

Jul 18, 2018

This arc continues to fill in some of the holes that have been left vague since The Force Awakens. This book focuses more on the remaining members of Black Squardron who are absent during the movie. Still a pretty entertaining adventure that give more depth to the condition the galaxy is in at this time.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron #30

Aug 15, 2018

Still, a good issue, but there isn't as much Poe as I would like this time around. Especially now that the next issue will be the last. I'm very interested to see how this concludes.

8.5
Star Wars: Poe Dameron #31

Sep 26, 2018

Not on the same high level as some of the other issues in this arc, but its a solid end to a very solid comic series. It does end a bit like you may expect it to, but the last few panels give this comic the strong ending it deserves.

Star Wars: Poe Dameron Annual #1

Jun 27, 2017

I've really enjoyed this series but this annual issue is not good and not worthy of the extra money. The creative team is changed from the main series (which is common) but the book really feels it. Its full of nothing but lame and clichéd dialogue and the story is so paint by numbers. It feels like this book is meant for a kid just learning to read. Still its Star Wars.

9.0
Star Wars: Poe Dameron Annual #2

Aug 29, 2018

An entertaining issue that blows the first annual out of the water. Its a great standalone mission, with plenty of characters that we love.

Star Wars: Rogue One - Cassian & K2SO Special #1

Aug 9, 2017

This comic didn't give me some of the background information on Cassian that I was hoping to get but it did leave me wanting more. K2 has lots of great jokes and its a good introduction to their friendship. I just wish it was a bigger series.

Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation #1

Apr 5, 2017

This is a surprisingly interesting adaptation. Its miles better than the recent adaptation for The Force Awakens. Rogue One issue 1 brings a decent amount of new material that adds to the characters that we see in the film. There is a lot of stuff that appears in the film that is cut from the comic but the new information makes up for what they have cut. The art is a little disappointing though. Especially Tarkin and Krennic, who don't look anything like themselves.

8.0
Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation #2

May 3, 2017

This adaptation continues to be miles ahead of The Force Awakens' adaptation. It has a few flashback frames that give a little more character to Bodhi Rook and also to the relationship between Saw and Jyn. I hope we can get a little more story on Chirrut and Baze now that they have entered the story as well.

8.0
Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation #3

Jun 8, 2017

The Rogue One Adaptation continues to give us some little nuggets of information that we weren't fortunate enough to see in the movie. There is a scene here that definitely feels like it was cut from the movie and I'm certain that I heard some of the quotes from one of the early trailers. There are also some visions and flashbacks that give more backstory into the characters.

Star Wars: Rogue One Adaptation #4

Jul 11, 2017

The Vader scene is no where near as awesome as it was in the film but there are still some cool moments in this book. More flashbacks that give new information to the movie as well. This adaptation is still very much worth reading.

The short backstory at the start of the issue was the best thing about it. Mostly action besides.

5.5
Star Wars: The Force Awakens #1

Jul 20, 2016

The Force Awakens adaptation does exactly what the title suggests. Chuck Wendig is a writer that a lot of Star Wars canon enthusiasts dislike already because of his Aftermath novel. The dialogue is nearly copied from the movie which is what you can expect. There is no more depth to the characters and the descriptions we get on each character are laughably bad. I still enjoyed the book for what it was though. I really didn't care for the art though because most of the Star Wars comics do a great job of getting the characters to look right. None of these characters really look the people that I loved from the movie.

6.0
Star Wars: The Force Awakens #2

Aug 12, 2016

I'm still very turned off by the art as the characters still look absolutely nothing like the characters from the movie. Han Solo is probably the best drawn character and he still doesn't quite look like himself. This issue covers one of the less eventful parts of the movie but it is a fun read for a hardcore fan.

5.5
Star Wars: The Force Awakens #3

Sep 14, 2016

The art still isn't great. The dialogue is cut a lot and there is no depth to the characters. Just another mediocre adaptation. I wish that they could've done better on the drawings of characters. They still just look like rough sketches.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens #4

Nov 9, 2016

The force vision scene is really weak in this comic. It was one of the most pivotal moments in the film but its wasted in this comic. Princess Leia looks like a man in this story. I think this adaptation is only getting worse as it goes.

3.0
Star Wars: The Force Awakens #5

Nov 14, 2016

This is a painful issue. A lot of the dialogue from the movie just does not fit into a comic book format. There is no extra depth to any of the significant moments from the movie and once again the art is really weak.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens #6

Nov 14, 2016

There are still a lot of moments that are not properly executed at all. There is no tension but some of the art improves. Luke Skywalker was very well done. This issue is probably one of the more overloaded books of the whole adaptation but it is probably one of the most enjoyable. Not that its saying much. This whole series certainly isn't essential. At least watch the movie before you ever consider reading this.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi - DJ #1

Meh, the story is kind of boring and it doesn't give the insight to the character that I was hoping to get. If you're a Star Wars comic reader this is probably going to wind up lower on your list.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi - The Storms Of Crait #1

Dec 27, 2017

Star Wars: The Last Jedi Adaptation #1

May 9, 2018

I'm sure some people feel these adaptations aren't really necessary, but fortunately this issue adds a lot of fresh thoughts to the story. He get a lot more of what is going on in Luke's head and it could offer a different perspective on the film for those who didn't really like it that much. Its off a great start.

10
Star Wars: The Last Jedi Adaptation #2

May 23, 2018

"Its been an honor serving with you all" the best addition to the issue. There are so many little tidbits that Gary Whitta is able to add to this story that gives it his own little spin. Luke and Rey's similar origin, Leia's inner monologue during her near death experience. This is what an adaptation should be.

8.5
Star Wars: The Last Jedi Adaptation #3

Jun 11, 2018

Star Wars: The Last Jedi Adaptation #6

Sep 12, 2018

All it takes is a little extra Luke Skywalker content for me to enjoy this issue. I'm glad that Gary Whitta was able to stray a bit and put his own spin on this story. I thought the last hour of The Last Jedi is one of the best in the whole saga. Its pretty effective in comic form too.

10
Star Wars: The Rise of Kylo Ren #1

Dec 18, 2019

Lives up to the hype. The Rise of Kylo Ren does not hide reveals in its first issue. It starts off with a bang, but it still promising enough that you'll want to keep following closely. There's probably a great story to follow.

Star Wars: Thrawn #1

Feb 14, 2018

I haven't completed the Thrawn novel yet but this whole issue is stuff I've already read before. I'm still really glad to have this story complimented by visuals. Thrawn looks great and its nice to finally have a visual in mind when reading about Eli Vanto. Its obviously a brief summary of the book, but still a very fun one.

8.5
Star Wars: Thrawn #2

Mar 16, 2018

Now that I've finished the book I still find this comic really complimentary to this story. I would actually consider this version better than the book because the story did a little dragging in novel form. In this comic everything is summarized and most of the stories stick to the essentials.

8.5
Star Wars: Thrawn #3

Apr 12, 2018

This issue makes a shift into the origins of Governor Pryce from Rebels, it looks like it clumped most of her part of the book into one issue. I still really enjoyed it as someone who has completed the book. Its nice to have the visual side of things to compliment the key parts of the book.

Star Wars: Thrawn #4

Star Wars: Vader - Dark Visions (2019) #1

Mar 13, 2019

Very interesting kick off issue to a anthology of stories I've really been looking forward to. Darth Vader may be seen as one of the most evil characters in the history of fiction, but there are some people in the galaxy that don't see Vader that way. If you like Vader at his most badass this is a comic for you.

Apr 30, 2019

It appears that some people have found this issue to be a bit controversial, for me I thought it was a very interesting character study that is relevant in the real word. There are many people who are attracted to the most brutal and vicious people alive. I'm sure this woman who thinks she's in love with Darth Vader is not the only person in the galaxy who feels that way.

Suicide Squad (2016) #1

Aug 17, 2016

This issue is composed of 2 stories. A story about the new mission for the Suicide Squad and the second is a look into Deadshot. The first issue ends a little too quickly but its a fine set up for an arc. I really enjoyed what is a partial Deadshot origin. This book is used to attract the fans of the recent movie and I think it will do its job well.

Suicide Squad (2016) #2

Sep 19, 2016

I still think that DC are only uping the quality of the Suicide Squad comics to make more profit off the film but its working. The quest is really quite interesting and the ending has two really huge twists. The secondary story takes it down a little bit but I don't know anything about Captain Boomerang so I was semi interested.

Suicide Squad (2016) #3

Sep 28, 2016

Another issue that is mostly action oriented. This issue feels extra short compared to the last two. I was really interested by the last issue when General Zod got involved but this is just a physical confrontation there isn't much depth to anything. The Katana origin is really short too as the other two origin stories were but it does give some much needed info to a character that does not say much.

Suicide Squad (2016) #4

Oct 13, 2016

Suicide Squad is one of the underrated unsung heroes of DC Rebirth. Some issues have been better than others but the comics have been enjoyable. I still feel like the main story is too short but Zod getting involved adds some surprising humor. The back story is a Harley Quinn story that wasn't quite an origin but we get a character we know well that makes an appearance.

Suicide Squad (2016) #5

Oct 26, 2016

The origin story of the new character Hack is better than the main issue. I found the first story to be a little flat. Its kind of the lull between story arcs the ending of the main story is a little out of left field too but it was still interesting enough to bring me back for the next issue.

Suicide Squad: Rebirth #1

Aug 3, 2016

Another excellent Rebirth one-shot. Suicide Squad Rebirth is probably a bit of an effort to get people in the theater to see the film adaptation on opening weekend and it does do its job. This issue is a great introduction to Amanda Waller who appears to be a bad ass. We learn a lot about Rick Flagg as well. The actual Suicide Squad do take a bit of a backseat but it works. There is a great scene between Waller and the president to kick off the issue and the action and story are great. I recommend this issue to anyone who is interested in the new movie.

Suicide Squad: War Crimes Special #1

Sep 19, 2016

There is nothing that "special" about this issue. It really doesn't have a real significant story. Its just interesting enough to keep your attention and the dynamic with most of the characters in solid. Some of the dialogue is really dumb and can sometime make this book feel like its written for little kids. Its fun but you're not really missing anything if you skip it.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #1

Jun 22, 2016

Superior Spider-Man takes the character in a whole different direction. Otto Octavius is now inside the body of Peter Parker. The art is fine, the story was fine. The main issue I had with it is the differences in the Spider-Man character. He uses dialogue that Octavius uses and it just doesn't work for me yet. I'm sure it'll grow on me. I just miss my old Spidey.

Now that Peter Parker has turned to the Spider-Man story. Just not as Spider-Man but as a ghost I find this issue more enjoyable than number one. Otto begins to steal some aspects of Peter Parker's personal life. It is not a action packed issue but its cool to see the new developments between the new "Peter Parker" and MJ. The one downside is the art. Its fine but I'm just not loving it.

These last couple issues of Superior Spider-Man has really helped me buy into the new Spider-Man (Otto Octavius). This new twist on the character has allowed a darker more violent Spidey that managed to make an ally of J Jonah. There is a great conflict between the new Spider-Man and the Vulture which maybe doesn't end like one would think.

Dan Slott continues his well written Otto Octavius Spidey comic with a few more of the classic Spidey characters that we have yet to see. With a classic villain appearing in the final frame for the first time in the series.

Issue 5 doesn't go any further with the reveal that we see in the last addition but it is still a very cool issue. Otto Octavius proves his genius once again and his personality gives us a whole new twist on Spidey. There is an event that really blurs the line between a hero and a villain.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #6

I felt like a lot of this issue was just fairly unnecessary issue that set up a villain only to have him fall at the end without the story being furthered but I was incorrect.

This issue is a tie in to Age of Ultron. It hardly effects the regular Superior Spider-Man story. I chose to read it even though I haven't read Age of Ultron. It does have some good development from Otto Octavius/Spider-Man but its not a great issue. Its just good.

Another solid issue with a few more appearances from some of the classic characters that Spidey fans love.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #11

Jun 28, 2016

Issue number 11 is a start to a new arc of the Superior Spider-Man and it just doesn't have the depth that the other stories have had to date. It appears to be more of an action packed story. More will certainly develop in the next 2 issues but the tensions may rise later.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #12

This issue feels like more of the same since the last issue. Its mostly just action scenes without a lot of emotion behind it but it is fun.

8.5
Superior Spider-Man (2013) #13

Jun 29, 2016

The finale to the No Escape arc is the best issue of that story. The final showdown builds up the tension fairly well and Spider-Man eventually gets the jump on J Jonah Jameson. Not only does the No Escape arc wrap up but it puts us in a good spot for the next issue.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #14

Jun 29, 2016

I didn't really care for the story telling from a civilian's point of view. There wasn't really enough development to make me care about that character and they just kind of forget him at the end of the comic. Spider-Man really feels like a secondary character as Kingpin and the Hobgoblin get more attention.

7.5
Superior Spider-Man (2013) #15

Jul 5, 2016

Otto Octavius's Spider-Man seems to be taking a bit of back seat after the last few issues and the characters that are taking up all the attention are just his B-list villains. The Green Goblin has been teased and teased to death in this series so it'd be great if he finally had a confrontation with Spidey. Hobgoblin is fine but he's getting too much attention. This Hobgoblin battle is entertaining but it seems like it is just a way to pass time. There is nothing important there.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #16

Jul 7, 2016

I really didn't care for the first Run Goblin Run issue but I found this one to be near perfect. The situation is very tense, there are a few subplots that work alongside the main story. Superior Spider-Man is still the main characters but supporting characters are used heavily but effectively. The Green Goblin continues to loom over everything and it is just about time for a fight between the two.

The meeting of Superior Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099 was a bit of a let down. It basically spent the whole issue building it up. There is not a lot of action but the story did a good job setting up what will likely come with this meet of the two Spideys.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #18

Jul 12, 2016

This issue is a little confusing for people who aren't familiar with Spidey 2099. There is too much of the future Spider-Man and not enough of the Spider-Man that we know from this comic. There is some interesting stuff here but with characters from two different time frames coming into play it makes things a bit more difficult to take in.

The Darkest Hour arc is billed as the first meeting between Superior Spider-Man and the new version of Venom (Flash Thompson). I think this is intended to be a 5 issues arc so things don't quite get into full swing in this issue but Spider-Man does not seem to trust this new Venom even though he is no longer a villain.

This issue had enough going on that they easily could've made it into 2 issues. Now that the Superior Spider-Man has bonded with the Venom all the old evil of Otto Octavius is beginning to show more than ever. The cliffhanger at the end of the issue appears to be promoting a big conflict that will hopefully bring the end of the arc to a huge climax.

This was a great jumbo issue to wrap up a pretty solid story arc for the Superior Spider-Man. This story is starting to wind down. More people are beginning to notice that Spider-Man is not himself. The Avengers make a great appearance against the Superior Venom. There is more story told about this slowly developing Goblin Underground. They must be squaring off with Spidey soon. Its been a long wait so hopefully its a good payoff.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #26

Jul 22, 2016

The Superior Spider-Man is on the ropes liek never before. Another appearance from The Avengers provides some more information about Octavius' hiding in Spidey's body. Peter Parker is also back in the picture but its not real clear how he got there. This issue serves as a prelude to the Goblin storying that has been teased and teased for almost the whole series. Time to get it under way.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #27.NOW

Jul 25, 2016

The fight between the Green Goblin and the Superior Spider-Man was a long time coming. The Goblin has been hiding in the underground for almost the whole series. I was hoping that the conflict between the two would be the best books of the series. This book is just the kickoff and its solid but it just didn't quite reach my expectations. Green Goblin sees the holes in the Superior Spider-Man while Peter Parker tries once again to get a hold of his body again. Hopefully this can be the start of the best arc in this series as it will also wrap up the story.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #28

Aug 2, 2016

This arc is starting to feel worthy of the build up. The conflict has been layer on fairly well in this issue and Peter Parker's life is now beginning to crumble at the hands of the Goblin King (Norman Osborn/Green Goblin). This should be building up what should be an even better issue for number 29.

Aug 3, 2016

Finally the hammer is beginning to come down and the showdown between the Superior Spider-Man and the Green Goblin is upon us. The Superior Spider-Man continues to have many doubts in his abilities as he has finally met his match. Spider-Man 2099 also appears but thankfully he doesn't take up too much space.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #30

Aug 3, 2016

The Goblin Nation arc has been building and building almost from the start of this series. Finally we are able to see a bit of good in the Superior Spider-Man as he know realized that he has failed. He was willing to do what it took for the greater good and the ending good not be any sweeter. I can't wait to wrap up this series with what could be the best issue yet.

Superior Spider-Man (2013) #31

Aug 11, 2016

The series finale of Superior Spider-Man is simply a love letter to Peter Parker. Its just a great tribute to the character and one of his finest hours. It wasn't really until this issue that I realizes how much I missed him. This whole series has so much to wrap up on but it still takes its time and devotes enough attention to each plot point to feel like a perfect ending. The fight between the Green Goblin and Spider-Man is solid, most of the main Avengers make an appearance, Spidey 2099 appears and his dynamic with Peter Park is awesome all the conflict between Mary Jane and Peter resolves. Most of all the tension between J Jonah Jameson and Spider-Man subsides and its ready to start anew in a new Amazing Spiderman title.

Superman (2016) #1

Sep 1, 2016

The title of this issue is Son of Superman and it totally makes sense. Jon takes control of this story for the bulk of the issue. His character really reminds me of Dash from the Incredibles as he just wants to be more public with his powers. I think this is a start of a pretty cool arc. I'm regretting not starting it sooner.

10
Superman (2016) #2

Sep 2, 2016

This is an ideal Superman book. I really like the relationship Superman has with his son. I like Jon a lot as a character as well. Superman is captured so well for this issue it may be a sign that Tomasi and Gleason are making one of the most classic portrayals of the character so far. The art is really cool again as well. The conflict appears to be getting bigger for the next issue but I still really enjoyed this simple story.

Superman (2016) #3

Sep 22, 2016

This is not as good as the excellent issue number 2. The Eradicator did prove to be an interesting villain as you can understand its point of view but I'm just not sold on this yet. The art was great though.

7.5
Superman (2016) #4

Nov 3, 2016

This issue is a little unorthodox. There were a few things that weren't quite clear to me as a causal comic book fan but the heart is still there. There are a few throw away characters in there that seem fairly useless though.

9.0
Superman (2016) #5

Nov 3, 2016

This story manages to get the whole Kent family involved in a fight against the Eradicator. Its one of those stories that gets you fired up. There are just so many moments that work so well because the characters have been so well established at this point in the series.

9.0
Superman (2016) #6

Nov 4, 2016

This is another great Superman issue that continues to show that this is one of the strongest titles in DC Rebirth. Its a good finale to the arc but its what comes after the defeat of the Eradicator that I enjoyed so much. Jon Kent has become a very good character and it ends with him getting some recognition for his efforts. The art is really well done too. Superman looks as good as the character ever did.

8.0
Superman (2016) #7

Nov 8, 2016

This is an interesting comic for the Superman series. There are no high profile villain in this issue and there is a minimal amount of Superman in costumer. It is Clark Kent making an effort to try and be a normal human being from time to time and make an effort to be a cherished member of his community. This is a heart warming cute book that is easily approachable.

This issues serves mostly as a prologue as many of the Rebirth books do. Its not that easy to jump into this book without reading the new 52 title.

Tales from the Darkside #1

Nov 27, 2017

Based on Joe Hill's failed revival of the Tales from the Darkside tv show. This kicks off a collection of self contained stories in the horror genre. Its obviously heavily influenced by the horror books in years past but the comic is fun and a quick read for anyone who doesn't want to follow a full arc. I'll likely demolish the rest of this miniseries.

9.0
Teen Titans (2016) #1

Oct 26, 2016

Teen Titans #1 picks up exactly where the Rebirth one shot left off. Damien Wayne gets to be a main attention this time around after a very small appearance in the one shot. Damien Wayne is very well introduced to people who are unfamiliar with him. Its easy to tell that his version of Robin is completely different from Tim Drake's Robin.

8.5
Teen Titans: Rebirth #1

Sep 28, 2016

Each character in the Teen Titans get a few pages that introduce them to the new readers. With the exception of Damian Wayne who is mostly absent. There are some interesting moments and the ending really doesn't show us anything about what is to come. We just know that the Titans are all in the same room together.

8.5
The Fade Out #1

Oct 27, 2016

This concept has got a lot of potential. I don't think this is a perfect first issue but there is a lot to enjoy. It sets the stage pretty well with a minimal amount of characters but the atmosphere is something that isn't often covered in comics. Brubaker is of course a great writer so this could be another classic for him.

6.0
The Flintstones #1

Jul 6, 2016

I don't really care for the modern art. I think its nice but it just doesn't suit the Flintstones and it just doesn't feel like the characters I love.

8.5
The Orville #1

Jul 17, 2019

Definitely a good start to a comic, and definitely worth reading if you are a fan of the show. It captures the tone of the show quite well. The fact that it takes place after season 1 and not season 2 is a little confusing at first.

8.5
The Orville #2

Aug 21, 2019

A short but enjoyable adventure. Once again the writer does a good job of capturing the tone of the show.

The Pulse #1

Oct 11, 2016

Most of this first issue is used to explain what will be happening throughout the comic. Fans of Jessica Jones may be a little taken aback by the mainstream writing style that is a toned down version of the character from Alias but I think there is some potential here. This book provides an interesting version of J Jonah Jameison too and gives us a chance to see The Daily Bugle from the inside.

7.0
The Pulse #2

Oct 13, 2016

Not very interesting until you get to the final few pages which are very interesting. It took me a while to realize that this issue occurred before the first one and I was quite shocked by the tie in to issue 1.

8.5
The Pulse #3

Oct 21, 2016

Now that the story is established I think this series has really found its identity. This is a very simple "boots on the ground" story that looks into several characters that we know well from supporting roles in other peoples comics. Now characters like Ben Urich finally get a chance to make a name for themselves.

8.5
The Pulse #4

Oct 24, 2016

Spider-Man's appearance and a very good scene between Ben Urich and him is very good. Ben Urich explains why he figured out Spider-Man's identity as well as Daredevils and why Spider-Man has allowed the Green Goblin to live. Ben Urich is really the star of the show so far in this series. I'd like to see Jessica Jones get some more attention eventually but its nice to see him in a starring role.

8.5
The Pulse #5

Oct 24, 2016

Another great issue with a lot of the key players involved. There are some very good character moments from Jessica Jones, who shows a little motherly instinct, Luke Cage, shows his devotion to his girlfriend and child and there is even a little heart shown from J Jonah Jameson. This comic is really starting to take shape and I'm enjoying it.

7.5
The Pulse #6

Oct 25, 2016

The change of artists is a bit disappointing this time around and the story starts off an arc that is a bit confusing to start but there are still lots of great Marvel alumni making appearances to add to the mystery.

The Pulse #7

Oct 28, 2016

This isn't a bad story. I just find it to be going around in circles over and over again. The characters are in a bit of a daze after Luke Cage disappears and no one has any way of explaining his disappearance. There really isn't much advancement.

9.0
The Walking Dead #1

Jul 12, 2016

At first I was worried that there was going to be no dialogue in this comic at all. The silent lone silent character does work for the first half in order to establish the work he lives in. Rick Grimes is a well crafted character so far who will certainly make a great hero in the coming issues.

9.0
The Walking Dead #2

Jul 12, 2016

Issue 2 does more to set up the universe in The Walking Dead. Most of the guidelines that you associate with regular zombie projects apply but I've enjoyed Rick as a character to this point and I feel like I could follow him anywhere. There is a nice heartwarming reveal in the last frame and we will likely see more characters in the next issue.

9.0
The Walking Dead #3

Jul 12, 2016

The story continues to develop beautifully in The Walking Dead issue three. When the book is all black and white the story has to be really strong and it is just that. There are more characters introduced and the new way of life the characters must live is shown.

9.5
The Walking Dead #4

Jul 14, 2016

The issue is more action packed. We get to learn a little more about the characteristics of the zombies. We learn a bit more about the supporting characters as well. This issue is fun but it also has a pretty big reveal that will certainly start some problems between the partners Shane and Rick.

9.0
The Walking Dead #5

Jul 20, 2016

This issue takes some more time to establish more of the characters now that we know a bit more about Rick and his family. Once we get to know all the people at the camp the zombies strike and someone has to die.

10
The Walking Dead #6

Jul 25, 2016

The best issues to date. After shit hit the fan in the last issue there is a lot of tension between Rick and Shane and their whole relationship comes to a climax. The issue ends and I have no idea where this comic could go from here. There are a million options.

9.5
The Walking Dead #7

Jul 25, 2016

The first arc of the Walking Dead wrapped up beautifully and this new arc kicks off almost as well. The group are now trying to move on to a new camp. New and interesting characters are introduced there is great dialogue between the new character and Rick. Then there is a pretty big bomb dropped to wrap up the issue.

8.0
The Walking Dead #8

Jul 26, 2016

Issue 8 serves as more of a bridge issue that will just become connecting tissue for the whole arc. Kirkman explores the reveal from the last issue but there really isn't a lot of exciting matter going on outside of some good dialogue and some more information about the new character Tyrese.

8.5
The Walking Dead #9

Aug 2, 2016

9.0
The Walking Dead #10

Aug 27, 2016

This issue feels like it has so much content for a book that is as short as it is. I don't mean that in a bad way either. We meet a whole group of new characters. There is a lot of drama going on in Rick's family after Carl got shot but there is also a lot more moments with some of the supporting characters that don't always get that much attention. I'm glad we are finally starting to get some depth from them.

10
The Walking Dead #11

Sep 1, 2016

Phenomenal issue from start to finish. Rick gets into a moral dilemma with one of his new friends. Can you really cure these zombies or do they all need to die. The dialogue is really well done as well as the action that comes later in the issue. I understand that the next issue will resolve an arc that has gotten better as its progressed.

10
The Walking Dead #12

Sep 1, 2016

The conflict between Rick and Hershel reaches its highest point in this issue. There wasn't a lot of zombies during this arc but bringing more depth to some of the supporting characters and adding a lot more drama continue to keep this series at an excellent level. The members of the group have to start a new life once again.

9.0
The Walking Dead #13

Sep 6, 2016

It seemed to be more of an action issue through the first half as the first 15 pages contain a lot of Rick and Tyrese fighting zombies but I find their new potential home (a prison) to be really interesting and when they find what is actually inside there at the ending I'm even more interested.

9.5
The Walking Dead #14

Sep 12, 2016

Lots of great new content in this issue. The book feels like its got 50 pages with of story but the page count is actually under 25. Rick and Tyrese start out investigating some of their new home with some new characters getting a little backstory. The ending came a little out of the blue but it still really shocked me and it looks to be setting up a pretty interesting story in issue 15.

10
The Walking Dead #15

Sep 16, 2016

A book that allows several characters a chance to get out from the background. Rick story is still important and interesting but it doesn't take up the whole book like it often does. It shows a lot of people adjusting to life in their new home and one character learning to deal with the big reveal in the last issue.

9.0
The Walking Dead #16

Sep 22, 2016

This issue provides a lot of insight. There are a lot of good quotes that really hit hard in this issue. The one problem I have is that there might be a little two much going on at once and the crew are trying to deal with 2 or 3 big issues all at once. The next issue should be a good one.

10
The Walking Dead #17

Sep 23, 2016

The cover is a solid representation of what you will read in this book. There is some major drama and some hints about what may come in the story later on. The characters are beginning to become more familiar.

10
The Walking Dead #18

Sep 24, 2016

There continues to be a lot of drama going on inside this prison with plots to overthrow the authority and a whole event surrounding a man who killed two people. The Walking Dead cast of characters has never been in a worse hole than they are right now.

Oct 8, 2016

This issues adds a little more depth to one of the characters that we met in the last couple issues. Sometimes it takes a little long to establish some of the characters in this book but this one takes off almost immediately. There is also a lot more drama going on around the prison that adds to the interest.

10
The Walking Dead #22

Oct 21, 2016

There are several really great moments in this comic. I very good monologue from Axel who wonders about the condition of the zombie is what it is like to be one of them. Tyrese has a lot of conflict which seems to be the trend lately. Now Rick and he, who are very good friends are currently up in arms.

10
The Walking Dead #23

Oct 24, 2016

The drama between friends Rick and Tyrese really gets to a boiling point in this issue. The whole issue is pretty much a big fist fight between the two characters. Some of dirty laundry gets released out in the open in front of several characters that had no idea. It really is starting to show that Rick isn't as cool of a head as we thought he was.

10
The Walking Dead #24

Oct 25, 2016

Rick's dive into insanity is now in full force. I think it was time for Rick to show a little more flaws. The character he was at the start of this series is now no longer in existence. His monologue that takes almost the whole back half of the story is very cinematic and well done but Kirkman.

8.5
The Walking Dead #25

Oct 25, 2016

This is the launching point for a new arc and it seems like it is meant to be a jumping on point for new readers. It seems like Rick suddenly isn't crazy anymore after one issue and it just doesn't seem as tension packed as some of the last issues were. I still love the characters thouh and its still a very enjoyable book.

The Walking Dead #26

The Walking Dead #27

Oct 25, 2016

This issue appears to be introducing a character that may be the first true villain in this comic. I guess it depends on whether you consider Shane to be a villain or not. We get some information regarding the people who crashed the helicopter and this arc looks like it may really set sail in the coming issues.

9.5
The Walking Dead #28

Oct 26, 2016

We get to learn a bit more about this new villain the Governor. This guy is about as bad as it gets. Rick once again shows why is the leader of this crew and things may get a little disturbing in the next couple issues as its hard to know if they are going to get out alive or not.

10
The Walking Dead #29

Oct 27, 2016

The look into the personal life of the Governor was a very interesting and original take on a new villain. This guy is a completely terrible person but it is revealed that he is not always that way. This issue is one of the darkest in the series so far. I feel a little guilty for enjoying it so much.

9.0
The Walking Dead #30

Oct 27, 2016

This issue returns to life in the prison rather than continue with the story that is going on in the other community. I don't know if I really support that idea but the book still gives us a pretty interesting ride. There is a cut back to the governor for the last few frames.

10
The Walking Dead #31

Oct 28, 2016

Another excellent issue. It is finally revealed that Michonne is really a badass. Rick gets to know some of the better characters in this new community that will almost certainly come back with them when they get out. There is a lot more drama building as this issue comes to a close and I can't wait to see where the next issue takes us.

10
The Walking Dead #32

Oct 31, 2016

The action packed journey continues as the escaping prisoners try to find their way home. Michonne continues to show how bad ass she is. There is a shocking death that is really unfortunate. This story continues to be awesome but it still hasn't met its peak as the last frame teases a huge battle to come in the next issue.

This issue is mostly about the groups journey back to the prison. However the reveal at the end of the comic just blew me away. It wasn't anything I was ever expecting.

Its taken like thirty issues but Lori finally tries to clear the air about her relationship with Shane before Rick came back. Its a really interesting moment for her and Rick.

Nov 15, 2016

The cast of characters really isn't a interesting grouping. Winter Soldier makes an interesting leader but I don't really care about the other members of the group. I found the dialogue to be a little too heavy throughout the whole book. I didn't really think that tying it in so heavily to Standoff was a great idea either but Jim Zub does a decent job of getting the readers up to date with those events. I don't know how long I'll read this series but it could be worse.

Titans (2016) #1

Jul 27, 2016

The Titans Rebirth one shot was my favorite of all the one shots so I was kind of disappointment to see that this series was only coming monthly. This series is one of the few books that have a direct tie in with the Universe Rebirth issue. Wally West remains a focal point and he remains very enjoyable and we learn a bit more about why Wally disappeared in a twist ending that I can't wait to learn more about.

Wally West has been really shining in all the issues of the series so far but this issue its even more obvious.

Titans (2016) #6

May 5, 2017

This starting arc to Titans has been one of my favorite arcs in the entire Rebirth. Once again Wally West is the center of attention for what will likely be the last time. His love for his friends and his former girlfriend make him effortlessly likeable.

Titans: Rebirth #1

Jun 15, 2016

What an amazing issue! I figured that Titans was going to be one of the duds of DC Rebirth but I could not get over how amazing this issue is. It is one of the few titles that directly tie in with DC Universe Rebirth and it does such a good job that you hardly even need to read DC Universe Rebirth to know what is going on. It's got a lot of emotions from Wally West a lot like Universe rebirth did and there is just a lot of tension and struggle throughout the issue even though there is no real villain. I think this is my new favorite Rebirth issue.

Trinity (2016) #1

Sep 22, 2016

This is an interesting and different take on the 3 main DC heroes. It doesn't have a lot of drama its just a fun lighthearted moment for us to see our favorite characters in a situation that we don't always get to see them. Don't expect a lot of super powers.

Trinity (2016) #2

Oct 20, 2016

This issue goes in a bit of a different direction from the last one as Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman all wind up back in time. Superman meets his dead father for the first time in years and its a very powerful moment. The art remains very good and the story remains very interesting. I've found this series to be a surprise hit so far.

Uncanny Avengers (2015) #1

Jun 17, 2016

Uncanny Avengers feels like a hero group full of B-list heroes. It's just not on par with the main title. Its just a small stepping stone but there just isn't enough happening to keep my attention in this issue. It seems like they through Deadpool in this issue just to give it more sales. He is not the character that you want him to be in this issue. He sits back and he's not funny. It does seems like a kick off for a big plot that will be unveiled in the next issue but the first installment isn't anything to write home about.

Uncanny X-Men (2016) #1

Jul 7, 2016

The dialogue is a little corny at first but it does improve. An X-Men comic that is devoted almost entirely to villains/anti-heroes is a little different. Magneto definitely stood out among the rest. The ending was pretty cool but it just didn't quite have the substance to be great.

Vision (2015) #1

May 21, 2016

Vision is a very different story. It feels a lot like the Incredibles. Its an effort to humanize superheroes but its also humanizing robots. This is not particularly action packed but I'm sure there will be some people up in arms about the existence of a Vision family in no time.

This book has finally started to build a team with Domino joining the act. Domino is the real stand out here and I think getting her involved could be a great thing for this book. The finale does tease a unorthodox crossover that might just be crazy enough to be interesting.

Wonder Woman (2016) #1

Jun 23, 2016

I don't know Wonder Woman as much as I know some of the other DC characters. This issue kind of has two stories going on in it and Wonder Woman has two stories going on in her mind. Its hard to explain and it probably the most difficult Rebirth story to understand so far. Although I haven't read The Flash yet. The art remains really cool. Liam Sharp really knows how to draw Wonder Woman. This is a solid book but I'm hoping that I like the Wonder Woman: Year One story more when it comes out in another 3 weeks.

Wonder Woman (2016) #2

Everyone seems to love this series so far. I'm just not getting into it yet. This issue is billed as a Wonder Woman origin story but I found Steve Trevor's story more interesting.

I think I just need to realize that this book is not for me. The art is exceptional but I'm such a new Wonder Woman reader that a lot of this story is difficult to buy into. I'm not sure if I will continue to read this or not.

Wonder Woman: Rebirth #1

Jun 10, 2016

Wonder Woman Rebirth seems like a pretty good starting point for new readers. I don't really know what to think of the two opposing stories. I felt like Greg Rucka was really trying to be me over the head with this "the story is changing" stuff. The art is pretty good though and its a pretty solid start. I'm not 100% on board but I'll give this series a few more chances to hook me.

X-Men '92 (2016) #1

Sep 28, 2016

This is my first introduction to X-Men '92. I didn't watch the show and I didn't read the first volume. I still found the book to be fairly enjoyable. It has a cartoonish simplicity but the art is very well done. This Alpa Red villain has a decent introduction and feels like he could be a good threat. Who knows how they will give him depth though.

X-Men Prime #1

May 1, 2017

I did not read Inhumans Vs. X-Men so this is another reentry point for me with the X-Men and I think it works for the most part. I like the idea of Kitty Pryde getting back involved and it looks like we could be getting back to the classic X-Men that we all love. I'm looking forward to seeing what Blue and Gold bring.

X-Men: Blue (2017) #1

May 1, 2017

The young and original X-Men are back and this time Jean Grey is taking the lead. This is a fun little issue that's an easy jump on point. The bulk of the story is good enough but the final frame of the book gives us an interesting look into how this title may go from here.

X-Men: Blue (2017) #2

May 2, 2017

This comic really knows how to juggle multiple storylines. Each member of the X-Men gets a moment. Magneto and Jean's time together is probably the highlight of the whole comic. It'll be interesting to see where that relationship goes from here. This is a comic that should continue to impress X-Men followers. Nice to see that Marvel is giving them the attention they deserve again.

X-Men: Blue (2017) #3

May 17, 2017

I really didn't care for the villains motivations in this comic. The whole "the bad guys are good guys now" storyline has been recycled for multiple characters at this point. Jean Grey really stands out in this issue as she has in the earlier book. Still enjoyable but there is room for improvement.

X-Men: First Class (2006) #1

Jun 3, 2016

I know that X-Men First Class is an attempt to modernize the original stories from the 1960's for a new audience and it does a solid job of bringing back the original team. The whole issue is told from the point of view of Iceman who is the youngest of the team and adds a lot of fun as the narrator. I felt like this first issue served as too strong of a tribute to the old comics because there were a few times where the dialogue was very corny. Professor X was done fairly well though and this would serve as a good introduction to the original X-Men without going back too far. I just hope it improves a bit.

X-Men: Gold (2017) #1

May 1, 2017

I really enjoyed this return to form for the X-Men. I like Kitty Pryde as the leader and it feels like most of the characters get an opportunity to shine this time. I'm really looking forward to seeing where this goes.

X-Men: Gold (2017) #2

May 2, 2017

Another fairly fun book from this X-Men revival. Sure, the story is a bit familiar but that really doesn't bother me. Its this type of story where the X-Men really thrive and at this point I'm going to continue reading.

X-Men: Gold (2017) #3

May 4, 2017

X-Men gold delivers another pretty fun issue. Kitty Pryde continues to be the star of the show and her character remains tremendously likeable. The final scenes of this book reveal what could be a pretty interesting new conflict for the X-Men.
