Fantastic first issue. The comic alternates between sketchy, dreamy serial art and drawn-out prose that may seem meandering at first, but eventually coalesces into something poignant and powerful. Not a lot of the world is established there, but the mood is palpable, and the flawed protagonist is instantly interesting.

Continues the excellence of the first issue. The world gets fleshed out a little bit more, but it's the details in the prose sections that really hook me in, including all the stuff about thieves operating out of the dark web. Can't wait to see where this is all headed in the final issue.

I just... Ugh. I really, REALLY want to like "America," but it tries waaaaaay too hard. The story is all over the place and can't find the proper balance between lighthearted fun and emotional resonance. There's so much happening all at once yet I just can't make myself care. First of all, why is Storm there? Why is she suddenly best buddies with America? Why must America travel to the past and meet Storm in order to resolve her relationship with the girlfriend who dumped her? What was that cringefest of a subplot with Storm's safe word?! Second offender: trying so damn hard to connect America to Latino culture. We're basically told that even though she's an alien from a parallel universe, she's totes Latina, and not just, like, Puerto Rican, but all Latin countries at once, guys, and here's some name-dropping of Puerto Rican and Colombian cultural elements to make it sounds legit. So yeah. Love what they're trying to do with the character in this series, but the writing's just not up to snuff. No me gusta.

As excited as I am to return to Tom King's Batman, the time jumps were too jarring and made a pretty straightforward tale confusing. I'm also a bit annoyed that we're spending time in the future, because, as lovely as that future was in the Annual, we all know it will never survive the whims of future writers. As such, it feels like a bit of a waste of time.

If you'd told me 25 issues ago that Daredevil would end up in jail with his mask on, I would have probably rolled my eyes. Except this is really good stuff! The mask thing is a bit silly, but that's okay. This issue avoided jail clichés and instead gave us a great character turn and an exciting new direction for the issues to follow. Zdarsky remains, as always, at the top of his game.

"Wile E. Coyote hires Lobo to take out Road Runner." Sounds hilarious, right? Well, whatever story you just thought of in your head is better than this sad excuse for a comic book. The conceit by which the Looney Tunes characters are brought into the DC Universe is stupid and unnecessary, and the ensuing events are just... Meh.

So no, Lobo does NOT travel through a portal to the Looney Tunes universe and lay waste to the entire population using cartoon violence, because that would have been WAY too much fun. What a missed opportunity.

Can't believe there is still life (heh) and novelty in what is essentially an Elseworlds zombie story. John Constantine is written fantastically well here; he's not the Vertigo John Constantine, but he fits perfectly in this world of superheroes. The other characters all have great moments as well.

Love how Taylor keeps throwing complications into the DCeased universe. This was a pretty kickass read, and I'm looking forward to next month's conclusion.

It's a bit of a quiet issue considering this is the penultimate issue, but I enjoyed the presence of Lex Luthor in this one. As always, this title feels non-essential but fun, and I look forward to the wrap-up.

The whole reason I read this digital series is because of Taylor's exceptional handle on character relationships. In this regard, this issue was a fantastic ending to the series. Really enjoyed Luthor's plan coming together. This whole series was a fun read.

I'm reading this for the art, which is surprising considering this is a Hickman gig. But honestly, the tone is all over the place, and the main character has yet to show an interesting side. The motivation for the Sisterhood of Mankind makes no sense, and the main plot JUST caught up to the main storyline with two issues to go. Did I mention the art? Crazy good.

After all the buildup for the tournament, this was astonishingly lame. So it turns out all those great swords are pointless because this is just some weird tournament with made-up rules where you can score a point by marrying someone. Heh. The next contests in Wolverine aren't any better. This has severely deflated my interest in the X of Swords event.

As much as I love Morrison, I find myself being more excited for the art. Last issue was fantastic, but this one was just spectacular. I'm getting early Vertigo vibes of surreal/expressive art. Just great.

Wow, this is SO lame... And I'm saying this as a fan of Tom Taylor, including Taylor's Constantine in DCeased. His Satan is absolutely boring and lame, not to mention the fact that this stupid version of the character overlooks the spectacular Lucifer already roaming around the DC Vertigo universe. The story overall is nothing to write home about, and the whole thing feels juvenile and uninspired.

I'm really digging this series. It's such a cool what-if, but it's happening in an actual series, which means it goes much, much more in depth into the motivations and character of Doom. Not being a fan of the Fantastic Four I never gave a second thought about Doctor Doom, but man is he a cool, complex character. I love the fact he's both a Stark-level scientific genius AND nearly as powerful as Doctor Strange, and it's fascinating to watch a man who has done unforgivable things suddenly decide he's gonna be a hero. This is a really cool, unique series.

Spurrier's take on Constantine continues to be legendary. This whole issue drips with dark political relevance without feeling on the nose or preachy. The page showing John's reaction to what he finds below Parliament is absolutely beautiful, too. This run stands with ease next to Delano's old Vertigo stuff, and is, in my opinion, head and shoulders above Ennis'.

What a perfect conclusion to a near-perfect run. I keep thinking back to Constantine's earlier runs, and I'm not sure even Delano's 1988-1991 had this level of character grit and bold urban mustiness. Not only that, but the art is absolutely stunning throughout. Here's hoping the creative team will get to tackle John again in the very near future, especially given the amazing ground they've left for a follow-up.

I felt the first two issues were surprisingly slow considering their subject matter, but this final issue of the 3-issue miniseries sure didn't slow down one bit. Lots happened, probably enough to fit in 4 or 5 issues, and it was all exciting and crazy. Looking forward to "Hell & Gone"!

Aaaw, such a sweet turn of events! Talk about a positive, fun comic with a topical message. Ms. Marvel is always a great read, but the opening scene was something truly special.

Definitely a filler issue, but it was a pleasant, fast read with some interesting happenings in the distant land of Wakanda.

This storyline has been receiving a lot of praise, but I dunno. The concept was great on paper, but in the end it wasn't much more than the comic equivalent of a clip show. And although the last issue offered something fresh, it was mostly the good old trope of Logan shedding his cynicism to start believing again, only to have it pulled away from him in a cruel twist of fate.

I don't know how to feel about this series yet, but I figure this is because it's very much a single work broken into twelve issues. It's definitely a slow burn, and that's not a bad thing at all. I guess I'll just trust in King and hang around until the actual plot starts to coalesce.

As earth-shattering as the premise of this event is, there's not that much going on. All of it just feels like an alternate reality (Elseworlds?), which is not helped by talk of cosmic cubes that will invariably play a role in solving the event by hitting the big-reset button -- assuredly minus one earth-shattering thing that'll get retconned one year down the line or so when the editors can no longer milk it. What I'm trying to say is, it all sounds terribly inconsequential.

That was fine, I guess. Not much of significance gets wrapped up, but it's a nice little bit of quiet at the end of a historic run. The series has been sad and forlorn for a long time, and there's still a bit of that here, but it's a proper farewell, at least. Just wish it was more thunder and lightning than whimper.

Big meh. Sure, the previous series was a hard act to follow, but this is definitely NOT on par with Kieron Gillen's stuff. While Gillen's Darth Vader felt like the real deal, this one here just feels like a fanfic copy. What Gillen did brilliantly was constantly let us guess at Vader's mindset before defying moments of redemption by showing Vader's acceptance of his darker nature. This issue did none of that.

The worse offender was definitely the writing, which was constantly on the nose and over the top. I mean, gosh, the Emperor calls Vader his "friend" twice. But the art doesn't help: it's cartoony instead of near-realistic, which really doesn't help the comic's tone.

So a pass for me. I'll stick to Doctor Aphra for my dose of morally-ambiguous Star Wars rogues.

Yeah, this is awesome. I'm not a fan of Tynion's recent work at DC, but man is this miles ahead of his Batman run in terms of quality. The art is simply spectacular, so expressive it reminds me of Ted McKean's more experimental stuff, while the writing is crisp, moody, and minimalist. This could very well turn out to be one of my favorite ongoing series.

Holy hell, this is brilliant, potent stuff. When I read the concept for this series I thought it was cute that they would explore urban legends, but this is so... raw and contemporary. Really, really good stuff. The art is amazing, too, and a perfect complement for the writing. Perhaps Tynion's best stuff ever.

Yeah no. I'm all for biting political satire, but this issue just felt like exploitative pulp. Lots of violence I didn't care about, and a rambling style that just didn't connect. Then again, I should have known from the title and cover.

Squirrel Girl never fails to crack me up, and this issue was no exception.

The story of "Void Trip" is basically of two outlaw junkies on the run from the law, except that it's in SPAAAACE so you can enjoy some original art. Besides the gorgeous art, though, there's nothing very original or likable about this issue.
