Group Review: Wytches #1

There’s no denying that Scott Snyder is a “hot” name in the world of comics, so it only makes sense that we would tackle his newest series Wytches from Image Comics. You may recall that Image was pretty pumped to have this series and it seems like a few of our writers were as well. That said each of the writers participating in the group review are going to give you their score and thoughts for the first issue.

Review: Death Vigil #4

The average comic fan is probably going to be a little frustrated with this issue, which will be their loss. While the story only inches forward slightly, there’s two pretty big reveals in the issue.

Review: Empress #1

I read The Fade Out, Brubaker's new Hollywood noir when it first hit the shelves, and wasn't in love. It was beautifully drawn and featured Brubaker's signature command as reigning King of Comic Noir, but it felt overly familiar and didn't have the same frantic sadness that Satellite Sam won me over with.

Review: Holy F*ck #1

Over the past week I have written Holy F*ck dozens of times and let me tell you… it’s really hard to write that. I’m not one to censor myself, especially with the “F” word, but you gotta respect the title.

Review: Eyesight #1-3

Eyesight is an unapologetic story told by creators that have a story in mind that they want to tell no matter what. It’s bold, it’s creepy, it’s strange as hell, but I loved every page of it. I couldn’t get enough of it and re-read it just to wrap my head around what I had read. It’s what I think of when I think of a good indie comic book.

Review: Bow-Wow’s Nightmare Neighbors

We’ve reviewed comics and books for kids on the site before so it should come as too big of a surprise that we’re back with a new title from creators Mark Newgarden and Megan Montague Cash. The Bow-Wow book series isn’t one that I’m familiar with, but after reading Nightmare Neighbors I can see why it’s popular.

Review: True Stories - Vol. 1

Sometimes when a comic publisher is on a roll they just stay there. In my early days as an Oni Press reader I remember loving everything that I picked up by the publisher. Now-a-days they’re still consistently great, but there’s stuff that I just don’t care for that they publish. There are a few companies that have taken their place and Alternative Comics is one of those publishers. I’ve yet to read something from them that I didn’t enjoy and want to comb over and that only makes me want to read more from there.

Review: Man vs Rock #2

That’s right it’s time to dive back into the world of Man vs. Rock. It took me a little longer than I would have liked to cover this second issue, but it’s worth it just so I can talk about it. I’ve had a ton of fun with this series and have to say how rare it is that an indie comic is actually funny. I’ve read some attempts in the past and… well you either have it or you don’t. Man vs. Rock has it in spades.

Review: Tabatha #1

Being a mailman means you probably run into some strange people during the course of your workday. In this story's case, sometimes strange translates into a living nightmare. I won't say much more about Tabatha in terms of plot, since the whole book from a certain point on seems like spoilers, and in yet another rare case, I actually sort of like this indie book.

Review: Fight Like A Girl #1

Fight Like A Girl has one of the best titles to hit comics in years. The awesome title is accompanied by an interesting premise that’s populated by characters that the reader will want to journey with. All of that is wrapped up in a bow of wonderful art that’s a cross between Paul Pope and Becky Cloonan in my humble opinion. If that all sounds good to you then let’s continue and figure out what this debut issue is all about.

Group Review: Death of Wolverine #3

You may be wondering why the Death of Wolverine was delayed until October, even though Marvel promoted the hell out of the event running all the way through September. Well we don’t know, if there was a guess it would probably have to do with them getting an early look at the sales numbers and realized that two more issues of Wolverine dying weren’t going to win them the month (they lost to DC), but whatever.

Review: Rogue Trooper Classics #4

I am often asked about good 2000 AD stories from the past that will help a curious consumer to get a good feel for the magazine. In the past, I would come up with various episodes that typically included Judge Dredd and Rogue Trooper, two of my favorites of all time.

Review: Vampirella #5

It’s been a fun run these last several months watching Vampirella as she takes out ultra rare vampires in a bid to strengthen her power so that she may resist the curse that has been placed upon her that will make Ms. V. the living vessel for Umbra, The Lady of Shadows who plans to enter the earth and jumpstart the Apocalypse.
