Review: Doberman #5

Although I’ve seen a lot of harsh criticism for Doberman, I’ve continued to enjoy it for what it is. I think people who don’t enjoy it take the comic, and themselves, too seriously. This book isn’t trying to re-invent the wheel by any means but delivers on action and comedy which it sets out to do.

Review: The Dying & The Dead #1

A friend once told me that, despite what you might hear, Life is not short. It is, in fact, the longest thing you will ever experience. I always found that to be an interesting viewpoint, and, really, an optimistic one. But Life is not so individual an experience - no man being an island, and all that - and its length cannot be measured without a sense of relativity. In a lot of ways, the same could be said about reading Jonathan Hickman.

Review: Princess Ugg #7

This series has been kicking serious ass lately. I missed out on reviewing the last issue, but if I had… high marks to say the least. The thing that’s always so pleasing about Ted Naifeh’s storytelling is that he manages to hook you with a different lure each issue.

Review: Robyn Hood #6

Robyn Hood starts out way different from anything we have ever seen; Marian narrates this issue. I always said that I love this chick and wanted to see more of her story with Robyn’s. Although I did miss Robyn’s sarcastic attitude. Marian doesn’t even come close to giving us as much spice as Robyn does. But all in all, I loved the changed that Pat Shand gave us and feel like he is listening to his readers.

Review: Tomb Raider #12

'The fall of the curtain' marks the end of this current arc. Picking up from last time, Mr. Cruz has made his way to London to track down and kill Lara and Ramile. Lara meanwhile is blowing chunks from the stress of her looming performance (even the return of my favorite Jaffa Cakes don't make her feel better).

Review: Sleepy Hollow #4

In Sleepy Hollow #3, the gang got sucked into a possessed grandfather clock that trapped each person in their own hell. The cursed music kept them possessed, kept them from fighting back. Luckily we’ve got Abbie- she figured out how to get everyone out of their personal hells by targeting the music. All that’s left is Abbie’s own prison.

Review: King: The Phantom #1

In my Flash Gordon #1 review by the same publisher I mentioned the Mount Rushmore of classic pulp heroes (Flash Gordon, Phantom, Doc Savage and The Shadow, if you want to know), Dynamite did pretty well with Flash Gordon so let’s see how they do with The Phantom.

Review: King: Flash Gordon #1

Flash Gordon is an institution. One of the first pulp heroes in existence and along with The Phantom and Doc Savage they are ¾ of the Mount Rushmore of comic hero origins. The Shadow is probably the 4th member of that Mount Rushmore, in case you were curious.

Review: Danger Club #6

There is only one thing to say about the return of Danger Club… it’s one of the prettiest books on the market. It’s been a long journey for the creators to get here and frankly I’m not going to go into it with this review. To cut to the chase this book was worth the wait and if you feel differently then that’s okay, but the rest of us are going to enjoy one hell of a return.

Review: Colder – The Bad Seed #4

For a while now I’ve been behind on this series and after catching up I can only say that I regret that I ever fell behind. The first two issues were good, but they were a bit reminiscent of the first volume of the series. The third issue changed the landscape significantly and this fourth issue continued on the new and fresh course making this one of the best ongoing horror themed stories on the market.

Review: 13 Coins #4

The battle between good and evil is always more than what can be seen. The fate though hinges on one person who has the power, but has to accept who he is and his fate. Sure a pretty normal sounding story but this one has a different twist that kept me reading.

Review: Imaginary Drugs

I know I’m pretty new but I’m already going to give you a peek behind the curtain here. Usually when I consume something, be it written, video, audio or visual I usually write a review of it in my head. It’s how I’m able to recall things. I consume it, I sum up the experience so it can be categorized and put in a box and then the box can be filed away in the warehouse of my mind. Kind of an abstract description right? It’s also kind of appropriate though when you consider Imaginary Drugs. But I tell you that so that you understand where I coming from here. As I was reading this I was completely stumped as to what category this should be in and I love it for that.

Review: The Valiant #2

The Valiant issue 2 is a solid second act entry in this prestige series from everyone’s favorite underdog publishing universe. The plot moves forward, there are some solid character beats and aside from a surprise art guest (trust me, it’s awesome), the appearance of everyone’s favorite secret agent ninja: NINJAK.

Review: Vampirella #100

Vampirella may be over 45 years old from its original publication in the late 1960s, but Dynamite Entertainment has had rights since 2010 submitting many new installments along the way. Now several miniseries, one shots, and ongoing monthlies later, they have reached their 100th issue. What better way to celebrate than to unleash an anthology style tome utilizing many of the writers who have been a part of that rich and bloody heritage over the past few years since Dynamite’s run.

Review: TMNT – New Animated Adventures #19

This issue contains two stories. The first 'the flavor of fear' opens with the turtles out hunting for the krang until Mikey sees a new pizza restaurant (you know our boy Mikey wants some of that). When the rest of the turtles aren't paying attention he decides to sneak off to get some pizza. He gets caught by Raph who lets Mikey go as long as he promises to bring him back a slice (Love the brotherly love between Raph and Mikey).

Review: Drifter #3

Compared to the last issue very little actually happens in the third installment of Drifter and yet… I kind of liked it more. I mean I really liked the last issue, but there is just something about this issue that grabbed me. It could be the fact that we’re shown the day-to-day of the planet as things have settled in for our mystery man Pollux.

Review: Zombie Tramp #6

I kind of thought that the last issue was starting a new story arc and maybe it is, but this issue isn’t a continuation from the last other than the mention of the werewolf we meet back in issue #5. Instead it’s really a one-shot filler issue and nothing new happens.
