Review: Creature Cops #3

I didn't catch the first two issues of this book, so I had no idea what I was going to see inside. I heard the name before seeing the cover. I actually wondered if the cops in this were creatures. In case you haven't seen anything to do with this comic yet, they're not.

Review: Imperium #3

If I had to criticize Imperium, that is, ostensibly, what I do after all, it would be that there isn’t a clear line of where this story is going. The first issue sets up a Utopia, so we know where the story ends, and then flashes back to a period of unrest.

Review: The Four Points #1

The Four Points summed up in one sentence; All-female Planateers from Captain Planet, minus Heart and Captain Planet. It's fairly obvious from the cover that the women in this book control the elements, which is strange that they hide it for most of the issue. The women (or at least one of them) have other powers.

Review: Descender #2

Unlike its first issue, which was largely populated by catastrophic world-splosions and all-powerful robot gods, in Descender #2, Lemire and Nguyen take a much more intimate look at their universe-in-disarray.

Review: Masks 2 #1

Masks 2 is the follow up to the original Masks mini-series (which I didn't read). This mini-series is expected to expand the universe from the first and be a good jumping on point for new readers Masks 2 #1(which it is).

Review: The Legacy of Luther Strode #1

When I saw that The Legacy of Luther Strode released this week my first thought was, “Oh fuck yes!” Really that was my only thought. Unlike some I have been very patient in waiting for this book to debut because this is it folks, this is the last chapter in the trilogy for Luther Strode and I plan to savor every page of it.

Review: Kaijumax #1

This was not what I was expecting… I thought it was going to be slapstick comedy making fun of the Kaiju genre and we’d all have a good laugh… I should have realized that the “Max” in the title was referring to prison… this books got heavy quick.

Review: X #24

This issue picks up right where we left off as X is getting mauled by a pack of sangre fiends. Gundog (who we learned is really Lt. Setter) promises these people all the drugs they could need in exchange for X’s heart.

Review: Rai #8

And so marks the end of the second story arc of Rai. I’ve been hard on this series since the beginning, but even it’s been really good and score high marks. I worried that everything was happening a little too easily in this series, but that’s why Matt Kindt is one of the best writers in the biz… he proved me wrong.

Review: Nameless #3

The one thing that I have always loved about comic books is how an author or artist can take an idea, possibly even one that has been around for a long time, and make it effectively their own adding a new layer to a familiar story that enhances and evolves the entire medium.

Review: Lenore: Pink Bellies

There’s nothing new I can say about Lenore. It’s one of those properties that have been around so long that it’s exhausted every compliment and even every criticism. Which is strange right? I mean it’s still doing new things and yet there’s nothing new to say about it? Well let’s try shall we?

Review: Tethered

If there is one thing that we have plenty of its Zombie stories. What was once a niche genre that confused the common woman or man, has now taken over the mainstream. You can thank a dozen properties ranging from movies, comics and video games for this undying trend. So the question when a genre becomes to big is, do we really need more?

Review: Girl in Dior

Girl in Dior is a look at the life of Christian Dior. I almost hate to tell you anything about it, but I suppose the experience will be determined by your level of knowledge of Dior and the era in general. The thing is I became very attached to the main character and the way the story is told you really believe that this was a person plucked out of Dior’s life.
