Review: Bloodshot Salvation #1
By Patrick Wolf
Some of the best stories I’ve ever read had incredibly boring intros. Examples that come to mind are Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities, Sakaki’s Scrapped Princess, and Spielberg’s Schindler’s List. While it’s too early to tell if Bloodshot Salvation belongs in the same category as these titans, one thing is clear: its first issue is definitely skimpy on the action.
Review: Harley Quinn and Batman #1
By Dustin Cabeal
Looking at that cover, I’m sure more than a few people in their 30s and early 40s were like, fuck yeah, Batman The Animated Series as a comic book, but not that shitty one they did for kids back in the 90s. That’s what my thought was, minus the shitty comic part because I actually liked them. Then I opened it and quickly realized that it was The Adventures of Batman & Robin… Not Batman The Animated Series.
Review: Elsewhere #1
By Ben Snyder
Elsewhere #1 is a fast paced streamlined entry point into a classic fish out of water tale. The clever twist in Elsewhere is that the fishes are Amelia Earhart and another surprise famed lost pilot. Elsewhere #1 is mostly solid plot and art wise, but the real shining star of this series is the character Earhart, who is equal parts moxie and human.
Review: Adventure Time x Regular Show #1
By Dustin Cabeal
It seems one crossover wasn’t enough for BOOM!/kaboom! this week and they opted for a second. The first being a Grumpy Cat/Garfield crossover (still haven’t a clue why GC gets top billing) and the second pairing up their two biggest Cartoon Network licenses in an event that I can only imagine a few fans being pleased to read. When I saw it, I couldn’t begin to understand why two shows with completely different comedic styles and tone would be crossed over and what anyone would get out of it. I still don’t know even after reading the damn issue.
Review: Ghost Station Zero
By Ben Snyder
Ghost Station Zero #1 serves as a continuation of the Codename Baboushka catalogue and a mediocre one at that. Issue #1 sets up another globe trotting quest for Baboushka as she must stop the Russian government from reclaiming their secret and shady past. While obviously mimicking classic spy stories from 007, Ghost Station Zero #1 is just not nearly as interesting.
Review: Grumpy Cat/Garfield #1
By Dustin Cabeal
How the fuck did Grumpy Cat get top billing on this book? Like, what the hell.
I have no idea who the hell this book is for. It seems to be written for children, which is just strange. Grumpy Cat, a former internet meme, gained popularity from internet users who would likely hate this book upon site. Garfield, despite the cartoon shows, Christmas special and terrible live action movies, is a comic strip that’s written for anyone and everyone. Anyone can jump on to Garfield and read it, not just children. Why then is Grumpy Cat/Garfield written for children?
Review: Marzi vol. 1 – Little Carp
By Dustin Cabeal
Reading the description for Marzi is a cheat. It tells you too much, and that spoils the journey that Marzi takes you on in this first volume. First and foremost, don’t read the description, but do read Marzi.
Review: Mighty Jack and the Goblin King
By Dustin Cabeal
Mighty Jack was one of the best graphic novels I read last year. I wasn’t surprised in the least that Ben Hatke already had a follow up to the series this year because he’s a machine and produces so many great stories and comics each year. It is impressive considering he writes and illustrates it all himself and the story and art never take a dip.
Review: Batman Beyond #10
By Ashley Gibbs
We’ve been reintroduced to Damian Wayne, Bruce’s son with Talia al Ghul. He’s taken up his grandfather’s mantle and cause, shunning his father and the opportunity to be Batman. In the previous issue, it seemed to be the fault of the suit and its AI, at least that’s what Bruce wants to believe, but in Batman Beyond #10 Damian sets the record straight that his choices were his own. This issue is mainly exposition with some flashbacks and not much action, which is a bummer but I did enjoy the father-son discussions and the look into Damian’s thought process.
Review: Batman Beyond #9
By Ashley Gibbs
When the Batman Beyond cartoon first aired in 1999 until 2001, there was no official character who was the son of Batman. The series made a point of explaining why neither Dick nor Tim had taken up the batmantle, so the role fell to Terry. However, now we have Damian Wayne, the biological son of Bruce and Talia and the next logical question would be why didn’t he become the next Batman after Bruce was too old to handle it? Batman Beyond #9 explains this for us very well as Damian explains his story to Terry as they fight throughout the issue as well as Bruce’s own memories. It’s a good issue, even if I don’t care for the explanation given.
