Review: Wonder Woman #38

By Cat Wyatt

The latest issue of Wonder Woman started off on a different tone; it’s told from the perspective of one of the (many) people Diana has saved. Like many people who have been saved by Wonder Woman, she met her on what was one of the worst days of her life. Unlike many, she was pretty okay with things; she survived, and she got to meet her hero. What more could a girl ask for?

Review: Bonehead #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Bonehead was a surprisingly entertaining first issue. It was also confusing in that by the end of it, you’re unlikely to understand the lay of the land and the point of the story. Not that, that must be 100% established in the first issue, just that it was lacking a bit too much in Bonehead #1.

Review: Royal City #9

By Ben Snyder

As anyone who has read any of my Royal City reviews can attest, I am a huge fan of this series and Jeff Lemire’s combined writing and artwork. However, in Royal City #9 some facets are starting to become annoying. Whether it’s Lemire’s colors muddling the details in the environment or the general lack of anything interesting regarding Richie and Tara’s storyline, it seems that the weak points of this fantastic series are finally surfacing.

Review: Sword of Ages #2

By Cat Wyatt

Issue 2 of Sword of Ages continues the epic fantasy series surrounding a girl named Avalon. The more I read of this series, the more it feels like an Arthurian tale occurring on another planet. Not that I have any problem with this sort of spin, it adds some interesting elements, to be sure. It’s interesting to see a more science fiction (and gender-swapped) version of King Arthur.

Review: Batman: Creature of the Night #2

By Dustin Cabeal

I have some regret for not putting this on my best of 2017 list. It’s likely to get a spot on this year’s list because already two issues in on this series, and it’s one of the best comics I’ve ever read. The mixture of the real-world and fictional DC world is balanced brilliantly making you forget that this too is a fictional world.

Review: Harley Quinn Be Careful What You Wish For #1

By Kelly Gaines

What would the DC universe’s most chaotic anti-hero/ anti-villain do with unlimited wishes from a magical genie? In the case of Harley Quinn, the answer is to screw it up- big time. Harley Quinn Be Careful What You Wish For Special feels like a classic “What If…” story while remaining comfortably nestled in the continuity of Harley’s rebirth universe.

Review: Harley Quinn #34

By Cat Wyatt

The last issue left us off with Harley and her gang (Tony, Ivy, and Queenie) heading off on a road trip. I would like to point out how – I called it. I said they were going to get themselves into some sort of trouble (well Harley getting everyone else into trouble at least), and I was right. Granted that’s not terribly surprising or out of the ordinary, but I’m going to take a win where I can.

Review: Koshchei: The Deathless #1

By Dustin Cabeal

HA! Jokes on Koshchei, because he’s fucking dead! I feel like Koshchei has one of those names that if you don’t hear it said properly the first time you’re going to butcher it forever or find something similar to it to call him. Like Cold Seat. Or John Koltrane, but nowhere near as talented. Anyway, Kochete takes place in the Mignolaverse of course. I am unfamiliar with the character, but the solicits indicate that he was once a throne in Hellboy’s ass. Now, he’s dead and having a drink with Hellboy, in hell, telling him his life story.

Review: Batman and the Signal #1

By Cat Wyatt
Batman and the Signal is a new series in the Batman universe, using characters and plots started in All-Star Batman and We Are Robin. Duke Thomas (AKA Signal) has decided to do something different from all of the other Bat heroes – he’s going to take on the crime that’s happening during the day. He’ll be the only one to do it. Adding to his differences is the fact that he’s a metahuman, and one that hasn’t really figured out his powers yet. It should make for an interesting ride, to say the least.

Review: Green Lanterns #38

By Cat Wyatt

If you thought the twist revealed in the last issue was something, then get ready to hop onboard for another ride. In issue 37 it was revealed the Liseth was part of the Red Tide (apparently we were supposed to understand that this was past tense for her, but I interpreted as a current status at the time). One can understand why Simon would find that so upsetting, to say the least. Here we get to see the reactions of everyone else, including Liseth’s mother.
