Review: Batman: Prelude to the Wedding - Robin Vs. Ra’s Al Ghul #1
By Noel Thorne
It always happens: a popular storyline comes along, and the publisher decides to exploit it by tying in a bunch of pointless comics that devoted fans will buy, naively thinking they’re important to the storyline, which they never are, nor are they ever any good.
Review: The Man of Steel #1
By Garrett Hanneken
The highly anticipated Superman comic is finally here. After getting a taste of Bendis’ Superman in Action Comics #1000, readers can now better gauge what will be in stores for them. Personally, I thought the preview in Action Comics #1000 was outstanding for its villain, action, and twist at the end but despite that, The Man of Steel #1 proves to be a slower start than initially expected.
Review: Tinseltown #2
Tinseltown #2 picks up where #1 left off and is the second in a five issue limited series. This is another one of Alterna Comics current titles and it is one of the most enjoyable thus far. The story isn’t as gripping this time around by comparison to the first issue, but we are still progressing. There is still a lot of good potential swirling around in this series.
Review: The Couch #2
By Hunter T. Patrick
Yet another issue that should be widely available. This is a world where superheroes and villains exist. That is true for almost every single comic world. The difference in this comic is the fact that this does not revolve around superheroes, and it manages not to be overshadowed by their presence, at least in the first issue. In issue two we meet The Wrecking Ball. The first issue succeeded with the heroes in the background, and this issue succeeds more with Wrecking Ball front and center. The couch refers to the psychologist chair in the protagonist’s place. Having a superhero on that couch makes for a very interesting dynamic. Most of the issue is flashbacks to when Wrecking Ball was younger, before his super days.
Review: Go West #3
By Sam King
Go West #3 is the final issue in a three issue limited series published by Alterna Comics. While the first two issues were decent setup, the third act and finale fails to feel all that satisfying. The violence level is the same level of intensity and awesome, but story wise… you’re basically just getting a generic western in comic form. The futuristic element doesn’t do much for the story.
Review: The Edge Off
By Hunter T. Patrick
Just how a one-shot should be. In a very simplified premise to this comic, a ‘fixer’’ has his daughter kidnapped, and he tries to save her. For a living, he does dangerous, obviously illegal work for his higher-ups and once his daughter has gotten involved, he decides to spring into a very violent persona to make sure no matter what he can get her back. The premise is one that has been shown before, and as has the huge twist of an ending. Luckily both are extremely strong and worth the huge ride showed here. If somehow spoilers are presented to you, avoid them. The ending is well earned. This is a one-shot that takes the short length of a comic book and has so much on this issue that is neither too much or too little. It is beyond just right.
Review: Clan Killers #1
By Damien Becton
For a while now, Aftershock Comics has been one of my favorite comic book publishers since its’ launch a few years ago. They have been consistent throughout their short journey with the stories that they choose to publish and the art that they decide to commission. The last Aftershock that I picked up was Her Infernal Descent, and two issues in, it’s fair to say that I am having a complete blast with that title. So, when I saw a new #1 title launch, I was eager to dive in and give it a good read, considering Aftershock’s current lineup of titles. I am glad to say that with Clan Killers #1, Aftershock has another solid title that I am on board with.
Review: Long Live Pro Wrestling #0
By Sam King
Long Live Pro Wrestling #0 takes a former wrestler and puts him on a talk show. It presents the different perspectives on professional wrestling and then takes a humorous twist. This is a quick issue that kicks into some action, but the main storytelling goal or conflict has not yet been presented for the series.
Review: Heavenly Blues #6
By Cat Wyatt
This may be hard to believe, but it’s time for the last issue of Heavenly Blues. It’s been clear for a while now that there’s more going on with this scheme than meets the eyes, so it should be interesting to see how their grand heist plan actually pans out. Here’s hoping everything works out for our group of unlikely protagonists.
Review: Heavenly Blues #5
By Cat Wyatt
Issue #5 of Heavenly Blues continues the tale of our dead criminals, this time with a focus on James. This fact is immediately made obvious by the fact that James is on the cover of the issue, usually a good indicator in this series that the character’s backstory is about to be revealed.
