Review: Silencer #3

By Cat Wyatt

In the last issue of Silencer, Honor was left in what looked to be an impossible situation. Lured onto ‘neutral territory’ Honor found herself against a few dozen armed men. It’s clear that the only way to get out of the situation alive is to fight her way out. While I have no doubt she’ll succeed, I don’t envy her odds or the situation she is in.

Review: One-Punch Man vol. 13

By Dustin Cabeal

Having already read most of this volume on the Shonen Jump Weekly App, I wasn’t expecting much. At least not in terms of story surprises. There is something to be said about seeing Yusuke Murata’s artwork in print though. It translates to the page better. Thinking back on some of the digital pages, I feel like I was just reading the story and not taking in the artwork like I usually do. When I realized that, it made it worth it to read this volume again as a whole.

Review: Suicide Squad #38

By Cat Wyatt

Things have been pretty messy for the Suicide Squad the last few issues. First Hack started attacking Belle Rive as well as the inmates themselves (to figure out which one had killed her, of course), and then The Wall (run by none other than Rick Flag) used that excuse to invade the prison and take control. The last issue concluded with him knocking the whole team out (nothing new to them, of course), so who knows what’s happening now.

Review: Food Wars! vol. 23

By Dustin Cabeal

Well if this wasn’t the volume, I was fucking waiting for! Since I first started with this series, the biggest question I had has always revolved around Soma’s dad. As more small details emerged, it only made him more and more curious to the reader. With this latest arc, it became clear that whatever Azami was up to involved Joichiro.

Review: Motherlands #3

By Cat Wyatt

Motherlands #3 starts off with Tab and her (obnoxious) mother get a badly needed R&R and healing day (remember, Tab did actually get hurt in the last issue). The place they’re at is a sort of blend between a medical facility and a spa, which is actually an interesting concept. Apparently, they’ll make your body and aura feel better by the time you’re done. Or at least that’s the theory.

Review: Tokyo Ghoul vol. 14

By Dustin Cabeal

This marks the end of Tokyo Ghoul proper. I will decline reading wiki-pages that would clarify everything going on, but the gist is that after this volume is Tokyo Ghoul: re. Which is sure to confuse anime viewers when the third series by that name starts this month but is not the continuation of root A from what I understand. Pretty much, if you’re a Tokyo Ghoul fan, then who cares? Read it all, watch it all, just fucking enjoy it.

Review: Lumberjanes #48

By Cat Wyatt

It’s time for another Lumberjanes adventure! Some of the Lumberjanes have decided to team up and get the camp’s newsletter back up and running (which would have the added bonus of getting them a new badge). Oddly enough, our Roanoke cabin is not the forefront of this adventure, but instead, the Zodiac cabin is.

Review: Children of the Fall

By Thea Srinivasan

If there were one word, to sum up, this comic, I would call this “pitiful.” There was so much that could have been done with this, yet this was a piece that made me give myself a forehead slap. Before I go any further with this review, if you cannot handle violence or nudity, this comic is not for you.

Review: Batgirl #21

By Cat Wyatt

Issue #21 of Batgirl is more of a one-shot story than anything else, which works out well since the last plot has been fully wrapped up. This issue starts off ‘somewhere in Burnside’ where a redhead (not Barbara) is doing her nightly routine before bed. There’s a twist (of course, without a twist there’s no story), she’s trying a new cream tonight…one that has disastrous effects.

Review: Run For Your Lives #1

By Kelly Gaines

Run for Your Lives #1 is the book either based on or inspired by the popular 'Run for Your Lives 5K' that so many of my college acquaintances claimed to train for but never went to. The goal of a ‘Run for Your Life’ isn’t placing, nor is it the sweet satisfaction of reaching a personal goal. These runners run for their survival, a survival that is only ensured if they make it to the finish line. It’s the Hunger Games of the zombie apocalypse, with an American Ninja Warrior twist. Enough references? Apparently not. The issue is a vague and uninspired backstory that starts the series off completely on the wrong foot. Pun only partially intended.

Review: Batman Beyond #18

By Cat Wyatt

I’ve been waiting for Batman Beyond #18 to release for only a couple of week, realistically, but it feels like it’s been forever. With the reintroduction of Ten, I’ve found myself even more invested in finding out what is going to happen next. Especially since she’s in the hands of Payback (I’m a little bummed that her great reveal ended with her getting kidnapped, but I suppose that’s what happens when you’re not the main character in a series).

Review: Days of Hate #3

By Ben Snyder

 Days of Hate is not a pretty comic. It is ugly, and it is grimy. It is vicious, and it is pessimistic. But hot damn is it not accurate and forewarning. Writer Ales Kot and Artist Danijel Žeželj team up again for their post-political dystopian series and deliver an exceptionally strong outing with chapter #3. This is a very quiet character-driven story that works on multiple aspects, and while it can be a bit preachy at times, it is still smart and heavy hitting.

Review: Mother Panic Gotham A.D. #1

By Cat Wyatt

Mother Panic Gotham A.D. is a new series in the intermingled worlds of Batman and Mother Panic. Set ten years in the future, there’s no Batman, zero tolerance for vigilantes that aren’t pets of the aristocracy, and still plenty of a need for revenge. That’s the world that Violet Paige finds herself living in now.

Review: Abbott #3

By Ben Snyder

Out of a job and stretched to her wits end, Abbott #3 doesn’t leave it’s titular protagonist in the best of ways. There isn’t much more explained, but a few more interesting mysteries and a seemingly horrifying antagonist make this entry another strong entry into the Abbott series. Some of the minor gripes of the series are still present such as writer Saladin Ahmed’s overuse of speech bubbles, but that shouldn’t detract from a fun and enjoyable read.

Review: Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #41

By Cat Wyatt

The last issue of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps left us off at a rough point; the mission to rescue Hal Jordan is underway, but as of the end of the issue hadn’t actually completed. When last we saw him, Hal was finally up and fighting again, a happy sight to be sure. I’ve been anxious for the past two weeks, and I’m sure I’m not the only one that has been looking forward to this rematch.

Review: Lumberjanes: Bonus Tracks

By Cat Wyatt

Fans of Lumberjanes will be thrilled to have all of the short stories and single issues (so far) all in one place; Bonus Tracks. Included are some fantastic shorts, such as Beyond Bay Leaf, Makin’ The Ghost of It, Sphinxes and Riddles and Wishes Oh My!, Faire and Square, and finally Las Estrellas Del Campo: Edicion Lumberjanes. Being that these are primarily one-shot stories, the authors and artists for these issues vary pretty dramatically. But they all contain the characters we’ve come to know and love, so I’m happy with it!
