Trailer Time: Titan Comics' Robotech #1

Not just another retelling of the Macross saga ...

In July, the story continues as we bring Carl Macek's original vision full circle. Taking into account every iteration of the series, this new Robotech #1 casts a fresh eye over classic characters like Rick Hunter, Lisa Hayes, Lynn Minmei, Roy Fokker, Claudia Grant, and Henry Gloval. Brian Wood and Marco Turini take us back to a Macross Island where *nothing* can be taken for granted.

Through Gambit's Eyes - Will the Gamble Pay Off?

Gambit has been a favorite among fans of the Marvel comic book universe since his first appearances in Uncanny X-Men Annual #14 and Uncanny X-Men #266, both published in 1990. Also known as Ragin’ Cajun, the good-streaked mutant rogue from New Orleans has stirred the hearts and imagination of many with his personality as much as his explosive card-slinging skills. Anticipation for the upcoming movie adaptation has been building with every update, whether related to a new juicy detail or another delay. Perhaps, its creators’ lengthy deliberation will result in an X-Men instalment to rival the public’s approval and box-office success of Deadpool and Logan. Good things come to those who wait, as they say, and it is hoped that this will be one such case.

Review: Rose #2

By Levi Remington

Rose, a high fantasy series that is teetering a bit too close to the familiar, releases its second issue this week. While my first impressions were favorable towards the art, I was left wanting when the story retread such mundane, overdone territory. Does the second issue expand upon the first in a memorable way? Not exactly, but the art is still excellent.

Review: Royal City #3

By Jonathan Edwards

I swear, with every new issue of Royal City, I read it, love it, and want more. Lemire does such a good job of setting and maintaining a tone that it hardly takes any effort to slip back into the same emotional space each month. Furthermore, he has a specific way of revealing information so that it informs about the characters and world while also generating further intrigue and follow-up questions. As far as I can tell, the "model" (if you want to call it that) tends to be something of a reversed order of events. We meet a character who's feeling a certain way or in a certain state of mind. Then, we slowly move backwards to find out the actual event that got them there. And after that, we uncover what led to that event. For example, Tara and her husband Steve have been at odds since the first issue, and with this one we finally learn what the cause of that was (I refuse to spoil it). And now, the question becomes "what else was going on before it that affected and led up to it?" It's really great stuff, and I can only presume it will all eventually lead back to finding out exactly what happened to Tommy Pike.
