Review: Saltwater
By Oliver Gerlach
Rick Quinn and Dana Obera’s Saltwater is an interesting issue that deserves to be noticed. It’s the story of a city split in two, with a beautiful upper half and a rusting submarine half filled with slave labour keeping the rest of it running. If that’s at all interesting to you as a premise, you might want to check this one out. It’s a very slick, visually striking work from a creative team that could well go far together.
Review: Dalston Monsterzz
By Dustin Cabeal
Ever just look at a cover and know that you’re going to love the hell out of something? Sure there are the occasional misses, but there was just something about the cover and art style of Dalston Monsterzz that just spoke to me. It hit all the right buttons and made my mouth water. Thankfully the story was equally as great because that would have been a letdown.
Review: Beautiful Canvas #3
By Ben Snyder
As Beautiful Canvas continually unfurls, the chaotic super powered world and the people who inhabit are revealed as well. Once again we are left with little definitive answers regarding any major characters, but inexplicably Beautiful Canvas #3 does a better job than the prior issue in handling the chaos.
Review: Fruit Ninja #1
By Dustin Cabeal
I have to assume this is based on a show or something. It’s clearly not based just off the game in which you use your finger to swipe across the screen and cut fruit in half while attempting to get a high score and not hit any bombs and shit. I wanted to read it because it looked like dumb fun, it ended up only being one of those things and it’s the former, not the latter.
Review: The Girl Who Played With Fire #1
By Justin McCarty
From Titan Comics’ and Hard Case Crime we have the English translation of the most recent comic adaptation for the Millennium Series novels written by Stieg Larsson. This adaptation was written by Sylvain Runberg with art by Manuel Carot Gonzalez. It’s a sequel to The Girl With A Dragon Tattoo published earlier this year, which finishes up this October. With another novel in the series due out this month, Titan may have seen an opportunity to do an English translation of the acclaimed French comics adaptation.
Review: The Black Sable #1
By Dustin Cabeal
It seems that Zenescope’s new formula for books is familiar themes. For The Black Sable, it would be a pirate or in this case a space pirate that gets wrapped up in a big score and a lot of danger. It’s not unfamiliar in the least bit, but it actually presents an interesting story with a creative world.
Review: My Little Pony the Movie Prequel #4
By Ashley Gibbs
Welcome to the last issue in this miniseries, where things certainly end with a bang. Not in an action sense but more in a story sense. I’ve had very lukewarm feelings about this series so far. The last issue was my least favorite of the four but My Little Pony the Movie Prequel #4 somehow pulled out some decent storytelling in the final hour and even made me curious about a character who I previously wrote off as just a bad fan fiction insert. Granted, I still think Tempest Shadow is edgy for the sake of being edgy, but clearly, with good writing, she can still be interesting. If you’re a fan of that character, pick up this issue for sure, and if you’ve somehow enjoyed the previous three, then this will be a nice way to wrap up the story thus far.

7 Must-Read Wonder Woman Comics for Fans
At one point, we were all convinced DC was never going to see real success with their superhero and comic movies. Marvel was hitting homerun after homerun and DC was left in the dark. Sure, they may have been selling tickets, but that was because dedicated fans were prepared to offer them chance after chance. Then Wonder Woman came along and changed everything.
Review: The Fist #4
By Dustin Cabeal
One of the best comics from 2016 returns with its fourth issue, and I have to say; I’m back to loving this series. I will fully admit that I was a little let down by the third issue of The Fist, but the fourth issue is a return to form.
