Review: Deathstroke: The Terminator #1-8 (2026)

November 2, 2026

By Dustin Cabeal

As comic readers, I think there are always characters that people want to write or draw more than other characters. There is something about them that inspires the imagination—be it a story element or background piece that entices the mind to daydream about the endless possibilities with that particular character. Deathstroke is one of those characters for me. This particular volume of his titular series really digs into his long and rich backstory: Deathstroke’s creation of the League of Assassins, his wife, his children, his extensive training, and his abilities. It puts all the complicated pieces together in a cohesive, understandable package for new readers while also exciting longtime readers. It’s a series that reminds everyone what makes a comic great and why nothing else can replace it.

Review: Sheena #1

By Ashley Gibbs

Having not been thoroughly impressed with the teaser, Sheena #0, I went into Sheena #1 hesitant but still hopeful. Surely the story was going to get exciting, and any issues from before would smooth themselves out, right? Somehow this is both better and worse at the same time. We’re given a bit more action, and Sheena faces actual problems this time around, but it’s hard to invest in the story yet, and the artwork isn’t helping either. Mediocre would be the best way to describe this comic, and while that’s not horrible, it’s a disappointment for those like myself seeking more strong, well written female characters on the comic landscape.

Review: Flash #30

By Justin McCarty

When I saw this was the start of a new story arc, I really thought this would be a good jumping on point, but it looks like I missed the big Flash moments. This issue has the Flash going up against a new villain called Bloodwork. This issue had potential, but there’s not much that stands out about this issue. The overall arc may be worth sticking with if you’re a longtime Flash fan. However, I didn’t find this issue a satisfying place to start on the Rebirth Flash.

Review: Skin & Earth #3

By Ashley Gibbs

Living on the wrong side of town in a post-apocalyptic world and having recently suffered a broken heart, En’s life isn’t going so well at the moment. Skin & Earth #3 introduces a new, mysterious character into her life and that’s about it. The series is the brainchild of Canadian singer Lights and links up with her upcoming album of the same name with songs directly related to the comic itself. However, the songs and music videos currently available have been more interesting than the comic tie-in. Halfway through a run promising crazy romance, cults, and self-discovery for En, yet so far only the first has happened. While a good read, those seeking a faster pace may be disappointed.

Preview: Sink #1 Out Today!

By Dustin Cabeal

I'll be honest; I thought Sink was already out. Sometimes I'm lost in the bubble of the inside baseball that is the site, and so I don't know when anything releases. That said, you should fucking pick this book up. If you need more convincing, then read the preview or my reviews for the first three issues below. To give you an idea of how damn good Sink is, it's in the running for my best book of the year.
