Review: Oblivion Song #1
By Dustin Cabeal
By no means does Robert Kirkman need my praise. I’m not going to pat him on the back for still making comics and all that noise. He’s a writer I’ve drifted away from because his style has developed into a steady rhythm. It’s not bad, it's just not amazing either. It’s consistent, but you tend to know what you’re getting with your characters and just waiting for the twists to happen.
Review: Ghost Money #7
By Dustin Cabeal
As I said in this week’s podcast, this was my first encounter with Ghost Money. Which sucks because it only has three more issues. Had I discovered it sooner, you would likely have been reading my seventh review of the series, instead of the first.
Review: Skybourne #5
By Dustin Cabeal
The problem with reviewing Skybourne is that for some people they’re going to take it as me reviewing Frank Cho himself. Which is unfortunate because I just want to make jokes about how this comic was never that good, to begin with, and that if you were waiting for this issue, you’re probably surprised that it arrived in 2018 instead of 2020.
Review: Sideways #1
By Dustin Cabeal
The first thing to point out about this issue is that the collaboration is confusing and awesome. Where else in comics can you have Kenneth Rocafort and Dan DiDio be the storytellers and then Justin Jordan and Dan DiDio be in charge of dialogue? In a way, it’s a bit old school in which the artist is in command of the story with some guidance from the writers, but everyone’s getting credit and no one’s making millions off of the dead.

Kate Gavino Brings Sanpaku To BOOM! Studios
Press Release
BOOM! Studios is proud to announceSANPAKU, a new original graphic novel (OGN) from cartoonist Kate Gavino (Last Night’s Reading) that gives voice to the insecurities that haunt teens of all cultures. Arriving in stores August 2018, this OGN tells the story of Marcine, a woman fascinated with the Japanese idea of Sanpaku—that seeing the white around the iris of your eyes is a bad omen. But it’s everywhere Marcine looks—her grandmother has it, some classmates at Catholic school have it, JFK had it…even Marcine might suffer from this odd condition. Eating a strict macrobiotic diet and meditating is supposed to help, but no matter how much Marcine wants it to, it can’t save her grandmother’s life or make her days at school any easier.

Review: Justice League of America #24
By Jonathan Edwards
With Justice League of America #22, Steve Orlando rose to the occasion and finally wrote what I would call the first truly decent issue of his run on the series proper (meaning not including the prequel one-shots). Sure, issue #17 ended with some legitimate character development for Ryan, but that was in spite of the first half, as well as every other issue in that story arc, being crappy. And yes, if you ignore the art problems, the Annual was a relatively fine read. But, with double the page count and only about a third of the main cast (read: Lobo and Black Canary), it failed to represent or even adequately connect to the rest of the series, and it sure as hell didn’t give the impression that the book, as a whole, would be getting any better. However, that changed with JLA #22. We finally got a villain with some complexity to her, and none of the title team’s members did anything too stupid. And then, Justice League of America #23 managed to keep it mostly together. But, as I said in my review for that issue, it takes three to form a pattern. So, here we are with Justice League of America #24, the upshot of which is twofold. On the one hand, it appears that Orlando has indeed settled into a new, less stupid standard for his last half-dozen issues of JLA. But, at the same time, there’s been a conceptual short-sightedness that’s been at the heart of his work on this title, and it returns as clear cut as ever here.
Review: Lumberjanes Vol. 8: Stone Cold
By Cat Wyatt
While the wait for the next volume pretty much felt unbearable, we’re finally there! I keep wondering/worrying that we’re going to see the end of the summer on the horizon, but based on some of the theories forming about time dilation I’m starting to feel a little safer about this series. I don’t see it ending sooner than it wants to (though perhaps it’ll do what Gothic Academy did and have ‘breaks’ but always come back to the story, just a year later? It’d be interesting to see how the girls/guys would change after a year away).
