Review: Ultraman vol. 9
By Dustin Cabeal
The last volume wrapped up a big chunk of the story and began threading the needle for the next big arc. In a way, this volume feels like a brand-new volume. It follows a new character and introduces not one, but two new Ultramen… damn series is going Ultra crazy with the Ultramen if you ask me, but it always works out.
Review: Harley Quinn #40
By Cat Wyatt
Issue #39 of Harley Quinn left most of Coney Island in varying levels of chaos. The Penguin’s goons and other enlisted villains have been wreaking merry havoc on the place (especially Killer Croc), Eggy got himself egg-napped (sorry, couldn’t resist), Coach also got kidnapped (what is with this group getting kidnapped all the time), and Harley is taking on more fights than she can handle. In short, it’s a recipe for disaster.
Review: Astra: Lost in Space vol. 2
By Dustin Cabeal
Typically, in manga, when a group of kids is thrown together, they usually become chums. It takes a volume, but it’s so commonplace that it stands out when that doesn’t happen. Even with some of the groundwork being laid out in the first volume, our group of teens lost in space aren’t the best of friends. There’s some that get alone better than others, and two of them still haven’t integrated into the group at all.
Review: Batwoman #13
By Cat Wyatt
Issue #13 of Batwoman starts off with Kate searching desperately for her sister, Elizabeth. She’s on a video conference with the asylum that supposedly is taking care of her, but they’re giving her a BS answer that certainly makes it appear that they’re covering up for her kidnapping (given asylums reputations in the Batman universe, this isn’t terribly shocking. Though it certainly is disappointing). Thankfully Kate already knows who took her, because the asylum is being worse than useless.
Review: Dark Fang #5
By Cat Wyatt
In Dark Fang #4 we were left off with Valla in a very dangerous situation. I’m not going to lie to you; I’ve been very worried about her ever since I read the last issue. This issue picks up right where things left off; with Valla hanging in chains and her captor gloating all the while about his success and his divinity (which I would love to bring into question, based on his actions alone).
Review: Cici’s Journal: The Adventures of a Writer-in-Training
By Dustin Cabeal
Once upon a time seems like a good place to start. That is who Cici’s Journal begins, and I have admittedly been staring at the screen trying to find an opening for this review. Usually, when I start a review I know the tone, be it positive or negative, I know where I stand. The only time this is a struggle is when there are numerous pluses and minuses of the work being reviewed. It leaves you trying to find a starting point because once the review gets started you trust that you’ll figure it all out. At least, that’s how I review, but I’m probably a terrible example.
Review: Batman #43
By Cat Wyatt
Batman #43 ended with a bang, so to speak. Poison Ivy has taken control of almost every human being on the planet (with the obvious exceptions of Bruce Wayne and Selena Kyle). Being that they’re two of the last people left with free will, they’re feeling somewhat compelled to try and do something to stop what is happening. During their attempts, Bruce may or may not (read: totally did) pushed Ivy a little much and taken a full Superman punch to the face. Needless to say, that didn’t go over to well.
