Review: Go West #2

By Sam King

Go West is kind of like a blend of Jonah Hex and John Wick, but set in a post-apocalyptic future. It's supposed to be dangerous like the Old West but as a result of a barren landscape created by a war in modern times. Arthur Slade has a dark past in which he killed people and made money, similar to Jonah Hex, with his face scarred to boot (an occupational marker no doubt), but with a personal vendetta involving family and revenge like John Wick.

Review: Mobile Suit Gundam: Thunderbolt vol. 5-6

By Dustin Cabeal

Mobile Suit Gundam: Thunderbolt vol 5 and 6 are very different from each other. Its one of the many reasons this continues to be one of these best Gundam titles in the franchises long lineage. Here comes the “but,” in an attempt to catch up on my reviews I’m going to have to double up on this series, unfortunately, but I will be breaking them down separately.

Review: Green Lanterns #44

By Cat Wyatt

With all of the major plot arcs from recent issues wrapped up, Green Lanterns #44 is free to take a bit of a break; not that they’re going to, of course. This issue brings the return of Singularity Jain – finally! I’ve been wondering what the heck she’s been up to since we last saw her, and I’m sure I’m not the only one that’s been curious and concerned (let’s be honest here; there’s no way it’s a good idea to have that woman running off unsupervised throughout the galaxy).

Review: Master Keaton vol. 12

By Dustin Cabeal

Wonderful storytelling like Master Keaton doesn’t exist anymore. Much in the way that writing changed after the TV was invented there will be another large look at how writing changed after the internet was invented. Master Keaton is a look at a bygone era. One in which cellphones and computers weren’t available or used. It’s a wonderful escape from other stories, and I’m sad that this is the last volume for the timeless series.

Review: Justice League of America #25

By Jonathan Edwards

Simply put, Justice League of America #25 is a boring issue. And, I don’t mean just low-key. Low-key is to be expected from the issue following a story arc’s conclusion. Some writers monopolize on that phenomenon by writing the issue as an epilogue or character-focused one-shot. Orlando has attempted that at times throughout his JLA run, and it would’ve worked if those issues had been better. However, after finishing the arc he’d spent almost twenty issues building up to, he’s opted to start right in on the next one. Granted, that is perhaps more a symptom of him learning his run will soon end than his discretion as a writer. Regardless, the problem isn’t actually that he rolls right into another big (well, as “big” as two issues can be) arc. In fact, at first, it seems like this might actually be a great jumping on point if, for some reason, you wanted to jump on the book right at the end of its lifespan. But, what makes “New Life and Death” ultimately not work is the fact that it’s basically a less interesting, less relevant, and somehow clumsier, retread of “Deadly Fable” that also tries way too hard to tie into the events of Dark Nights: Metal.

Review: Shade the Changing Woman #2

By Kelly Gaines

Don’t let the bright colors and swirling patterns fool you- Shade the Changing Woman #2 takes Shade’s new arc down a darker road than before. Post Milk Wars, Loma/ Megan/ Shade, has died and been reborn, shedding the skin of her former identities and settling into her role as the new Shade. Accompanied by her Raq Shade spirit guide, the Changing Woman is trying to find her place in a world that doesn’t seem to want her in it. I’ve heard the criticism that Shade the Changing Girl stripped the Shade mythology of its previous complexity. If you’re one of those critics, don’t jump ship just yet. This series is barreling towards a dizzying existential crisis and taking all of us readers along for the ride.
