Review: Lucy Dreaming #3
By Cat Wyatt
The third installment of Lucy Dreaming is here, bringing us past the halfway point of the series (it’s a five-part miniseries). This has been an imaginative and unique series so far, and now that we know what’s happening to Lucy and why we should be free to dig into the real plot of the story.
Review: Persephone
By Kelly Gaines
It’s rare to find a refreshing retelling of Greek Mythology, but Boom Studios new title has managed to circumvent the cliche pitfalls and create something unique. Persephone blends elements of the queen of the underworld’s tale into a new setting- one with its own rich history and endearing cast. The story still frames an ancient power struggle between the beings that walk the earth and the menacing creatures confined to the Underworld, but Persephone, Hades, and Demeter have a new face- and a beautifully crafted new story about magic, family, and choice.
Review: Xerxes: The Fall of The House of Darius and The Rise of Alexander #2
By Ben Snyder
Despite the disappointment I felt last month after reading Xerxes #1, I couldn’t help but feel hopeful for the follow up issue Xerxes: The Fall of the House of Darius and The Rise of Alexander #2. Unfortunately, I am left feeling as thought his series is entirely unnecessary and disappointing. Frank Miller’s script continues to be a slog due to his overused narration and reliance on Greek prayers and feels half finished. Miller’s art however takes it to another level, an extremely poor one. It all collides to create a feeling that this entire endeavor was rushed and unfinished.
Review: Harley Loves Joker #2
By Hunter T. Patrick
For a comic that is meant to be cartoony, this hits hard. Some themes lightly touched upon in the past installments are at full play here. This is a wonderful celebration of Harley in the time she was dating Joker. Her past, present (at the time) and future (current Harley) all appear and helps make this a must-read for Harley fans. This finishes off very strongly which is a delight after the last issue focus too much on The Grison, a weird Cheetah rip off. If she was not so physically resembling Cheetah and if her somewhat interesting origin did not weigh down the last issue, then maybe she could live on, but I struggle to see this character return, except in maybe a cameo or a one-off return then disappearance.
Review: Batman #47
By Cat Wyatt
Issue number 47 of Batman brings about the end to the Gift plotline (AKA the Booster Gold plot). While it was interesting, I have to say that I won’t be sad to see it go. Time to get on to bigger and better things! (Here’s hoping the wedding they’ve been building up to is both). Still, I was curious to see how they’d resolve the conundrum Booster created…
Review: The Brave and the Bold: Batman and Wonder Woman #4
By Hunter T. Patrick
Wonder Woman is probably one of the most overlooked characters in comics. As the greatest female superhero hands down (sorry Gwenpool) she is rarely spoken of in the same way as Batman or Superman are. The movie helped Wonder Woman in being a character who deserves the spotlight. I am guilty of always overlooking Wonder Woman, but it is hard not to when Superman and Batman have so many adaptions between them, and even Iron Man has more than Wondy. People can even name more quotes from Groot then Wonder Woman. I began to appreciate Wonder Woman thanks to her epic rebirth run, and Liam Sharp has helped tremendously for my love for Diana.
Review: Nuclear Winter
By Sam King
Nuclear Winter is an original graphic novel that was written by Cab, who also did the art. It is an interesting slice of life story with a twist on it, that takes place in Canada. Serious themes like the ones present in X-Men, with a mix of Chernobyl, meets a plucky heroine carrying out a routine job in really bad weather. It is fun and entertaining, without being dark, dreary, and bleak despite the radiation.
Review: The Dead Hand #2
By Ben Snyder
Once again I find myself hooked by another twist so cleverly placed at the end of The Dead Hand #2. Each chapter, I feel as if I understand the world of Mountain View and am fairly knowledgeable of its rules only for the end to upheave me. Writer Kyle Higgins, artist Stephen Mooney, and Colorist Jordie Bellaire continue to contort tropes and subvert expectations in the latest issue of The Dead Hand resulting in another standout chapter for the fledgling series.
Review: Death of Love #4
By Cat Wyatt
The second to last issue of Death of Love is here, and I have to admit it’s already a little bittersweet. I’ve been enjoying this series, so I’ll be sad to see it go. In the meantime, I’m going to do my very best to enjoy it while I have it! In the last issue, we saw Philo drugging his two (and possibly only) friends to prove that he wasn’t crazy (because that’s the sort of thing a sane and considerate person would do…oh wait), and well…they now understand what he’s been wailing about this whole time.
Review: Goosebumps: Download and Die! #3
By Garrett Hanneken
Goosebumps Download and Die reached its conclusion and as expected it gathers up the monsters placed throughout the story for its final issue. However, its execution resulted in a lackluster homage to the original series.
Review: Dodge City #3
Last issue, the Jazz Panda dodge ball team saw the return of a former teammate and a lot of drama was stirring up. This time we get more game and less emotional strife, but we see the team having good chemistry and teamwork. It is another fun issue that pushes the pacing up at a point where some adrenaline was definitely needed.
Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #82
By Damien Becton
There is definitely a lot of work that goes into making a comic book - not even an entire run, just a single issue. Sometimes there is the concern of having “too many cooks in the kitchen” for effective storytelling to take place. As I read the opening pages of the book and saw the credits, I had initial concerns of “too many cooks in the kitchen” when I noticed long series of names TMNT had attached to it. Tom Waltz and Kevin Eastman and Bob Curnow and Dave Wachter and Ronda Pattison was a mouthful. However, I’m glad to say that I was proven wrong with TMNT #82. Eastman and Waltz have been writing these characters for a long time, and it shows.
Review: Green Lanterns #47
By Cat Wyatt
We’re nearing the conclusion to the Ghosts of the Past plot, and man have things gotten pretty intense. Jess is trapped inside her own memories, courtesy of Singularity Jain; Simon is trying to get inside to rescue her, and the rest of the Justice League are waiting outside and probably wishing they could do more to help.

Review: Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle #1
By: Thea Srinivasan
To anyone who thinks princesses are always spoiled, you’re not entirely wrong. Most of the modern world’s princesses are relatively unknown and they live peaceful lives. While we occasionally hear the story about a regular woman becoming a princess, we’re lucky enough to never hear about how princesses are kidnapped by other people. But when a princess ends up killing half of an enemy’s guard for her selfish needs, members on the kidnapping side would begin to think about her underlying motives.
Review: Justice League: No Justice #1
By Jonathan Edwards
To be perfectly honest, I wasn’t exactly excited about this book, and that’s mainly because Scott Snyder is in the driver’s seat. Don’t get me wrong; I like him well enough as a writer. However, the Snyder-spearheaded Dark Nights: Metal only just wrapped up back in March, yet here he is with another crossover event impacting the whole of the DCU. Okay, sure, James Tynion IV and Joshua Williamson are co-writing Justice League: No Justice, but Snyder’s the one with top billing. And, regardless of the actual quality of his work, that starts to be just a little bit too much company-wide creative control for a single writer for my taste. But, despite going in feeling that way, I still quite enjoyed Justice League: No Justice #1.

I picked up Transdimensional having no prior knowledge of the subject. Not even the Kickstarter description. If I had, I probably would have skipped it. I am probably one of five comics fans that don't get into sci-fi horror. The Kickstarter describes the comic as being a sci-fi horror in the same family as Alien and The Abyss. I’ve seen Alien maybe (just the one - sad face from you probably), not The Abyss. I wasn’t the proper audience for this comic. However, if I was into this type of story, I could see its appeal.
