Comic Book Review: ‘Batwoman’ #17
It should be noted, with much sadness, that this is the last issue of this series to be illustrated by the genius that is J.H. Williams III. He will be sticking around to co-write the title with W. Haden Blackman, but without his innovative illustrations, this book will be... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Revival’ #7
Welcome back to Wassau, Wisconsin for Issue #7 of Revival, where some the dead have trouble staying dead, no one seems to know why, least of all Dana Cypress, the cop investigating the “Revival”. If you thought this was going to be a typical zombie sort of comic,... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Star Trek: Countdown Into Darkness’ #2
It’s time for issue #2 of Countdown to Darkness, which means we only have two more months to wait for Into Darkness. Needless to say, I’m giddy with excitement. But don’t get too excited. The cover insinuates that there will be heavy amount of Uhura but she... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Deadpool’ #5
Since Deadpool joined the fray along with the other heroes in Marvel NOW!, he’s had his hands full dealing with some dead presidents. No, not in the fun way that involves booze, women, and chimichangas (which is what I imagine Deadpool spends money on). He’s been tasked with... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Vibe’ #1
So, it’s finally here! As noted on the cover “The Unlikeliest Hero” gets his own book… a series no one thought would ever happen. Yet here it is, Vibe #1, starring the break dancing, Latin stereotype from the reviled “Justice League Detroit”... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Alpha: Big Time’ #1
“With great power comes great opportunity.” That’s not quite how the saying went that brought Peter Parker to being such a role model to the super hero community, but it’s the advice that we read in the first issue of Alpha: Big Time. The problem here... -

Continuing the trend of getting to know these new members of the Avengers roster in Jonathan Hickman’s excellent new Marvel NOW! series, the latest issue focuses on arguably the most mysterious member of the team, Captain Universe. After her appearance in ‘Avengers’ #3... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Nova’ #1

Comic Book Review: ‘Captain Marvel’ #10
Last issue, in a nice “day in the life” tale, Carol was given the startling news that she had a brain lesion that meant that she could never fly again. In this issue, she has to deal with that. She laments on how much she loves flying, how it provides a zen calming... -
Comic Book Review: ‘Justice League of America’ #1

Comic Book Review: ‘Superior Spider-Man’ #4
At first glance, one might get the impression that Dan Slott was slipping into a funk with ‘Superior Spider-Man’. After all, how could a villain like Massacre headline the next story arc of this great title following the great character-establishing tale that came before...
