Written by: Imani Vellani, Sabir Pirzada Art by: Carlos Gomez, Adam Gorham Coloring by: Erick Ariniega Lettering by: VC’s Joe Caramagna Editing by: Sara Pichelli, Matthew Wilson Now, I’ve never been the biggest Ms. Marvel fan. I’ve never disliked her, I just didn’t care for the Inhumans. They didn’t feel like…
Written by: Steve Foxe Art by: Jonas Scharf Coloring by: Frank Martin Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles Editing by: Lauren Amarao, Jordan D. White Now, I’ve never been a fan of Madelyne Pryor, nor have I been a hater. I just straight up haven’t gotten the chance to love this character.…

Silva, Joshua Cassara, Kris Anka, Pepe Larraz Coloring by: Rain Beredo, Ceci De La Cruz, Matthew Wilson, Erick Arciniega, Marte Garcia Lettering by: Virtual Calligraphy Editing by: Lauren Amaro, Jordan D.

Written by: Joshua Williamson Art by: Giuseppe Camuncoli, Stefano Nesi, Caspar Wijngaard Coloring by: Frank Martin, Caspar Wijngaard Lettering by: Troy Peteri Editing by: Ben Abernathy For a book that’s supposed to be the first issue of an event, it’s really weird that it feels like issue #2. No, seriously, once…
“Love is Lightning” by Grant Morrison, Hayden Sherman, Marissa Louise and Aditya Bidikar “And Baby Makes Three” by Leah Williams, Paulina Ganucheau and Frank Cvetkovic “Hey, Stranger” by Nadia Shammas, Bruka Jones, Tamra Bonvillain and Frank Cvetkovic “Subspace Transmission” by A.L.

Written by: Joshua Williamson Art by: Sean Izaakse Coloring by: Romulo Fajardo Jr. Lettering by: Troy Peteri Editing by: Ben Abernathy Now, I would never say I’m a huge Green Arrow guy. I am a huge Black Canary guy because she’s the bees-knees and needs her own book. But Green Arrow…
Written by: Greg Rucka, Eric Trautmann Art by: Mike Henderson Coloring by: Nolan Woodard Lettering by: Ariana Maher Editing by: Alejandro Arbona Have you ever wanted a Warhammer comic that was less aggressively grimdark and more aggressively sexual? That’s the vibe the Forged #1 has. It’s far more colorful and upbeat,…
Written by: Danny Lore Art by: Karen S. Darboe Coloring by: Cris Peter Lettering by: VC’s Joe Sabino Editing by: Martin Biro, Annalise Bissa I’m not a Blade guy, but I have nothing against Blade either. So I walked into this book with few expectations. That means I also tried to…
Written by: Kieron Gillen Art by: Lucas Werneck Coloring by: Bryan Valenza Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles Editing by: Lauren Amaro, Jordan D. White The X-Men are known for their alternate futures, each about how the world can end and where mutants will be during the end. First, was Days of…
If you know me and what I read, you should not be surprised to learn that SomethingCentral’s top ten favorite comic books of 2022 are still DC and Marvel-dominated, X-Men-dominated specifically. While there wasn’t anything not from the Big-two last year, you may be surprised by this year’s best spots. I…
Written by: Todd McFarlane Art by: Greg Capullo Inking by: Todd McFarlane Coloring by: Dave McCaig Lettering by: Tom Napolitano Editing by: Ben Abernathy, Marie Javins Batman / Spawn is a rare book where I think it would have been better with no narration. Maybe even no dialogue. I say this…
Written by: Zeb Wells Art by: Adam Kubert Coloring by: Frank Martin Lettering by: VC’s Joe Carmagna Editing by: Kaeden McGahey, Albert Banaszak Alright, I am a known X-Men fan, so it’s not shocking that I would read anything with the merry mutants in the title. But Spider-Man? With the way…
Written by: Geoff Johns Art by: Diego Olortegui with Jip Mayer and Scott Hanna, Jerry Ordway, Steve Lieber, Todd Nauck, Scott Kolins, Viktor Bogdanovic, Brandon Peterson, Gary Frank Coloring by: Nick Filardi, John Kalisz, Matt Herms, Jordan Boyd, Brad Anderson Lettering by: Rob Leigh Editing by: Marquis Draper, Andrew Marino, Katie…
Written by: Tate Brombal Illustrated by: Nick Robles Lettering by: Andworld Design Editing by: Ramiro Portnoy, Eric Harburn Maybe you’ve heard, I really like Boom! Studios and the books they put out. They do some franchise adaptations, but they’re better known and celebrated for the original comics they put out. Think…
Written by: Al Ewing, Danny Lore, Rebecca Roanhorse, Chris Cooper, Chris Condon, Adam Warren Art by: Ramon Bachs, Karen S. Darboe, Geoff Shaw, Ibrahim Moustafa, Fran Galan, Adam Warren Coloring by: Rain Beredo, Cris Peter, Arif Prianto, Neeraj Menon, James Campbell, Guru-eFX Lettering by: Travis Lanham Editing by: Lauren Amaro, Jordan…
Written by: Ed Brisson Art by: John Timms Coloring by: Rex Lokus Lettering by: Clayton Cowles Editing by: Ben Abernathy Batman Incorporated has a history of putting the spotlight on characters who wouldn’t normally get the time of day. Grant Morrison’s New 52 run with the title made me a fan…
Spoilers for These Savage Shores. Written by: Ram V Illustrated by: Sumit Kumar Colored by: Vittorio Astone Lettered by: Aditya Bidikar I aspire to be a writer, even a comic book writer hopefully. One of my goals is to write a great vampire story. It’s been a while since I talked…
Written by: Meghan Fitzmartin Art by: Riley Rossmo Coloring by: Lee Loughridge Lettering by: Tom Napolitano Editing by: Jessica Berbey, Arianna Turturro, Ben Abernathy I have a strange relationship with Tim Drake. I never liked him as Robin, he just never interested me when he wore the Robin mantle. But, I…
Written by: Leah Williams Art by: Carlos Gomez Coloring by: Bryan Valenza Lettering by: VC’s Travis Lanham Editing by: Lauren Amaro, Jordan D. White X-Terminators has barely any scenes with my favorite superhero of all time, and yet it feels absolutely perfect. It’s one part raunchy comedy and another part grindhouse…
Written by: Ethan Sacks Art by: Luigi Zagaria Coloring by: Antonio Fabela Lettering by: VC’s Joe Sabino Editing by: Tom Groneman, Nick Lowe While it’s obvious this book was supposed to come out with the game, it does not base its story around the same premise. It spins out of Strange…
Written by: Joshua Williamson Art by: Daniel Sampere Coloring by: Alejandro Sanchez Lettering by: Tom Napolitano Editing by: Chris Rosa, Paul Kaminski This is the first issue of this event with the name change. Changing it to Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths is a cash-in, but hardly the worst one. If…
Written by: Jim Zub Art by: Sean Izaakse Coloring by: Java Tartaglia Lettering by: VC’s Joe Sabino Editing by: Martin Biro, Annalise Bissa, Tom Brevoort There’s something to be said about how Marvel will give so many B, C, and D-list heroes their own books. Thunderbolts #1 is chockful of characters…
Written by: Ram V Art by: Rafael Albuquerque Coloring by: Dave Stewart Lettering by: Ariana Maher Editing by: Arianna Turturro, Jessica Chen, Ben Abernathy Ram V is one of my favorite writers in comic books right now after his work on These Savage Shores. Rafael Albuquerque is an all-star artist who…
Written by: Kieron Gillen Art by: Guiu Vilanova Coloring by: Dijjo Lima Lettering by: VC’s Travis Lanham Editing by: Martin Biro, Annalise Bissa, Tom Brevoort It’s always nice to see that a crossover is more of a team-up than a battle between heroes. The covers may say one thing, but the…
Written by: Tom Taylor Penciling by: Trevor Hairsine Inking by: Andy Lanning Coloring by: Rain Beredo Lettering by: Saida Temofonte Editing by: Ben Abernathy DCeased: War of the Undead Gods picks up right where the last DCeased book left off. Some of our lost heroes are back, reunited with their loved…
Written by: Kenny Porter Art by: Baldemar Rivas Coloring by: Mike Spicer Lettering by: Tom Napolitano Edited by: Dave Wielgos, Ben Abernathy You can tell that the creative team loves mecha-anime, especially the art half of the team, Rivas and Spicer. They expertly capture the size and movement of mechs and…
Written by: Kieron Gillen Art by: Valerio Schiti Coloring by: Marte Garcia Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles Editing by: Martin Biro, Annalise Bissa, Tom Brevoort I haven’t read a Marvel event in a while that wasn’t strictly about the X-Men. I haven’t kept up with the Avengers (refuse to) nor the…
Written by: Gerry Duggan Art by: Kris Anka, Russell Dauterman, Matteo Lolli, CF Villa Coloring by: Rain Beredo, Frank Martin, Matt Willa, Matthew Wilson Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit Design by: Tom Muller, Jay Bowen Editing by: Lauren Amaro, Jordan D.

Written by: Torunn Gronbekk Art by: Michael Dowling Coloring by: Jesus Aburtov Lettering by: VC’s Joe Sabino Editing by: Michelle Marchese, Wil Moss I didn’t get the chance to review the first issue of Jane Foster & the Mighty Thor, so I wasn’t going to miss the second issue. It’s obvious…
Written by: Chip Zdarsky Art by: Jorge Jimenez Coloring by: Tomeu Morey Lettering by: Clayton Cowles Editing by: Dave Wielgosz, Ben Abernathy Chip Zdarksy’s Daredevil has been the highlight of Marvel comics for the last two years, even over the majority of X-Books. Having him write the main Bat-title feels like…
Written by: Tom King Art by: Clay Mann Coloring by: Tomeu Morey Lettering by: Clayton Cowles Editing by: Brittany Holsherr, Jillian Grant, Chris Conroy The finale to Batman/Catwoman has been long in the making. It was over a year ago that this series first started, aiming to serve as the true…
Written by: Christopher Priest Art by: Rafa Sandoval Coloring by: Matt Herms Lettering by: Willie Schubert Editing by: Chris Rosa, Paul Kaminski Christopher Priest is a writer who knows how to make the reader uncomfortable. Reading his run on Deathstroke often felt like swimming through mud, but that didn’t change how…
Written by: Gerry Duggan Art by: Pepe Larraz Coloring by: Marte Gracia Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles Editing by: Tom Muller, Jay Bowen X-Men #12 feels like the end of a run before a relaunch. It culminates at the end of this X-Men roster and the biggest upset to the status…
Written by: Daniel Warren Johnson Art by: Daniel Warren Johnson Coloring by: Mike Spicer Lettering by: Rus Wooton There aren’t many art styles like Daniel Warren Johnson’s, and there aren’t many stories like Daniel Warren Johnson’s. When you get a comic that’s written and drawn by the same person, there’s always…
Written by: Christos Gage, Donald Mustard Penciling by: Sergio Davila Inking by: Sean Parsons Coloring by: Edgar Delgado Lettering by: VC’s Joe Caramagna Editing by: Kaitlyn Lindtvedt, Alanna Smith, I just want to say, it’s wild that this comic claims that Fortnite’s universe is the place where “every reality ever” comes…
Written by: G. Willow Wilson Art by: Marcio Takara Coloring by: Arif Prianto Lettering by: Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou Editing by: Jessica Berby, Arianna Turturro, Ben Abernathy DC is constantly trying to push Poison Ivy in a new direction different from the last. This is no different. Like many who have written Poison…

Written by: Si Spurrier Art by: Jan Bazaldua Coloring by: Federico Blee Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles Editing by: Anita Okoye, Sarah Brunstad Legion of X follows up one of the best arcs in this era of X-Men with the Onslaught Revelation. That means I’ve had high hopes for it. So…

Written by: Greg Pak Pencilinig by: Khoi Pham Inking by: Scott Hanna Coloring by: Chris Sotomayor Lettering by: Janice Chiang Editing by: Andrea Shea, Jim Chadwick You would be forgiven for thinking this was a new superhero. I made this mistake, not realizing that Duo is actually an old Milestone hero.…
Written by: Bill Willingham Penciling by: Mark Buckingham Inking by: Steve Leialoha Coloring by: Lee Loughridge Lettering by: Todd Klein Editing by: Mark Doyle Fables is my all time favorite comic series. I nearly read the whole thing back in high school and may go back and reread it for a…
Written by: Steve Orlando, Nyla Rose Penciling by: David Cutler Inking by: Jose Marzan Jr, Roberto Poggi Coloring by: Irma Kniivila Lettering by: VC’s Travis Lanham John Proudstar was before my time. By the time I was born, he was long dead in the universe and out. The magical thing about…
Written by: Joshua Williamson Art by: Jim Cheung Coloring by: Jay David Ramos Lettering by: Tom Napolitano For Free Comic Book Day my local comic shop had Dark Crisis #0 to give me, and was kind enough to give me this copy early. I believe digital versions have been available, but…
Written by: Tini Howard Art by: Bob Quinn Coloring by: Erick Arciniega Lettering by: VC’s Ariana Maher Excalibur was one of my favorites of Dawn of X, and I’m glad it’s getting a continuation. It already had arguably the best roster among the X-teams, and Knights of X continues that legacy.…
Written by: Joshua Williamson Art by: Rafa Sandoval Inking by: Jordi Tarragona Coloring by: Matt Herms Lettering by: Josh Reed Will the Death of the Justice League, a collection of some of the best superheroes to grace comics, open room for new superheroes to step up? Yes. Will it lead to…
The Marvel Cinematic Universe started in 2008 with the release of Iron Man 1. We had Marvel movies before that with the Raimi Spider-Man Trilogy, the Blade duology, and a series of X-Men movies. But the MCU was the first time anyone had attempted to replicate what only the comic books…
Written by: Steve Orlando Art by: Eleonora Carlini Coloring by: Matt Milla Lettering by: VC’s Ariana Maher Marauders #1 is the only one of the original Dawn of X titles outside of the main X-Men title to completely reboot. They have a new #1, a new creative team, and new roster…
Written by: Al Ewing Art by: Stefano Caselli Coloring by: Federico Blee Lettering by: VC’s Ariana Maher I spent the whole day waiting to read X-Men Red, checking Twitter. What I found on Twitter were people ranting and raving about how good this issue was. They weren’t kidding. X-Men Red positions…
Written by: Kieron Gillen Art by: Lucas Werneck Coloring by: David Curiel Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles The Immortal X-Men is about to be a classic in the making. This comic feels like the original X-Men #1 by Jonathan Hickman. The events of this issue feel momentous, they feel important, and…
