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 […]
Written by: James Tynion IV, Matthew Rosenberg Art by: Otto Schmidt, Simone Di Meo, Daniele Di Nicuolo, Rex Lokus Coloring by: Otto Schmidt, Simone Di Meo, Daniele Di Nicuolo, Rex Lokus Lettering by: Tom Napolitano This is it, this is the vampire book I didn’t know I’ve always wanted. DC vs […]
Written by: Scott Snyder Penciling by: Greg Capullo Inking by: Jonathan Glapion Coloring by: Dave McCaig Lettering by: Tom Napolitano So this first issue collects the first three chapters of We Have Demons #1. For that reason, I can’t quite give my opinion on how it reads one chapter at a […]
Written by: Benjamin Percy Art by: Federico Vicentini Coloring by: Dijjo Lima Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit X Lives of Wolverine #5 ended the time-traveling Wolverine story, but X Deaths of Wolverine #5 ends the event. This whole series was released and formatted to invoke House of X and Powers of […]
Written by: Mark Waid Art by: Dan Mora Coloring by: Tamra Bonvillain Lettering by: Aditya Bidikar Batman/Superman: World’s Finest is interesting for several reasons. This marks the return of Mark Waid, a historic writer in the comic industry, especially at DC for one-off stories like Kingdom Come, and award-worthy runs like […]
Written by: Benjamin Percy Art by: Joshua Cassara Coloring by: Frank Martin Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit X Lives of Wolverine #5, the final part of the “Lives” half of this event is the best of the five issues. Wolverine is a lot like Batman in that he’s overexposed, with more […]
Written by: James McKelvie Art by: Marika Cresta Coloring by: Erick Arciniega Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles I’ve never been a big Captain America fan. Any superhero who purposely ties themselves to a country rather than fans doing that themselves (a la Superman) generally rub me the wrong way. No country […]

Sorry for […]
Written by: Joshua Williamson, Dennis Culver Art by: Andrei Bressan, Jesus Merino Coloring by: Hi-fi Lettering by: Tom Napolitano Okay, I’m a huge Darkseid fan, but I have to admit, I did not know he had a wife. I also gotta admit, I don’t like the idea of Darkseid having human […]
Written by: Gerry Duggan Art by: Phil Noto Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles I didn’t review the first issue of Devil’s Reign: X-Men, so I do want to say that while it was enjoyable, it felt low energy for the stakes it had. This issue is far better and balances the […]
Written by: Tom King Art by: David Marquez Coloring by: Alejandro Sanchez Lettering by: Clayton Cowles I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Tom King books usually go one of two ways. Some of his books are written better for trade, and then there are books you can’t help […]
Written by: Tom Taylor Art by: Iban Coello Coloring by: Brian Reber Lettering by: VC’s Joe Sabino I have to say one thing before anything else. Miles Morales in Dark Ages #5 has the same hairstyle as me, so he’s officially the best-looking dude around. Jokes aside, as much as I […]
Written by: Tim Sheridan Art by: Tom Derenick Coloring by: Alex Sinclair Lettering by: Rob Leigh I’ve been a pretty big fan of this series, especially the yearbook issue. I like the idea of having new heroes actively learning from characters like the Titans. In the beginning, this series had a […]
Created by: LoudMouse Crew – Stelios Pliatsikas, Thanos Kyratzis Disclaimer: The creators of DREAMLANDS: Lives and Epics did contact me to consider reading and reviewing it. They provided me a free link to the comic, but there was no other monetary payment or agreement that I’d review this book positively. I […]
Written by: Tom King Art by: Bilquis Evely Coloring by: Matthew Lopes Lettering by: Clayton Cowles Yeah, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is easily my second favorite story of all time. Supergirl has been one of my favorite superheroes for years since I first read the New 52 run. The idea of […]
Written by: Brandon Thomas Penciling by: Serg Acuna, Diego Olortegui Inking by: Serg Acuna, Wade Von Grawbadger Coloring by: Adriano Lucas Lettering by: Andworld Design I really enjoyed the first issue of Aquaman: The Becoming. Coming off the heals of Future State: Aquaman, it was a breath of fresh air for […]
Written by: Gerry Duggan Art by: Javier Pina Coloring by: Marte Gracia Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles X-Men #8 doubles down on the series strengths, but also some clear weaknesses. It’s focusing on Synch, giving character development to a character who deserves it. He has been made the main character, with […]
Written by: John Ridley Art by: Len Lashly Coloring by: Rex Lokus Lettering by: Tady Peteri I Am Batman #6 may be the most important issue of the series since the first one, even more so than Future State. Rather than have several Batmen in one city where they compete for […]
Written by: Tini Howard Art by: Francesco Mobili Coloring by: Jesus Aburtov Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles I like the mainline X-Men book, a lot. It’s one of my favorite comic books of the year so far. Right now though, I’m actually considering the possibility that the line-up in Secret X-Men […]
Written by: Dan Slott Art by: Carlos Pacheco, Rafael Fonteriz, Carlos Magno Coloring by: Guru-eFX Lettering by: VC’s Joe Caramagna Dan Slott is very hit or miss with me. I love his run on She-Hulk, and I’m happy to see things he set up there come back here. At the same […]
Written by: Victor LaValle Art by: Leonard Kirk Coloring by: Rain Beredo Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit Sabretooth is a villain through and through. He’s a petty, small, insignificant animal, who’s up there with the Joker with just how terrible a person he is. Hell, not only has he murdered people […]
Written by: Tom King Art by: John Paul Leon, Bernard Chang, Shawn Crystal, Mitch Gerads Coloring by: Dave Stewart Lettering by: Clayton Cowles This Batman/Catwoman series has been all over the place for me, and this special kind of made it worse. Where it started out pretty good, with a premise […]
Written by: Benjamin Percy Art by: Federico Vicentini Coloring by: Dijjo Lima, Frank Martin Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit So, I don’t think a second issue has made me eat my words as fast as X Deaths of Wolverine has. Where X Lives of Wolverine felt like just another Wolverine-focused event, […]
Written by: Rainbow Rowell Art by: Roge Antonio Coloring by: Rico Renzi Lettering by: VC’s Joe Caramagna Do you like John Bryne’s classic run on She-Hulk? Did you not enjoy Jennifer Walters’ time as the Hulk? Well, then this series kind of feels like it’s for you, but not. This new […]
Written by: Benjamin Percy Art by: Joshua Cassara Coloring by: Frank Martin Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit X Lives of Wolverine is a book that is going to suffer from the way it’s being sold more than the content itself. This book is the only X-book furthering the X-story for several […]
Last year I put out a video ranking my favorite comic books of 2020, and now I’m doing it again for 2021. Here’s hoping it isn’t irrelevant by the time it comes out like it was last year. That was my bad. But this year, I feel as if I’ve really […]
Written by: Gerry Duggan Art by: Matteo Lolli, Phil Noto Coloring by: Rain Beredo, Phil Noto Lettering by: VC’s Cory Petit Marauders was my favorite X-Men book at the beginning of Dawn of X. Among the original 6 titles, it still remains my favorite. Marauders #27 is an end to that […]
Written by: Chip Zdarsky Art by: Rafael De Latorre Coloring by: Federico Blee Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles Daredevil: Woman Without Fear is interesting for a couple of reasons. Its happening during Devil’s Reign, an event series that spun out of the Daredevil comic where she was the main character. Then […]
Written by: Tini Howard Art by: Ig Guara Coloring by: Dijjo Lima Lettering by: VC’s Joe Caramagna Marvel, why the hell doesn’t Elsa Bloodstone have her own ongoing yet? I’ve loved Elsa Bloodstone since I first found her in the Secret Wars: Marvel Zombies book. Yeah, deep cut I know, but […]
Written by: Gerry Duggan Art by: Pepe Larraz Coloring by: Marte Garcia Lettering by: VC’s Clayton Cowles I like the idea of Captain Krakoa, a lot. I think Cyclops becoming Captain Krakoa is an excellent choice. Not because he’s like Captain America in character, but because he’s like him in his […]
Written by: Jonathan Hickman Art by: Valerio Schiti, Stefano Caselli Coloring by: David Curiel Lettering by: VC’s Joe Sabino I absolutely love the Krakoa Era of X-Men, I’m hardpressed to say there’s a single issue I’ve hated. At the same time, I can’t say there has been anything as amazing as […]
Written by: James Tynion IV, Matthew Rosenberg Art by: Otto Schmidt Coloring by: Otto Schmidt Lettering by: Tom Napolitano I just want to say that Evil Hal Jordan is the best Hal Jordon. The more important question is, is Vampire Hal better than Parallax? DC vs Vampires #3 continues to make […]
