Batman & More Comic Book Reviews for 5/5

This week wasn’t the best week, but also not the worst. It feels like I’m drawn to the same books week after week… after week. Guess what books I loved this week? Batman and X-Men, no surprise.  Guess what disappointed me? Pretty much everything else from DC. DC is starting to feel like a one-trick […]

BRZRKR & More Comic Book Reviews for 4/28

DC is here to redeem themselves after some poor showings these last two weeks. It’s the perfect time too, because there’s only one Marvel release on my pull list. New Mutants is great, but it’s nice to see DC do pretty good for the most part after some lackluster title releases. That isn’t say DC […]

House of M: A Past Best Forgotten

Spoilers for House of M, written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by Olivier Coipel. House of M is a story that has defined the X-Men since before I started avidly reading comics. I’ve always loved the X-Men but I didn’t start reading comics until DC’s New 52 reboot. I even didn’t start reading Marvel […]

S.W.O.R.D. & Comic Book Reviews for 4/21

This week, Marvel with SWORD contends for the best singular issue of the year, while half the week falls flat. I only picked up one DC book today, Justice League, and the rest were X-Men.  The highs of Marvel with SWORD and Way of X were really high, and the lows of Justice League and […]

Guardians of the Galaxy & Comic Book Reviews for 4/14

Comics this week were good. Between a landmark issue for Guardians of the Galaxy, a new Batman series by Tom Taylor, plus more good ole X-Men, times are good. Not saying that every comic I picked up this week landed, but more often than not, they did. Guardians of the Galaxy #13, written by Al […]

Boom’s Magic the Gathering #1 Thoughts

I am a casual Magic the Gathering fan, *I say as I look at hundreds of dollars worth of cards*. I used to be really into the game for a hot minute. Wizards of the Coast had me entranced by the cool cards and the flavor text, I’m a simple lad. Plus, it gave me […]

Batman/Catwoman: Thoughts So Far

Spoilers for Batman/Catwoman #1-4 Now, I’ll be honest, I’ve never been too much of a Catwoman fan. I don’t there’s anything particularly wrong with her character, she just doesn’t appeal to me. The relationship between Batman and Catwoman makes it so one of them has to give up a part of their character for them […]

Midnight Western Theatre: The Next Great Paranormal Western

If you never heard of Midnight Western Theatre, don’t sweat it, I don’t blame you. I picked it up randomly at the comic book store this week when my pull was strangely small. Then found myself looking at this cover, with a vampire and a woman with black and white hair both in wild west […]

Red Sonja: An Achievement in Comic Art

Spoilers for Red Sonja: The Ballad of the Red Goddess. “The more we have the more death will take from us.” This is a quote said by the Adversary from the Red Sonja short story, The Ballad of the Red Goddess, written by Roy Thomas, but more importantly, illustrated in a collaboration by Esteban Maroto […]

She-Hulk by Dan Slott, A Sensational Series

Spoilers for Dan Slott’s entire She-Hulk run. So She-Hulk has always been a character I liked for her appearances in the Fantastic Four and Incredible Hulk cartoons. She was kind of like the spunky alternative to the Hulk. As anyone knows, She-Hulk is known for being sexy. Since John Bryne got his hands on the […]
