Archival Quality
Archival Quality (Weir, Steenz!) is the perfect example of writing and art complementing each other.

Star Trek Year Five #11: Look What The Cat Dragged In
Star Trek: Year Five #11
Star Trek Year Five #11 (Lanzing, Kelly, Thompson, Keane, Kirchoff, Uyetake) will instantly take you back in time to 1968, as this issue reads and feels like an issue that was published fifty years ago. Great book!

MYTHOS: X-Men #1 (2006): Let’s Have a History Lesson
MYTHOS: X-Men #1
There is no getting around it, Mythos: X-Men #1 (Jenkins, Rivera, Caramagna) is frustratingly subpar. There just isn’t much to be gained aside from some enjoyable visuals that can’t be better substantiated by going back to the 1963 classic #1 issue this story is based on.

Green Lantern Season Two #3: Thunder On Wonder Mountain
Green Lantern Season Two #3
Green Lantern Season Two #3 (Morrison, Sharp, Orzechowski) continues the fun and adventurous one-and-done storytelling of the series so far, but Morrison’s script is brought down by so-so art by Liam Sharp, who handles art and colors this issue.
