Exceedingly poor art further hampers an ill-conceived filler issue in Wonder Woman #754 (Orlando, Melnikov, Fajardo Jr). Suitable for completists only; all other comers would do well to save their money and time.
DetailsBANG! #2
BANG! #2 (Kindt, Torres) continues to deliver a non-stop thrill ride through the pulp archetypes of the late 20th century. This series is a must-read for fans of all types.
DetailsBatgirl #45
Batgirl #45 (Castellucci, Di Giandomenico, Bellaire, Andworld) is a book that just feels like it is a bit too by the numbers to truly succeed. There are some interesting elements, but hopefully everything is able to come together better in the following issues.
DetailsAlienated #2
Alienated #2 (Spurrier, Wildgoose, May) continues to weave an intriguing story framed in beautiful art that further piques interest for future issues.
DetailsNEW MUTANTS #9
New Mutants #9 (Brisson, Flaviano, Reis, Lopez, Muller, Lanham): as the kids take another impromptu trip more chaos is afoot.
DetailsLegion of Super-Heroes #5
Legion of Super-Heroes #5 (Bendis, Sook Godlewski, von Grawbadger, Bellaire) finally starts to snap the series’ narrative into focus, as the past and present collide in some particularly intriguing ways.
DetailsTransformers Galaxies #6
Transformers Galaxies #6 (Leth, Edenfield, Milne, Cruz, Wood, Lopez) remind us that these robots all have different personalities, and not only that but some of those personalities are actually really entertaining.
DetailsJustice League Dark #21
Justice League Dark #21 (V, Tynion IV, Martinez Bueno, Chung, Leigh) is a strong continuation that maintains a fast pace while bringing in unique visuals to push this exciting story forward. Fans of JLD, don’t miss this one.
DetailsRed Sonja & Vampirella Meet Betty & Veronica #10
Red Sonja & Vampirella Meet Betty & Veronica #10 (Chu, Sanapo, Mohan) is an effective hot-summer-desert mood issue, but also a slow and storybuilding lacking one. The art really helps get in the mood of Drakulon, and it leaves us hoping for more as we move forward.
DetailsNEW MUTANTS #8
New Mutants #8: (Brisson, Failla, Reis, Lopez, Muller, Lanham) when Krakoan girls go on a trip they always get more than they bargained for.
DetailsCrowded #12
Crowded #12 (Sebela, Stein, Brandt, Farrell, Rae) is a flawlessly executed finale of an exceptional second arc. It’s a mystery where everyone’s favorite queer rom-com near-future thriller is taking us, but it can’t arrive soon enough.
DetailsDeadpool #4
Deadpool #4 (Thompson, Bachalo, Faucher, Curiel Sabino) brings plenty of uniquely stylized action, but it’s also focused on an actual emotional goal for Wade Wilson, which is something you just don’t see all that often. It’s not perfect, but it’s a great look for the character.
