Buffy is still Slayer-in-absentia in issue #10 (Bellaire, Lopez), so the focus falls on Robin and Rose instead. Unfortunately, neither character has been developed enough to carry the narrative weight of the issue…
DetailsAnnihilation Scourge: Nova #1
Annihilation Scourge: Nova #1 (Rosenberg, Roberson) does an excellent job adding some true human elements to an otherwise outlandish yet fun story.
DetailsNomen Omen #3
Nomen Omen #3 (Bucci, Camagni, Amelia) lays the old world mythology on heavy in this intriguing journey into faeryland.
DetailsDeathstroke #50
Deathstroke #50 (Priest, Pasarin, Pagulayan) brings this daring and underrated series to logical conclusion despite a number of roadblocks along the way.
DetailsYoung Justice #11
Young Justice #11 (Bendis, Timms, Eltaeb): John Timms’ art is fantastic and stylish, but I just couldn’t find enough to care about in this issue.
DetailsThe Magnificent Ms. Marvel #10
With some stellar art and an intriguing twist at the end, The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #10 (Ahmed, Jung, Vlasco, Herring) manages to prove worthwhile despite mostly acting as a filler to set up what’s coming.
DetailsDr. Doom #3
Dr. Doom #3 (Cartwelll, Larroca) deals with the aftermath of Dr. Doom’s death. Will the world be a happier place or dive into chaos and destroy itself? The answer might surprise you.
DetailsGhost-Spider #4
Ghost-Spider #4 (McGuire, Miyazawa, Kampe, Herring): Gwen may have been stood up by two friends, the Jackal is stalking her, but at least band practice went well!
DetailsThe Amazing Mary Jane #2
The Amazing Mary Jane #2 (Williams, Lopez, Gomez) is an enjoyable story with well-done art, but as Mary Jane’s first miniseries, it feels like it could be Mysterio’s first mini instead.
DetailsGoosebumps: The Horrors of the Witch House
Despite using the correct formula for a successful story, Goosebumps: Horrors of the Witch House (Tipton, Smith, Fenoglio, Pinto, Miesner) falls flat, having none of Stine’s spooky magic.
DetailsDetective comics #1016
Detective Comics #1016 (Tomasi, Mahnke, Kirkam, Baron, Leigh): The art was fantastic and we finally have an ending for one of the most tragic sagas in Batman history, even if it wasn’t what everyone was expecting.
DetailsSavage Avengers #8
Savage Avengers #8 (Duggan, Zircher, Tartaglia) is one of the most fun comics of the series, and if you’ve been following since the first issue, you know what kind of bar has been set. Go check this one out!
