Excalibur #5: Dead Man’s Bones

X-Men #4: Meat and Two Veg
X-Men #4
X-Men #4 (Hickman, Yu, Alanguilan, Gho): Dinner is served! Your main courses are fine art, an excellent plot, and a heaping side-order of unexamined misogyny.

Wonder Woman : Dead Earth #1: Though Much Was Taken, Much Abides
Wonder Woman : Dead Earth #1
Wonder Woman : Dead Earth #1 (Johnson, Spicer, Wooton): This is a brutal, beautiful story which strips Wonder Woman down to the bones of the myth — then polishes those ruins until they absolutely glow.
Details
Excalibur #4: The Penalties of Dragonfire
Excalibur #4
Excalibur #4 (Howard, To, Arciniega): The energy in this story is really ramping up in a satisfying way. If you enjoy druids and dragons, this book is well worth the cost.

X-Men #3: The Art of Horticulture, or Why No One Should Mess With Little Old Ladies
X-Men #3
X-Men #3 (Hickman, Yu) This issue is SUCH a dramatic improvement from the first two that it might have sprung from another mind. Trust me. You’re going to want to pick this one up.

Excalibur #2: Druids in the Woods
Excalibur #2
Vibrant colors and a dark, beautifully fantastic tone to Excalibur #2 (Howard, To), combine into a story that, despite its (many) flaws, is shaping into something very special indeed.

X-Men #2: When Two Become One
X-Men #2
X-Men #2 (Hickman, Yu, Alanguilan) is compelling, playing with high stakes and complex ideas, all of which will influence the entire Dawn launch, however it’s let down by less than stellar characterizations and mid-range art.
Details
DCeased #6: The Dying of the Light
DCeased #6
A miniseries about a zombie-like apocalypse has absolutely no business being this beautiful, touching, or straight-up fun. ‘DCeased #6’ (Taylor, Hairsine, Edwards, Gaurdiano, Beredo) proved a fine conclusion to a wonderful event. Do pick it up.
Details
Batman Annual #4: Time After Time
Batman Annual #4
Beautiful art is forced to work in concert with a mediocre script in Batman Annual #4 (King, Fornes, Norton, Steward, Cowles).
Details
