South African father, technology, sci-fi, fantasy nut and lifelong comic reader..... my love of costumed capers started very early after a chance encounter with a spinner full of comics in a local convenience store. I am a fan of all things Marvel, Dc, and Image including X-men, X-force, New Mutants, Teen Titans, Saga, Hellboy, Wayward, Gen13, Nightwing, Sandman and many more.
Psylocke #1
.@crashwong, @carratu_art, Sifuente-Sujo, Maher) is as perfectly balanced as Kwannon herself. A flawless combination of glorious eyepopping action and strong introspective character writing make this an absolute must read issue #1! #XMen #Psylocke
DetailsALIENS VS. AVENGERS #2
Aliens VS. Avengers #2 (Hickman, Ribic, Svocina, Petit) is another stellar installment by a creative team in perfect sync. Superb emotive character writing and eyepopping visuals continue to make this the Marvel comic that everyone should be reading!
DetailsX-MEN #6
Some of the best issues of #XMen through the ages are books where there isn’t a punch thrown against a villain, major explosions or in fact any real superhero action of any kind. This is one of them! @jedmackay @nethodiazz #FromtheAshes #MarvelComics
DetailsMEDUSA
MEDUSA (Parker,@TBonvillain, @TaylorEspo) is a brilliant, smart reimagining of the Medusa legend married with modern comic hero sensibility and brought to life in 80 pages of some of the most gorgeous art you will ever see! A must read! @DarkHorseComics
DetailsMystique #1

DetailsSUMMER SHADOWS #2

DetailsSentinels #1
(@AlexPaknadel, @justinmasonart, @toonfed, Lanham) is a superb and compelling start to a dark and dirty part of the From The Ashes era where monsters hunt monsters held on the leash of other monsters. #XMen #Sentinels #FromtheAshes #MarvelComics
DetailsWOLVERINE REVENGE #2
(Hickman, @GregCapullo, @TimTdog10000, Plascencia, Petit) is a masterclass in how to take a simple idea and make it a violent, engaging ride through masterful execution. It’s perfect #Wolverine by a faultless creative team. #XMen #MarvelComics
DetailsThe Magic Order 5 #1
(@mrmarkmillar, Buffagni, Niro, Robins) is a violent, mysterious, beautifully rendered setup with new terrors promising to put Cordelia Moonstone through several rings fire in the most dramatic chapter of the series yet! @DarkHorseComics

DetailsX-Men #3
(@jedmackay @RyanStegman @JPMayer_ @1JohnLivesay @martegracia) is the best issue so far. The slower pace allows characters to breathe, some situational exposition and shows the art team’s ability to convey emotional interaction! #XMen
