The Slasher’s Apprentice #1: Just Enough There, There
The Slasher’s Apprentice #1
kicks off what promises to be a solid slasher series. The first issue is fairly light, but it ends with a lot of potential. @MadCaveStudios
Details
Lost Fantasy #1: Fantasy Hunting
Lost Fantasy #1
offers a lot of potential for a new series that combines fantasy and reality. Casalguida’s art steals the show. @ImageComics
Details
Thunderbolts Doomstrike #3: Universal Ideas
Thunderbolts Doomstrike #3
is an uneven issue but takes a big step forward for the series by honing in on its basic thematic elements. It ends with renewed promise for future issues. #MarvelComics #Thunderbolts
Details
Red Hulk #3: Primal
Red Hulk #3
depicts the equal and opposite of Marvel’s big brains in @Benjamin_Percy’s visceral story about a soldier with a monster inside him. Further elevated by strong, detailed work from Geoff Shaw and @BryanValenza. #RedHulk #MarvelComics
Details
The Last Boy #2: Ego Driven
The Last Boy #2
continues the story of a perpetually young Peter Pan lost in a world that’s moving forward without him. @urbanbarbarian and Alessio Avallone deliver a fun take on a familiar fairy tale, turning it on its head. @boomstudios
Details
Arcana Royale #1: No There There
Arcana Royale #1
will probably appeal to fervent fans of supernatural horror. The art adds to the fun in that regard. But a lack of narrative detail hold it back from broad appeal.
Details
One World Under Doom #3: It’s Getting Predictable
One World Under Doom #3
strays from the qualities that made the series first two issues effective and stumbles into predictability. Visually interesting, the story is surprisingly shallow. #Doom #MarvelComics
Details
Absolute Martian Manhunter #2: Streams of Colorful Consciousness
Absolute Martian Manhunter #2
continues to showcase the power of the comic book medium with stunning art and color from @javiercaster. @DenizCamp’s chaotic and intriguing dialogue makes it a narrative page-turner as well. Skipping this series is skipping something special.
Details
Buried Long, Long Ago #1: The True Horror Fairy Tale
Buried Long, Long Ago #1
turns an unsolved historical murder spree into a bloody monster story. @Ant_Cleveland and @AlexCormack4 begin the story of the Belle Gunness murders in a comic horror fans will love. @MadCaveStudios
