Event Horizon Dark Descent #1
is a great first issue to the cult sci-fi horror movie. Christian Ward’s story is a promising slow and tense build up. @tristans_bones’s art and Pip Martin’s coloring hints at body horror and hell. @IDWPublishing
DetailsThe Terminator
ties together many of the story elements from the previous nine issues. It’s not quite a neat little bow, but it is easily the most important issue yet. @DynamiteComics #Terminator
DetailsWild Animals #2
follows Neil’s utter confusion about how to search for the dirty cops who killed his father. @edbrisson builds up the crime story angle of the series. @andykuhn creates a lived in world for Neil to explore populated by expressive people. @madcavestudios

Enter now…the Age of Apocalypse! X-Men Alpha had the responsibility of launching a whole new universe that would last for four months. It’s an impressive piece of world building, both narratively and visually. #XMen #AoA #AgeofApocalypse #MarvelComics

You can’t start a weekly column about the Age of Apocalypse without revisiting Legion’s biggest screw up ever. Let’s all see Charles Xavier bite the dust one more time. #XMen #AoA #AgeofApocalypse #Legion #MarvelComics
DetailsGreen Lantern Corps #7
might be a more accessible entry to the new Green Lantern crossover than part 1. @spacekicker and @Moellennial marry just enough exposition with solid story development. Pasarin and Albert deliver solid art, and Prianto sets the tone with amazing coloring.
DetailsRogue Sun #29
wraps up the Noxious storyline (or does it?) while saying why Dylan got the sun stone in the first place. The exciting Massive Verse series continues with some major developments. @ImageComics @thatRyanParrott
DetailsSpace Ghost #1
brings back the all star team of @Peposed, Jonathan Lau, @adalhouse, and Taylor Esposito for the series’ second season. A new storyline kicks off in an issue to satisfy new and older readers alike! @DynamiteComics #SpaceGhost
DetailsSuperior Avengers #5
leans into what the series does best and advances multiple character arcs in surprising ways. Meanwhile the main plot delivers a big surprise that could breathe new life into it. @steve_foxe @marescaluca @KyleHotz
DetailsSecret Six #6
ends with the same strong character development that characterized the issues before. But this time, most of that development comes via punching. Maines, Segovia, and Beredo deliver a great final issue. #DCComics
DetailsCaptain America #2
features two Captain Americas with two very different points of view on how to handle things in Latveria. @Zdarsky isn’t afraid to examine hard topics. And @ValerioSchiti and Martin provide strong visuals. #CaptainAmerica #MarvelComics
DetailsOne World Under Doom #6
goes almost full intellectual exercise as @ryanqnorth, @RB_Silva, and @DavCuriel deliver a surprisingly exciting debate between Reed and Doom. A shocking revelation at the end ups the stakes, and there’s no denying this is the smartest event in many years.
