eating comics and drinking video games
Spider-Boy #1
While a little too wacky for its own good, SPIDER-BOY #1 is a fine if odd addition to the Spidey mythos, exuding a tone perfect for younger readers that meshes with a sense of 50s pulp-horror. @DanSlott @TyTempleton @erickarciniega @deezoid @JoeCaramagna
DetailsGiant Robot Hellboy #1
GIANT ROBOT HELLBOY is the beginning of an excellent comic; but its masterful art, coloring, and plotting broken into a monthly format doesn’t do the book enough justice. @DarkHorseComics #Hellboy @artofmignola @duncanfegredo
DetailsSonic Superstars has officially released, and its strong gameplay design paired with smooth performance makes for a game that’s satisfying and fun in almost everyday, say for its reliance on everything you’ve already seen of the series in the past.
DetailsThe Amazing Spider-Man #36
It’s more of the same from this run. Disjointed, forced storytelling collides with distractingly fun ideas and great art that successfully hides just how broken this character has become.
DetailsKill Your Darlings #2
Kill Your Darlings #2 moves the plot forward in a way that’s natural for the book’s pace yet still pleasantly surprising. @RobotJQ’s art truly elevates this issue from being more than just another chapter in this impressive series. @ImageComics
DetailsLocal Man #6
.@TonyFleecs & @HackinTimSeeley’s LOCAL MAN #6 marks a creative shift for the series, lathering its exploration of small-town America with a conspiratorial darkness that elevates the drama and tension of an all too excellent growing narrative. #ImageComics
DetailsX-Men #27
X-Men #27 is hugely character-driven but suffers from stagnant plot and flat art, even as the overarching #FallOfX narrative heats up. #MarvelComics #XMen (Duggan, Noto, Cowles)
DetailsDark X-Men #2
is written with such richness that it’s disappointing to see the passionate work of @steve_foxe & @scharf_jonas be constrained to a mini-series. Both beautiful and thrilling, there isn’t a #MarvelComics book quite like out right now. #XMen #FallOfX
DetailsThe Amazing Spider-Man #34
Amazing Spider-Man is at the strongest it has been in quite sometime, @zebwells & @patrick_gleason delivering a thematically rich and intense penultimate issue of Spider-Man’s Last Hunt. #SpiderMan #MarvelComics
DetailsLocal Man: Gold
LOCAL MAN: GOLD is a throwback that mixes both old school and modern Image characters, servicing readers of all ages with a simple tale about coping with change as Jack faces both his past and future self. @hackintimseeley @TonyFleecs @ImageComics
DetailsDichotomy #1
is a mixed, but conceptual strong debut issue that’s just a little too big for its britches.
DetailsBlack Panther #3
is a slow, plot-driven issue that sets to stage for something bolder and more exciting to come, but on its own is nothing more than simple groundwork. #MarvelComics #BlackPanther #WakandaForever
