Dark Nights: Death Metal #2 (Snyder, Capullo, Glapion, Plascencia) is, quite simply, the head-bangingest, most joyously over-the-top epic solo of a comic we’ve all been waiting for in a summer bereft of big popcorn movie fun! DO NOT MISS THIS!
DetailsHawkman @25
Hawkman #25 (Venditti, Castiello, Miki, Cox) is a spectacular issue. One worth your time, money, and reading multiple times. Highly recommended.
DetailsAlienated #4
Alienated #4 (Spurrier, Wildgoose, & May) is a raw, intentional exploration of a hurt boy lashing out in a way he finally has the power to do. It is a story equal parts provocative and necessary in its reflection of reality.
DetailsWonder Woman #758 (Orlando, Lupacchino, McCarthy) is a textbook example on how to tell a fantastic, character-defining story about a given lead character. It’s a shame we won’t get anymore from this creative team, so enjoy this issue with everything you’ve got!
DetailsThe Green Lantern Season Two #5
Green Lantern Season Two #5 (Morrison, Sharp, Oliff, Orzechowski) continues the series’ impressive run, delivering a high-action issue illustrated in an excellent Kirby-influenced style.
DetailsBelle vs. The Black Knight One-Shot
The Belle vs. The Black Knight one-shot (Franchini, Forte, Ianniello, Manuel Rodriguez, Hathaway) is a comic that understands not to take itself too seriously and above all else, have fun.
DetailsThe Butcher of Paris #5
The Butcher of Paris #5 (Phillips, Kotz, Wordie, Peteri, Johnson) sees the trial of serial killer Marcel Petiot turn circus thanks to a terrifyingly familiar sort of national apathy.
DetailsStrange Academy #2
Strange Academy #2 (Young, Ramos, & Delgado) suffers from the delay between issues but holds on to the potential for greatness.
DetailsHarley Quinn Black + White + Red #3
The third chapter of the DC Digital First series Harley Quinn Black + White + Red (Ahmed, Rodriguez, Cowles) is a truly fun story with remarkably memorable artwork, examining the the imprint Harley has left on both fans and the greater DC Universe.
DetailsGhost Rider #7
Despite the arc becoming a bit cluttered with the inclusion of so many different narrative elements, Ghost Rider #7 (Brisson, Kuder, Keith, Caramagna) proves to be another fun entry in a dark, yet rewarding series hellbent on bringing back horror at Marvel.
DetailsAlienated #3
Alienated #3 (Spurrier, Wildgoose, & May) packed a solid punch worthy of making me flip back to the first page as soon as I was finished.
DetailsThe Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage #3
The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage #3 (Lemire, Cowan, Sienkiewicz, Sotomayor) is worth reading just from the names on the cover, but it continues to be a gritty mystery that holds its own. The Question is on the case, but right now there are more questions than answers, but they are coming.
