Birds of Prey: Sirens of Justice #1
Birds of Prey: Sirens of Justice #1 (Simone, Miranda, Kalisz, Lanham) leans heavily on great characterizations for a story that knows how to have a good time, but lacks the impact necessary to elevate the series beyond casual fun.
DetailsGI Joe #6
GI Joe #6 (Allor, Evenhuis, Peer, Uyetake) will simply put, surprise the $@^# out of ou.
DetailsSwamp Thing: New Roots #6
This is a series that goes right to the heart of what Swamp Thing stands for, and while the story can feel predictable, rest assured the end we find in Swamp Thing: New Roots #6 (Russell, Santucci, Kalisz, Sharpe) is something you won’t see coming. It’s a wonderful twist that will have you thinking about this book long after reading it.
DetailsBirds of Prey
Do yourself a favor and just skip Birds of Prey (Azzarello, Lupacchino). A very pretty book with no imagination and a high price tag.
DetailsIvar, Timewalker #1-4
Originality meets hilarious sci-fi filled action in a story that questions not just time itself, but also your very own place in history! There is plenty of humor, but there is also tragedy, discovery, disappointment, and the hope for something greater that all help to give Ivar, Timewalker #1-4 (Van Lente, Henry, Reber, Sharpe) a sense of uniqueness.
DetailsTeen Titans #41 (Glass, Thompson, Pansica, Ferreira, Maiolo) shows the writers of this book running on fumes, as “Djinn Wars” comes to a jaw-droppingly easy conclusion and the characters keep circling back to their inherent mistrust of Robin, who continues to be stuck in neutral right now as well, unable to admit his mistakes. A once-great book that has apparently run out of ideas, the art is stellar, but that’s about it.
DetailsJustice League Dark #22
Justice League Dark #22 (V, Tynion IV, Martinez Bueno, Nahuelpan, Fernandez, Chung, Leigh) finds strength in the exploration of humanity, the natural order of chaos and how we can influence it with our own story, getting right to the heart of what this entire series has been about. It’s a can’t miss issue for sure.
DetailsArchival Quality
Archival Quality (Weir, Steenz!) is the perfect example of writing and art complementing each other. A story about psychiatric survivorship gets wrapped in joyful, humane, relatable art in a way that perfectly represents that this book is gonna tell you a ghost story and a confessional story, and so much more. #CWPride
DetailsStar Trek: Year Five #11
Star Trek Year Five #11 (Lanzing, Kelly, Thompson, Keane, Kirchoff, Uyetake) will instantly take you back in time to 1968, as this issue reads and feels like an issue that was published fifty years ago. Great book!
DetailsAction Comics #1022
Action Comics #1022 (Bendis, Romita Jr., Miki, Anderson) continues to show how well Bendis and Romita Jr. work together. The dust is still settling since the previous issue, but a strange family reunion leaves Superman with more questions than answers.
