Last Song #2
The deconstruction of the rock n roll myth, a story about a boy ate by his traumas and a tribute to our teenage bands. Black Mask Studios has got Last Song #2 (Interlandi, Cantirino) to prove this mixed formula is actually amazing.

DetailsJudge Dredd Progs 2174-2175
Judge Dredd progs 2174-2175 (Edginton, D’Israeli, Parkhouse) is one wild ride. It’s a wacky story that is sure to entertain and although it may not be your all-time favorite Dredd story, it’s an honestly fun time that doesn’t drag on or overstay its welcome by any means.
DetailsALPHA FLIGHT #2 (1983)
Alpha Flight #2 (1983), (John Byrne &Andy Yanchus) Team building is required, but is it enough to why Marrina has gone mad and is lashing out? What is causing her unexpected behavior?
DetailsSwamp Thing: New Roots #2
The creative team utilizes their firm understanding of the character for a heartfelt, albeit inconsequential, story in Swamp Thing: New Roots #2 (Russell, Santucci, Kalisz, Sharpe) that once again explores the outside perspective of the life and death cycle that Swamp Thing experiences. It’s not perfect, but it’s worth your time.

DetailsVarus #2: Retribution
In Varus #2: Retribution (McNeill, Rudy), the main conflict of vengeance versus self-healing is an engaging and brilliant one, with a great ending, but the execution nonetheless relies on tropes about mental illness that I hope we leave behind as we understand better what fantastical metaphors mean for real people.
DetailsEmpty Zone #5
It’s simply remarkable how Alexander and the rest of the team have found such an uncanny ability to blend horror and sci-fi with such a haunting tale of self-forgiveness, bringing a tragic yet somehow freeing conclusion to the first arc in Empty Zone #5 (Alexander, NCT, Jackson).
DetailsPlanetary #6
The historical alignment of Planetary #6 (Ellis, Cassaday, Depuy, Fuchs) helps to frame an interesting dynamic regarding the prominence of superheroes at the time and the never-ending search for greater power and influence, distilling the importance of the superhero genre into a sci-fi story with real relevance.
