Bloodshot #1
Join Comic Watch this Sunday morning as we look back at Bloodshot #1 ( Sweirczynski, Garcia, Lozzi, Gaudiano, Hannin, Steen), a truly remarkable issue that helped inspire the exciting new Bloodshot live-action film!
DetailsValkyrie: Jane Foster #8
Valkyrie Jane Foster #8 (Aaron, Grønbekk, CAFU, & Aburtov) delivers an adrenaline filled launch to the next arc in Valkyries tale.
DetailsSpider-Man Noir #1
Spider-Man Noir #1: Margaret Stohl stays true to its characters and sets up an effectively mysterious tone and story, with Juan Ferreyra’s art providing it with a rainy and jazzy visual soundtrack. With some of the greatest themes in Spider-Man present (like his need to do everything in his hands to help others), and some really sweet character interactions, the book promises a story that we’re eager to see unfold.
DetailsPunisher: Soviet Part 4 – A Girl With a Heart as Big as the Sky
Punisher: Soviet #4 (Ennis, Burrows, Ortego, Woodard) is a pretty downbeat affair, with huge swaths of exposition buttressed by compulsory action sequences. The art is flat and the writing seems to just be going through the motions. Everyone involved is better than this!
DetailsPeter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham #3
Peter Porker, Spider-Ham #3 (Wells, Robson, Arciniega) gives us a great example of why “funny animal books” were such a big part of early comic book history.
DetailsRed Sonja #14
My only gripe about this comic is that it ended and I cant wait to add Red Sonja #14 (Russell, Q, Kelly, Otsmane-Elhaou) to my collection!
DetailsJustice League #42
Justice League #42 (Venditti, Lopresti) are producing a consistently classic Justice League story that is fun but feels like it lacks depth.
DetailsThe Amazing Mary Jane #5
The Amazing Mary Jane #5 (Williams, Gomez, & Lopez) finds its biggest strength in its difference from general Marvel fare. But when it turns towards action, the charm starts to fade.
DetailsBatman Vs. Ra’s Al Ghul #4
Batman Vs. Ra’s Al Ghul #4 (Adams, Robins) is the best issue since #1, and by tying together some of the threads, it improves the story featured in the two issues that preceded it.
DetailsWonder Woman #752 (Orlando, Raynor, Fajardo Jr.) attempts to have some lofty things to say about Wonder Woman’s moral code in combat, but winds up being an underwhelming outing overall.
DetailsStar #2
There is a lot in Star #2 (Thompson, Pina, Andrade, Arburtov) that is really well executed from the intense plotting to the stunning visuals, but the most intriguing aspect is just how much the issue pulls the reader in and makes them care for Ripley’s dire situation.
DetailsBatman #90
Batman #90 (Tynion, Jimenez) takes a look into the origins of The Designer and their link to the current crimes occuring in Gotham.
