For Molly #2
For Molly (Cheng, Sawyer) is proving itself an interesting story with a mythos that captivates and captures the reader. Going now in their Kickstarter for issue #3, this second one provides us worldbuilding and designs filled with expressiveness, emotion, and strength.
DetailsSentient
You don’t have to be a sci-fi buff to get into Sentient (Lemire, Walta), as it’s a human drama above all else. The art sings and the central question at it’s heart – “Can machines learn to be human?” – will have you pondering this series for days after finishing.
DetailsBatman and Robin Annual #1
Batman and Robin Annual #1 (Tomasi, Syaf, Cifuentes, Kalisz, Mangual) is the type of comic that pulls you in with heartfelt relatability and holds on until the very last panel, making it impossible to not put the book down with a smile. For those who may still be looking for the heart behind Damian Wayne as Robin, this is a great place to start!
DetailsPlanetary #8
Planetary #8 (Ellis, Cassaday, DePuy, Cline) hits the ground running with yet another sci-fi mystery with much larger implications for Jakita, Elijah and the Drummer. It’s grotesque and deeply compelling, but it also is frustratingly secretive in its intentions, leaving the reader with no choice but to dig into the next issue for more answers.
DetailsJudge Dredd Prog 2176
In this one-shot style story of Judge Dredd in prog 2176 (Niemand, Dyer, Nosenzo, Parkhouse) we find Dredd sorting through the remains of devastation long passed, both psychologically and physically, for a story that truly captures the impacts of this world and their ideals.
DetailsAstonishing X-Men (2004) #62-65
Astonishing X-Men (2004) #62-65 (Liu, Walta): Bobby Drake has always been a complicated case. Join Comic Watch today to travel to 2013 and take a look at a queer Bobby issue, 2 years before his coming out. It’s complicated, it’s confusing, it’s sometimes not so good, but what it ultimately tells us about storytelling and subtext is precious.
DetailsNinjak #17
Ninjak #17 (Kindt,Bernard, Rodrigues, Dalhouse, Arreola) is the kind of climax you wish all spy/action stories who measure up to. It neatly and expertly wraps up a huge chapter in both Roku and Ninjak’s lives while also planting small seeds that show promise of epic things to come.
DetailsBattle Angel Alita Deluxe Edition 1
Battle Angel Alita Deluxe Edition 1 (Kishiro) is the type of manga that transcends the oftentimes strict expectations of the medium with both an incredibly impressive aesthetic and deep character drama to back it up. There is a dedication to storytelling that is so evident on every page that even at this length, it’s impossible to put down until the very last panel.
DetailsYoung Avengers #2 (2005)
Young Avengers #2 (2005) (Heinberg, Cheung, Dell & Ponsor) Iron Lad reveals his secret identity and seeks guidance from the Avengers. Has Patriot given up on the team or will Hulkling and Asgardian convince him to stay? The daughter of Ant-Man makes some “large” demands to the Young Avengers!
DetailsLast 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.
DetailsBatman #497
Join Comic Watch this Sunday as we ask the all-important question, where were you when the Batman was broken?
