Swamp 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.

The Vampire Dies in No Time, a comedy manga series from Itaru Bonnoki is set to receive an anime adaption!
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.
DetailsNinjak #10
Ninjak #10 (Kindt, Braithwaite, Ryp, Reber) is an excellent “fish out of water” story that doesn’t lean on a trope to find meat to the story. It’s also a fantastic issue for a new reader to learn more about the expansive Valiant universe without being overwhelmed.
DetailsFlash #753 (Williamson, Porter, Peterson, Hi-Fi) ups the stakes considerably, and doesn’t let off the throttle as it speeds toward “Flash Age’s” conclusion. Been let down by the current lackluster season of the CW’s Flash? The real deal in comics form is the antidote!
DetailsGeneration X (1994) #1
Join Comic Watch this Sunday as we take a look back at a brilliant first issue. Generation X #1 (Lobdell, Bachalo) was innovative and risky, but hits just the right spots: dark, profound and defined art and character design, accompanied by some of the most unforgettable characters and a horrific villain.
DetailsAstonishing X-Men (2004) #57-58
(Liu, Walta, Ruiz) Astounding and detailed art that rounds up an engaging story about the rejection of otherness and final recognition and closeness. We have a lot to admire, enjoy and learn from these two issues.
DetailsAquaman – Deep Dives (DC Digital)
Marginal through and through, Aquaman – Deep Dives #1 (Orlando, Sampere, Albarran, Lucas) doesn’t give new readers much to be interested in or vintage Aquaman fans anything all that new or interesting to care about. The art is strong, but everything else is serviceable at best and forgettable at worst.
DetailsPlanetary #5
Planetary #5 (Ellis, Cassaday, Depuy, Fuchs) pushes the boundaries of the comics medium, opening up the entire series to wonderful new depths with a deep dive into Doctor Axel Brass, the heroes of past and what it all means for Planetary.
