X-Force #5

Every time-travel story requires a flashback or two to flesh out the narrative. This flashback was set two-thousand years in the future, but despite such timey-wimey shenanigans the story was wonderfully clear. This was a good tale, told with sensitivity, and augmented by some lovely gory art. It has everything you’d want in an X-Force book — and it’s an excellent jumping-on place for new readers.

Livewire#4: Recharged

Livewire #4

If one needed a solid foundation to step foot into the Valiant universe Vita Ayala just handed you four issues perfect for just that. Something intriguing without being overwhelming and familiar to older fans like myself without becoming stale. Besides when’s the last time we got handed a strong independent black woman who didn’t need no man in her own book that wasn’t Storm? Bottom line Livewire is a solid series that already shows great promise and the potential to become just as synonymous with the name “Valiant” as Ninjak, Bloodshot or X-O Manowar.
