Mark Millar is one of the most entertaining writers around. His work in the Ultimate Universe is always a treat. His Ultimate Comics Avengers titles were awesome, and I’m only now reading through his initial run of The Ultimates. This particular issue I found to be an absolute riot. #spoilers Hulk… well… So in theContinue reading “The Ultimates #5”

Point of Origin is turning into a classic, if I can be so bold as to hype it up. I’m no Fantastic Four expert/purist. I’ve only been following them faithfully for Dan Slott’s run and some of the early Stan Lee stories, so as a fan my opinion might be considered in its adolescence, butContinue reading “Fantastic Four #15 & #16”

I managed to cut down the back log on my pull. This Annual escaped my reading in the midst of all the City of Bane and Mrs. Freeze hoopla in the flanking Bat-tales, and I must say this lone book really tops both stories quite effortlessly. Best Batman book of 2019? Possibly so… #spoilers It’s a simple enoughContinue reading “Batman Annual #4”

#spoilers I decided to jump back on the Avengers wagon. I’ve been enjoying catching up through Marvel Unlimited and seeing as how this was the start of a new arc it seemed like a good jumping-on point. For those who haven’t been following this current run, well, you ought to. It’s probably the funnest andContinue reading “Avengers #27”

#spoilers I’m probably one of the few people on the planet that absolutely loves it when JRJR shows up to illustrate a random DC book. To say nothing of Superman Year One or his recent Batman contributions, what he brought to this issue was a breath of fresh air after all the Red Cloud hubbub in recent issues. EvenContinue reading “Action Comics #1017”

#spoilers So we finally made it. After decades of Victor Fries pining over his lovecicle, Nora is finally up and at ’em, and she’s not as settling as we might expect. She’s full-blown evil, working alongside her husband in a deranged marriage of villainy. I like it. It’s unexpected and different from the other formsContinue reading “Detective Comics #1015”

#spoilers This event had a lot of promise, but it lacked… I was gonna say SEVERELY, but no, it only lacked a bit. This final installment really just felt like a cash cow, brutally so. What happens? Venom and Carnage fight. Venom wins. The good guys win. Oh! Wait! The big bad symbiote god demonContinue reading “Absolute Carnage #5”

I like seeing the reprints that both Marvel and DC have been putting out of late. I couldn’t resist grabbing this one when I saw it. #spoilers This book is pretty hardcore. Halfway through I scanned the cover again to find that comics code stamp. Seems legit enough. Not only is this book on theContinue reading “Green Lantern #85 … Reprint!”

#spoilers Tom King has got to be one of the wordiest writers in the business right now. I swear every time it’s like I have to buckle down for some heavy reading. To be clear, this stuff is good, but far from what you expect of a typical Batman book… certainly not the kind forContinue reading “Batman #83”

This one’s been a long time coming. I’ve been wanting to get a little more Green Lantern in my life for a while, particularly Kyle Rayner for the odd time he’s popped up in my reads, but I’d heard nothing but good about this book so I gave it a go. #spoilers The story hereContinue reading “Green Lantern: Rebirth”
