Shazam! (2018) #1 Review Let's start this out right away and say DC Comics has conveniently timed the newest Shazam! (2018) comic with the upcoming release of the Shazam! film starring Zachary Levi. Then, let's just say I know nothing about Shazam! and I could have sworn Shaq had a movie in the late 90's with the same name. I checked, that was Kazaam. Further, I guess Shazam … [Read more...]
Marvel Knights 2018 Review
Marvel Knights 2018 Review Marvel Knights is turning 20! I thought it was older but, to be fair I also don't remember much about the original Marvel Knights run either. Thankfully Marvel is re-releasing those classic titles in convenient trades for slowpoke chumps like myself. With nearly zero previous experience with the OG Knights, saying I'm a bit lost in Marvel Knights … [Read more...]
Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider in Spider-Geddon
Spider-Gwen: Ghost-Spider #1 Review Spider-Gwen deserves all the popularity she's received since her inception in Dan Slott's "Spider-Verse" back in 2015. She's stylish, she's cool, she's fresh, she's new, and Earth 65 is like a cyberpunk Toonami show. So seeing her story continue after Jason Latour and Robbi Rodriguez's run fills me with joy, even if she's now known as … [Read more...]
Justice League Odyssey… In Space!
Justice League Odyssey #1 Review Justice League of the Galaxy, I mean, Justice League Odyssey is finally here! After only a short delay DC's newest Justice League lead by Cyborg has hit store shelves. I think those of you who will read Justice League Odyssey will find the phrase "lead by Cyborg" both broad and debatable. Dark Nights: Metal as many of you know has torn apart … [Read more...]
Return of Wolverine #1, bub!
Return of Wolverine #1 review The Return of Wolverine! Yes! Wolvie is back! Or is he? Did he ever actually die? What the hell is going on? I admit the whole "Death of Wolverine" thing has been a bit foggy considering there's been some type of Wolverine since his "death" so we've never really experienced a Marvel without the Canuck. I'll be the first to admit I've loved Logan. … [Read more...]
The Punisher #229. World War Frank.
The Punisher #229 Review Don't let the new #1 fool you, The Punisher #229 is still following the story arc stemming way back from the Secret Empire. I wouldn't worry too much though, it's still a great jumping on point for the series. I would however, take the time to go back to The Punisher #218 and read the entire story containing a certain eye-patched S.H.I.E.L.D. director … [Read more...]
Fantastic Four #1 (2018). A Family Still Divided.
Fantastic Four #1 (2018) Review The Fantastic Four are back! Hahaha, you naive child, you don't actually think they're back together do you? So cute, just give me a second, I'm wiping the tears of laughter from my eyes. Marvel wouldn't give you the satisfaction of reuniting one of its flagship teams in the first issue since their hiatus back in Secret Wars. Instead in … [Read more...]
