Black Widow (2020) Review If you've been reading my reviews long enough, one I thank you but, two you'll know I love to be surprised by good books. I'm not saying cliffhangers or plot twists, I mean casually checking out books on the shelves and having one totally catch me off guard by just how good it is. Kelly Thompson's Black Widow (2020) is one of these gems. I love … [Read more...]
Falcon & Winter Soldier #1. Good Cop Bad Cop.
Falcon & Winter Soldier #1 Review As the buzz about the Falcon and Winter Soldier TV series continue to fly around the interwebs since comic con, Marvel quietly released a 5 part mini series. So quietly in fact that Cosmic Comics! got about 40 issues they didn't even order. So what do I get to do? Review it, that's what. Falcon & Winter soldier are the oil and water … [Read more...]
Star #1. Essence of Reality Stone
Star #1 Review The Avengers films end with a snap of the fingers and the destruction of the infinity stones. Those pesky rocks have been reeking havoc all over the Marvel Universe for years. They always seem to be getting lost or falling into the wrong hands, and in some rare cases few people become hosts. Ripley Ryan is one of these people. Who's Ripley Ryan you ask? Well, … [Read more...]
Newer New Mutants #1.
New Mutants # 1 (2019) Review How dare Marvel in all their X-Men loving glory continue the X-Men saga by dropping both New Mutants and X-Force in the same week. The audacity! How am I supposed to review all the newest mutant goodness let alone keep up with it? With all this good stuff, how am I supposed to review anything new from DC either? Sitting here trying to decide if … [Read more...]
Marauders #1. Hold Fast.
Marauders #1 Review I absolutely love surprising books. I like being excited about certain books then just being completely blown away by them. Marauders is one of those books. Hitting every House of X and Powers of X book week after week then starting up the newest X-Men book felt like a bit much. Then you see there's even more coming your way with Marauders, Excalibur, New … [Read more...]
Ghost Rider #1 (2019). Welcome Back, Johnny!
Ghost Rider #1 (2019) Review All work and no play make Johnny a dull boy. No better words could be used to describe what Johnny Blaze has been up to over these last few years. Johnny's Ghost Rider has been the King of Hell since his vengeful imprisonment of Mephisto some time ago. Those little hellions are not pleased and are trying to revolt, escaping into portals in their … [Read more...]
House of X. The House that Xavier Built.
House of X and Powers of X Review House of X and Powers of X are six part books staggering each other, each week. With this, it felt appropriate to review them both at once since they should be enjoyed together. Of course you could read one without the other, but I can assure you they would make even less sense than the X-Men series has in the past two years. The X-Men have … [Read more...]
