November's Best of Marvel NOW! 2016 There's a trend happening that I've been hearing too often lately in my local comic shop, Cosmic Comics! in Las Vegas, and it centers around Marvel. Many readers just aren't interested in what Marvel is dishing out right now, and since I'm kind of the "Marvel" reader there I found this as odd as it was compelling since I'm currently reading … [Read more...]
Patsy Walker, A.K.A. Hellcat! #1. Life in Retail
Patsy Walker, A.K.A Hellcat! #1 review Yes, yes, believe it, Hellcat has her own comic book again! But instead of just calling it Hellcat they decided to go all bonkers and give it the enormous title of: Patsy Walker, A.K.A. Hellcat! #1 (don't forget the exclamation point). Crazy right, well Marvel knows what they're doing because the title matches the tone of the book … [Read more...]
Star Wars Darth Vader #1. Sith Failure.
Darth Vader #1 review Marvel continues to put it's partnership/ownership of the Star Wars franchise in high gear with the newest Darth Vader #1. Coming in hot off the heals of A New Hope, Darth Vader #1 lets you see Vader at his lowest. With the destruction of the Death Star and his failure to capture the rebels responsible, Vader is on the Emperors shit list. Still, Darth … [Read more...]

Could be a win either way I guess. Ant-Man … [Read more...]

Spider-Woman #1. Jessica’s So Called Life
Spider-Woman #1 Review The Spider-Verse is in full swing and completely blowing my mind, but probably not in the way you would think. The Spider-Verse is so intense and confusing that it's actually made my brain hurt. So many spidermens so little time, but one spider with the support of her popularity has managed to spread her web wings and branch out on her own, no not the … [Read more...]
Hawkeye vs Deadpool #0. Fun Size.
Hawkeye vs Deadpool #0 review Hawkeye vs Deadpool #0: because every murder investigation deserves this dream team of antiheroes. Like a sitcom mixed with cop drama, Hawkeye vs Deadpool #0 delivers the dark with the funny. I don't know what anyone else would really expect from this bunch, the cover essentially spells it out for you. I'll be the first to tell you I like … [Read more...]
