Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #13 Review

Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #13 brings Sam and Steve back together after a brutal fight, only to be confronted by King Wolf’s forces, an avalanche, and much more. Is It Good? File Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #13 under “random things happening without explanation,” which means Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly have fully lost the plot of what they’re trying to do in this … Continue reading Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #13 Review

Deadpool: Badder Blood #1 Review

Deadpool: Badder Blood #1 puts Deadpool on the trail of Van Strutten, the man responsible for turning Deadpool’s friend into the biomechanical killing machine called Thumper. Is It Good? Deadpool: Badder Blood #1 is okay. This issue exemplifies one of the rare examples where there’s nothing technically wrong with it, but the issue will either work for you or not, depending on what you’re looking … Continue reading Deadpool: Badder Blood #1 Review

Fantastic Four #8 Review

Fantastic Four #8 finds the Fantastic Four enjoying their time away from the big city when a mysterious force causes local people, and all memory of them, to disappear. Is It Good? Fantastic Four #8 is less silly and nonsensical than previous issues in Ryan North’s run, so that’s a provisional positive. Ivan Fiorelli’s art looks fantastic, the action is bright and imaginative, and Jesus … Continue reading Fantastic Four #8 Review

Captain America: Symbol of Truth #13 Review

Captain America: Symbol of Truth #13 finds Sam and Steve at each other’s throats after their first steps into Dimension Z go poorly. Is It Good? If all you want is action, regardless of story, substance, or sense, Captain America: Symbol of Truth #13 is a darn fine comic. For the rest of us, Captain America: Symbol of Truth #13 falls short. When last we … Continue reading Captain America: Symbol of Truth #13 Review

Clobberin’ Time #3 Review

Clobberin’ Time #3 finds the everlovin’, blue-eyed Thing teaming up with the Sorcerer Supreme to stop a time-traveling thief. Is It Good? Clobberin’ Time #3 is something else, I’m just not sure what. In the previous reviews, I was favorable to Steve Skroce’s mix of irreverent wit and boisterous action wrapped around the mystery of a time-traveling thief up to no good. In issue #2, … Continue reading Clobberin’ Time #3 Review

Deadpool #7 Review

Deadpool #7 concludes the big date between Deadpool and Valerie with an explosive trip to the Planetarium that ends in an unintended Twilight sequel. Is It Good? Deadpool #7 is irritating. Alyssa Wong either doesn’t understand the character of Deadpool or can’t make a decision about what kind of story is being told in this series. Sometimes, the issue comic mimics Ryan Reynolds in the … Continue reading Deadpool #7 Review

Doctor Strange #3 Review

Doctor Strange #3 puts the shocking news of Aggamon’s death aside so Doctor Strange and Dormammu can stroll through the city for their annual Parley Day. Is It Good? On its face, Doctor Strange #3 is a quirky, mildly amusing bottle issue wherein Doctor Strange satisfies an annual requirement to meet with Dormammu to keep mutual hostilities in check. There’s nothing wrong with bottle issues … Continue reading Doctor Strange #3 Review

Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #5 Review

Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #5 brings the mini-series to a close with a last stand at Nueva York’s Tele-Port facility to stop Carnage 2099 from spreading globally. Is It Good? Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #5 caps off Steve Orlando’s second run at the future Spider-Man with a big, frantic battle, a little pathos surrounding the nature of Punisher 2099, and a relatively clean ending that … Continue reading Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #5 Review

Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #4 Review

Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #4 sets the plan in motion to lure Carnage 2099 away from his hive and into a trap designed by Ghost Rider 2099 and Lyla. Will the plan work? Is It Good? No, the plan doesn’t work. The plan *almost* works, but it doesn’t completely work, so what better way to cap off the penultimate run in this mini-series than by … Continue reading Spider-Man 2099: Dark Genesis #4 Review

Helllcat #3 Review

Hellcat #3 widens and deepens the investigation into Spalding Grantham’s murder when Patsy Walker discovers Grantham had dark secrets with a connection to the forces of Hell. Is It Good? Tedious. In a word, Hellcat #3 is tedious. The basis of a curious murder mystery is present in Christopher Cantwell’s plot, but the delivery zigs and zags for miles, so you’re motion sick and annoyed … Continue reading Helllcat #3 Review

Bloodline: Daughter of Blade #4 Review

Bloodline: Daughter of Blade #4 learns the painful reason why having a secret identity is important when Decon Frost and his minions kidnap Brielle’s mother. Is It Good? Bloodline: Daughter of Blade #4 is an average comic book with an average plot, an average protagonist, below-average art (for a Marvel comic), and generally terrible dialog. Honestly, this issue is as good as this mini-series is … Continue reading Bloodline: Daughter of Blade #4 Review

Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #12 Review

Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #12 begins the fight to enter Dimension Z when Captains America, Sharon Carter, and Misty Knight fight their way to the only portal open to save Ian. Is It Good? If you haven’t heard the news, this series will be ending in July 2023, so that means we have two more issues to go before Captain America goes on a … Continue reading Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #12 Review
