LOKI #2 Preview

Restless with his new duties after the War of the Realms, Loki seeks out the advice of the closest thing Earth has to a king – TONY STARK, THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN! – Close enough, right?

Now the God of Mischief/Stories/Evil/Chaos has to outsmart the cleverest man in Midgard or die (again) trying. Meanwhile, could Thor be hatching a mischievous plot of his own?

Invisible Woman #2 Review

My knowledge on the 616 Fantastic Four team is very limited maybe even nothing while my knowledge on the Ultimate Fantastic Four team is basically everything that happened to them in that universe. I was excited to learn about one of the members. So far, we learned she is a badbutt secret agent. But, how awesome is secret agent Susie? Let’s dig in and see what we have here… Continue reading Invisible Woman #2 Review

Old Man Quill #8 Review

After that confusing and game-changing cliffhanger, this issue was the one I was waiting for the most! All of those “Old Man…” titles never really catch my attention but after reading this series so far, I might have to check them back out. With the discovery of Quill being the last surviving member of the Guardians, the odds are certainly stacked against him. But how did he become the only surviving member? We saw the rest of the fight. Let’s dig in and see what we have here… Continue reading Old Man Quill #8 Review

Plus, does Rick still have abilities leftover from his “connection” with Abomination? Let’s smash into this one and find out! Continue reading Immortal Hulk #22 Review

Champions #8 Review and Spoilers

Sam Alexander’s in a spot of bother. Having taken Kaldera, a Black Order assassin, to a Nova outpost to retrieve his Nova helmet (a decision that produced a depressingly predictable amount of bloodshed and mayhem), he’s found out that the helmet’s already been stolen and taken back to Earth. Oh, the irony! This issue has “big, messy confrontation” written all over it, doesn’t it? Let’s see what’s going on… Continue reading Champions #8 Review and Spoilers

Star Wars #70 Review

This issue gives us Part III of what has, to date, been a great start to Pak and Noto’s time on the main Star Wars title. A light-hearted fun story, combined with fantastic art has made this a real delight of a book, but the critical third issue is where we usually expect story strands to start to tighten up. Will this happen in issue 70 of Star Wars? Let’s find out. Continue reading Star Wars #70 Review
