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

Daredevil #12 brings Matt Murdock one step closer to damnation (or is it salvation?) when he takes the ultimate step to save the souls of his friends trapped by the Beast in Hell. Is It Good? I don’t know how this is going to end, but I’m keenly interested in where Daredevil #12 is going. If you’ve paid attention to Comic Industry news, you know … Continue reading Daredevil #12 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 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 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 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 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 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

Punisher #12 brings the Punisher’s war to a close as the Avengers close in on the Hand’s compound. What punishment will the Punisher endure for his crimes? Is It Good? I’m not sure what I was expecting, if anything, from the end of Jason Aaron’s Punisher run. According to the epilogue, Punisher #12 is the end of Punisher, both for Jason Aaron as the writer … Continue reading Punisher #12 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
