Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Nightwatcher #1 by Juni Ba
I like what IDW is doing with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise.Not to say it needed a freshen-up but, yeah, it kinda needed a freshen-up. No complete makeover but a few new influences, new authors, new approaches, a fresh wind, a few people from the outside who see New York from more than... more »
Hellverine #3 by Benjamin Percy - Review
Hellverine is dark.Truly dark.Sinister. Powerful. Loud. The roaring loud. Fast. Fiery...Yes, sorry, I can only think of metalhead cliché vocabulary. Because that’s what Hellverine #3 is: Metal!While reading, riffs are already forming and coalescing with the double bass drum.The story about... more »
Ultimate Spider-Man #7 by Jonathan Hickman - Review
The seventh issue of Ultimate Spider-Man introduces the new arc, and pleasantly enough it doesn’t do so with a big bang, but with a simmering, still calmly gliding storyline.Harry Osborne and Peter Parker get to know their new suits and (Doc) Otto Octavious, Oscorp’s resident brain, helps... more »
Something is Killing the Children #39 by James Tynion IV
Anyone who still had doubts at the beginning of this arc as to whether this episodic narrative style, in which each issue highlights a self-contained story from Erica’s past, will have to admit after Something is Killing the Children #39 at the lates: it works brilliantly.Tynion IV uses this... more »
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 by Jason Aaron - Review
So it’s the Turtles‘ turn, with the Aaron reboot.I’m already wondering whether it’s the same in all publishing house meetings: "Guys, we need a makeover for our superheroes." - "hm, ponder, ponder" - "..." - "..." - "What’s... more »

Public Domain #6 by Chip Zdarsky - Reviw
Finally, Chip Zdarsky’s Public Domain is back. Issue #6 continues what the first arc started so strikingly.You can recognize good, impactful comic series by the fact that even after a long break, just a few panels are enough to suck you back into its world. And that’s exactly what... more »
Falling In Love On The Path To Hell #1 by Gerry Duggan
I don’t know exactly what I was expecting, but after all the choruses and praise Falling In Love On The Path To Hell #1 got after its release, I was kind of expecting more.That’s not to say I didn’t like the intro issue to Gerry Duggan and Garry Brown’s new series. No, no, on... more »
Zatanna: Bring Down The House #1 by Mariko Tamaki - Review
Alright. I’m gonna start this off with the most obvious pun I could do for Zatanna: Bring Down The House #1. But this comes closest to describe the impact. So:Javier Rodriguez’s artwork is pure magic! My previous relationship with Zatanna was actually rather mediocre. For me, she was always more... more »
