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 »

Marvel: Ultimates #1 by Deniz Camp - Review
I liked it. Ultimates #1 is a very entertaining layer cake that brings a lot of world without being too much to comprehend.One thing first, for those wondering, you don’t need any prior knowledge of either the old Ultimates or what’s been going on in Marvel’s Ultimate Universe... more »
Grommets #1 by Rick Remender - Review
With Rick Remender’s new mini-series, it really didn’t take more than a few preview pages from the publisher and the first few words of the teaser to make Grommets land directly in my subscription list.And now that it’s finally on my desk, it really only took a few panels filled with... more »
Blood Hunt: Red Band #2 by Jed McKay
On we go with the Blood Hunt, this time with the Red Band edition, since I am totally appropriate audience.The little collector in me just didn’t have the heart to tear off the foil on issue #1 and therefore made do with the PG version.But the little collector in me now keeps his mouth shut and... more »
