Fat Load of Books! - Reviews for 4/26

A lot of previews this week, plus a little something extra: IMAGE previews!  Didn’t get ot them though, so we’ll make an extra special addition to the reviews tomorrow.  Otherwise, enjoy!

American Way #3
Well, surprise, surprise, being a ‘fake’ superhero sucks.  The African-American hero, now known as ‘The New American’ takes his job seriously and becomes [...]

Rolling into Bed - Reviews for 4/19

Let’s try DC first, shall we?

Justice #5
It’s beautiful. BEAUTIFUL. I mean, open it up, first page, BAM! Probably the classiest the Elongated Man has looked in awhile. The story continues it’s epic rock god plot as the villains continue to work behind the public scenes to incapacitate or kill the members [...]

Looking at the Past and Hoping for the Future

Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #7
Okay, so more Mexican wrestler madness ensues this issue as when Spidey goes back to check [...]

Ms. Marvel #1 - So Close

One thing I would be remiss in mentioning (since a review of #2 is due up in a couple hours) is the rather well-recieved Ms. Marvel #1. Now, let me start by saying: YES! ROCK ON! Go Marvel for FINALLY stepping up and putting a super powered heroine in her very own [...]

Any Minute Now…

or ‘Surprise! You Already Know! - the Problems with Promoting Three Months Ahead’
What really sunk it in there for me was the most recent cover of Black Panther. Not shown at the Marvel site is the tagline that is set along the bottom of the image which is something to the effect of ‘Who will [...]

Hot-cha! Reviews for 4/5

Blame it on the rain!  It took me a bit to get home today, so the reviews come in just under the wire.  You’d think I’d be better at getting to them early…

X-Men Unlimited #14
This is the anthology series, right?  I hear that the ‘Unlimited’ books are going to turn into something else, but the [...]
