Wolverine: Weapon X #10

Mon, February 8th, 2010 | By James Hunt

Wolverine realize s he’s a kind of sick that even a healing factor can’t fix – lovesick.

Sweet Tooth #6

Mon, February 8th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

With the start of the second "Sweet Tooth" storyline, this mixture of past and future is a strong opening installment.

Wolverine: Savage #1

Mon, February 8th, 2010 | By James Hunt

Wolverine makes sushi. With his claws. Seriously.

The Lone Ranger #20

Sun, February 7th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

A sparse issue, but a good one, as the story builds in intensity.

Torch #5

Sun, February 7th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

If this issue were a children's storybook, it would be called "Too Many Torches!"

Red Robin #9

Sun, February 7th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

Red Robin – Tim Drake – returns to Gotham City and finds Killer Moth waiting for him as a nice welcome mat.

Marvel Heartbreakers #1

Fri, February 5th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Not everything in this comic is a masterpiece, but it's the best holiday-themed special I've read in years.

Deadman Wonderland Volume 1

Fri, February 5th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Nightmarish, but, like a nightmare, the pieces don't fit together cleanly.

Scalped #34

Fri, February 5th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

“The Gnawing” concludes with a lot of bloodshed and tremendous work by Jason Aaron and R. M. Guéra.

Disney's Hero Squad #1

Fri, February 5th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

The heroes of "Walt Disney Comics and Stories" spring from the pages of that series into their very own new series from BOOM! Kids.

William F. Nolan's Logan's Run Last Day #1

Fri, February 5th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Logan begins his run, in this adaptation of the original novel.

The Question #37

Thu, February 4th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

A clever and smart “Blackest Night” tie-in that can’t help but fall prey to the formula of the event.

Demo, Volume 2 #1

Thu, February 4th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

“Demo” returns and it’s like the series was never gone with a story about a woman haunted by a dream where a woman dies.

Blackest Night: Wonder Woman #3

Thu, February 4th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

"Blackest Night: Wonder Woman" #3 begins the wrap up of the "Blackest Night" tie-in miniseries. In other words, this is more "expanded story" than you'd get on the newly deputized Star Sapphire – Wonder Woman.

Red Tornado #6

Thu, February 4th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

The most recent attempt to put the spotlight on Red Tornado comes to a close –- a merciful close that left me hoping for more Red Tornado soon. The character deserves better.

Cable #23

Thu, February 4th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

This time-hopping series is still not only going nowhere, it's circling back on itself.

Doom Patrol #7

Wed, February 3rd, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

Keith Giffen keeps throwing ideas at the wall, but I'm not sure any of them are going to stick.

Zorro: Matanzas #1

Wed, February 3rd, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

Over a decade in the making, “Matanzas” #1 is a good introduction to Zorro and his alter-ego, Don Diego.

Indomitable Iron Man #1

Wed, February 3rd, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

An artistic showcase as Will Rosado and Howard Chaykin deliver 33 pages of striking black and white Iron Man artwork.

Superman: World of New Krypton #12

Wed, February 3rd, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

At the end of the day, the thing I liked the most about "Superman: World of New Krypton" may surprise you.

Nova #34

Wed, February 3rd, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

I'd like to think that we don't need any more, "and then two teams fight each other, one at a time" stories in comics.

Ultimate X #1

Tue, February 2nd, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

Older comic fans will come running at the sight of Arthur Adams' name on the cover. Heck, I could be listed as writer and comic fans would still buy it just for the Arthur Adams drawings.

Invincible Iron Man #23

Tue, February 2nd, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

Tony Stark does a great job trying to convince himself (and us) that he is Iron Man. Unfortunately, he never dons the armor in this issue. That doesn't mean this is a lost cause though.

Criminal: The Sinners #4

Tue, February 2nd, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

When an issue of "Criminal" is just ok, it's still head-and-shoulders above the rest.

Siege #2

Tue, February 2nd, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Asgard is under siege. Like it says in the title.

Batman and Robin #7

Mon, February 1st, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie

Morrison's Batman title has a good structure, interesting characters, and great pop art.

The Punisher #13

Mon, February 1st, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie

"The Punisher" is good fun comics. It's not likely to win a high award, but maybe it should.

Dark Reign: Hawkeye #5

Mon, February 1st, 2010 | By James Hunt

Bullseye finally foils those who were acting against him.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer #32

Mon, February 1st, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie

Brad Meltzer's story arc begins slowly, though with great promise, as Buffy's new powers unfold.

Detective Comics #861

Sun, January 31st, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

Jock steps in to draw three issues of "Detective Comics," and Rucka's script matches his new artist perfectly.

Astro City: The Dark Age Book Four #1

Sun, January 31st, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Every issue of this series is well-crafted, and this is no exception, but the story of the brothers Williams has gone on far too long.

Justice League of America #41

Sun, January 31st, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

James Robinson's "Justice League of America" starts building its new team, finally.

Amazing Spider-Man #619

Sat, January 30th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Silvermane! Mysterio! Marcos Martin! Three cheers for another good "Spidey" issue.

Superman #696

Sat, January 30th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

Not an awful lot happens in "Superman" this month, but it's still entertaining; doubly so with some great art.

Superman: Secret Origin #4

Sat, January 30th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

In what might by Gary Frank's best-looking Superman comic yet, we get new origin for the Parasite and more.

Ms. Marvel #49

Sat, January 30th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

Sana Takeda's airy artistry doesn't do much with Brian Reed's limp plot and dialogue.

Robocop #1

Sat, January 30th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan

This comic book sequel to the Verhoeven film reaches at that connection, but not much else.

Daredevil #504

Fri, January 29th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

Diggle’s dialogue and de la Torre’s art are both great, but the plot is very weak, mechanical, and clichéd.

Secret Warriors #12

Fri, January 29th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

Another chapter in the epic ensemble novel that is “Secret Warriors.” A very good comic that isn’t suited to 22-page issues.

Guardians of the Galaxy #22

Thu, January 28th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

"Guardians of the Galaxy" continues to show off solid, entertaining, outer-space super-hero stories.

The Unknown: The Devil Made Flesh #4

Thu, January 28th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

Mark Waid divides his attention between concluding this story and setting up the next, resulting in a less effective finale than this series’ opening issues demanded.

New Avengers #61

Thu, January 28th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett

Not exactly the promised “Siege” tie-in as the event is only hinted at while Bendis focuses on the continued feud between the Avengers and the Hhttp://www.comicbookresources.com/planetkrypton/add_user_review.php?type=cood’s gang.

Fantastic Four #575

Thu, January 28th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

Marvel's house ads for this issue show an image of a decomposing Galactus. That's in here, but not in the way you think. Or maybe it is exactly the way you think. At any rate, Mole Man makes an appearance too.

The Atom and Hawkman #46

Thu, January 28th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

"Blackest Night" has resurrected another title from the cancellation pile. This issue is about as close to "Blackest Night" #6 1/2 as we're going to get and it leads straight into February's "Blackest Night" #7.

Green Lantern #50

Thu, January 28th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie

Industry veteran Doug Mahnke fills the role of artistic clean-up batter, and "Green Lantern" #50 is his grand slam.

Justice League: Cry for Justice #6

Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

After the tizzy created by last issue's dismemberment, this issue promises to be quite the treat for those readers that have been anxiously awaiting the big reveal.

Supergirl #49

Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton

So that's what "Supergirl" is like when the title is not trapped in crossovers.

Kick Ass #8

Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By James Hunt

Kick Ass and Hit-Girl conclude their hyper-violent adventures.

Chew #8

Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

Determined to decide if "Chew" is really as fun (fun?!?) as he's heard and read, Doug samples (ha! Get it?) the most recent issue. Mmmm. Not bad. Funny aftertaste, but not bad. . .

Ultimate Enemy #1

Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza

Marvel's solicits threaten us with the revelation of the "face of true evil in the Ultimate Universe," but we never see the face in this issue. We do, however, see some great Rafa Sandoval art.

The Buy Pile

Thu, February 4th | Hannibal Tabu

It's easy to have a good week when only one book really annoys and the rest are filled with mud-splattered legends, a blood-splattered anti-hero, Chinese super military men, Tony Stark in crisis and a return to Milestone. [more...]
