Avengers: The Initiative #32
Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
"Siege" is under way and the Initiative -- with Taskmaster leading the charge -- is right there in the thick of the invasion of Asgard. Bad things happen.
Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers #1
Wed, January 27th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The Wreckers are tasked to Garrus-9, which was taken over by Decepticons three years previous and turned into Overlord’s private Roman Empire.
Captain America: Reborn #6
Tue, January 26th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
A satisfying conclusion, finally, to a series that had lost its momentum.
Thor #606
Tue, January 26th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
Gillen and Tan set the stage for the title’s role in “Siege” with Thor fighting Doom who happens to be using the Destroyer armor.
X-Men: Legacy #232
Tue, January 26th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
Nothing really progresses in the latest issue of "X-Men: Legacy," but as an extended series of fight and chase scenes it's not bad.
Avengers vs. Agents of Atlas #1
Tue, January 26th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie
In a Marvel that's becoming stranger by the month, a bunch of freewheeling 50's throwbacks can fit right in.
Blackest Night: The Flash #2
Tue, January 26th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie
Kollins' art is superb, Johns' story goes beyond the formula for a very good "Flash" tie-in to "Blackest Night."
Captain America #602
Mon, January 25th, 2010 | By James Hunt
Captain America is back. Not that one, the other one. No, the other other one.
Amazing Spider-Man #618
Mon, January 25th, 2010 | By James Hunt
Spider-Man gets caught in the crossfire of organized crime, and the return of Mysterio
RASL #6
Mon, January 25th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The focus on Nikola Tesla distracts somewhat from the book’s ongoing plot in this issue as Smith begins the book’s bimonthly shipping schedule.
The Darkness: Shadows & Flame #1
Mon, January 25th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
Rob Levin and Jorge Lucas craft a psychological horror story with Lovecraftian traits well despite relying on an overly obvious plot.
Doctor Voodoo: Avenger of the Supernatural #4
Sun, January 24th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
In seeking to upend the nefarious plot of Nightmare, Doctor Voodoo reaches deep into his past to find his true power.
Fables #92
Sun, January 24th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
"Fables" goes for one of its patented side-stories, but this time the result is a little underwhelming.
Realm of Kings: Inhumans #3
Sun, January 24th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
"Realm of Kings: Inhumans" is getting a tiny bit by-the-numbers predictable, unfortunately.
Superman/Batman #68
Thu, January 21st, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
Remember that one-off issue Joe Casey wrote in October that was followed by three unrelated issues? Yeah, this one picks up from there and also ties into “Our Worlds at War.” Eight years later? What?
Green Lantern Corps #44
Thu, January 21st, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
Guy Gardner continues his red ring-powered rampage, delivering his own unmitigated brand of justice to everyone in his path. There are some other lanterns in here too.
Outsiders #26
Thu, January 21st, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
A new era for the book begins with a series of missteps and puzzling decisions. Oh, and Philip Tan already needs help from another artist. Not good signs.
Starman #81
Thu, January 21st, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
A worthy epilogue to the legendary Robinson "Starman" run.
Dark Wolverine #82
Thu, January 21st, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
In the midst of a "Siege," Daken does some stabbin'. But his victim isn't necessarily who you'd expect.
Joe the Barbarian #1
Thu, January 21st, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
"Joe the Barbarian" is off to a slightly slow start, but given the gist of the series, it makes sense.
Incorruptible #2
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The spin-off of “Irredeemable” is showing itself to be a book worth reading with a ground-level approach to the world.
Phantom Stranger #42
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
". . . the Stranger comes when the Stranger is needed." Evidently the Stranger is needed to advance a subplot of "Blackest Night."
Incredible Hulk #606
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
"Fall of the Hulks" continues to rage on, with much smashing.
Uncanny X-Men #520
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
The story is good, but the blatant photo-references in the art are getting harder to ignore.
Spider-Woman #5
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
This is some austere, beautiful stuff, and it's sure to work even better in the collected edition.
Wolverine: Weapon X #9
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
"Insane in the Brain" concludes, and Logan may or may not live to tell the tale. (Actually, who am I kidding? Of course he lives! He's Wolverine.)
Nova #33
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
A lackluster, standard version of the time-displaced heroes story that doesn’t break new ground or offer any surprises.
Dark Avengers #13
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The secrets of the Sentry are revealed to have been revealed already! Um, what?
Mighty Avengers #33
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
Reality punches are thrown. Bad stuff happens. And the Mighty Avengers live to tell the tale.
Hulk #19
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
A mere fragment of a larger story, but Loeb and McGuinness give us another fun installment of this series.
Thunderbolts #140
Wed, January 20th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
Two groups who aren't what they appear to be face off under the orders of Norman Osborn, who also isn't what he appears to be. Craziness, I tell you, but in a good way.
Invincible Iron Man #22
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie
The book might be moving a little slower now, but it's still very interesting, with great character pieces.
Catwoman #83
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie
"Catwoman" suffers from formatting restrictions and uninked rushed-looking art, but still delivers on its premise.
Transformers #3
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By James Hunt
Ultra Magnus arrives to start kicking some Autobot tail.
The Marvels Project #5
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
Fans of Brubaker and Epting's "Captain America" will definitely want to read this title if they aren't already.
Daytripper #2
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
With its second issue, the idea behind "Daytripper" is starting to become a bit clearer. Perhaps.
Batman #695
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
Tony Daniel is putting a lot of characters into the mix, but nothing gets lost in the shuffle.
X-Men Forever #15
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By James Hunt
The “evil” Storm flees to Wakanda to visit her once-and-future love, T’Challa.
The Muppet Show Comic Book #1
Tue, January 19th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The Muppets hit the road in the first issue of their ongoing series and it’s a success for them and Roger Langridge.
Secret Six #17
Mon, January 18th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
The Secret Six squaring off against the Suicide Squad during Blackest Night seems so natural, it's almost creepy.
Adventure Comics #6
Mon, January 18th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
Even as an oversized issue, "Adventure Comics" #6 feels a little rushed.
Weekly World News #1
Mon, January 18th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The jokes aren’t funny, the story is nonexistent, and the main character is a stereotype, but the art is pretty good.
S.W.O.R.D. #3
Mon, January 18th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
The best issue of the series yet as Beast works to stop Gyrich’s plan to deport all of the aliens on Earth.
Marvel Super Hero Squad #1
Mon, January 18th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
The calculated cute caricatures of your favorite Marvel icons have made their way to the floppies. Your kids'll probably want it.
The Unwritten #9
Mon, January 18th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
A prison break! Tragedy! Sadness! Another good installment of Vertigo's "Harry Potter" pastiche.
Dark X-Men #3
Sun, January 17th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
Cleanly drawn, clearly told, and it's not so much about the Dark X-Men as it is about Nate Grey and the Dark Avengers.
Aliens Vs. Predator: Three World War #1
Sun, January 17th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
After making it to the silver screen, the matchup between the Aliens and the Predators seems lackluster as a comic book concept, but this series looks to add a new dynamic to that rivalry.
Absolution #6
Sun, January 17th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
A strong opening concerning superheroes and killing only leads to a disappointing end to this mini-series.
R.E.B.E.L.S. #12
Sun, January 17th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
Borges is an inadequate replacement for either Clarke or St. Aubin, but the story has some interesting moments.
The Power of SHAZAM! #48
Thu, January 14th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
Cover dated eleven years after "The Power of SHAZAM!" #47, and priced a mere 49¢ more than "The Power of SHAZAM!" #47, "Power of SHAZAM!" comes back among the rest of the Black Lantern titles rising from the ranks of the can
