Batman/Doc Savage Special #1

November 11th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

A typical team-up special that follows the format to a tee, which is disappointing from a writer of Brian Azzarello’s skill.

Greek Street #5

November 10th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

The first story arc ends and, sadly, the direction of the book isn’t any clearer.

The Last Days of Animal Man #6

November 1st, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Buddy Baker's crimefighting career ends in this issue. Of course, this story is set in the not-so-distant future.

Wednesday Comics #12

September 23rd, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Many satisfying conclusions, and a job well done.

Wednesday Comics #11

September 18th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

The weaker strips in "Wednesday Comics" are still on shaky ground, but the best pages are still worth the price of admission.

Unknown Soldier #11

August 29th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

This issue doesn't quite come together as well as the last few, but it's probably the calm before the storm.

Wednesday Comics #6

August 12th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Halfway through the 12-week “Wednesday Comics” series and the quality remains high with gorgeous art and ever-improving writing.

Greek Street #2

August 6th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

After the first issue’s emphasis on set-up, the second issue looked clear to begin moving things forward, but not much of that happens thanks to a large ensemble cast that still needs definition.

Wednesday Comics #3

July 27th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

One third of the stories are great, but just as many are less than spectacular.

B.P.R.D.: 1947 #1

July 14th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie

The "BPRD" series and its spinoffs continue to flesh out the "Hellboy" universe well. The addition of Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba help sell this latest spin-off.

Wednesday Comics #1

July 8th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

"Wednesday Comics" doesn't just live up to the hype, it actually surpasses it. It really is that cool.

Wednesday Comics #1

July 8th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Art is king in DC’s new 12-issue weekly series that recalls the Sunday comics pages, using a broadsheet format. 15 pages of gorgeous art on giant pages. Not too shabby.

Greek Street #1

July 5th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

One dollar for 40 pages! You can’t ask for much else, can you?

The Last Days of Animal Man #2

June 29th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

"The Last Days of Animal Man" is entertaining, but that exposition dump in the middle is painful.

Unknown Soldier #8

June 6th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

"Unknown Soldier" started off with a strong debut, but the problem of setting the title in a real-world situation is starting to show.

The Last Days of Animal Man #1

May 28th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Continuing old home week for DC Comics, Gerry Conway (Google him if you have to ask) returns to craft a tale of Buddy Baker set in the not-so-distant future, but far enough in the future to be completely entertaining.

100 Bullets #100

April 15th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie

The violent tragedy of 100 Bullets comes to an end, ten years after it began, with its creators in firm control over the lives and endings of their characters.

Unknown Soldier #5

February 25th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Dysart and Ponticelli prepare us for the first big climax, and we start to see some connections to the past.

Hellboy: The Wild Hunt #2

January 10th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Mignola and Fegredo bring a majestic sadness to "The Wild Hunt."

Hellboy: The Wild Hunt #1

December 7th, 2008 | By Greg McElhatton

Mike Mignola and Duncan Fegredo's "Hellboy" collaborations continue, and it's even better than "Hellboy: Darkness Calls."

Hellboy: In the Chapel of Moloch

October 29th, 2008 | By Greg McElhatton

Mike Mignola returns to drawing "Hellboy" for this one-shot story, and it's everything you'd expect from the comic. (That's a good thing.)

Hellboy: The Crooked Man #3

September 25th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan

Richard Corben's beautiful grotesqueries are worth the price of admission.

100 Bullets #95

September 15th, 2008 | By Benjamin Birdie

As "100 Bullets" draws closer to its end, its creators continue to surprise with stories that are a little less grandiose than you might expect.

Hellboy: Darkness Calls

June 26th, 2008 | By Benjamin Birdie

The latest "Hellboy" collection from Mignola and Fegredo continues the evolution of the character, and Mignola's interest in folklore.

100 Bullets #91

May 22nd, 2008 | By Benjamin Birdie

"100 Bullets" is comics' least talked about great book. Now nearing its end, the storyline is kicking into high gear with an expanded scope.

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...]
