A strong finale to a series I had written off too early.
The Umbrella Academy: Dallas #4
March 12th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
The universe of "The Umbrella Academy" is a strange and wonderfully cohesive one. This issue continues the oddness, while entertaining and impressing.

The art in the present day scenes and the flashbacks is excellent, but this series hasn't really started rolling yet.

January 31st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
This series might even be better than the original -- and that's quite an achievement.

January 2nd, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
The second "Umbrella Academy" mini is a bit lower key, but gives its artistic team a chance to shine.
X-Men Noir #1
December 3rd, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
Van Lente's script isn't the freshest thing in the world, but Calero's overwrought artwork makes this issue completely lifeless.

Leave it to Mike Allred to turn a series of double-page spreads into a fight sequence with metaphysical overtones.
Wolverine: Dangerous Game #1
June 10th, 2008 | By James Hunt
Yet another "Wolverine" one-shot fails to justify the high price point, this time with a lead by "Gutsville"’s Simon Spurrier and a backup by Rick Remender.
Hulk: Raging Thunder #1
June 10th, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza
A great value for the money, this comic gives you a classic "Hulk" tale next to a new tale from Jeff Parker and Mitch Breitweiser.
Dead of Night Featuring Man-Thing #3
April 13th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
"Dead of Night" is a horror comic that isn't all that scary. An attempt to be an EC Comic in the Marvel Universe isn't entirely successful.
