Fantastic Four #575
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.
Gigantic #5
January 9th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
"Gigantic" reaches its dramatic conclusion, and it was worth the wait.
Siege: Embedded #1
January 5th, 2010 | By Chad Nevett
A promising first issue that fails to deliver compelling or entertaining writing, but Chris Samnee’s art is gorgeous and almost worth the four dollar admission.
Fantastic Four #574
December 25th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Happy Birthday, Franklin Richards! Hope you survive the experience.
The Last Days of American Crime #1
December 23rd, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
There’s two weeks left until crime is over as we know it and Graham has an idea for one big score. What is it? Well, read the comic!
Godland #30
December 17th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Who doesn’t want a comic book featuring Kadeem Hardison? Remember him? Dwayne Wayne from “A Different World?” He’s in this book! That’s cool, right?
Fantastic Four #573
November 26th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Things go awry on Nu-Earth as the visiting Thing, Human Torch, and Richards kids discover much to their dismay.
Fantastic Four #572
October 31st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Hickman exorcises the Reed Richards-centric focus by focusing on a Reed Richards-centric story. And it works!
Fantastic Four #570
August 24th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Jonathan Hickman's Reed Richards meets his match(es).
Fantastic Four #569
July 29th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
The Millar/Hitch run ends with the two barely involved. That doesn’t seem to matter since Stuart Immonen draws this extra-sized issue and he sure does draw the hell out of it.
Fantastic Four #568
July 2nd, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Millar and Hitch's FF prepares for a landing, but the co-pilots are already heading out the door.
Invincible #63
June 17th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
Superhero comics don't always have to be pretty. This issue is certainly not pretty. Blood, guts, violence, and death.
Fantastic Four #566
May 19th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
An entire issue devoted to the coming of Doom’s master. The tension is high, but the content is lacking.
The Walking Dead #61
May 19th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
"The Walking Dead" is a hard book to both read and recommend. It is uncompromising, and in some ways almost ludicrously uncompromising.
Destroyer #2
May 5th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
The best under-the-radar series of the spring, featuring a Kirkman/Walker reunion.
Godland #27
April 17th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
The book so nice they named it twice. Okay, they didn’t, but wouldn’t you buy a book called “Gødland Gødland”? I know I would!
Marvel Zombies 4 #1
April 14th, 2009 | By James Hunt
A new Midnight Sons team take on the ridiculous Marvel Zombies.
Jersey Gods #3
April 7th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
“Jersey Gods” is finding its groove three issues in as Glen Brunswick and Dan McDaid juggle cosmic war and human annoyances.
The Destroyer #1
April 2nd, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Turns out, this long-forgotten Golden Age character is still alive and kicking butt. More of the latter than the former.
Amazing Spider-Man Extra #3
March 24th, 2009 | By James Hunt
Contains three stories that fell between the cracks of Spider-Man’s recent adventures.
Invincible #60
March 19th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Even if the event of this book were just the cover, it would be a success. "Invincible" #60 has a lot of action packed inside that extra-wide cover.
Charlatan Ball #6
March 12th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
“Charlatan Ball” #6 is rated F for fun and contains extreme goofiness, mild laughs, and a snot joke.
Jersey Gods #2
March 5th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Too much clichéd plot about gods fighting and not enough domestic comedy. A charming, fun read, but with the potential to be a lot better.
Dark Reign: Fantastic Four #1
March 4th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Jonathan Hickman’s work on the Fantastic Four begins here with cookie cutter characterization and a wonderful premise that has Reed Richards trying to fix the world.
Youngblood #8
February 25th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Another Obama cover has Rob Liefeld return to “Youngblood” and the strongest Casey/Donovan issue yet, though it seems to be their last.
Ultimate Fantastic Four #60
February 24th, 2009 | By James Hunt
"Ultimate Fantastic Four" comes to an end – with a cliffhanger and instructions to read two other comics.
Gødland #26
February 18th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
How does one describe a comic so unique and brilliant, so energetic and full of life? By making up words like cosmitastic, of course!
Youngblood #7
February 5th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Uninteresting, dull, boring, humdrum, tedious; take your pick, but they all describe “Youngblood” #7 and I have no idea why.
Jersey Gods #1
February 4th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
“Jersey Gods” #1 doesn’t quite deliver what someone who’s read the solicitations would expect, but the set-up story here is pretty entertaining.
Fantastic Four #563
January 27th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
A slice of life tale is overshadowed by the impending darkness in this disturbingly ominous issue by Millar and Hitch.
Fantastic Four #562
January 7th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
Millar and Hitch's Fantastic Four is a strong bridge between classic and modern storytelling. This issue features strong characterization, and detailed art.
Fantastic Four Cosmic-Size Special #1
January 1st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Veteran scribe Cary Bates tells an FF tale with some interesting psychological depth.
Gigantic #2
December 29th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
Earth is the most popular reality show in the universe, and now its inhabitants know it.
Moon Knight: Silent Knight #1
December 7th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
Peter Milligan comes in for a Christmas-themed one-shot that's an improvement over the regular "Moon Knight" series.
Charlatan Ball #5
December 4th, 2008 | By Chad Nevett
Another lackluster issue in this magic-based book that has lots of promise, but little follow-through.
Fantastic Four #561
November 18th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
The Nu Defenders vs. the Fantastic Four, in spectacular widescreen action.
Gigantic #1
November 5th, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza
"As we advance, our population becomes more and more dependant on entertainment," is some insight Rick Remender offers into this new title from Dark Horse.
Marvel Zombies 3 #2
November 5th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
Machine Man Aaron Stack gets the spotlight in this fun-filled bloodbath.
Marvel Zombies 3 #1
October 7th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
A surprisingly excellent start to another zombie series from Marvel.
X-Men Origins: Beast #1
September 5th, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza
"X-Men Origins" continues with the story of the Beast before he joined the X-Men. We've seen pieces in flashback, but this story is set completely in flashback and takes Hank McCoy out of the ordinary world.
Wolverine: First Class #6
September 2nd, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza
"Wolverine: First Class" attempts to put the "all" back in "all ages" reads. Find out what Doug Zawisza and his oldest daughter, Amanda, think about this latest issue of the shared adventures of Logan and Kitty Pryde.
The Walking Dead #50
July 3rd, 2008 | By Augie De Blieck Jr.
"The Walking Dead" hits a milestone with a much quieter storyline of Rick's son's confusion in a world filled with zombies.
Fantastic Four #557
May 21st, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
Millar and Hitch's first arc concludes with some robot-on-robot action.
Ultimate Fantastic Four #53
April 25th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
The weakest title of the Ultimate line continues to falter.
Fantastic Four #556
April 10th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
The sexed-up Fantastic Four must survive a dual attack: a Captain America robot and the excesses of writer Mark Millar.
