Daredevil #504

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.

Fantastic Four #572

October 31st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Ambush Bug: Year None #7

October 31st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Issue #7 in this 6-part series is a disjointed disappointment.

Detective Comics #858

October 30th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

As though I needed to develop a man-crush on a comic book artist. This issue is crush-inducing, so read at your own risk.

FVZA: Federal Vampire and Zombie Agency #1

October 30th, 2009 | By Augie De Blieck Jr.

It's a high concept book trading on some of today's hottest high concepts, but it's a frustratingly slow start.

X-Factor #50

October 29th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

"X-Factor" has its future storyline lurch towards a conclusion, even as it looks ahead to the upcoming "X-Factor" #200.

Batman #692

October 29th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

Tony Daniel's first issue as writer/artist of "Batman" is already a step up from "Battle for the Cowl."

World's Finest #1

October 29th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

The DC Universe has frequently embraced the concept of legacy, frequently using old names in new ways to keep a brand alive or to spawn new ideas. "World's Finest" returns from the idea bin with a fresh team-up and a load of fun.

Blackest Night: Titans #3

October 29th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

"Blackest Night: Titans" ends here with a revelation of how to attack the Black Lanterns and a resolution that promises to bring many of these Titans to the main action.

October 28th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Noh-Varr and Fantomex team up to save the World. Oh hell yes.

Ultimate Comics Armor Wars #2

October 28th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Entertaining, but not entirely substantive. Though, Ellis continues to write a fantastic Ultimate Tony Stark.

Green Lantern #47

October 28th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

The main tie-in book to "Blackest Night" continues to entertain on multiple levels.

Blackest Night #4

October 28th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

A largely inconsequential issue unless you like boring speeches about being a hero and watching Barry Allen run around.

The Eternal Conflicts of the Cosmic Warrior #1

October 27th, 2009 | By Augie De Blieck Jr.

It's more of a pilot issue than a complete issue, but there's enough interesting stuff going on to make it worth a read. Plus, Paul Grist's art!

Ultimate Comics Avengers #3

October 27th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Enter the Avengers, a group that’s made up of new, darker versions of the Ultimates. It all comes down to how much you enjoy Mark Millar’s scummy characters.

October 27th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

This issue of "Incredible Hercules" follows the continuing journey of Amadeus Cho. The decisions he makes here will play out in these pages for a long time to come.

October 27th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

The three participating books in "X-Necrosha" show what they've got in store with zombie mutants, and there's some fun stuff up ahead.
