Superior Spider-Man #31 – Dan Slott’s Character-Defining Run Comes to an Anti-Climactic End

  • by Levi Hunt
  • April 17, 2014

Superior Spider-Man ends in a big way; unfortunately, it may have been the previous issue that was superior. This is it. This is the big, crazy ending to this big,…

All-New Ultimates #1 – Copra’s Michel Fiffe Makes an Ultimate Debut at Marvel

  • by Levi Hunt
  • April 14, 2014

All-New Ultimates, by Michel Fiffe and Amilcar Pinna, offers the perfect concept for Marvel’s Ultimate Universe. However, the story still has some steps to take. When the Marvel Ultimate Universe…

  • April 2, 2014

With the world established, the fun can really begin. I must admit, I had fallen a bit behind on The Private Eye before this most recent issue launched. It has nothing to…

Silver Surfer #1 – Mike Allred Inspires Comparison to the Greats in This Wonderfully Drawn Issue

  • by Levi Hunt
  • March 27, 2014

An artistic tour-de-force is interrupted by such trifling things as “plot” and “set-up” Writer Dan Slott often has a knack for spicing up his stories by adding the best of…

Sex Criminals #5 – Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky Make the Perfect Couple for This Outrageous Book

  • by Levi Hunt
  • March 24, 2014

The final part of this opening arc exemplifies everything that makes Sex Criminals great. I am constantly surprised by the emotional depth of this crazy little book called Sex Criminals. (It’s even more…

The Returning #1 – Jason Starr and Andrea Mutti Deliver a Creepy Tale that Ultimately Gets Away from Them

  • by Levi Hunt
  • March 14, 2014

Is Jason Starr and Andrea Mutti’s book just another return-from-death story or the next Revival? It’s unfair to compare The Returning to any of the other not-quite-zombie tales that have littered pop…

Daredevil #36 – Mark Waid and Chris Samnee Make the Best Superhero Comics Around

  • by Levi Hunt
  • February 24, 2014

The best ongoing superhero series gets an ending, and  a new beginning It’s hard to argue with Saga, but I’ll try. In December we at Broken Frontier awarded Saga as our ongoing series…

Thor: God of Thunder #19 – And Thus, the People Did Rejoice, for Esad Ribic Had Returned to them

  • by Levi Hunt
  • February 14, 2014

Jason Aaron’s writing on Thor: God of Thunder has been some of the best of his career. The plots he’s written are tense and sprinkled with top-notch humor. Thor has…

Loki: Agent of Asgard #1 Delights in the Recent Tradition of Other Equally Delightful Lokis.

  • by Levi Hunt
  • February 6, 2014

Fun and whimsy define this book. Loki: Agent of Asgard has a lot to live up to. Kieron Gillen’s recent use of the character in the cult-favorite Journey into Mystery run is one…

The Walking Dead “All Out War” #115-120

  • by Levi Hunt
  • February 3, 2014

A beautifully drawn story that bares little resemblance to what this series once was. The Walking Dead #100 was promised as a game-changing issue for the months leading up to it….

Dead Boy Detectives #2

  • by Levi Hunt
  • February 3, 2014

The longevity of the Sandman franchise is remarkable. Two and a half decades after Neil Gaiman introduced the world of The Endless to comic book readers, this franchise is still inspiring spin-offs. The…

Zero #5

  • by Levi Hunt
  • January 20, 2014

Not at all your typical spy story I was very resistant to Zero when the book first came out. I’m not generally a fan of spy/war/unflappable-badass-super-killer fiction. The cold, calculating nature of…

The Fox #3

  • January 14, 2014

The Multiple Men that are Jamie Madrox: An X-Factor Retrospective

  • December 12, 2013

In many ways, Peter David’s X-Factor series was more about Jamie Madrox than it was about anyone else on the team. The series came about following the critical success of…
