With its unique take on one of comicdom’s most controversial foibles, Monty Nero’s Death Sentence takes on the theme of comic book deaths with vigor and sophistication. Over the course…
The Occultist #1
Back from the dead, Dark Horse’s The Occultist entertains and brings a retro levity to the horror/superhero genre, but struggles to stand out from the pack. Formerly the basis of…

Grindhouse: Doors Open at Midnight #1
De Campi gleefully tests the boundaries of good taste in the best possible way. Sexy, violent, and perfectly cheesy, here’s hoping these grindhouse doors never close! Alex De Campi knows…
Lil Volume One
Available online and in print, this self-published gem is a down-and-dirty experiment in committing to a strong narrative voice. Truth be told, it took me a couple of readings to…

Awful. The best thing about Batman #23.1 is this review. Imagine yourself late into the Saturday night of a con weekend. You’re in the swanky hotel’s lobby surrounded by a…
Superior Spider-Man #18
Superior Spider-Man #18 was just okay. I’ve been loving Dan Slott’s take on the Superior Spider-Man. While I love Peter Parker with all my heart, I thought that this drastic…
Kiss Me, Satan #1
Kiss Me, Satan packs a creative punch, but starts off with more potential than substance. The werewolf mafia runs the organized crime community in New Orleans. Witches regularly find themselves…
Infinity #3
