Comic Review of Hulk #17, Ares #2, Superman Secret Origin #3, Image United #1 & Fantastic Four #573

Rating System: 0 to 1.5 stars = save your money unless you are just mindlessly collecting the title. 2 to 3.5 = worth a shot if you are up to trying something new or wanting to get back into a title. 4 to 5 = a must buy for any comic reader. FANTASTIC FOUR #573 - Jonathan Hickman has really started something special with his run on Fantastic Four. We saw in last issue that as Ben and Johnny were heading for a quick vacation on Nu-Earth, Franklin and Val stowed-away in the Fantasti-Car. When t...

Comic Review For The Week Of 11/14/09

Rating System: 0 to 1.5 stars = save your money unless you are just mindlessly collecting the title. 2 to 3.5 = worth a shot if you are up to trying something new or wanting to get back into a title. 4 to 5 = a must buy for any comic reader. DEADPOOL #17 - Whoo-hooo! More Deadpool. And a real Deadpool with a story that isn’t just a filler to boot. Now that Wade has “joined” the X-Men, he’s decided to kill that father of one of mutants on Nation X who’s working with Osborn to throw some bad PR...

STAR WARS: INVASION #5 - This is the last issue of the Invasion limited series, but probably not the end of the story. Dark Horse announced recently that Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic would be ending some time next year to be replaced by a new St...

Rating System: 0 to 1.5 stars = save your money unless you are just mindlessly collecting the title. 2 to 3.5 = worth a shot if you are up to trying something new or wanting to get back into a title. 4 to 5 = a must buy for any comic reader. ANTI-VENOM: NEW WAYS TO LIVE #2 - I get it. Venom is popular. So was the Joker rip-off, Carnage. I’m a big Marvel and Spidey fan, but I firmly believe that the Symbiote Saga and the Clone Crap have damaged the Spider-Man books so bad that even “big” event...

Comics Review for the Week of 10/7/09

GET ‘EM BEFORE THEY’RE GONE… HAUNT #1 - First issue of the Todd McFarlane/Tyler Kirkman/ Ryan Ottely/ Greg Capullo superjam comic series from Image. Co-created by McFarlane and Kirkman, Kirkman is handling the main story and dialogue while Capullo does layouts for Ryan Ottley’s pencils and Todd wraps the whole things up by inking it. Haunt is surprisingly a lot like Dr./Brother Voodoo where a dead sibling jumps into the body of their living brother - imbuing them with power. Daniel is a disen...
