CAGE! / JESSICA JONES / CLONE CONSPIRACY / DEATH OF X / MOONSHINE / GREEN VALLEY [Review]: We Are the ‘Champions’…

Luke Cage is back to his groovy origins with Marvel Now’s newest reboot Cage! (yes that exclamation point is part of the actual title). This time around, we have none other than Genndy Tartakovsky, creator of Samurai Jack, here to provide both the writing and the art! His stylized art is absolutely perfect for the …

SHADE the CHANGING GIRL / BLACK / DEATH of HAWKMAN / INTERTWINED [Reviews]: It’s a Revolution!

Joe Action Figures and …

GENERATION ZERO / RISE of the BLACK FLAME / FAITH / LAKE OF FIRE / SIXPACK & DOGWELDER [Reviews]: No More…

I wasn't allowed to do any more Valiant reviews for a time here, because I tended to hog all the reviews and give everything perfect or near-perfect scores; it was getting repetitive, and I was running out of superlatives and cliches. But, thankfully, that drought has now been broken and I've been sent the first …

THE HELLBLAZER / BLUE BEETLE REBIRTH / DEATHSTROKE / DEMONIC [Reviews]: Bury You With Satan.

Simon Oliver’s Hellblazer is a return to form for John Constantine in more ways than one. Constantine is back in his old stomping grounds of London which instantly makes the series feel much more authentic and also lets the readers reacquaint themselves with some old friends. There are several callbacks to Jamie Delano’s original run …
