GHOST RIDER / STAR WARS / INHUMANS vs. X-MEN / REGGIE & ME / M.A.S.K. / VENOM [Reviews]: Spirits of Vengeance.

Taking a cue from the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.--a comic that finally resembled the likeness of the hit television show--Ghost Rider #1 sparks its scorching hot engines for another go at Robbie Reyes. Another, as in.. his 3rd #1? With Marvel counting on the fiery East LA resident's newfound popularity to survive on the shelves, it's …

SAVAGE / ULTIMATES 2 / VIOLENT LOVE / ETHER [Reviews]: Grand Passion.

DC's Rebirth is continuing its sleek reintroduction of characters, and Batman Beyond just throws the reader right in the thick of it; I must have missed the set-up here (as I didn't read …

CAVE CARSON HAS A CYBERNETIC EYE / BLOODSHOT USA / MOSAIC [Reviews]: Four Square.

There’s a myriad of reasons for any comic book reader to skip this book.
