Alessandro Spitoni Comic Reviews

What starts off seeming like a cookie-cutter, alternative superhero pulp gets the kind of ending that makes The Mantle a possible gem to watch out for going forward.

The series continues to keep the reader hooked with some good plot crumbs.

Horrible story, enveloping artists trying to bring this shambles to life.

An utterly unique world of colour and emotion to be explored, with a story full of depth once you've waded past some surface hiccups.

A muted world with booming characters. A strong start for the series.

This book is yet another addition to a beautifully written, comedic tale. All the while framed by it's almost perfect cartoonic imagery.

Sex Criminals #8 is still extending the world for the series going forward. Still as well-written and beautifully-illustrated as before.

A slower-paced affair, but tells a strong story by doing so.

A fantastic fusion of the original series' grit and the new series' charm.

A well-timed ending to this tale of love and blood.

Sunshine and Roses opens the door to a very unexciting main story, but somewhere in the background boils something more intriguing.

The story is getting there, but we're still working on foundations at this point. At least Tech Jacket gives us something beautiful to look at as they build.

A strong block of action in the foundations for the comic going forward.

A slower-paced padding, but bright and colourful enough to keep your excitement up.

The great art style and great dialogue work as the crutches to a limping story as we take things in a new direction.

A very strong start for this new series.

A good backstory to be read, even better backstory to be seen.

This is an outstanding read. There is absolutely nothing that prohibits the reader from being absorbed into the rounded, colourful world on display.

It's not the strongest issue of the series, but still an enjoyable addition to the tale; even if some of the more interesting plot points have been put on hold.

The pacing is slow, and the world leaves a lot of questions. Though not without some good wit and art to be found.

We get a good insight to the world of He, though not enough to fully justify investing now rather than waiting for the trade.

This is definitely an intriguing read. It's a little light on plot for now, and the character designs are a little off, but there is definitely a lot of potential to this series!
