Annie Comic Reviews

Altogether, Adventure Time with Fionna and Cake Card Wars # 3 contains writing with a great depth and understanding of emotions. The artwork of the comic is detailed to go with well-designed characters. The comic slows down for deeper moments of silence to allow the impact of the plot to sink in.

Altogether, Trueheart, Alexovich, and Lawton combine their efforts to create a decent and funny comic. However, minor flaws may be found at the end of the storys epilogue as all of the drama and tension may feel irrelevant. Yet, the flaw in the epilogue may further the humor of the comic as it shows it was all sound and fury. Truly dark humor at its best.

Joe Golem: Occult Detective #2 is gritty, witty, and dark. The characters fall into the more traditional aspects of the detective genre. Yet the supernatural elements help Joe and his cast stand out as they work their way through the mystery. It is a fun tale and an example of remarkable storytelling.

The action of the plot to save Ponyville and the strong character moments makes this comic a strong piece to read. Perrys and Garbowskas artwork sells the tender scenes of the characters and gives the characters a special bit of magic in their coloring. Andersons writing will bring all of the intrigue and heartfelt emotions with his sweet Zecora and Spike scenes. Pick up a copy today!

Rice and crew go a fine job making a story that is Pinkie Pie driven. There are plenty of funny moments as there are earnest heartfelt moments. It is a delightful slice of life piece.

Mystery Girl #1 is fair for a first issue. The story has much to offer in the future and could lead into something great. The ending of the issue may appear to be meek, but with Trine's new adventure across the world there is surely room for derring-do and danger.

Toil and Trouble #2 starts with a slow build up in the writing department and quickly raises in the middle to conflict. The artwork does offer much for the reader to look at and enjoy for its character designs and backgrounds. For casual readers, the comic is accessible without requiring heavy knowledge about Macbeth. For the Shakespeare lovers, the comic will happily add an extra bit of flavoring onto the classic Scottish play.
