Do You Even Comic Book Comic Reviews

This issue got me excited for Assassin's Creed content for the first time in a long time.

Despite my problem with the format, I still find this story very enjoyable.

I'm really looking forward to how this whole game plays out over the next six or so weeks. It's definitely a roller coaster ride worth reading

You'll be back because this one will pull you back with its tightly woven story and some of the very best visuals I've ever seen.

Babyteeth #8 is a slower issue in the series, focused on the Ritter family and explaining some of the universe's rules.

Representation like this matters, not only for the people who live these lives but for people like me who seek to gain perspective into these kinds of situations.

Cap and his small band of rebels resolutely forge ahead in their mission to take down King Babbington; while two familiar faces, Hulk and The Thing, emerge as unwitting enforcers of King Babbington's ruthless rule in the tenacious Captain America #699.

Captain America, at his best and most authentically told, meets the reader in whatever chaos surrounds them and reminds them that they have the tools to bring justice, fairness, and dignity where it is needed.

Death of Loveis an interesting concept that is executed with problems.

If we don't get a Midnight Sons book out of this then Marvel is messing up.

I'm impressed, and of course, Gail Simone did not disappoint.

Infinity Countdown Prime#1 should have kicked off theInfinity Countdownmini-series. It introduces all the major players and is an interesting story in its own right. It's made better by the decision not to try and shove Infinity Stones 101 into the story via awkward and clumsy dialogue but to tell it instead as prose.

Azzarello and Risso have created a compelling environment that feels like an old-school crime movie"that just happens to have a werewolf or two in it.

The New Age of Heroes was meant to put artistic talent front and center. Its results have been hit and miss. In a backhanded way,New Challengers#1 is a great example of its mission statement. If not for Kubert's abilities I'm uncertain whether this issue would entertain at all thanks to the sheer volume of dry text in play. On story and dialogue alone I am not at all compelled to explore the next issue; the art, though, resonates and may be sufficient to check outNew Challengers#2. Perhaps by then the script will catch up with the visuals and prove equally compelling.

The term "funny book" isn't terribly applicable to the vast majority of comics anymore.Sideways#1 isn't funny in the sense that it's a comedy, but it is a fun comic book.

Sideways#2 feels like more of an origin issue (or key piece of an origin arc) thanSideways#1. The monologue from Derek's mom fills in details the readers didn't have. Villains get introduced. Rules and consequences to Derek's powers are hinted at. All that said,Sideways#2 still leads with fun and is a page-turner on that basis alone.

I will most certainly be returning for the second issue of this series, and not just because we need more reviews on the site.The Dead Hand's final page compels me to.

Jane Foster got her wish- it was one Hell of a fight, for one Hell of a Thor.

The earthier, more strangely viscous style of Perez is a great contrast to Bartel's more airbrushed art; his depiction of Malekith is appropriately pointy and almost Joker-esque. It's a shame we won't be seeing more of him or Bartel, but this issue is a stop-gap, a brief breather before the next chapter, which promises to be face-meltingly epic.

The Titans need each other in a way that the Avengers or the Justice League don't, and nothing proves that better than Roy's fall.

It's entertaining and has some solid foundations for an enjoyable character-driven experience that I'm looking forward to continuing next month.
