Dylan Surmonte Comic Reviews

Aquaman (2016-) #41 resuscitates this series with a featurette on Queen Mera and her heroic journey to save Atlantis and New York City. A fresh take on the odysseyof a wonderful woman, this issue of Aquaman captures something really beautiful.

Errand Boys is a must-read if you are a lover of comics, the cosmos, or just enjoy great art and writing. Beautifully executed panel after panel, this story has a lot of potential and momentum going forward into the next issue.

The Flash (2018-) #55 begins a new adventure while simultaneously drawing from important elements of Barry Allen's past. An incredible issue through and through, this story complements the end of Barry's last story while also evoking wild curiosity of what's to come.

Jurgens's story continues wayward and with Perkins's art, Hi-Fi's colors, and Sharpe's letters and sounds, he successfully continue to construct an epic story.

This issue sheds light onto Daphne's past like the sun rising over some dark land. Captured beautifully by Pat Olliffe's and Tom Palmer's ghoulishly gruesome art, and by Keith Giffen's and J. M. DeMatteis wicked words, Scooby Apocalypse (2016-) #30 is like a new modern myth of Orpheus and Eurydice.

Supergirl (2016-) #23 starts slow with a lot of exposition, then picks up the pace as Supergirl begins her breakout of the Green Lantern Corps. Well-written and drawn wonderfully, the only thing that could have improved this comic would be some more depth to the secondary characters, as well as another setting or two to display how Supergirl truly is on a cosmic quest across the galaxy for the truth about Krypton's destruction.

Teen Titans (2016-) #23 bends and breaks friendships before rebuilding them come issue's end. A crazy cool story complemented by animated artwork, this is one of the best issues of Teen Titans (2016-) thus far.

Titans (2018-) #26 continues to follow the teenage team of young heroes as they progress through their current mission while also progressing as individuals and novice superheroes. A wonderful story including great words by Abnett, the only thing that would make this comic better would be more artistic execution from Peeples.

Titans (2016-) #27 is a comic that works for new readers because of all the setup for future stories stup, as well as the re-introductions and in-depth looks into each character's mindset and attitude when faced with hardship and adversity. The concept of loss and friendship is strong through and through, and I think the success of this issue will continue to drive this series forward in the weeks and months to come.
