Erik Knapp Comic Reviews

Captain Planet and the Planeteers #1 is a good start that establishes itself as not necessarily your parent's version of Captain Planet and the Planeteers but also not as edgy as some of these recent reboots of childhood favorites.

For what I would call a "filler story, Action Comics #1085 is a nice and compelling effort. I'm interested in what Kilg%re wants with refreezing the arctic shelf but if anyone can get to the bottom of the mystery, it's Superman.

Please get this story going. The elements are there for an excellent story but it is starting to get self-indulgent and has already gone on too long. There is so much wasted space. There is setting a mood and then there is maybe not knowing how to finish a story, this is getting perilously close to looking like the latter.

Green Arrow 2024 Annual #1 is a very solid and satisfying ending to a seminal run. Between this and Green Arrow #17 the stage is set for Green Arrow to continue being one of DC's most complex and interesting characters.

Excellent and clever art, good characterization and a good story. Having said that, something needs to happen to break it out of the predictable rut it is in danger of falling into.

There is a lot of story left to be told in this beautifully rendered book and I'm excited to see how it all comes together.
