Matt Etheridge Comic Reviews

A fascinating take on a less than familiar aspect of of one of the best known tales of the Bible sees Biblical live up to it's claim of being all about the story and not the religion

A strong follow up to the fantastic first arc of the must read book from a bold new talent

A controversial offering from Prince and Amour but one certainly worth a look.

A very worthy addition to the family

A little disappointing but with the promise of exciting events ahead!

A new arc begins for Judge Dredd this month and with it the series pauses for a much needed breath.

One of the things that sets IDW's Dredd aside from the pack and above the rehashed greatest hits that many have offered the American market before is the bravery to have some real length to the story arcs and here we seem to be finally coming to the end of a tale that has been almost two years in the telling but remains accessible to new readers throughout. They will for sure be twists ahead though and anyone choosing to follow along will not be disappointed.

A promising begining from Messrs Smith, Critchlow and Lee

Smith's tale continues to interest and excite as Cass delves into the deep underbelly of Mega City One

Solid installment in this new US take on Anderson

A terrific finale to a new take on Anderson that will hopefully continue to grow under these creators guidance for some time to come

A terrifically creepy return for the scariest show of the 90's!

A confident debut from a terrific collaboration

As with the series debut issue The October Faction #2 has such treats on offer no real horror fan will be able to resist.

A lower key issue for the Family Alan this month offers insight into who are protagonists are until events take a sudden and dramatic turn...

Excellent addition to the family of 2000AD icons over at IDW

Johnson and Shasteen are a safe pair of hands for IDW's continued adventures of the rebooted Enterprise

Whilst Ellison's original source may have it's issues the oportunity to see it presented in such loving fasion is not to be missed and it will be interesting to see how the remainder of this much loved story plays out.

The Tiptons continue to hit it out of the park with their adaptation of Ellison's masterwork but it is Woodward that really shines this month

Deceptively original and grandly ambitious

When it comes to civilisations on the brink of extinction due to a dying star, the unifying foundation tends to be one of ancient civilisations that have risen and fallen. If the sun's dying it's probably really, really old and if the unfortunate inhabitants of its satellites are sophisticated enough to escape, that's probably because they've been around a long time too " but there is no sense of that history here. Maybe that will be revealed as the story unfolds"

Series like this don't come along too often

An epic finale to an outstanding mini-series

Solid stuff as Dixon once again lays the groundwork for a thrilling ride through the icy wastes
