I'm usually a fan of these kinds of books where a character from that universe is pitted against everyone else. It's not an extraordinary concept; the stories are always simple, but they don't overstay their welcome. It's meant to be a brief but fun, turn-your-brain-off type of book. My only real complaint with this one is that, for being the main selling point, Ninjak doesn't fight nearly enough more
Ninjak vs. The Valiant Universe Collected
A blistering battle royale!
Watch the live-action digital series, then jump headlong into the fight-fueled showdown of the century as acclaimed writer Eliot Rahal (The Paybacks) and red-hot artist Joe Bennett (Teen Titans, Deathstroke) reveal the full scope and adrenaline-drenched intensity of NINJAK VS. THE VALIANT UNIVERSE!
Long ago, this was my introduction to Jeff Lemire and Matt Kindt as writers. This gave me a very strong impression of both of them as writers, and honestly? It still holds up, especially so with the turn the Valiant Universe took since that era. Great introduction into the Universe too.

A battle ten millennia in the making is about to begin...
The Eternal Warrior has protected the Earth for more than 10,000 years. A master of countless weapons and long forgotten martial arts, he is guided by the Geomancers - those who speak for the Earth. During his long watch, the Eternal Warrior has failed three times. Each time, th...

In part 2 of the 2-part "Redemption" storyline, Superman is about to become mankind's doom! The real control behind the power Superman has been fighting is revealed, and Superman will need help from an unexpected place in order to stop this dangerous new threat!
Superman is an ideal vessel for this kind of story. It goes out of its way to challenge how people view faith and morality, and does so without antagonizing religion. I appreciate when a comic can be this bold with its themes, so huge credit to Nicieza for executing so well on this premise.

In part 1 of the 2-part "Redemption" storyline, Superman travels the world from the wilds of Colorado to the plains of Africa to battle an uncontrollable power who draws their energy from an unbelievable source!
It's Dwayne McDuffie writing Superman. Need I say more?
Action Comics #847
In this companion issue to the "Last Son" storyline, Ma and Pa Kent discuss the disappearance of Superman during his battle with General Zod. Pa recalls an adventure he and Superman had years ago involving a trip they took together deep into space - and their frightening encounter with a Sun-Eater!
From start to finish, this book is fun, funny, and violent. All qualities worthy of the Main Man. Both Kyle Starks and Kyle Hotz are now on my radar.

GET READY FOR THE SLEEZIEST, SCUMMIEST SPECIAL TO GRACE THE DCU, YA BASTICH! FEETAL'S GIZZ! Just when you thought it was safe to go back into outer space, the freakazoids at DC Comics ambush you with the scummiest comic book this side of Uranus! Get ready for the most skull-crunching, crotch-punting, and excrement asteroid-filled comic of the year!...
A fun and inoffensive romp for Shang-Chi that works for one issue. I was entertained enough. I can see a bit of promise in CM Punk as a comic writer.
Master of Kung Fu #126
Shang-Chi's Day Off Part 1 (OF 1)
The Marvel Universe is full of fighters: brawlers, scrappers, weapons experts, mystical kung fu virtuosi. But there's only one martial artist skilled enough to be called the greatest. SHANG-CHI has been a pinch hitter for a long time, stepping in for Avengers missions when no one else would do, but when no one ...
Solid, fun little one-shot story for Shang-Chi. Nothing mind-blowing, but it definitely has me interested in seeing Alyssa Wong doing a mini.
The Legend of Shang-Chi #1
Deadly Hands vs. Deadly Blades!
• Someone has been stealing artifacts of WMD potential.
• It's up to Shang-Chi to find this person and stop them.
• But is he prepared to go toe-to-toe with Lady Deathstrike?!
Parental Advisory
For a One World Under Doom tie-in, I'm not opposed to the pitch. Doom 2099 assembles a group of heroes to combat current-day Doom and prevent his future from happening. Cool. The problem is, Frank Tieri generally just isn't a great writer, so a cool idea like this ends up being wasted because of that. I like the characters they use, but they do nothing here for me. There's really nothing that stan more
Doomed 2099 #1
The Future is Doomed! The world is Doom's...but does that include the world that is yet to be? A coalition from the future - including OLD MAN LOGAN, RACHEL SUMMERS PHOENIX, BISHOP, COSMIC GHOST RIDER, THE MAESTRO and DEATHLOK say otherwise. But will the arrival of Doom 2099 change the odds for the new Sorcerer Supreme? Is he there to back his past...
