True that. Still, if delays mean quality final product, I can wait for new issues of Doomsday Clock. Rushed events, like No Justice or this garbage, while on time, don't offer anything to the reader. Especially this one - it's just pure trash, and has been since #1.

Manor Black
From the creators of Harrow County and The Sixth Gun comes this gothic horror fantasy about a family of sorcerers in crisis. Roman Black is the moribund patriarch of a family of powerful sorcerers. As his wicked and corrupt children fight over who will take the reins of Manor Black and become representative of the black arts, Roman adopts a young m...
I am really over DC's event comics that are not what DC promises. The reveal feels convoluted and outside the character of the murderer. DC continues to get a pass on these books that are supposed to rewrite the status quo but never do. Doomsday Clock never is out in a timely manner and we have long passed the promise of the importance of Dr. Manhattan being a major part of the DC Universe. Dark K more

I truly love this comic and all that it is about. I wish it came out more often.
Jook Joint #2
Tonight at the Jook Joint, the blood runs as hot as the music as Mahalia and her coven face an attack at the bar. Meanwhile, young mother Heloise has the chance to get away with murder. Will she use it, and take revenge on her sadistic husband?

This series is just not that good. It has gone from ok to barely ok from start to finish. The story is basic and straight forward. Logan was brought back to be Wolverine in a comic world where I thought we had already filled the void. X-23 was a great Wolverine and Old Man Logan was fitting the more mature material better. Most would be better served to read a synopsis and just pick up when the ne more

Parental Advisory
Kelly Thompson is the clear correct choice to give Captain Marvel her fresh start. The book has the right tone and really sets up the character in context. I know that the mission is to Make Carol Danvers more earthbound but I do help there is a balance made with her space adventures. Kelly Thompson writes a true jumping on point and Carman Nunez Carnero really supports with quality art. Kelly sta more

In the first arc of Avengers, the dark celestial arc, Carol has short hair. She grew out her hair in the Life of Captain Marvel miniseries, which this series picks up from. The second arc of Avengers, World Tour, has her with long hair. So we can assume that the continuity is Dark Celestials -> Life of Captain Marvel -> This series' first arc -> World Tour. The reason for the ask in this issue is because she took a sabbatical during Life of Captain Marvel, which took place over months.
Bitter Root has become my favorite monthly series to read. If ever there was an Image book with huge potential for TV and film options this is it. David Walker and Chuck Brown have written the greatest book of their career.
This book has something for everyone with characters and a tone unlike anything else anyone is writing. Sanford Greene continues the high level of art in this book.
