Spread (2014)
Ten years ago, we dug too deep. We unleashed something ancient that couldn't be controlled. Something that couldn't be stopped, twisting everything it touched into more of itself. The Spread. Humanity was nearly destroyed before we found a way to slow the Spread to a crawl. Now, deep inside the quarantined zone, one man has found the key to stoppin...

This was awesome! Can't wait for the next issue. Docked half a point for leaving pepperoni behind...
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time #1
A brand new mini-series from Paul Allor, Erik Burnham and some of the best IDW TMNT artists ever! The Turtles become unstuck in time and go spinning into the past! First stop: the prehistoric age, where they are far from the most dangerous reptiles around! Will the Turtles be able to find their way home without damaging history?
I will give it one more issue to see how it goes. This one is all about the setting. The only thing you learn about either of the characters is their names. There needs to be some good character building or something to keep me intrigued past the next issue.

Great artwork and writing. Started out a bit slow with a lot of dialogue but pulled together for a great first issue. Will be interesting to see where it goes from here!
Vampirella #1
The Blank Authentix Cover features the same great story, but a blank cover that you can get your favorite artist to draw! Blank Authentix Cover only available for issue #1!
I like the ideas and the writing. I'm not a fan of how the art style changes so much half way through. I think I will pick up one more issue but if this continues the only way I will keep it on my pull list is if the writing is top-notch.
Rise of the Magi #1
A small black sphere contains all the magic that exists past, present, and future. Without it, two worlds would not survive. The sphere has been protected for centuries by a spell that was believed unbreakable. Asa Stonethrow, a common man in the world of magic, discovers the spell has been breached and a small chip of the black sphere has been sto...
This one seems to be all over the place when it comes to quality. At times it's great and then there are the cringe-worthy moments. I'm going to give this one more issue to see if it improves. If not I will probably drop this series.
Inhuman #2
• New Inhumans are transformed every day as the Terrigen Mist spreads around the world.
• Queen Medusa finds herself face to face with Captain America, and it doesn't go well.
• Who is Lash and what does he want with the new Inhumans?
This issue is good but a little conversation heavy. Also Peter Parker is a jerk.
Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man #2
PART TWO OF THE BIGGEST SPIDER-MAN STORY OF THE YEAR "REVIVAL"
• After the mind-blowing reveal at the end of the first issue, miles life will NEVER be the same again.
• With SHIELD gone, the biggest villain in SPIDER-MAN history is out and nothing can stop him.
• Miles has made a huge choi...
This get a 8/10. I am actually intentionally bringing the score down 1 full point from what I think this deserves. I am doing that because I will admit to being a Dresden Files fan from the books and that is probably skewing my view of this comic. If you liked the previous Jim Butcher comics, the books, or even the short lived television series, then you owe it yourself to pick this up.
The Dresden Files: War Cry #1
Four months have passed since the events depicted in Dead Beat, Jim Butcher's New York Times-bestselling 7th novel in the Dresden Files series. A war is raging between the vampire forces of the Red Court and the White Council-a war the wizards are losing. So desperate are the Council that they've dragooned the experienced and the outcast to reinfor...
Not a perfect comic, but close. I found this issue to really pull me in more than the first. I'm loving how accessible this comic is for someone new to comics like me. While I haven't been buying comics for very long this is at the top of my "I can't wait for the next issue!" list.
Cyclops #2
• A father and son mend fences the best way possible - on an intergalactic road trip!
• Stop one? The spectacular resort world of Dixzit, where Scott flirts with aliens. Badly!
• But what's the dark secret of Dixzit? Greg Rucka (PUNISHER) and Russel Dauterman (Nightwing) uncover the clues!

Great plot and characters. I love the pacing and the action scenes and writing are both excellent.
