I crown this series as the sexiest comic book in the history of comic books. Can you name one that's steamier? Cloonan and Lotay lit these pages on fire with a compelling script and otherworldly art. This was profane divinity at its best. Lotay's juxtaposition of two distinct visual styles was absolutely masterful.

After two really wonderful issues the finale of this mini-series careened into Wackadoodleville as Snyder once again went over the top with the gore and the incredulous reveal of the secret of the Haunted Mine. It's not this series was bad but rather disappointing as it wrapped up a bit too swiftly while Snyder once again crossed the line from grounded into loony tunes.

A comic about a dating app that basically hooks you up with whomever you're interested in, so it's pure science fiction. Maybe they should have put this on a spaceship instead of a college, might've worked better. You're probably hooked in by the chick with the nipple tape on the cover but just like any dating app once you match and open the book to what's inside Ms. Tape, you realize you're deali A comic about a dating app that basically hooks you up with whomever you're interested in, so it's pure science fiction.

When the world of Superhero Comics pretty much sucks you know the marketplace is ripe for a story of an 'AI Robot Hooker and the D-Bag that made her!' While the Big Poo (The Big 2) poop out trash every week I think comics need to lean into more erotic/love/relationship/sci-fi stuff and this one by Sarah Cho fits the bill. It's not great, I mean you're looking at a 'poor girl who yearns to seek out When the world of Superhero Comics pretty much sucks you know the marketplace is ripe for a story of an 'AI Robot Hooker and the D-Bag that made her!'

Umm, does this take place in '1930s First Appearance Batman Land' or current day with soul sucking smart phones? I can't tell because Grampa is drawing Detective Comics #27 Bats but there's hashtags and viral videos. C'mon Grampa! I dig Grampa's art. I don't know about Grampa's villain though. Crytoon? A dude that's crying all the time, like, tears just flowing everywhere as he's fighting?

Interesting that this review site has yet to have any actual approved 'Critic Reviews' of this book. I suppose they deemed it irrelevant. Look, I love me some Sean Murphy, I can look at his art layouts and distinct linework all day long. His White Knight Universe is the best Alt Bat Universe ever and his original stories like Tokyo Ghost and Punk Rock Jesus are instant classics.

It's been a while since I went on a date with a Wonder Woman main title. Double Dubz and I have had a contentious relationship ever since Azzarello and Chiang (Chiangarello's Magical Dubz Run) left the title about 10 years ago. I've checked in on her every month or so since then and I've always put the book back on the rack where it belongs.

I assume that because it's already on its 3rd printing that this book is selling like hotcakes in the Depression, and it should. This is a beautifully drawn and magically written tale from the duo behind the equally astounding 'Many Deaths of Laila Starr' which was a truly breathtaking series from a couple of years ago.

Phenomenal start. Filipe Andrade might be the most underrated artist currently working in comics. He does a masterful job working a variety of colors into nearly every page, which creates something that looks unique while immediately placing the reader into the loud, bright streets of India. The narrative from Ram V also has the potential to be something really special. I loved the Anthony Bourdai Phenomenal start.

Uggh. Blah. Dude. What is this? What have you done to Double D??? If Daredevil were the housing market this issue would be the December 2008 issue; a major crash and burn. Saladin Ahmed, usually an amazing writer, seems to have been bitten by the Marvisney 'We will ruin your story' virus. And the art? It looks like it was run through a Daredevil art simulator.

Anthology/Lightning Quick Short Story books suck, they're never satisfying. What makes this suck even more is that the creators here are so amazing along with the art that you're like 'Wait, WTF, it's over already?'

I think it's time for us all to admit that Dynamite Comics is more interested in providing T&A to horny comic geeks than actually delivering an amazing story. My goodness, everywhere you look, side boobs here, crouching tush in a bikini there, not that there's anything wrong with that, praise be for butts and boobies, but put them on a riveting plot please?

The White Knight Universe was supposed to end - and then it didn't. DC probably realized that these Bat Books are the best Bat Books on the shelves so they extended the whole she-bang. Now Murphy the Great is working on White Knighting 'Wonder Dubs' and the JLA while his wife (who also writes steamy erotica, grrr) and this Clay McSchnooglydoogly dude writes this Joker Kids thing with art by Mirka The White Knight Universe was supposed to end - and then it didn't.

Disappointing effort on what could have been an innovative premise based on regular people being infused with the energy of their astrological sign after the constellation disappears. It turned into what felt like a cheezy 90s cartoon with mind numbing dialogue and a corny cliffhanger. Is there a Captain Planet backstory?

Zdarsky is a good writer, but he continues to do things that are inexplicable. DD cuts out his eyes in front of the Stromwyns, who don't know that DD has radar sense, so why would they make a deal with a powerless blind man? DD enters the meeting declaring he's not there for revenge, but then takes (illegal) actions that show he definitely was.

It's been tough latching onto new and riveting series these days. Sometimes all it takes is drop dead gorgeous art to pull you in and that's what happened with Nick Marinkovich's stunning lines in this issue; it's worth the price of admission alone. As for the story? As mentioned by Wizard of Gore in his review it's not reinventing the wheel but it spins nicely along the visuals.

Once again Kindt drops a Dark Horse mini-series meant to upsell us on something else. Mind MGMT 'Bootleg' , a yawnfest, offered us a board game at the end.

I'm all for wackadoodle bonkers in a comic but the story and overarching narrative of this book seems to have gotten lost. Liu admits to writing as 'flying by the seat of her pants'. If you look up the origin of that phrase it means 'flying without the ability to communicate or fully plan things out'; yeah that sounds about right. No doubting Takeda's glorious art which is gallery worthy but this I'm all for wackadoodle bonkers in a comic but the story and overarching narrative of this book seems to have gotten lost.

I mean, who hasn't fantasized about a half naked chick wearing a large Gopher Head busting into your tent to ravish you in the middle of the night? Besides the 'Freaky Forest Clan' this issue had zero connection to when they actually left the initial narrative back in issue #6. This series is going nowhere fast, either wrap it up or write the dang story RoseyBoss! Full take at:
