I've enjoyed this series so far, but the very short runs and subsequent temporary abandonment of the storyline for another is beginning to annoy me. Add in the deliberately confusing story where it's difficult to tell what is going on. If the series doesn't turn it around, I'll be dropping it.

It looks great, but...
Apparently pulp entertainment is all "racist, sexist, colonial, imperial nonsense" which is "hard to stomach at best" so the team present a story where virtually all the characters are women from every conceivable cultures (except the chronically underrepresented one legged eskimo of mixed heritage). The editorial is littered with extremist rubbish.
All part of the war on the white male and it shows once again that the liberal has nothing new or original to offer. He has to take past glories, and twist them to his own warped mindset.
Obviously I'm out.
It looks great though.

As with Sabrina, the delays had made me determined to drop this title. I cannot. It's just too good.
Here we have Reggie, selfish and nasty, being given true character. It's possible to feel sorry for him right up to the very end of the issue.
Brilliant stuff. If only it was published more frequently.

Afterlife With Archie #10

The first misstep in this series. Athough the story is entertaining enough, it had nothing to do with the main story and is really just a generic vampire tale. It's so clumsy that I wonder if it was supposed to have been the first issue of a completly new series that Archie gave up on, and bolted onto Afterlife in order to bridge the gap until the next issue of the real story.

An entertaining series comes to an end, and it didn't end quite as predictably as I had feared.

The far left political establishment that rules our entertainment industry should keep this in mind.

A pointless comic with poor art. It owes its existence to Marvel's attempts to flood the market with comics. Here we have the tired old "everyone hates mutants" theme lifted from the X-Men and applied to the Inhumans. Add lashings of political correctness, "diversity", absurd dialogue while drawing the once beautiful Crystal as a boy, and you have a typical example of Marvel's output in 2016.

Well now. We have a "diverse team of creators composed of differing genders, gender identities, ethnic backgrounds and sexual orientations". So focused they are on their liberal progaganda, they forgot the contents.This is a generic superhero story with nothing to set it apart from the pack.
I cannot recommend this to anyone unless they are happy to pay for propaganda. Me? I'm signed up for one more issue but unless a miracle happen, it'll be my last issue.

According to the editorial, "Each issue of Alters is read by at least six different trans consultants". If I was a cynic I'd say that they make up the bulk of the readership of the most politically correct comic ever created. As I'm not a cynic, I won't. I'll just avoid a comic created for propaganda, not entertainment.

Happily I ready this in a shop and didn't have to waste any money on it. This comic illustates why Marvel have got themselves into a bit of a mess.

I feel DC have dropped the ball here. After a successful film, people trying the comic for the first time will find nothing from the film. No Atlantis, no undersea action, no supporting characters. Just a usual generic superhero-who-has-lost-his memory type of story.

Great stuff, it is rare to find writing and art both firing on all cylinders at the same time. The current 'event' has failed to derail the fun, unlike in many other titles. The only flaw was the rather rushed 'temptation of Felicia'. This could have been extended and perhaps could be a future storyline.

I keep on giving Marvel another chance, but they seem incapable of producing decent comics anymore.
What they need is a DC style "Rebirth". Dump all the devisive 'equality' crap, the sexuality issue, the feminist angle, the multi-part crossover events, the constant relauching of series, the massive amount of monthly books, and concentrate on getting back to the core characters, good stories, no political or cultural angle and maybe they will be worth reading again.
Marvel are not listening to anyone except the diversity and equality freaks.

The section with Mera and Arthur was great, but the rest of the comic is a disjointed collection of of sub-standard other stories. DC needs to get this series to focus on one story and develop it from there. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. There are far too many characters for one comics and more are being introduced with every new issue. This is madness.

Don't keep rewriting characters history - just stick with it and please can an ongoing series be that. And don't get me going on the diversity fad. Just publish good stories and people will buy comics.

Good Lord. I came across this by complete accident, and I'm glad I did.
The art is weird but beautiful, every panel a minor masterpiece. The story is unusual and the characters are all interesting. They're not the usual heroes, heroines, and villains normally found in comics, but a fascinating collection of eccentics.
I hope it's not too long until the next in the series.

Love Everlasting #4
January 9, 2023
|

If you are going to set a WW1 story behind the lines in 1915, then at least do some research. I assume the absurdly multiracial group visiting the cafe were British. I can assure you that they would all have names such as Tom, Dick, Bert and Harry. Certainly not "Dane" or the other ridiculous names mentioned. It is about time the story went somewhere as it is beginning to drag.
The artwork continues to impress.

Not exactly original, is it? We have the obligatory female led storyline and a group of freaky multi-racial kids seeking a monster hunter. It's all be done before. I'll give it one more issue in case it surprises me.

Lucy Claire: Redemption #2
February 8, 2020

Very poor and lacks any sort of originality. Awful dialogue - and it is an absolute outrage that our multi-racial band doesn't included a one-legged, transsexual of Eskimo heritage. They are grossly underrepresented in popular media. Dropped.

Very disappointing. From an interesting premise, we quickly fall into the normal patterns for a modern comic. All white people are racist and evil, all step fathers are rapists, rich people are bad, poor people are good. You know the sort of thing, it's rampant in comics, and here is no exception.

This comic is beautifully drawn, and the story has a rare depth to it. The story doesn't advance far but some background information is provided. I do feel that it's going down the route of the 'deliberately confusing' variety of comic book. There is also the lurking threat of clumsy but fashionable "diversity" hanging over the comic via its letters page. However I'm intrigued enough to stay aboard.

I really thought DC would have made a better effort with this. Instead it's yet another piece of liberal propaganda with the obligatory "diversity" and feminism.

A strange one this. It is seemingly aimed at girls, and nothing wrong with that. The story is quite unusual, not your normal superhero fair. What i did not like was the art. Most of the time this is presented in the now fairly standard 'cartoony' manner, but every now and then Hellcat is drawn as a weird looking toddler.
Marvel would be more honest in making this a mini-series rather than an "ongoing". I will be suprised if this title makes it to 12 issues.

I've bought Savage Dragon on and off for 20 years, but this is the end. Following on from his recent tasteless and purile depiction of female genitalia, we now have an insane depiction of the current US president. I am British, and have little interest in defending him. However, I believe in democracy, and I do not believe Trump supporters are the racist lunatics depicted here.
We have a rich liberal (Larsen) telling people divisive and complete lies. If right wingers issued such hate-filled propaganda, they would be (literally) lynched by the leftist media and their zealots.

Silver Surfer #1
January 24, 2016
|

One of only two Marvel titles in my pull list is this series. Quirky, colourful and entertaining. It is a nice change to see such a thing nowadays. It's a far cry from the worthy but dull Surfer of the past.
My only gripe is the series restarting with #1. There was no need for this. Nothing has changed from the previous volume.

A satisfactory end to this classic run. With Marvel running empty on creativity, we are unlikely to see its like again. This was the last marvel title on my pull list, and had managed to stay fairly clear of the liberal preaching. I am unlikely to buy a Marvel title regularly until they change their ways.

Very hard to keep up with a series that has 5 months between issues. There must be a good chance of only two issues in 2019, despite the "bi-monthly" schedule. The team really need to get their act together.
That said, issue 14 was an excellent issue. This third act has been the strongest to date.
It loses a full point for the ridiculous schedule.

Surely it doesn't take seven months to publish a comic? If the creators show no commitment to their product, I'm damned if I will. The unprofessional comment on the last page of this issue just sums up their attitude. Dropped.

Well I gave it a chance. Two issues in and it's clear this isn't for me. We have an English victorian leading lady of mixed race (what else COULD she be?) who despises the upper classes and wicked imperialists. She does whatever she is told by an evil vampire rabbit, while spouting every liberal cliché under the sun. All this, and the crappiest art possible.

As soon as I buy an issue of this, I find out it's to be cancelled. Why can DC let an "ongoing" series do that? This cynical rebooting every other year, with a bunch of no. 1's for the fans will backfire one of these days.
I rather like the comic itself. Not much went on, but the characters seemed to be fleshed out and the art was good. I would have put it on my pull list, but there is no point now.

Starfire #10
March 20, 2016

I didn't intend to buy this comic with its impending cancellation looming. However the magnificent cover hooked me in. The contents are good too - good old fashioned colourful fun, and even a little 'cheesecake' that has slipped through DC's PC filter. No doubt the upcoming "Rebirth" will put paid to such things and Kori will end up with a completely new personality. Not that I'm a misery of course.
|

Starfire #11

I've stuck with this title despite the imminent cancellation, and this is another fun issue. Nothing much happens but so what? I hope DC don't sweep Kori's character developments away at "Rebirth" but I think it's pretty much inevitable.

What a great series this was. Funny, sweet, relaxed. It's a real shame to see it go, and no doubt the character development will all be wasted when Rebirth starts. We need more comics like starfire.

I normally ignore ther tiresome Marvel formula of "kill" hero. Replace with a "diverse" character for a while. Resurect hero.
That said, I'll try this for a while as I've always liked Clea and she has been neglected for too long.
When the Doctor is resurrected, I hope Clea sticks around.

The latest in a long line of #1's is better than some, but the character has been profoundly wrecked over the last few years. The decision to change her name from Ms Marvel to Captain Marvel, The butch look, the short hair... Get her looking like a woman and get her back into the classic black and gold costume and perhaps Marvel can still save Carol Danvers.

This looks like it's going to be a great series. The only thing I didn't like was the now standard "strong female character" who - bizarrely - cross-dresses. There is no way that she would have behaved like this in the 1580's. She would have conformed or have been burnt as a witch. She is also not that likeable - reacting very strangely to tragic news! However, I will stick with this title because of the magnificent artwork.

Not sure that we needed the lesbian sex scene, but the story's pace is impressively unhurried. The artwork continues to be magnificent. Marvel would be well advised to poach this bloke as on so many books he'd blow their 'third-raters' out of the water.

The Shadow Glass Vol. 1

An impressive series, cut short as a series, but now appearing as a graphic novel. On the negative side, we had a foolish and very unsympathetic heroine but on the plus side, we had some of the best comic artwork I've seen in decades.
The plot was unhurried and generally well researched, though the modern craze of women dressing as men would have ended with a trip to the bonfire in the Elizabethan age. If you are going to try for an authentic and historically accurate plot, modern day political correctness and feminism ought to be left out.
Nevertheless, I would like to see more from Mr Fell.

I really thought I'd like this series, and waited for this hardback. Unfortunately the story is pretentious, shallow crap. The art, binding and design is excellent, and deserves much better.

A great cover and price. I like the newsprint paper and wish more publishers would use it. The art was quite good but the story was rather a let down, being slow and plodding.

Tinseltown #2
June 25, 2018

Obligatory feminist storyline. What is wrong with just telling a non-PC story? It seems that if you don't build in left wing preaching, you don't get published.
On the other hand, I like the newsprint format and the artwork is ok.

Some of the military detail is a little sloppy, but otherwise this is an unusual subject for a comic. We start in April 1945 with Germany on the brink of total defeat, and move onto the unleasing if a Nazi secret weapon... the art is rather confusing and some of the battle scenes are way over the top but it's a good start.

The extreme violence is too much, but there is no denying this is a very good comic.

This alternate history concept is extremely good. There is a sense of doom hanging over its world.

I wonder if my fellow reviewer, Mr Mouser, has actually read these issues? The Germans are portrayed as evil maniacs and never in a good light.
Nevertheless I was actually worried about the German battleship going up against the American version. He was just too good to be true and we ended the fight with typically over the top bloodshed.

Uncanny Inhumans #6
March 20, 2016

The "Uncanny Inhumans" is a lot better than its sister title this month. The art is stronger and the dialogue somewhat more believeable. It's just a shame it's so like the X-Men... the Inhumans were always strong characters, so turning them into X-Men clones is a bit of a shame. However, the story was fairly interesting and I may try the comic again next month.

Vampirella #1
March 3, 2016
|
|
If you are going to strip an character of its iconic costume on the alter of political correctness and replace it with something Father Christmas's chief elf's daughter might wear, at least get the writing right. This title doesn't - and it's an incoherent shambles. It's not all bad - the art is rather good.
This isn't Vampi at all, and I will await her return once this wretched effort has failed.
|
|
|
Vampirella #2
May 1, 2016
|
|
Why Dynamite think it's good business practise to get hold of an iconic charater, and then change it to another character altogether is beyond me. This is PC garbage at it's worst, even though "Vampirella" does appear in her old costume for much of the issue. If this series makes it to issue six, I will eat issue 7.

Not sure about this. And it's a shame to see Vampi well covered up - typical for the new puritan era we find ourselves in.

|

Vampirella: The Dark Powers #2
February 6, 2021
|

I like the writing. Abnett is always reliable. However the artwork is patchy. I don't really understand how Vampi can be so covered up but is allowed to have her backside hanging out. And don't get me started on the cynical ploy on the cover with Vampi in her classic costume...
|
|
|
Vampirella: The Dark Powers #3
March 12, 2021

Once again I like the writing, but the artwork is patchy to say the least. I particularly dislike how Vampi looks, surely this should be something they MUST get right on a Vampirella book.

Venus #2
January 30, 2016
|
|
I don't think a professional crew of scientists and military would have time for the quips and jokes as they supposedly battle to save their habitat, and there seems little urgency to do this before their oxygen runs out. However, it's fairly entertaining and ends on a massive cliffhanger.

Venus #4

So this title goes out with a whimper. There is just no way the crew, stranded without hope of recovery on Venus, would have sat around drinking, quipping and fighting. A good idea, but poorly written.

Another strong issue. I am beginning to wish that the plot would speed up a bit though, it is a very slow burn. I would also like to see more of Ellen. It seems like she and the Spirit have had little time together, which is odd considering their long separation.

An ok story, but for me, ruined by the feminist propaganda screed from the creators. Although they profess to love diversity, they and their kind do not. They want everything to be as they wish, and are happy to pour hatred and scorn on anyone who opposes them. I wish we could have had the old style Witchblade back, from an age where comics were entertainment instead of an opportunity to spread an ideology.
