Power Fantasy #3 gave a detailed breakdown of the timeline of the series’ events. One of these events in the timeline was the arrival of a traffic light. The text is called “Gestalt of Intellectuality from the dying world.” We have now arrived at the point of a story where the signal arrives on Earth and attempts to take over the hearts of a billion people. The timeline also notes that in question #10 the pyramid is in hell. It’s the context of where you’ll find yourself when you fall into problems this week. Power Fantasy #10 began in China…
Star Wars: Legacy of Vader has a truly unique concept. It’s a story that has roots in the past as Kylo Ren struggles to overcome the bondage of Legacy and explores the shadows that Darth Vader casts over the Galaxy. Part of Cairo’s quest sees him travel to the planets that shaped Vader’s history, including tattoos and Naboo. However, Star Wars: Legacy of Vader #6 makes a strange turn as Vani, Vader’s servant, seeks a challenge to his new master. That challenge? A Jedi who survived Order 66. This is a double-edged sword for so many reasons. Meanwhile, the idea…
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Apocalypse of the Legendary Age, Marvel will launch this October this year with the Apocalypse’s all-new X-Men epic. Teaches this game-changing storyline from last week, becoming a dystopian future that will shape the X-Men universe a decade ago in a form other than Doug Ramsey, and become the heir to the Apocalypse of Revelation, Apocalypse. The event begins with surprises: X-Men: Age of Revelation #0, Prelude issues with author Jed Mackay and artist Humberto Ramos. The selected comic shop has already received a limited “Shadow Drop” variant edition this week. Additional copies are…
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Ninja Turtles have been slowly exploring how both mutant and human New York City have changed in the wake of Jason Aaron’s teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Some of these changes were dramatic, others were more measured, but the changes remained constant. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Ninja #8 continues this thread. This is because it focuses on the pair of characters, an important part of IDW’s Turtleverse. “If It’s Not Broken” by Tom Waltz, Nelson Daniel and Ronda Pattinson were picked up after an Armageddon match, with Angels not armored to protect New York. But…
Since the opening of this new DC All-in Aquaman series, Jeremy Adams has skillfully set many questions for readers to keep in mind. When does Aquaman become “God’s Murderer” and what does that mean? Why did Dagon steal not only Atlantis, but Aquaman’s family and friends, whisper into the mysterious water realm known as Blue? What did Dagon do to Mera? I’m happy to report that I’m starting to answer these questions with this new question. DC In the final issue, we received a revelation that Than of the Wonder Twins was in a mysterious water container. Adams wastes no…
Often there won’t be a massive release later in the series, but that’s the case with Superior Avengers #4. The villain team from another era is thrown away with the Avengers, but their plans and the truth behind their persona will be fully revealed this week. It becomes a clear, satisfying turn in the story. Superior Avengers #4 opens with a flashback to Ghost’s Origins. Painted by Kyle Hotz, we soon see Annihilus becoming destroying everything, and the mother protects the child. In distractions, exchanges take place, leading to revelation of this issue. The story is then picked up from…
The Direct Continuation of Gotham by Gaslight – In the Crypton era, the first few pages of this comic attempt to quickly summarise six previous issues in a row. Unfortunately, there are many holes left to fail for those who haven’t read the former series. Even if we catch up with the previous series, the last comic, which ends last November, won’t benefit from this. So this is the first problem that feels like the climax of an unfinished story. Ignoring the strange divisions of the series into two titles, we will finally hold a Justice League-wide meeting at this…
Sometimes come manga that feel very packed with stories that make it seem like they’re not growing it beyond 12 issues. Suitable Case: Superman Treasury 2025: All #1 Heroes. Running 80 pages, which is by no means short, but the boy packs multiple heroes with many heroic moments, catching Superman against a logical threat within Canon. DC Comics is entering the finance business on this issue. So it’s an artist’s showcase, and Bruno Redondo can do it with Spades. This book knows well enough how to increase the size of pages, capture your interests and evoke a sense of grandeur.…
As I hinted in my first issue review last week, every robber, no matter how planned, will have unexpected elements. And in Gotham City Siren, worthy of Orbit #2, the trio of Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy and Catwoman must compete with not one but two unplanned speed bumps on the path to robbery glory. For one, the legendary “Conduit” Catwoman is not later, but a little alien child. Second, those who own the Lunaria Nightclub, the front line of the mysterious vault that houses the conduits, are famous for Justice League Baddie Despolo, a villain far outside of the female…
Absolute Superman is ready for the revelation of Absolute Superman #9 this week. That’s because Superman was attacked with a Kryptonite bullet and an Omega man rushed him to a private location. So far, we know that Peacemaker and La’s Argul are not good, but how about this group of guerrillas calling themselves good guys? If you pick it up from where you left off, Superman gets shot and bleed. It’s a fierce opening scene and reminds me of how difficult it is to pull a Kryptonite sh shotgun out of Superman. In the screams and efforts of Omega men,…
