HangingManga artist: Aaron RostLetter: Becca CarreyPublisher: Strangers Publishing / $18June 2025 The youngest of the three siblings is the one who can see why. of course. He is not the first child heading into the sky. Bombs hanging over the city, hanging, but no one else seems to perceive the ghostly knotted loops wrapped around them, leaving them there, but Tim. In a future with no resources or empathy, bombs are the least of their concerns. A hopeless man comes out of the alley and takes you to what you have, but the system takes your soul and the police…

I know little about the Mega Man Zero Spinoff video games, but it wasn’t very important when it came to this issue. Hatsusosteinbach, who described the variant cover above, does an incredible job with the art of this issue feeling like reading animated. Visual tricks like focal points and motion blur actually add to this feeling. The colors are really pop, the action sequences (more than a few of them) are brilliantly dynamic, and overall lacking a bit of clarity in storytelling with…

Vault Comics has announced that Corin Howell’s Lilith will return as an ongoing series next year. This is great news from a series dealing with printing issues, leading to rescheduling issues #3, #4, and #5 earlier this year. Lilith has become a real social media feeling. Howell’s illustrations of Lilith have earned millions of likes on various social media platforms, solidifying her status as one of the most popular original illustrated characters online. The book quickly achieved both critical criticism and commercial success, bringing multiple sellouts and new printings. “Surprise!!!:D I posted Howell on Instagram. Lilith is a sufficient horror…
Since the dawn of DC in 2023, DC Comics, now an absolute universe, has leaned violently towards reinvention. Whether Joshua Williamson runs in both Green Arrow and Superman, to Tom King’s run in Penguin and Wonder Woman, the DC All-in initiative will only continue its quality. Absolute Batman #1 by Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta has become the bestselling comic of 2024, proving that readers are hungry for bold new take on classic heroes. But long before the absolute line, DC experimented with another, more fundamental reinvention: the Blue Stim’s Justice League: Gods and Monsters (2015). Universe without icons Originally…

Marvel Comics builds a rather quietly an epic story featuring the Infinity Stones, with the latest chapters taking place on Infinity Watch. A trade paperback is on sale this week, featuring the fifth epic poem that bends time and space while holding down the comic format. If we explain that the Infinity Stones acquire human hosts, this story has been made for years. The concept of stones that acquire human personas is interesting, and based on this story, a rather compelling new super team has an epic mission to save the universe. Infinity Watch #1 is an interesting comic in…
The Marvel Universe is a famous and strange place. I’m not talking about the incidents of the Atomic Age, the failed space flight, and mutants (well, not perfect). No, Marvel’s universe is odd to its basic fabric. Superpowers and Supernaturals bring their history back to prehistoric times. There was no ordinary part of human history. Amazing Sabretooth: The Dead Don’t Talk is set in New York in the 1800s and is set to show how extraordinary the city was in the post-industrial era. Think of a New York gang. But one of those gangs is made up entirely of revived…
Predator: Black, White & Blood’s debut issue not only lived in Marvel’s distinctive anthology style, but also offered a truly unique trio of stories. Predator: Black, White & Blood #2 continues to approach that, but there are themes that connect all three stories. It is Yautja culture and how it drives hunting. One of the best things the Predator franchise has done in recent years (except for letting Dan Tratchenberg take away creative control) is to dig into what makes Jautza such a deadly killer. To that end, part two of Joe Kelly and Alvaro Lopez’s “Bloodwood” gives the spotlight…
Since Jed Mackay took reign of the Avengers, he has teased the comprehensive story that Earth’s strongest heroes have done in search of “the moment of missing.” The Avengers had to fight vampire invasions, invade intergalactic casinos and fight an entirely new evil master, but Avengers #29 ultimately revealed the secrets of the moment when they were missing and how it connects. Yes, we see that Mr. Fantastic plays a role in this epic saga, and to Mackay’s credit, he comes up with a clever explanation of not just the moment of his disappearance, but why it is so sought…
