20th Century Boys, Volume 3

Fri, June 26th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie

Gotham City Sirens #1

Thu, June 25th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

"Gotham City Sirens" seems like a good idea, but the series needs a backbone, and fast.

Justice League of America #34

Thu, June 25th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Dwayne McDuffie's run ends more with a whimper than a bang. Sure, there's a bang or two in this issue, but the overall package is spoiled by the events that led to this point.

Secret Warriors #5

Wed, June 24th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

The Howling Commandos versus H.A.M.M.E.R. versus Hydra! Need I say more?

Green Lantern #42

Wed, June 24th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

War is about to break out among the different colors of Lanterns. You'd almost think there was a big crossover storyline just around the bend. Oh, hang on...

Predator #1

Wed, June 24th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Two decades after first publishing a Predator comic, Dark Horse unleashes the fury of those uglies again.

Berserker #1

Wed, June 24th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

A lot of set-up and laying out the concept with little actual characterization. But, the art is fantastic.

Iron Fist #27

Wed, June 24th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

This chapter of the book of "Iron Fist" comes to a close, but how does it end?

Dark Reign: Lethal Legion #1

Wed, June 24th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

We all know that Norman Osborn's as crooked as they come, but what about the folks he thought were unworthy of sharing in his latest, greatest scheme?

Dark Avengers #6

Tue, June 23rd, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

If you’ve read Warren Ellis’ “Thunderbolts,” you can probably skip this issue since it’s pretty much that again.

Dark Avengers/Uncanny X-Men: Utopia #1

Tue, June 23rd, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

The crossover between the Avengers and X-Men begins here with a riot in San Francisco that the X-Men can’t control, so Norman Osborn is called in to restore order.

Young Allies 70th Anniversary Special #1

Tue, June 23rd, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Marvel continues to celebrate their 70th anniversary with yet another special featuring characters from Marvel's past.

Thor #602

Tue, June 23rd, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

An issue of subplots with no real central focus to drive things forward as Thor solves a problem, William adjusts to life in Asgard, and Baldur explains his rationale for accepting Doom’s offer of relocation.

Power Girl #2

Tue, June 23rd, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

"Power Girl" is already losing a little bit of its oomph, with far too much of the issue devoted to drawn out fight scenes and little forward momentum.

Superman/Batman #61

Mon, June 22nd, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

In many ways this is a throw-away story in "Superman/Batman," but it's so fun and so gorgeous that you'll find yourself enthralled none the less.

Captain Britain and MI:13 #14

Mon, June 22nd, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

Even in its swan song, "Captain Britain and MI13" continues to be one of the smartest, most fun titles published at Marvel right now.

Dark Wolverine #75

Mon, June 22nd, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Daken is now the star of the comic, but it's not as bad as it sounds.

Dark Reign: Zodiac #1

Mon, June 22nd, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

The fabulous Nathan Fox delivers some invigorating art, but Joe Casey's story is only getting started.

Transformers Spotlight: Cliffjumper #1

Sun, June 21st, 2009 | By James Hunt

Cliffjumper makes some friends, but things get ugly when, predictably, the Decepticons show up.

Sun, June 21st, 2009 | By James Hunt

Mister Negative takes on the Hood in a turf war as Dark Reign catches up with the Spideyverse in a big way.

Herogasm #2

Sun, June 21st, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

The plot picks up in this issue, but not enough with Ennis and McCrea still too enamored with bodily humor jokes to move on.

Final Crisis Aftermath: Dance #2

Sat, June 20th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Fill-in artists already? That doesn't bode well for this miniseries.

The Brave and the Bold #24

Fri, June 19th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

The Milestone characters begin a run on "The Brave and the Bold" as co-stars. First up is Static, so why not pair him with Black Lightning?

Young Liars #16

Fri, June 19th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

An absolute masterpiece of craft and storytelling as David Lapham takes a break from the ongoing narrative to focus on a new character and a different type of issue construction.

Madman Atomic Comics #16

Thu, June 18th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

With two short stories in this penultimate issue, one detailing an obsession with the Atomics and the other Frank Einstein’s possible new career, this is a very good read!

The Unwritten #2

Thu, June 18th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

Mike Carey and Peter Gross's "The Unwritten" mixes mystery, fantasy, and a love of books into the perfect synthesis of all three.

Thor: The Trial of Thor #1

Thu, June 18th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

There’s actually no trial in these pages. It’s more “CSI: Asgard” than anything else.

Outsiders #19

Thu, June 18th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Emblazoned with a "Batman: Reborn" trade dress, the fifth part of "The Deep" in "Outsiders" welcomes Fernando Pasarin and Jeremy Haun in as pencilers.

Supergirl #42

Wed, June 17th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

With Superwoman's identity -- and life -- blown to pieces, this title takes a turn, as a plot for revenge against Supergirl begins to percolate.

Incognito #4

Wed, June 17th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Things get worse for Zack Overkill. You didn’t think it was possible, but, apparently, it is.

Invincible #63

Wed, June 17th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie

Superhero comics don't always have to be pretty. This issue is certainly not pretty. Blood, guts, violence, and death.

The Road to the White House: Barack Obama #1

Wed, June 17th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

IDW continues to ride the "Obama Wave" in comics, offering another Obama-covered comic. The biggest difference is this one is actually about Barack Obama.

Batman: Streets of Gotham #1

Wed, June 17th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

In its debut, "Batman: Streets of Gotham" seems less the street-level version of a Batman title that we were promised, and more like an extension of Paul Dini and Dustin Nguyen's run on "Detective Comics." But now with added Manhu

X-Men Forever #1

Tue, June 16th, 2009 | By James Hunt

It’s 1991 again, and the X-Men are taking on the remnants of Magneto’s acolytes following the destruction of Asteroid M.

War of Kings: Ascension #3

Tue, June 16th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

The latest issue of "War of Kings: Ascension" shows the flipside of recent "War of Kings" events, which sounds good in practice but gets sluggish in places. Plus, Darkhawk tries to find his inner Hulk.

Miss America 70th Anniversary Special #1

Tue, June 16th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Van Meter and Macdonald have some fun with a Marvel not-quite-icon.

The Comic Book Podcast Companion

Tue, June 16th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

An insightful book of interviews with some of the most well-known and popular comic book podcasters. If you don’t know what podcasts are or what shows to listen to, this book is for you.

X-Factor #44

Tue, June 16th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan

Peter David gives us an X-sitcom with an edge, but is that what you're looking for?

Emily Aster visits an indie club, and the ghosts of her past are waiting there for her.

Billy Batson and the Magic of Shazam! #5

Sun, June 14th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

Art Baltazar and Franco Aureliani step in to help get this title back on a more regular schedule. It is a different book with those two at the controls, but in an energetic sense, the enthusiasm is still very much present.

Toy Story: Mysterious Stranger #1

Fri, June 12th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

Most of the Boom! Kids line based on Disney properties have been dead-on accurate, but "Toy Story: Mysterious Stranger" is off to a lackluster start.

Uncanny X-Men #511

Fri, June 12th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie

Matt Fraction's X-Men is about humanity moreso than mutancy. And the characters shine through.

Final Crisis Aftermath: Escape #2

Thu, June 11th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett

Experimental, trippy, obtuse, and quite possibly brilliant, “Escape” continues with Nemesis no closer to answers concerning his stay in Electric City.

Booster Gold #21

Thu, June 11th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza

The subfeat – er, uh, the "Second Features" start here, with the Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle sharing staples with the man who helped him get started, Booster Gold. Booster, however, is a little busy confronting the cowl.
