The sun cut through the curtain. Blades of foggy light slipped into the room. Dennis hated when that shit happened. He bought these special Chimera skin blackout curtains specifically to keep out the magical glow of the Ever-Sun. He knew he would have to give the dirty little Mukkuak that he bought the curtains from a piece of his mind.
Exodus: The Life After #8 (Oni Press)
Joshua Hale Fialkov (W) Gabo (A)
I’m not certain that I like the direction this comic is going recently. It was one of my favorite comics due to it’s sharp wit and conscious writing. Recently I feel like it’s trying a new direction, which is great, comics evolve and that’s fine. I just don’t think this new direction is for me.
All-New, All-Different Avengers #15 (Marvel)
Mark Waid (W) Adam Kubert (A)
All these Civil War II tie ins are getting a little confusing due to the delays. Hopefully this issue doesn’t suffer from that same curse.
Ms. Marvel #12 (Marvel)
G. Willow Wilson (W) Takeshi Miyagawa (A)
We’re getting an extra long issue this time. Kamala has a lot to think about after the mess that was Civil War II. Getting abandoned by your role model takes it’s toll. Time for some soul searching.
Titans #4 (DC)
Dan Abnett (W) Brett Booth (A)
This series continues to be the only comic to my knowledge that deals directly with the issues spinning out of Rebirth. For that alone, it is due praise. For other reasons too, you know, good writing, amazing art, all that stuff.
Hellblazer #3 (DC)
Simon Oliver (W) Moritat (A)
Chas is about to fuck up royally and Constantine is going to have to pick up the pieces. Weird, isn’t it supposed to be the other way around. Pop a bottle, this is an occasion.
Teen Titans #1 (DC)
Ben Percy (W) Jonboy Meyers (A)
If Percy writes this comic anything like how he is writing Green Arrow, this is one to look at. Speaking of things to look at. Check out that beautiful interior work. Grab this comic.
Detective Comics #943 (DC)
James Tynion IV (W) Alvaro Martinez (A)
First arc post-Monster-Men. I’m really excited to watch this series develop. It’s been nothing short of phenomenal so far.
Civil War II #6 of 7 (Marvel)
Brian Michael Bendis (W) David Marquez (A)
Does the future hold what we expect? I can only hope not. After the last issue, something big has to happen to redeem some important characters. This is where Bendis shines.
Seven To Eternity #2 (Image)
Rick Remender (W) Jerome Opena (A)
Will pride end the world? Probably not, but I’m sure it won’t leave the world a better place.
Wonder Woman #9 (DC)
Greg Rucka (W) Liam Sharp (A)
A true hero looks out for even their worst enemies. Never more true than with Wonder Woman. This is solid storytelling at it’s best. Please read this comic.
ODY-C #12 (Image)
Matt Fraction (W) Christian Ward (A)
The last issue of this comic sucked me right back in. Come on, nothing says epic like a little adultery and murder.
Renato Jones: The One Percent #5 (Image)
Kaare Andrews (W) Kaare Andrews (A)
Part of me really wants to see this comic on the small screen, while part of me doesn’t want to taint the actual comic with a poor recreation. Not that my opinion matters, I just happen to have a platform to tell people.
Spider-Man/Deadpool #10 (Marvel)
Joe Kelly (W) Ed McGuinness (A)
This is one of the best Marvel comics I’ve read in a long time. Sure, it may not be the most Hickman-y complex story, or the most Fraction-y human story, but it’s god damned funny. Not in a trying too hard way, in an actual belly laugh way.
Descender #16 (Image)
Jeff Lemire (W) Dustin Nguyen (A)
Apparently Lemire isn’t done with the histories of our characters just yet. We have one more issue in this arc to tear our hearts out. Because that’s what we need this week, more heartbreak.
Outcast #22 (Image)
Robert Kirkman (W) Paul Azaceta (A)
This evil thing is really catching on, right? I mean who though satanic possession would be such a commodity in today’s society? All these new-ager’s and their crystals, you’d think good old fashion satanism would be a thing of the past. Well, you’d think wrong.
Saga #39 (Image)
Brian K. Vaughan (W) Fiona Staples (A)
PEOPLE NEED TO STOP FUCKING DYING. WHY IS EVERYONE DYING? I HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES TO ATTEND TO. I HAVE ANIMALS TO FEED, JOBS TO DO. I CAN’T HANDLE EVERYONE DYING. I will go back for seconds though.
