Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings take a look at Image’s latest title, from Kyle Higgins and Alec Siegel.
“Not quite up to Kyle’s usual standards but interesting nonetheless, although the art isn’t really to my liking.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
“An original Take on the superhero genre that doesn’t disappoint – Higgins and Siegel combine to create a great issue with some brilliant artwork.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
Responding to demands, Bellarius examines another Hasbro franchise with the first volume of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic by Katie Cook and Andy Price.
“I’m really not the right person to review this.” – Bellarius, The Founding Fields
Bane of Kings and Shadowhawk check out the final issue of DC’s biggest event series for the New 52.
“A satisfactory conclusion to an event that didn’t get off to a good start.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
“A disappointing and needlessly delayed conclusion to a disappointing event.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
Bellarius dives back into DC Comics’ New 52 with a new volume of Geoff Johns’ Aquaman.
“With politics, betrayal, intrigue, magic and monsters, Johns delivers one of the best volumes since Peter David’s famed run.” – Bellarius, The Founding Fields
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings take a look at the first issue of Superman: Doomed as Superman takes on Doomsday in a reimagining of sorts of the classic, epic story Death of Superman.
“Rushed story, rushed art, rushed ending. This was, quite frankly, a mess.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
“If you want to see a fight between Superman and Doomsday, then you’ve come to the right place.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
Milo, aka “Bane of Kings”, reviews the first Volume in the newly launched Batman/Superman title, featuring both characters from the New 52 and their first encounters with their Earth 2 counterparts. This book is published by DC Comics.
“A flawed book that can be cautiously recommended if you’re a fan of Jae Lee’s artwork – if not, this may be one to stay clear of – because Pak’s writing is not enough to salvage this book, which is a shame given the potential from the subject matter.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
Bane of Kings and Shadowhawk take a look at the first issue of a Cyclops-focused series.
“A strong first issue and has the potential to be the best X-Book on shelves.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
“An unfocused issue that doesn’t really give a sense for what this series is going to be all about.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
Getting his hands on another DC Comics trade paperback, Bellarius gives his thoughts on the revamped Constantine series by Jeff Lemire and Ray Fawkes.
“An entertainingly dark tale which fully returns John to the world of superheroics. It’s just a shame what we lost in order to get it.” – Bellarius, The Founding Fields
Milo, aka “Bane of Kings”, covers the fourth Volume of the New 52 Green Lantern series, “Dark Days”, written by Robert Venditti and with pencils from Billy Tan, published by DC Comics.
“A book that sadly is full of wasted potential despite Robert Venditti’s strengths as a writer in his other work - Dark Days is a collection to stay clear of unless you’re up to date with everything Green Lantern and even then it struggles as a successor to Johns’ work. “ ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
Giving a brief look at another Dark Horse publication, Bellarius gives his thoughts on Mike Mignola’s return to Hellboy.
“An excellent journey giving a look into the more traditional forms of evil within Hellboy’s universe, but one lacking direction.” – Bellarius, The Founding Fields
