Bane of Kings and Shadowhawk take a look at Rick Remender’s new series from Image Comics with artist Matteo Scalera.
“An absolutely stellar first issue, Black Science might just be Rick Remender’s strongest work yet, and as a result it’s jumped right to the top of my pull list. A must read.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
“Quite an impressive story about desperation, bad choices and a pulp science fiction core that speaks of great adventures.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
Milo, aka “Bane of Kings”, runs down the Top 5 Comics to look out for on Wednesday 27 featuring books from DC, Image and Marvel Comics.
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the first comics round-up for September.
“After two fairly good story arcs, Justice League Dark heads downhill with the addition of writer Ray Fawkes even as JMS’ second installment of Wonder Woman: Odyssey impresses as much as the first. Greg Rucka continues to impress as usual with the second and third issues of his creator-owned project with Image, and I dip back into the Marvel Now universe with Young Avengers with a somewhat tepid first arc.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields
“An awesome new arc for Batgirl gets underway, Captain America reaches its penultimate issue in Dimension Z, and Chris Roberson’s Masks delivers an impressive but flawed union of Dynamite Comic’s strongest heroes.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
Milo, aka “Bane of Kings”, returns from a two week break to feature the Top 5 Comics that you should be looking out for this Wednesday, from DC Comics, Vertigo, Marvel and Image.
Milo, aka “Bane of Kings” runs down the Top Marvel Comics to look out for in August 2013.
Bane of Kings runs down the Top 20 Comics that you should be looking out for on 24 July 2013.
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the second comics round-up for April.
“Taking a step back in time from JMS’ Odyssey Vol.1 to read the first post-Infinite Crisis Wonder Woman title proved to be a wise choice, as did going back to IDW’s first reboot of the G.I.Joe franchise. The new version of Spider-man arch-villain Venom proved to be a major disappointment and Zenescope’s first collected volume of their fairy tale reimaginings ended up being more promising than I’d expected.” ~Shadowhawk
“A mixed bag from DC with Jeff Lemire’s Green Arrow being spectacular but the first volume of All Star Western falling well short. On the other hand, Marvel hits it out of the park with a superb opening start to the adventures of Miles Morales, the new Ultimate Comics Spider-man.” ~Bane of Kings
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the first comics round-up for April.
“After reading the first half of JMS’ run on Wonder Woman, I sincerely wish that it was him writing the current ongoing, rather than Azzarello. Bill Willingham delivers an absolute scorcher on Fables Vol.1, even as Snyder’s Batman ends on a rather tame note. Following Arvid Nelson’s excellent first two volumes, Robert Place Napton’s Dejah Thoris proves to be a disappointment, continuing a trend with the writer across the various John Carter titles.” ~Shadowhawk
“The flagship titles of Marvel Now! make some good, entertaining progress and DC’s Justice League is a strong but flawed series” ~Bane of Kings
Bellarius joins Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings for the second comics round-up for December.
“Some good, some bad, just like any other month really.” ~Shadowhawk
“A mixed bag for Marvel Now and a fresh take on the Man of Steel.” ~Bane of Kings
“Some very disappointing reading this time around.” ~Bellarius
Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings bring you more comics reviews, covering everything from DC’s New 52 to Marvel’s relaunch of its lineup with Marvel Now!, IDW Publishing to Dynamite Entertainment, in the first round-up installment for December.
“This has been a month of highs and lows, but I’m still having fun!” ~Shadowhawk
“Marvel Now! Gets off to a positive start, The New 52 continues to impress and Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning are on fine form.” ~Bane of Kings
