Phil’s Reviews : Stuff I Bought #284

Posted on September 27, 2014 by Phil

Last week for the DC special covers, so let’s check them out (now that we’ve figured out how to animate them automatically), and then take a quick look at some of the best of this week’s other offerings: Harley Quinn #1 — Writers: Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Connor;  Art: Chad Hardin This Futures End one-shot comes the closest of all of them to just being a regular issue of the comic: it’s by the same creative team, and its tongue-in-cheek style means it doesn’t care about continuity anyway (a good thing, since the Futures End Suicide Squad #1 a few … Continue reading →

The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #97 by Dan!

Posted on April 26, 2014 by admin

All right folks, we’re back in action. Not a bad week for comics, but only a few that really stood out. Let’s do this! Elektra #1 Writer: W. Haden Blackman Artist: Mike Del Mundo The first few pages of this issue threw me off. It was a fair amount of talking, reminding the reader about just who Elektra was and what had come before. The art style is pretty jarring. But once you actually focus and see that every panel of every page is telling a story, you realize that this book is shockingly well put together. In a similar … Continue reading →

And we’re back! Just one more week left of 3-D covers, and I’ll be here to cover them all. But first, let’s hit all the important other stuff of the week. Let’s do this! Zero #1 Writer: Ales Kot Artist: Michael Walsh This is such a good comic, even Eddie read it and enjoyed it (cue audience gasp)! A special op agent is out in the field looking to collect some data while two super-soldiers fight to the death around him. This issue acts as the pilot to the series, and it is pretty darn fantastic. The art style is … Continue reading →

The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #65 by Dan!

Posted on January 5, 2013 by admin

All right folks, we’re back in action, so here’s this week’s reviews. Let’s do this! Batman Incorporated #6 Writer: Grant Morrison Artist: Chris Burnham Things are getting really really bad for the members of Incorporated. It doesn’t matter which character, we’re hitting the very end of the rising action and ramping toward the climax of Morrison’s tremendous run on this series. Every single character is just about at rock bottom and I couldn’t possibly love this title any more than I do. It’s incredibly well put-together, and Burnham is one of the few artists that can keep up with everything … Continue reading →
