The series regains some momentum as CAFU puts in some very, very deft work.
All in Female Lead
Fearless #4 // Review
The final issue of Fearless wraps-up what really should be the first in several such series.
Ghost-Spider #3 // Review
McGuire’s broader plans for Gwen get pulled a bit more into focus in another thoroughly satisfying issue.
Aero #4 // Review
Liefen has an excellent understanding of pacing.
Gwenpool Strikes Back #3 // Review
If you want nothing more than fanservice this story is great—you can see your favorite heroes fight one on one in their swimsuits. But fanservice isn’t enough to carry an entire story.
Supergirl #35 // Review
Supergirl continues to make a very appealingly heroic presence.
Catwoman #16 // Review
Joëlle Jones returns as writer/artist auteur in a spooky, little pair of moods.
The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #8 // Review
If the theme of Kamala's journey thus far has been growth and development, then this issue shows the often-overlooked consequences of these phenomenons. Saladin Ahmed writes about topics like corporate expansion and workers rights through the lens of a superhero/supervillain power struggle. Artists Joey Vazquez and Alex Arizmendi, colorist Ian Herring, and letterer VC's Joe Caramagna lend their talents to this very topical story.
Sonata #5 // Review
The strange and sudden end to a journey from a great distance away feels a bit jarring.
Coffin Bound #3 // Review
Dani gracefully scratches out the decaying detail on a world hanging on to life long after it has passed into the past.
Web of Black Widow #2 // Review
Jodi Houser does an admirable job of preserving the mystery in the second issue of Natasha’s latest mini-series.
Harley Quinn #66 // Review
Thanks to clever oddness from Huphries and Basri, it’s still quite a bit of fun.
Hellmouth #1 // Review
Hellmouth #1 is a compelling enough continuation of the story that’s been ongoing in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series.
Lois Lane #4 // Review
Lois Lane #4 is a great example of why Lois is a linchpin of the DC Universe.
Nomen Omen #1 // Review
An interesting story of an aboriginal magic cast in the modern world.
Black Cat #5 // Review
Felicia’s emotional somersaults in and amidst the action is great fun.
Man-Eaters #12 // Review
It’s a weirdly satisfying end to a pleasantly odd satire.
SFSX #1 // Review
SFSX does a great job at intentionally overlapping sex and social commentary without being heavy-handed.
Fearless #3 // Review
The themed anthology format works strikingly well, especially in an era of high-priced individual comics.
Ghost-Spider #2 // Review
McGuire and company maintain a remarkably balanced work/life/superhero balance in the issue.
