Bomb Queen: Trump Card #2 // Review
Edginess comes across as childishness. It almost works.
An Unkindness of Ravens #1 // Review
The modern-day witch-based horror/fantasy series opens with some endearing wit and a whole lot of potential.
Spider-Woman #4 // Review
Pacheco finesses a lot of things in this issue that really have no business working as well as they do.
Nomen Omen #9 // Review
Contemporary fantasy glides along through another appealing issue.
Batgirl #49 // Review
Castellucci is playing with subtly deeper darkness.
Aero #11 // Review
Aero has her own action in the issue, but for the most part, she might as well be tech support for Tony Stark.
Catwoman #25 // Review
Selina returns to Gotham in a promising new direction for her series.
G.I. Joe #8 // Review
Largely fails to embrace the possibilities of spy-based drama on the comics page.

The cat is hypnotically cute.

Watters soaks the page with metaphor.
Exorsisters #9 // Review
Cate and Kate are just...really, really fun.
Aero #10 // Review
Aero begins to feel a bit more like a part of a larger tapestry.
Wonder Woman #761 // Review
Nearly everything that Tamaki is putting on the page is powerful and resonant
Batgirl #48 // Review
Cecil Castellucci’s distinct take on Batgirl’s themes slides somewhat gracefully across the page.

One of the more satisfying issues in the series thus far.
