Infinite Crisis
Infinite Crisis

Review:While the creative team involved has made every effort to echo the themes of the original mega-crossover, Crisis on Infinite Earths, Infinite Crisis reads less like a multiverse spanning epic and more like just another Superman story, albeit with more guest stars than usual. To explain why this story could have easily fit into the monthly Superman or Action title would be to give away too much of the plot. Suffice to say, that the major antagonists are all "Super"-related as is much of the act... Read more

The Rising of the Shield Hero Volume 01 - The Manga Companion

Review:I discovered this series. I made the mistake of showing another otaku because my screen had the Japanese version on my desktop. In logic class I had shown another person, and then suddenly this manga exploded. I found that everyone was reading it because it was listed as no. 1. So now I am supporting the english translation officially by purchasing a copy.

I liked the storyline because the characters seem real. I don't want to spoil the story but there's moments comparable to clannad, but... Read more

The From Hell Companion
The From Hell Companion

Review:The binding was a little messed up. It was coming apart a little bit on the inside and the outer top corner was smashed in. But, hey the book itself is a great read and I recommend you buy it if you like horror graphic novels. Just don't get it from this seller. Read more

Outcast by Kirkman & Azaceta Volume 1 - A Darkness Surrounds Him
Outcast by Kirkman & Azaceta Volume 1 - A Darkness Surrounds Him

Review:Outcast follows a guy named Kyle who is battling/coming out of a deep depression. In this story, people seem to be randomly possessed by demons. A priest has been exorcising them with difficulty and when he meets up with Kyle (they knew each other several years prior) they discover that Kyle's touch irritates the demons and if he touches them long enough, the demons will leave the bodies they are possessing. This possession has happened to Kyle's mother and his ex-wife; he thinks whatever is hap... Read more

American Vampire Vol. 1
American Vampire Vol. 1

Review:If you are tried of pretty, seductive vampires and enjoy graphic novels, then you need to try this book.

There is a new kind of vampire rising in the American West and things the kill the old ones don't seem to have any effect on the new ones.

Sunlight turning vampires into ash? While these new vampires still can't tan, sunlight doesn't seem to be a problem.

That's only a hint at the changes in the new vampires.

This book is a mix of two stories. The year 1880 and 192... Read more

Wytches, Vol. 1

Review:Very interesting novel. I love the fluidity of the narratives between the father and daughter. Also the flashbacks are beautifully integrated into action sequences without losing any momentum. Highly recommend reading. Read more

Sex Criminals Volume 1: One Weird Trick
Sex Criminals Volume 1: One Weird Trick

Review:A few months prior to the release of Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky's SEX CRIMINALS, the buzz amongst creators was huge. Ed Brubaker, an occasional collaborator with Fraction from his IMMORTAL IRON FIST days, called it the best new series in years. While I don't know if I'd go QUITE that far, this delicious, hilarious, heart-felt, smart and shameless comic is by far the best new series of 2013.

Suzie is a smart and attractive young woman with a host of problems. She lost her parents at to... Read more

Hawkeye, Vol. 1: My Life as a Weapon (Marvel NOW!)
Hawkeye, Vol. 1: My Life as a Weapon (Marvel NOW!)

Review:One of my all-time favorite Avengers finally gets stories worthy of his abilities. This collection hits the bullseye constantly. A worthy and recommended read for all fans of the Avengers, New Avengers, Young Avengers and all marvel comics.
However the character portrayed in these comics are nothing like Hawkeye seen on screen. Hawkeye is a hero, living in a world where most of the heroes have super powers or mutated abilities. Hawkeye is human, figuratively and literally.
So if you are a ... Read more

Monstress Vol. 1

Review:An intriguing story with a mystery or two. A magical and dangerous world split between two races and teetering on a sword's edge. The illustrations are wonderful and propel the story during the action and embrace the quiet moments and the horror. Read more
