Gehenna: Naked Aggression #1 (2025)
Is there anything as fun as an indie comic that grabs you by the pants and drags you across a city in a hail of gunfire and car crashes? Probably but I don't care. This was awesome!

Wolverines and Deadpools #1 (Marvel, 2025)
Well I'm on record as not liking two of the four characters, loving one and having no real understanding of the fourth so... this should be a fun team-up.

Charlamagne tha God Presents: ILLuminati #1 (AWA, 2025)
It's a noir-style thriller about the music industry corrupting people. I wish I had more to say. Art's nice though.

Gotham City Sirens: Unfit for Orbit #1 (DC, 2025)
Why yes, I absolutely will always fanboy over Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn being awesome together. I do indeed support women's wrongs as they try to steal from a space-themed nightclub.

Captain America #1 (Marvel, 2025)
Oh hey, I did one of these last year when I did a soft attempt to restart. Cool. So it's time to talk about the setup to Steve Rogers - freshly unfrozen - about to stand against Doctor Victor Von Doo…

Ms. Marvel #1 (Marvel, 2024)
Not technically from this week (but Issue 2 did drop so I say it counts), this more of a little rant than it is a little review. READ IT!

Captain America #1 (Marvel, 2024)
Yes, the big premise of "Steve Rogers buys an apartment building" was spoiled but WOW I could have made this a 20 minute dissection with all the meat on this comic's bones. I LOVE IT!

Wonder Woman #1 (DC, 2024)
A brand new Wonder Woman solo series debuts under the DAWN OF DC banner and... well, I do have one or two thoughts. Mostly that I feel we're in Amazons Attack territory a bit more than my PTSD can ha…

Rumpus Room #1 (AWA Studios, 2024)
There's always a bit of fun when billionaires start to kidnap people to turn into lotion. Absolutely worth buying right now!
