REVIEW: Locke & Key: Clockworks #6
Twenty-five years ago, the Keepers of the Keys attempted one last daring adventure. Even the best laid plans can go awry, and the result still haunts family members today. The final issue of Clockworks has arrived, and Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez don’t disappoint.

REVIEW: Batgirl #9
Or – “Crossover Doesn’t Have To Be A Bad Word…”
As the Night of Owls continues, Batgirl is dragged into the middle of a fight she has little to do with. Would it help if she changed her name to Butterfly-Girl?
REVIEW: Garfield #1
Or – “Admit It. You’re Hearing Lorenzo Music In Your Head Right Now…”
I wasn’t entirely sure that I wanted to read the comic book adventures of the world’s fattest kitty cat, until I heard about the creative team… That’s why they call it KABOOM!

REVIEW: The Shadow #2
Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? Does that person also know what lurks in the cargo hold of the plane? Or for that matter, who knows what Ennis and Campbell have in store for readers in the latest installment of The Shadow?

RETRO REVIEW: Marvel Team-Up #74 (October 1978)
Or – “LIVE FROM THE 70′s! IT’S COMIC-BOOK GOLD!”
Many a comic writer has tried to add verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and insipid narrative by chucking in a topical reference or two. Witness Captain America’s battles against both Nixon AND Reagan, Alison Blaire’s original gimmick as Disco Dazzler, or the double-shot of concentrated 1990′s that is Doc Samson’s second uniform. And then, there was this issue…

REVIEW: Fairest #3
Or – “I Used To Call My Boss The Ice Queen…”
The adventures of Briar Rose and Ali Baba have only begun, but I’m already prepared to be enjoying this title for years, much as the mother Fables book itself. Will #3 live up to the standard set by the first two?

REVIEW: Trio #1
Or – “Rock! Paper! Scissors! But Where’s Spock?”
As I am a child of the 1980s, the news that John Byrne was working on a new superhero title in a classic style had me excited. I’m a regular monthly reader of Next Men, but I still kind of miss the days of Byrne’s Fantastic Four (one of the last times I really enjoyed Reed Richards, I might add) and hoped to see this title reach those kind of heights. Shall we dance?

REVIEW: Higher Earth #1
BOOM! Studios kicks off another new series, and one of the great things about a first issue is we don’t know anything about the series, ‘cept what we’ve been told on sites like Major Spoilers… and those others, whose names I forget at this time…
It’s a whole new world to explore!

REVIEW: Fatale #5
The first arc comes to a close as Brubaker and Phillips take this modern day pulp story and pepper it with classic ‘50s horror/occult motifs.
