On Monday, my next Comics Portal column will deal with recently announced changes in Marvel that will be reversed eventually, but today’s review has to do with one that’s been taking place at DC.

Infinite Crisis – Fight For The Multiverse #1 Review

Retro Review: Cerebus The Aardvark #300 (March 2004)

After 8 years (!!) at Major Spoilers, I like to think I have a general idea of what works and doesn’t work in the worlds of comic books. Every once in a while, though, a creator or title presents a quandary that’s ...

REVIEW: Figment #2 of 5

When Disney acquired Marvel several years back, I have to admit that I was worried about what would happen to the House of Ideas. Would Mickey Mouse team up with Spider-Man? Would one of the Disney princesses give Mary Jane Wat...

Outcast #1 Review

From the mind of the man that brought you The Walking Dead comes another horror comic, this one supernatural in nature. Is Robert Kirkman’s latest title one that will get all his attention or will he get bored with it in four ...

Retro Review: Incredible Hulk #380 (April 1991)

As Major Spoilers resident old guy, I remember when this issue of Incredible Hulk first hit the stands, with its front-cover warning that the main character doesn’t appear anywhere in the pages. I wondered if the issue c...
