Review: Hexed #4
When you’ve only got four issues to tell a complete story, some things are going to be left out or cut short due to space restrictions. In Hexed #4, just enough information gets through to make this concluding chapter just rewarding enough.

Review: Robin #180
Robin go boom-boom
I haven’t been reading my Bat-titles as faithfully as I have in the past. Instead of the top of the stack, the Bat-family has been relegated to the “I’ll get to you in a moment†pile. You know who I blame for this, and it isn’t Paul Dini, Fabian Nicieza, Freddie Williams II, Peter Tomasi, or Tony Bedard. I decided to give Robin a chance this week, moving the title to the top of the pile for a couple of reasons. First, because Red Robin is officially revealed (although observant readers have known for several weeks), and second, I caught a glimpse of the last page of the issue and thought, “Cool! someone’s going to get blowed up real good!â€
Review: Blue Beetle #31
Buy the book, read the book, love the book, save the book
I’m sure more than a few readers were a tad apprehensive when John Rogers stepped away from writing Blue Beetle and Matthew Sturges took over. But now that Sturges has more than a few issues under his belt, it is clear that the title isn’t suffering due to a change in writers. It’s as strong as it’s ever been.
Review: Immortal Iron Fist #17
Or – “All The Hatred May Be Somewhat Premature…”
Brubaker and Fraction’s run on Iron Fist did what every relaunch really hopes to do: revitalize the character, revive interest in his stories, and add depth and versimilitude to the Iron Fist stories to date. So much so that, when this new creative team was announced, pull list orders on the book (at Gatekeeper Hobbies, Huntoon and Gage, Topeka! Ask about our 70′s Vampirella black and whites!) fell by nearly half, and one of our more sardonic Spoilerites was heard to opine that the book will be cancelled within 18 issues. Of course, it should be noted that some wits said that when they heard of the Iron Fist relaunch in the first place, and it took word of mouth to build the title up to where it was last issue. Now, we’ve hit what Marvel and DC editorial love to call “a perfect jumping-on point for the title,” even though it seems that most of the readers I interact with either want to start with #1 or buy trade paperbacks. Either way, it’s time to take a look at the new face of the Fist.
