Hey.  I did a podcast.  Nothing too exciting, just me going over the back part of the May Previews comic and graphic novel section.  I thought I would give you a little insight as to how I read the book and how I decide what to order. Enjoy.

I am going to do my best not to spoil anything here and just give a brief overview of Flashpoint.  I think it has a lot of possibilities and should be the hit of the summer. Basic premise (this is summarizing both Flash #12 and Flashpoint #1) – Professor Zoom, the Reverse Flash, came back […]

Uncanny X-Men 534.1 Written by Kieron Gillen Penciled by Carlos Pacheco Review by currentcomicguy Kieron Gillen’s solo debut as scribe for Uncanny X-Men begins with this .1 issue.  As we know, the .1 issues are “jumping on points for new readers.”  So far, only a few .1 issues have actually lived up to the goal. […]

Fear Itself 1 Written by Matt Fraction Penciled by Stuart Immonen Review by currentcomicguy Marvel’s biggest event since the Civil War hits the ground rolling.  Fear Itself is said to alter the face of the Marvel Universe forever.  Those changes are already set in motion in the first of the seven issue limited series.

Wolverine 7 Written by Jason Aaron Penciled by Daniel Acuna Review by currentcomicguy Wolverine’s internal and external struggles continue.  A possessed Wolverine battles Magneto, Namor, and Cyclops while demons ransack Logan’s mind.

Batman Incorporated #4 Written by Grant Morrison Art by Chris Burnham Review by Colin   Grant Morrison has been hit or miss for me.  He always has the big ideas, but sometimes it seems too big, too confusing or not complete.  I always admire what he is attempting, but I also understand those of you […]

Captain America 615.1 Written by Ed Brubaker Penciled by Mitch Breitweiser Review by currentcomicsguy This issue is a good example of what a .1 issue should be, a jumping on point.  The “Trial of Captain America” arc came to an end last issue with Bucky Barnes declared not guilty in America but being extradited to […]
