“This is exactly the kind of comic I feel like we need more of. It’s pretty kid friendly and appealing, with strong young protagonists, good solid friendships, and I suspect, eventually, some nice messages. I’m not sure how engaging it is for an adult audience on the whole at this point, but not every comic should be for every person, or we’d have tepid stories indeed. Variety, she’s the spice of life, kids!…”

“I was pretty disappointed when Marjorie Liu had to leave “Black Widow” for “X-23,” because I was loving the feel of Daniel Acuna and Liu’s take on Natasha. To make matters worse, I wasn’t wild about “X-23”. I tried the first arc, but had dropped it before we even got to the end. Liu’s writing was strong overall, but inconsistent art that frequently wasn’t to my tastes kept me from coming back, so instead I sulked about missing “Black Widow.” “X-23” #13 is a whole other story, and one that has me saying “Black Widow who?…”

“It’s always exciting to see a new series by Terry Moore. Especially as a reader hungry for strong well-rounded female characters, I always know I’m going to get something interesting from Moore. I also always know the book is going to be beautiful, and probably pretty intriguing. “Rachel Rising” #1 is no exception, and delivers on all fronts…”

““The Intrepids” is what more comics should be like. It’s vibrant and fun, smart and enthusiastic. Reading it feels like reading something someone is in love with. It has flaws, sure, but being creator owned you can feel the very soul of the creators being poured into it. I wish more comics felt this way. I wish more readers of comics would give books like “The Intrepids” a chance, because I think they’d feel the passion too…”

“Expectation can be a bad thing. It can turn a perfectly good comic into a disappointment. And really that’s what we have here with “Fables” #107, a perfectly good comic that disappoints me nonetheless. Sleeping Beauty is a favorite character of mine, and while she hasn’t gotten much play in Willingham’s “Fables” universe thus far, for a lot of reasons, including the fact that her “superpower” is basically to “fall asleep and take everyone with her,” I was excited to know this issue would feature her….”

““Supergirl” #66 hits an excellent blend of Kara being traditionally heroic, and even donning her costume, while also allowing her to hone her detective skills as she searches for missing students at Stanhope College…”

“Kieron Gillen is doing in “Generation Hope” what I’ve been waiting for someone to do with a mutant book for a long time now, which is to find the reality of what it would be like to be a mutant, especially as a teenager. It’s certainly been addressed before (Kitty Pryde) here and there, over the years, and some books have tackled it well, but in a different way than what Gillen is doing. (“Generation X” springs to mind.) But what Gillen did in this single issue of “Generation Hope” is inspired and a long time coming for this current generation…”
