The Incredible Hercules #119

Tue, June 24th, 2008 | Category: Review

While the art is uneven, the story is a welcomed addition to an otherwise blah "Secret Invasion" event. "The Incredible Hercules" is a top tier Marvel book, deserving of more attention.

Trinity #3

Sat, June 21st, 2008 | Category: Review

In its third week, "Trinity" starts coming together. Mike Norton and Jerry Ordway's secondary story art is a visual treat.

Tiny Titans #5

Wed, June 18th, 2008 | Category: Review

"Tiny Titans" is the kind of comic the world needs more of. It's reverential without being slavish. It's cute and all-ages appropriate. And it's very cute.

The Amazing Spider-Man #562

Mon, June 16th, 2008 | Category: Review

Mice McKone makes his "Amazing" debut, as the series' new direction comes together to create classic Spider-Man stories.

Trinity #2

Thu, June 12th, 2008 | Category: Review

The hesitations in reaction to the first issue are erased with the second, as things come together and characters become interesting.

Skaar: Son Of Hulk #1

Thu, June 12th, 2008 | Category: Review

"Skaar" drops you right into the middle of a story. but Greg Pak plays in his sandbox well. Ron Garney's pencils-only art needs some strength.

Criminal #3

Fri, June 6th, 2008 | Category: Review

"Criminal" wraps up the first storyline of its second season, and it's another winner. This month, we get Danica's tragic story.

Duostar Racers #1

Fri, June 6th, 2008 | Category: Review

Ashley Wood's new series suffers from First Issue syndrome, but is otherwise an excellent example of his art and design sense.

Justice Society of America #16

Thu, June 5th, 2008 | Category: Review

Justice Society's cast continues to expand, Geoff Johns continues to juggle it masterfully, and long time DC readers will find a lot to enjoy in this issue.

Trinity #1

Wed, June 4th, 2008 | Category: Review

"Trinity" is a book filled with great promise and trustworthy creators, but the first issue's structure makes it an unsatisfying opening for the new weekly series.

Thor #9

Mon, June 2nd, 2008 | Category: Review

J. Michael Straczynski's "Thor" has made a believer out of a long-time skeptic. Combined with Olivier Copiel's art, the book has a mission and a style worth looking out for every month.
