Invincible #60Even if the event of this book were just the cover, it would be a success. "Invincible" #60 has a lot of action packed inside that extra-wide cover.

Jersey Gods #2Too much clichéd plot about gods fighting and not enough domestic comedy. A charming, fun read, but with the potential to be a lot better.

Savage Dragon #145While many of the titles that helped launch the Image fleet have rebooted or simply faded away, "Savage Dragon" marches forward. This issue is a great jumping on point.

Youngblood #7Uninteresting, dull, boring, humdrum, tedious; take your pick, but they all describe “Youngblood” #7 and I have no idea why.

Dynamo 5 #18"Dynamo 5" continues on, with the team now comprised not of Captain Dynamo's illegtimate children, but rather a Dynamo 5 of Substitute Heroes. The results don't quite measure up to expectations.

Age of Bronze #27Eric Shanower's multi-award-winning series releases another issue, and is unsurprisingly as great as always. Learning "The Iliad" in high school was never this exciting.

Firebreather #1"Firebreather" returns as a regular series with series creators Phil Hester and Andy Kuhn behind the wheel. This first entry is extremely new reader friendly, as well as being a rollicking good time.
