Still as wordy as the older comics were. Art is pretty typical of the time, but I remembered X-Man, this series, not being great. It was better and more compelling than I remembered, so I'll probably continue at some point.
I'm enjoying this right off the bat, even more so than Fathom. And the thing is that so far, Fathom has a world I understand more on some levels: it's set in the present day and The Blue has a society that's very much like ours, especially when it comes to politics and families and religion. Sou...
Basically, if you like the Jessica Jones show on Netflix, you will like this. It even has the same tone. Not much happens. Except the show has more wow, crazy moments than the graphic novel does. Heavy on prose and ironical humor. Jessica herself is impossible not to like, probably because of her fl...
This is a reread for me, I like to pull it out every Halloween despite the fact that, well, it's not very good. Let me rephrase that: it's not as good as it should be.

She teams up with a Mafia hitman and another odd partner in crime, and everytime she turns around, one of her Gotham City foes is attacking her....
I have a lot of trouble with the war propaganda, and this war being used, at least in modern times. I understand that when Cap was first unleashed on the world, it was too close, and everyone needed hope, and maybe even needed the propaganda. That being said, it makes me uncomfortable when it's re...
But I was giving Loeb the benefit of the doubt. It didn't pan out. The story wasn't engrossing enough for me to continue, despite Metallo. (I like him.) And then there was this little nit pick. The same way. The same way. Maybe it's a personal choice, but I wanted to shout it at ...
