This is all set up: The Punisher is tracking criminals, and will eventually get suckered into going up against Wolverine. How? They have him tracking down someone Wolverine is sent to track down as well. Gorgeous. Even though a lot of this is setting up Castle tracking down these criminals, ...

I was pleasantly surprised by Britannia, the new graphic novel (now in trade paperback) from Peter Milligan. Recently not all my graphic novel experiences have been so good, so my expectations were not so high, but this turned out to be without reason. Set during the rule of Nero both in Rome and in...

It's Sherlock in a horror story set in occupied Britannia. Not your every day comic, but somehow I couldn't get invested.

Melissa, an unfulfilled housewife, is recruited by the Discipline who use sex in their fight against the Stalkers. Confused by it all, she runs away. We discover that this confrontation dates back to Roman times. The plot involves her slow integration into the discipline and it looks as if there'll ...

Eeeh, not awful, but not great either... Follows 5 Ronin (Though I'm not sure how Psylocke counts as one) on the road for vengeance... Each story based on a different character: Wolverine, Hulk, Punisher, the previously mention Psylocke and Deadpool. 3 stars, though I may be feeling a little gener...

Another volume of excellent Batman mysteries. Loved the artwork and the storyline is snappy and active, but also emotive. I think Dini's Batman volumes tend to be my favorite.

Although this is never as lushly illustrated as when the scenes are underwater, and I find the depictions of underwater vehicles particularly lovely. I like to imagine the artist wanted to live on a submarine as a child, and thus had a fascination for them, explaining why these subs are so loving...

Too much truthfulness and bluntness can be depressing. For some reason, I was left more in awe of the first volume: maybe reading too much of this in a row means that some of the shock and novelty has worn off. Not that this is any less brilliant. It's still staggeringly brilliant, and it sti...

This is like MAX, or Vertigo, except it wasn't set up as part of the hardcore Marvel Universe: it was X-Force, written by Milligan, with a mature content warning on the cover, and that's all. Except this isn't the X-Force, any X-Force, Marvel fans are used to. Those X-Forcers are heroes who are ...
