9 Comic Books for People Who Think They Hate Comic Books

January 28, 2020 by John Galati 5 Comments

It’s 2020, and the world economy is now totally based on comic books. Nations rise and fall with ticket sales. Conventions pop up, demand statehood, and then evaporate on Monday. In every major city, families of 4 are living under the ruined pilot of ABC’s Inhumans while the wealthy demand someone, anyone tell them what a “M.O.D.O.K” is and how much it costs.

As a non-comic fan, you might very well feel left out of the conversation being screamed across social media outlets everywhere. It’s okay, we at Comic Book Herald are finally here to help you.

But we will not demand your conversion. Oh no. Instead, we will take the most common criticisms on Reddit and Goodreads, then turn them into strawmen so we might answer with recommendations.

Fear not. The world gets easier from here.

Krakin’ Krakoa #29: Marauders #6 Review — Villains Explained + Does Resurrection Work For Kate?

January 24, 2020 by Dave Leave a Comment

Throughout its first six issues, Marauders has consistently been my favorite Dawn of X book in the new X-Men lineup, both delivering on the promise of post House of X innovation and the energy of X-Men comics set in the broader Marvel Universe.

Krakin’ Krakoa #28: Excalibur is a Bust – What Went Wrong?

January 23, 2020 by Dave 2 Comments

I had high hopes for Excalibur heading in to Dawn of X, and through two issues was still caught up in the potential of a book exploring magic in the world of mutants. Talented creators Tini Howard and Marcus To have been playing with Apocalypse as a wizard, a previously untapped look into how a mutant this ancient might have explored the supernatural, while simultaneously moving the Captain Britain mythos forward once again towards Betsy Braddock.

Nonetheless, apart from Fallen Angels, Excalibur has been the most disappointing comic in the Dawn of X, and with one full story arc under its belt has only trended down since launch. There will be fans of course, much as there are for Fallen Angels, but for me, reading this series is an increasing exercise in missed opportunities.
