AVENGERS #44 and NEW AVENGERS #33 Review: “The End of the Line!”

May 2, 2015 by Matt Lehn Leave a Comment

What’s crazier than a book of writer Jonathan Hickman’s sprawling Avengers saga reaching its conclusion? Dropping both parts of the finale on the same day! Although not exact bookends, it’s difficult to discuss one without the other. [Read more…] about AVENGERS #44 and NEW AVENGERS #33 Review: “The End of the Line!”

The Best 100 Marvel Stories Told From 1998 to 2015!

April 28, 2015 by Dave

It’s been my goal since starting Comic Book Herald to help readers and new (or lapsed) comic fans navigate the modern Marvel Universe. In my estimate, that has always been since just before the turn of the century, as Marvel Knights, the Ultimate Universe, and the editorial reign of Joe Quesada rose from the ashes of Heroes Reborn.

I never really thought about what it might look like if this modern Marvel era ended. With Secret Wars set to launch the Marvel Universe into a new state of being (however dramatic that may be), it’s suddenly a fantastic time to look back on the era as a whole. What were the best Marvel stories told from 1998 through 2015? These are my picks: [Read more…] about The Best 100 Marvel Stories Told From 1998 to 2015!

ALL-NEW X-MEN #40 Review: “The Hype and Speculation Show”

April 25, 2015 by Matt Lehn 4 Comments

Although always high profile, few issues in writer Brian Michael Bendis’s turn on the X-franchise have gotten this much attention. From the months of mysterious whisperings regarding the “Utopians” to the pre-release controversy earlier this week, this is indeed one that has everyone talking. How much of it is wholly warranted? That may be another matter entirely. [Read more…] about ALL-NEW X-MEN #40 Review: “The Hype and Speculation Show”

History of Batman #11: Adventures of Alfred – Batman in 1944, Part One

April 21, 2015 by Londyn Jackson 1 Comment

1944 begins by placing Alfred Beagle into the spotlight of the Batman comic book mythos. After his live action as ‘Alfred Pennyworth’ in the 1943 Batman black and white serials as the tall and slender British butler, this look transferred into ‘Batman’ and ‘Detective Comics’, becoming his own hero in the side stories ‘The Adventures of Alfred’. Let’s see how Alfred helps our Caped Crusader and Boy Wonder in this exciting golden age year! [Read more…] about History of Batman #11: Adventures of Alfred – Batman in 1944, Part One

CAPTAIN AMERICA AND THE MIGHTY AVENGERS #7 Review: “Auntie Monica’s ☠☠☠☠ Revenge!”

April 19, 2015 by Matt Lehn Leave a Comment

Writer Al Ewing’s ongoing rivalry between the Mighty Avengers and Cortex Incorporated’s CEO, Jason Quantrell, reaches its conclusion this week. As much as the story provides a tangible throughline from the decade-old work of Warren Ellis to the now-unfolding master plan of Jonathan Hickman, it does very little else of its own merit.
