Daredevil By Bendis & Maleev – The Fall of Matt Murdock

December 9, 2020 by Matt Draper Leave a Comment

“Anyway, it’s been a hell of a week. (Hell of a week …) Hell of a year! Hell of a year is what it’s been … Almost a year to the day when Matt Murdock took control of ‘The Kitchen.”

And so begins the second half of Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev’s Daredevil, a story that began with a good man’s most self-destructive impulses turning him into his own worst enemy and whose fallout will see him unable to outrun the consequences of his actions.

Wonder Woman: Dead Earth Review!

December 5, 2020 by Kenneth Laster Leave a Comment

Wonder Woman: Dead Earth is a DC Black Label book by writer/artist Daniel Warren Johnson, Mike Spicer, and Rus Wooton, and it’s a weird comic book. The premise is very straight forward: Princess Diana of Themyscira wakes up in a post-apocalyptic wasteland and has to uncover the mystery of what went wrong and protect the remains of humanity. On the surface, the hook isn’t really all that different from Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s Last Knight on Earth, but what really set it apart was Daniel Warren Johnson spearheading this book.

Johnson’s Shonen influence and work on Murder Falcon and Extremity really make him an exciting artist; his work conveys an over the top momentum and action that is a really fresh presence on a big two book. And objectively, Wonder Woman: Dead Earth is a visually stunning book and plays so perfectly into Johnson’s strengths as an artist. The story and plot are where it gets a bit dicier. At its core Wonder Woman: Dead Earth, is a story around the notion of second chances told really effectively, but its problems come when the story is put within the context of DC Comics’ fascination with overly grim settings, and the broader mythology of Wonder Woman & her meta-textual themes and context in the real world.

Wonder Woman Historia Part Eight: The Regeneration

May 23, 2020 by Ritesh Babu

Welcome! Historia is a brand new bi-monthly series that will be examining The Amazing Amazon’s rich history. The feature will span the war-haunted Golden Ages in which she was forged, through the sweeping currents of The Silver Age, the shifts of The Bronze Age, the trials of The Dark Age, all the way to The Renaissance and The Prismatic Age of the modern century.

We’ll be looking at and discussing the various influences and archetypal antecedents that underlie the Wonder Legend, the power of the conceits it upholds, the politics of the whole enterprise, the terrifying nature of myths and narratives, and how the character and property have changed, evolved, or even regressed. What is this curious little experiment that began under a polyamorous polymath psychologist that became an icon of the feminist movement and a vital corporate symbol? Let’s dig in.

Sink Your Teeth into the Best Vampire Comics of All Time

October 19, 2019 by John Galati Leave a Comment

Every culture on Earth seems to have its own vampire myth:

  • The Lilitu of Ancient Mesopotamia
  • The Mandurug of the Philippine Islands
  • The Cihuateteo of the Aztecs
  • The Asanbosam of the Ashanti people of Africa
  • The Strega of Italy

Heck, the most recent creation of a vampire myth comes as late as post-Civil War America! In 1892, Mercy Brown was blamed posthumously for the outbreak of “consumption” in Rhode Island. The family exhumed her body. A doctor examined her lack of decay. And then her heart was removed and burnt to ash on church grounds.
