SUPERPOWERS REVIEWED: Telepathy (and Professor X)

October 15, 2019 by John Galati 1 Comment

This Installment: Telepathy

“We are inclined to suppose…this knowledge has transferred from him to her…through unknown ways and with exclusion of the communication methods that everybody knows. Therefore, our conclusion should be that thought transmission exists.”— Sigmund Freud

NEW AVENGERS #32 Review: “Are You There, Beyonders? It’s Me, Thor!”

March 28, 2015 by Matt Lehn 1 Comment

For a series touting “Everything Dies” as its mantra since inception, there is some pretty clear intent. However, the make-good on that promise doesn’t ease the blow any – no matter how much it’s projected. After thinning some of the support cast last time, this week writer Jonathan Hickman turns to the Multiversal Avengers, culling from Earth’s Mightiest in “The Fall of Gods.” [Read more…] about NEW AVENGERS #32 Review: “Are You There, Beyonders?

AVENGERS #42 Review: “Oh, Wait– Aliens Still Hate Us…”

March 7, 2015 by Matt Lehn 7 Comments

This week’s Avengers recovers a lot of buoyancy lost over the last couple of installments. Packed to the gills with scene changes and cast galore, Jonathan Hickman goes into overdrive crunching Marvel’s multiverse toward the Summer 2015 Secret Wars. With his run on Earth’s Mightiest wrapping in April, the writer’s renewed urgency is ably accompanied by some of artist Stefano Caselli’s strongest work. It’s such a well-paced visual delight that you almost forget a coalition of intergalactic empires is heading to Earth to pre-emptively end it.

AVENGERS #41 Review: “The Other Shoe”

February 6, 2015 by Matt Lehn 2 Comments

Continuing the recent trend of stealth-releasing chapters of Jonathan Hickman’s epic, this week’s Avengers has the added distinction of being the most speculated installment yet. Curiously featuring the repurposed cover to 2002’s Ultimates 1, there is actually very little interior content that could otherwise prepare the reader for what’s in store without ruining massive surprises. Narratively, it’s a bit of a sidestep from the usual splintered dysfunction of Earth’s Mightiest, focusing instead on other aspects just as integral to the bigger picture of the upcoming Secret Wars.

AVENGERS #40 Review: “A Song of Fish and Cats!”

January 16, 2015 by Matt Lehn Leave a Comment

Spoilers abound in this latest portion of Jonathan Hickman’s ramp-up to Secret Wars. Well, it’s not so much spoilers– plural- as it is a single one that informs all of the action within this oversized issue. For those following since Hickman assumed control of the Avengers franchise back in late 2012, there is tremendous payoff regarding one of the major backbeats of the Illuminati-centric New Avengers portion of his story. Like, “Holy-insert-expletive-of your-choice, I can’t believe that actually happened!” amounts. [Read more…] about AVENGERS #40 Review: “A Song of Fish and Cats!”
