Move Over Manga: Minx Has Arrived
I am so excited for the Minx Line! Yay DC! Doin' a little something for the ladies (and the open-minded gentlemen). The Minx Line, as you have read in other posts on comicsalliance.com, is a new line coming out from DC that is focused on young adults...
The Chronicles of Wormwood
Written by Garth EnnisArt by Jacen Burrows
I have to admit that I am generally not a Garth Ennis fan. Not that I don't think he can write well, because I do, but more because what he writes tends to be filled with more violence and gore than I can handle...
Welcome to Tranquility
Written by Gail SimoneArt by Neil GoogeWelcome to Tranquility is a title that thus far I have enjoyed immensely. It is about a town, Tranquility, where super heroes and super villains both go to enjoy their retirements. Tranquility is also home to the heroes' families...
Local #8 – Food as Substitute
By Brain WoodArt by Ryan Kelly
I cannot say enough good things about the Local series. I am obsessed with it and as it doesn't seem to be running on any sort of schedule it is very frustrating to wait for.
This issue of Local takes us to Wicker Park, Chicago (part of the charm of Local is that each issue takes a place in a different location, the illustration of which is as accurate as possible)

Ghost Rider: The Movie
The Ghost Rider movie is a pretty fun time. It is certainly not going to win any awards, but it was entertaining and managed to pull together a story about a character that I have never really been all that interested in.
The story was not the greatest thing I have ever seen, but at least there were no magical gas caps involved...

How can I say this nicely...Civil War #7 is not that good. There are really very few fine qualities to this book. It is a disappointing end to a story that showed great promise in the beginning

The Mighty Skullboy Army
The Mighty Skullboy ArmyBy Jacob Chabot
The Mighty Skullboy Army is a very fun book. It was created by Jacob Chabot, who writes for "Mad Kids Magazine" and "Nickelodeon Magazine", which I was not aware existed. These influences on his writing are very obvious, as The Might Skullboy Army tells uncomplicated tales that are still very entertaining...
Spider-Man Reign
Are you reading Spider-Man Reign? If not, you should be. This mini-series is breathing a life into the character of Spider-Man that has not been seen for years. Freed from the ties that mire Spider-Man in his current continuity, Spider-Man Reign takes Peter Parker to a place that is both upsetting and riveting

Wormwood Gentleman Corpse 5
Wormwood Gentleman Corpse is a fun, original and slightly disgusting comic. This fifth issue starts the second story arch of the series written and illustrated by Ben Templesmith. Templesmith is best known for his work illustrating 30 Days of Night...
