Comic & Manga Reviews
The bright side to being behind on a series is that you can binge-read a couple of volumes back to back. Love Everlasting Vol. 2 probably doesn’t hit as hard as the first volume, but it’s still worth reading. That said, I still have a million questions.
If you love horror, romance (with tragedy), and time loops, Love Everlasting Vol. 1 is the story for you. It’s a little bit like Groundhog Day, if Groundhog Day revolved around falling in love.
Okay, there are a few key phrases you can waggle in my face that will get me to read an X-Men series. “Rogue-led” is one of them, and “Written by Gail Simone” is another. So, I knew I was going to check out Uncanny X-Men the moment it was announced.
It’s a new era for the X-Men, and only time will tell if that’s for the best. That said, I’m happy to see that Scott is in charge of at least one of the X-Men teams. His team feels a little like coming back home for the X-Men. There are new twists, obviously, but there always will be.
Let’s be real: we all knew that the Absolute Batman series was going to be phenomenal. Scott Snyder was tasked with finding a new (but still somewhat familiar) take on the beloved hero, and he nailed it.
The dramatic adventures of the first volume teased a bigger bad working behind the scenes, and it looks like Birds of Prey Vol. 2 continues to carry that plot. Given that our Barbara Gordon is the first target, it’s hard not to feel a bit invested in how things turn out.
Oh man, I am so happy that Birds of Prey is back in action! Honestly, I don’t even care that the team members have changed (since the last time I read it); I’m just happy for more chaotic fun.
