Review: The New Girl
As a huge fan of Cassandra Calin, I had to check out The New Girl. I don’t care if I’m not the target audience, there’s no way I was going ot miss it. The New Girl tells a relatable story about a young girl who just had her entire life uprooted, and during one of the most vulnerable times in her life (puberty).
Review: Exceptional X-Men Vol. 1
Six new series popped up at the beginning of From the Ashes (and many others followed), including Exceptional X-Men. This team offered a slightly different take on the mutant team thing, focusing on the newest generation, with unwilling teachers at the helm.
Review: Cryptid Club
Cryptid Club is more of a slice-of-life style comic, and I love it. Created by Sarah Andersen, I was always going to make time to read the whole set. It just took me longer than intended.
Review: The Apothecary Diaries (Light Novel): Volume 1
I have been a huge fan of The Apothecary Diaries since I picked up the first manga volume, just in time to get caught up before the anime aired. Now I’m stuck waiting for the next volume and season to drop, so I decided to dive headfirst into the Light Novels.
Review: The Night Eaters Vol. 3: Their Kingdom Come
I’m not going to lie, I’m pretty sad that The Night Eaters Vol. 3 is the conclusion to this series. It’s been so good! I love this team (Majorie M. Liu and Sana Takeda are magic, you can’t convince me otherwise).
Review: X-Men Vol. 1: Homecoming
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.
Review: Absolute Batman Vol. 1: The Zoo
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.
Review: Phoenix Vol. 1: Orbital Resonance
Of course, Jean Grey is getting a solo series during Marvel’s From the Ashes. It would be strange if she didn’t, right? Phoenix Vol. 1 really lets Jean/Phoenix off the leash, sending her off into the larger universe, and boy, are the stakes high.
