Chirpin’ Tuesday Reviews 08/09/17

Accel #3 (Lion Forge)
Infinite Speech: The art and layout designs really steal the show!

Action Comics #985 (DC)
NickZ: Lex and Superman’s team-up lasts about as long as you’d expect it to.

Adventure Time #67 (Boom!)
NickZ: Adventure Time did both The Wizard of OZ and Indiana Jones in one issue! It’s obvious McGinty was having a field day drawing these pages!

All-New Wolverine #23 (Marvel)
NickZ; It’s always fun times when the X-Men fight the Brood, but you throw in the Guardians of the Galaxy and now you’ve got yourself a real party!

Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #13 (DC)
NickZ: I love that a femalecentric book ends with the heroes and villains overcoming their differences and working together!

Captain America #25 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Plenty of surprises here from Wakanda to Atlantis but a new Inhman with a pretty gross power just might turn things around.

Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe Again #3 (Marvel)
NickZ: It was a clever plot twist to connect this series to another dystopian Marvel story.

Defenders #4 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Iron Fist gets some payback and Marquez makes it look fantastic!

Detective Comics #962 (DC)
NickZ: Bruce and Zatanna’s side story was really great in this arc and it massively paid off in the ending of the Azrael main story.

Edge of Venomverse #4 (Marvel)
NickZ: They already had a Laura (Wolverine) Venom, did they really need to do an Old Man Logan Venom too?

First Strike #1 (IDW)
Infinite Speech: Transformers, Joes, and plenty of traitors in another huge Hasbroverse crossover event!

Flash #28 (DC)
Infinite Speech: Barry is now Negative Flash in more ways than one.

Generations Phoenix & Jean Grey #1 (Marvel)
Arnab: I don’t actually remember old Jean being this strong.
NickZ:
This really makes me want the REAL Jean Grey-Summers to come back into the X-Men books!
Infinite Speech: If Marvel could get rid of Jean alltogether that would be great.

Gotham Academy #12 (DC)
NickZ: A great ending to a super fun series! This better not be the last we see of Mia “Maps” Mizoguchi!

Jean Grey #5 (Marvel)
Arnab: Young Jean continues her journey to be prepared for when the Phoenix comes for her, and it’s actually quite good. 
NickZ:
It’s interesting to see how training with Thor and Psylocke is changing Jean into much more of a physical fighter than her adult counterpart ever was.

Justice League of America #12 (DC)
NickZ: Another forgettable adventure where the Justice League fight another forgettable villain.

Low #19 (Image)
NickZ: The girls finally score a major victory, lets hope they are not leading humanity to it’s doom!

Mister Miracle #1 (DC)
NickZ: I’m not sure what exactly i was expecting with this book but whatever it was, they surpassed it! This series is going to be something special, don’t miss it!
Infinite Speech: One of my longtime favorites is back and everyone should read this!

Old Man Logan #27 (Marvel)
NickZ: This issue ends with the team-up we’ve all been waiting to see since the original Old Man Logan!

Red Hood and the Outlaws #13 (DC)
NickZ: It amazes me how much of an impact Bizarro has had on Jason, Artemis, and Luthor in such a short amount of time.

Secret Empire #8 (Marvel)
Arnab: This wasn’t a bad series, is just wasn’t an exciting one either.
NickZ:
After all this time and trouble, all the obstacles in the heroes way conveniently and simultaneously got solved. REALLY?
Infinite Speech: I think this is stronger if you’ve read Captain America #25 but it’s still a solid issue.

Think Tank Animal #4 (Top Cow)
NickZ: Think Tank is one of the best, most well rounded comic books out there! If you’ve never read it, do yourself a favor and give it a chance so this doesn’t have to be the end.
Infinite Speech: I’m tired of praising one of the best comic series to come from Top Cow so just go buy Think Tank and see how great it is for yourself!

The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #23 (Marvel)
NickZ: Oh my great God-Doom! Considering the current American political climate, Stefan is really winning me over on Latveria.

Venom #153 (Marvel)
NickZ: The Venom symbiote bonding with dinosaurs is always awesome, especially when it’s drawn by Gerardo Sandoval!

The Wicked + The Divine #30 (Image)
Arnab: It is the end times for the Pantheon, time to see who makes it out.
NickZ
: Things are really getting dark as we build to the big climax! (No, really, Dionysus was literally sitting in the dark the entire issue!)

    You guys don’t seem to think that Secret Empire is as bad as what people are saying it is. Though it does sound like every other Marvel event that’s come along lately
