Chirpin’ Tuesday Reviews 09/23/15

Adventure Time #44 (Boom!)
NickZ: Really fun issue, had me laughing out loud several times and a great cover by my pal, Derek Hunter!

Astro City #27 (Vertigo)
Martin: 4.5/5 stars. Another character-driven winner with a focus on American Chibi with a fun dichotomy of real-word & chibi-world.

Avatar: The Last Airbender – Smoke and Shadow (Dark Horse)
Infinite Speech: Gene has handled these stories so perfectly it’s like the show never ended!

Batgirl #44 (DC)
NickZ: This relationship came out of nowhere but I’m all for it!

book of death 3Book of Death #3 (Valiant)
Infinite Speech: This event doesn’t look like it’ll have a happy ending for the good guys but at least it’s great for us!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #19 (Dark Horse)
NickZ: Dawn and Buffy! Buffy and Giles! I can’t deal with all these feels!

Deadpool vs Thanos #2 (Marvel)
NickZ: The Strangest team-up in history #TobagganBrothers

Flash #44 (DC)
Infinite Speech: For a guy that runs fast he just can’t seem to get ahead.
Martin: 3/5 stars. I still feel like Thawne’s lackeys were swayed way too easily to just trust him that Flash is evil.

Fight Club 2 #5 (Dark Horse)
NickZ: Talk about bleeding for your art! Things get dark, even for Fight Club.

Fury S.H.I.E.L.D. 50th Anniversary #1 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: David Walker found a great way to bring Nick Fury and Fury Jr. together for one hell of a time displacement story.

Gotham by Midnight #9 (DC)
Martin: 4/5 stars. I certainly wasn’t expecting that last page. Now that this title’s canceled, I hope we’ll get a true end.
NickZ: How the f*** is this book cancelled when it has killer writing and art!?!

Grayson #12 (DC)
Arnab: This is DC’s best series right now. That Dick and Damian reunion tho
NickZ: What an emotional issue! I only wish Dick would have talked to Tim and Jason separately seeing as how their relationships are completely different.

he man 10 He-Man: The Eternity War #10 (DC)
Infinite Speech: That was a hell of a twist at the end! You should be reading this series!

Inhumans Attilan Rising #5 (Marvel)
NickZ: This was a great series. The ending was perfect with a nice Twilight Zone style ending.

IX Generation #5 (Top Cow)
Infinite Speech: As far as dysfunctional families go, this one has got to be the worst. Can’t wait to see how it all ends!

John Carter: Warlord of Mars #11 (Dynamite)
Infinite Speech: Another round of great storytelling from this creative team. I’m definitely becoming more of a John Carter fan now.

Kanan – The Last Padawan #6 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Weisman, Camagni, & Curiel are giving us one of the BEST Star Wars titles coming out of Marvel!
NickZ: It was great the way they tied Kanan’s past into the present Star Wars Rebels story.

Oddly Normal #10 (Image)
Infinite Speech: Otis Frampton is giving you all-ages greatness here so do yourself a favor and start reading this series!
NickZ: I’m so sad that this series is not continuing in single issue form but I am grateful that it will continue in book form and I will definitely be picking them up!

Over the Garden Wall #2 (Boom!)
NickZ: Fred the Horse is shady AF!

Princeless: Be Yourself #4 (Action Lab)
Infinite Speech: It’s good to see these Princeless titles are still awesome after all this time!

Red Sonja #18 (Dynamite)
Infinite Speech: Gail Simone can do NO wrong with Sonja. None!

Runaways #4 (Marvel)runaways 4
NickZ: What a fun little series. Valeria and Bucky’s final moments were heartbreaking.

TechJacket #11 (Image)
Infinite Speech: Keatinge, Randolph, & Lopez go really big in this issue and it pays off!
NickZ: The perfect blend of robot space action and heartfelt father/son bonding!

The Tithe #5 (Image)
Infinite Speech: This second arc is set to be even bigger and better than the first!
NickZ: The 2nd arc starts with a bang and ends with a twist! Don’t miss out on this great series!

We are Robin #4 (DC)
Arnab: Easily, the best issue yet.
Infinite Speech: Great story! Great Art! And a Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth reference in one emotional issue!
Martin: 4/5 stars. I love that Bermejo & team decided to focus on just one of the Robins & tell her story. Cool Batgirl guest-spot.
NickZ: I loved the surreal art and the Lord of the Flies parallels!

X-Tinction Agenda #4 (Marvel)
NickZ: Things ended in a boom! Genosha can’t ever seem to catch a break!

Years of Future Past #5 (Marvel)
Arnab: That was a weird ending. For so many different reasons.
NickZ: Not the ending I was expecting at all. It definitely leaves you with something to think about.
