Chirpin’ Tuesday Reviews 04/01/15

The Amazing Spamazing spiderman 17ider-Man #17 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: I’m pretty sure that Anna Maria is THE BEST new Marvel character to come around in a long time!
NickZ: Anna Maria Marconi is THE BEST woman in Peter’s life EVER! I can’t love here anymore than I do!

Angel & Faith #13 (Dark Horse)
NickZ: Illyria is back with a vengeance! Poor little Fred.

Arkham Manor Endgame #1 (DC)
NickZ: This didn’t actually make sense to me, but whatever.

Avengers #43 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Loving this Time Runs Out storyline but what’s coming next has me nervous

Batman Eternal #52 (DC)
Arnab: There’s no way Gotham nearly destroys itself and Dick Grayson doesn’t return to help out. C’mon!
Martin: 4.5/5 stars. People seem to be wanting to nitpick this, but it was a strong, satisfying finish to this series.
NickZ: The Bat-family is eternal! All and all, this was a great series, the only thing missing was Dick.

Batman and Robin Annual #3 (DC)
Arnab: Damian in space is awesome.
Martin: 4.5/5 stars. Man, I am going to miss this book. What a FUN way to finish the series, and REALLY great art as well.
NickZ: This was a waste of 5 bucks. Batman and Robin in space just doesn’t work.

Batman Superman Annual #2 (DC)
Arnab: Say what?
Martin: 4/5 stars. Some good art here, and a slightly different story. The real treat for this is the surprise ending.
NickZ: A de-powered Superman and Batman face a grip of baddies and the ending is shocking!

Black Science #13 (Image)
NickZ: Remender and Scalera had me feeling the feels before THAT ending! Who knew a science fiction epic could be so emotional.

Convergence #0 (DC)
Arnab: Well that was a hot mess.
Infinite Speech: It’s Secret Wars but in the DCU it’s called “Convergence”.
Martin: 3.5/5 stars. The main “draw” (heyo!) here is the art of some cool pre-New 52 stuff, & the world-guide at the end.
NickZ: Not a bad start to this crazy event. As long as we get some pre-52 DC Universe back, that’s all I really care about.

cyclops 12Cyclops #12 (Marvel)
Arnab: That’s a whole lotta power.
NickZ: This Black Vortex is getting out of hand. At this rate, everyone will be cosmically powered by the end.

Dying and the Dead #2 (Image)
Infinite Speech: Add it to your pull list now.

Earth 2 World’s End #26 (DC)
Martin: 2/5 stars. After some good issues the past weeks, this is a huge letdown. DC’s 1 for 3 on finales this week.

The Ghost Fleet #6 (Dark Horse)
Infinite Speech: The scene at the giant door was the best moment in comics this week!

Gotham Academy Endgame #1 (DC)
NickZ: I can’t express my love for this series enough. This issue with “scary” Joker stories was so perfect.

Iron Fist: The Living Weapon #11 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Kaare Andrews has made Iron Fist & the K’un Lun mythology all his own in this fantastic series!

IXth Generation #3 (Top Cow)
Infinite Speech: Hawkins & Sejic deliver great story and great art! What more could you ask for?!

Kanan The Last Padawan #1 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Larraz’s art is phenomenal here and the story isn’t half bad either.
NickZ: This maybe my favorite of the Star Wars comic books yet. I am so glad that Weisman is writing this and Larraz art is amazing.

Lady Killer #4 (Dark Horse)
Infinite Speech: This is one of those titles you tell your friends to read!

The Li’l Depressed Boy #4 (Image)
NickZ: If you have ever felt awkward in life and relationships, then this is the most relatable book you will ever read!

New 52 Futures End #48 (DC)
Martin: 3/5 stars. I love Lemire but this ending was a true disappointment. It’s not even really an “ending.”

Penny Dora and the Wishing Box #4 (Image)
NickZ: Penny is learning that power corrupts and absolute power can corrupt absolutely, even the people we care about.

Rocket Raccoon #10 (Marvel)
NickZ: We need to have more Cosmo in this book. His throw-down with Rocket was priceless.

Southern Bastards #8 (Image)southern bastards 8
Infinite Speech: Uh oh! Roberta is headed home and it’s about to go down! This is a great series so far!

Spider-Gwen #3 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Can ANYONE keep their secret identity anymore?
NickZ: This series just gets better and better with each new issue. Latour and Rodriguez are killing it!

Superman Wonder Woman #17 (DC)
Martin: 3/5 stars. I’ve liked this book for the interactions between Supes & WW but nothing “new” happens this issue.
NickZ: I am so over this relationship. I honestly think Diana is too much woman for Clark.

Tech Jacket #9 (Image)
Infinite Speech: If you like sci-fi, great art, and a fun story then this is the title for you.
NickZ: If you like fun adventure books with incredible art then you need to be reading this title! One of the most underrated books out there.

Teen Titans Annual #1 (DC)
Arnab: Dear Power Girl and Wonder Girl, kindly step off. I’m glad Superboy is back.
NickZ: Superboy is back and some people are not too happy about it.

Uncanny Avengers #3 (Marvel)
NickZ: This is interesting but I hope at the end of the day, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver find out that they are really Magneto’s kids and this has been all some kind of trick.

The Uncanny Inhumans #0 (Marvel)
Infinite Speech: Not sure what to make of it yet but a solid issue.
NickZ: Yo Black Bolt, I’m happy for you and I’mma let you finish, but Cyclops had the best “sending my son into the time-stream to save his life” moment.

Wolf Moon #5 (Vertigo)
Infinite Speech: Bunn and Huan are delivering the best werewolf story I’ve read in a very long time!

Wolverines #13 (Marvel)
NickZ: Who knew that the only thing you needed to do to make this book good was make it about Deadpool?

Wonder Woman #40 (DC)xo manowar 35
NickZ: This story is still going strong but I thought David Finch’s art was a bit weak at places in this issue. I guess everyone has an off day.

The Woods 12 (Boom!)
NickZ: The ending to year one was fantastic. Another great underrated series that you should be reading!

X-O Manowar #35 (Valiant)
Infinite Speech: Valiant’s flagship title continues to kick all kinds of butt and doesn’t show any signs of slowing down!
