Assorted Media of March: Comic Reviews
Apr. 8th, 2016 07:34 pmMs. Marvel Volume 4: The End - I continue to love the tone, the 50s Superboy “earnest and positive” tone. This resolves a bunch of the ongoing plots in advance of Marvel’s universal “soft reboot”.
Catwoman Volume 6: Keeper of the Castle - This reminds me very much of a Vampire: The Masquerade campaign, in that there are deeply complicated underground/nightlife politics that a semi-heroic protagonist is trying to steer vaguely towards good (and making terrible choices to do so); punctuated with brief extreme violence.
Faith #1 (Valiant Comics) - Plus-size superwoman Faith “Zephyr” Herbert leaves her super-hero team to strike out with a new secret identity and a solo hero career to explore. Unfortunately, the fact that Faith isn’t drawn as a top-heavy Barbie doll is really the only thing that sets this apart.
