Valkyrie: Jane Foster (2019) #3
Jane take Heimdall on his final journey. Writers Jason Aaron and Al Ewing do there best to send Heimdall off, but with so many diverse artists (Cafu, Frazer Irving, Ramon Perez, Cian Tormey) it feels very fragmented. 3/5
Captain Marvel (2019) #10
Confronting Star, Carol outs her as a villain. Writer Kelly Thompson has been building to this and doesn’t disappoint. Artist Carmen Carnero and color artist Tamra Bonvillain bring character nuance to every panel. 4/5
Frankenstein Undone #1
The Monster seeks isolation in the Arctic wastes. Writers Mike Mignola and Scott Allie bridge the gap between Shelley’s novel and the Hellboy ‘verse in grim, but fascinating fashion. Artist Ben Stenbeck and colorist Brennan Wagner are inexorable. 4.5/5
Avengers (2018) #23
Avengers Mountain is possessed. Writer Jason Aaron lets his Marvel Supernatural freak fly in this silly - if somewhat slight - romp. Artist Stefano Caselli and colorist Jason Keith do some amazing and imaginative work. 3/5
Tony Stark: Iron Man (2018) #15
Tony comes out as A.I. Writers Dan Slott and Jim Zub keep the balls in the air, while addressing some interesting moral questions, but I’m not sure where it’s all leading. Artists Juanan Ramírez & Francisco Manna, with colorist Edgar Delgado. 3/5
Heist, or How to Steal a Planet #3
The Conqueror Crows attempt to terminate Glane Breld. Writer Paul Tobin conquers up twisted humor and indelicate plot lines with playful ease. Artist Arjun Susini and colorist Vittorio Astone fill every panel with marvelous malevolence! 4/5
Star Wars (2015) #70
Han and Leia hideout in the Lanz Carpo honeymoon suite. Writer Greg Pak is doing good work juggling the three different sets of characters and plot-lines. Artist Phil Noto’s storytelling is unparalleled in its clarity. 4/5
Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (2019) #9
Retreat, replan and Rumor. Writer Tom Taylor takes a brief (hopefully) respite to tell Rumor’s backstory. Artist Juann Cabal handles the flashback and artist Ken Lashley works the present, making the different styles less intrusive. 3/5
Death or Glory #8
Glory’s ride to Mexico is interrupted. Writer Rick Remender Brings the biting dialogue and lets artist Bengal lay out a massive dose of kick-ass action-packed panels of car-chase madness! 5/5
Rat Queens #20
The resurrected Rat Queens take down King Gary! Writer Ryan Ferrier Ryan’s ends this arc with a number of clever twisted turns. Artist Priscilla Petraites and color artist Marco Lesko’s combined rendering and storytelling have reached a new level of excellence. 5/5
