review 1: X-23 is a great new character to enjoy but I loved seeing infrequent characters such as Gambit and Jubilee again. Though I enjoyed the Spiderman crossover, I am not sure the Future Federation was necessary for the plot. (Unfortunately the first volume in the series was unavaila...

review 1: I’m giving this book 5 stars because the author writes such fine prose, you would think she is far older than her picture on Amazon implies. She is polished, she is talented and she is smart. I really am happy to discover her books and will definitely be reading quite a few of th...

review 1: i am so glad my library got this book on loan for me from a larger library system. I have followed this series, and was excited to see what was in store for Maxine Kiss, and her new husband Grant. It turns out that there is plenty to dive right into, and get involved in.Something...

review 1: A graphic novel written by a woman that features amazing art by Will Conrad should be impressive, but it couldn’t make me see past the large issues I had with the narrative of X-23.X-23, a.k.a. Laura, is the teenage clone/daughter of Wolverine who was raised in a lab to be the pe...

review 1: I found it more difficult to read this second book than the first book of the series; I think it's more my fault than the story, since when I did have time to read in big chunks, I was completely engrossed. But big chunks of time were limited the past few weeks, despite a week at...

review 1: Although I like the characters… I like the writing when the characters are interacting… I just can’t get into the apocalyptic, time traveling, puzzle-solving without all of the pieces storyline…Zee, Dek, Mal, Raw and Aaz are cute little demon/zombie fighters… who live as tattoos ...

review 1: This is another Dirk & Steele novel and I loved this one because I FINALLY get Eddie's backstory. What can I say but I love firestarters (blame that one on Stephen King).The story is dark and in some spots caught me by surprise, which is a good thing. I didn't feel bored or lost ...

review 1: Sadly, this big event comic is pretty bad. It starts off quite strong, with a nice return of the Marauders and a group that at first appeared to be (but apparently was not) the Reavers. There's mystery and some out-of-sequence storytelling, and it's all for the good.Then the plot...

review 1: Once more, this TPB collection is pretty inconsistent, a matter not altogether helped by the different artists (Noto's art, while not bad, seems worse when placed so directly in contrast against Takeda's gorgeous work). A carefree if absurd inter-dimensional fluff story involving...

review 1: I didn't really enjoy this collection either. Leaving off from the last volume, the X-Men go off to find their missing teammate Karma, with shocking revelations.The story is disjointed, and the flashbacks that explain everything are near the end of the book.The villain is so over...
