Image Comics Writers: Kyle Higgins & Joe Clark Art: Felipe Watanabe Colors: Frank William Letters: Clayton Cowles Another chapter of Higgins and Clark’s series on immortals turned mortals was released last week in the fourth issue of Ordinary Gods. The series follows Christopher as his life takes a turn when his whole family is suddenly murdered by his younger sister, Brianna. Christopher then learns he is a reincarnation of a god from another world called the Luminary. Along with other four individuals, Christopher is supposed to break out of Earth which is actually a prison designed for these lost…

BRZRKR #5 Publisher: BOOM! Comics Writer: Matt Kindt & Keanu Reeves Art: Ron Garney Letters: Clem Robins Last week we got the first issue in the second volume of BOOM’s BRZRKR. A comic book series about an immortal god who lives his eternal days as cannon fodder for whoever is willing to help him die. The premise is quite interesting, despite not being brand new and BRZRKR has its charms for the approach it’s chosen until now. The new volume begins with Diana visiting B. at his home. She states that she’s decided to approach his memory problem in…

Image Comics Writer: Rick Remender Art: Chris O’Halloran Letters: Rus Wooton This week Image Comics releases another first issue. This one deviates a bit from its recent superhero era and brings it back to what drew me in towards the publisher’s titles in the first place: mystery and artistic expression. This is what I thought of the first issue of Rick Remender and André Araújo’s A Righteous Thirst for Vengeance. It’s rather challenging to describe the story that’s told in this first chapter whilst avoiding any spoilers. Choosing to keep the final pages from you, dear reader, I can only…

Image Comics Writer: Patrick Kindlon Art: Marco Ferrari Letters: Jim Campbell Coming out this week is yet another entry to what seems to be the new era of recurring superhero series at Image Comics. Frontiersman #1 brings an engaging premise associated with a new vision on the superhero genre. The first issue starts off with an old man, dressed as your stereotypical lumberjack walking through a forest while talking to someone he’s related to. From the cover we know this to be our protagonist, The Frontiersman, a retired superhero who now lives away from society. He interrupts his call…

Image Comics Writer: Geoff Johns Art: Gary Frank & Brad Anderson Letters: Rob Leigh Another title of the most recent original superhero era at Image reaches the end of its first volume. Despite being developed by a dream team the eyes on the big picture might have undermined Geiger for Image readers. Ok, first off, my first statement may seem too judgmental, but this last chapter starts off with what I think is the problem with this issue and with what creators Geoff Johns and Gary Frank intend to do with the series. The first pages lay the foundation to…

Last of the Irin #3 Author: Rob McMillan Artist: Arseny Popov The third and final chapter for Anahita’s saga is upon us! With a conclusion max-sized issue of around a hundred and forty pages, here’s what to expect of the ending for this crazy ride Rob McMillan brought us on. The third issue starts off with a flashback to Earth, around 130 B.C. where we learn the Sirusians were experimenting and enslaving the ancestors of what we know today as the human kind. We see right away that human ancestry was not easy to contain. A Sirusians scientist, also dubbed…

Image Comics Writers: J.H. Williams III & Haden Blackman Art: J.H. Williams III Colors: Dave Stewart Letters: Rodd Klein As I’m sure I’ve made clear in my Promethea review, I love myself some crazy paneling filled with stunning artwork. Pair that up with a fantastical worldbuilding and you have me sold on a comic book. Echolands is easily the book I’ve been anticipating the most for this year and it’s finally here! Right off the bat, on the cover, one can deduce this is a comic book working on classical fairy tales, specially Red Riding Hood fable. This suspicion…

Vinyl #1 Image Comics Writer: Doug Wagner Art: Daniel Hillyard Colors: Dave Stewart Letters: Ed Dukeshire A friendship between a bloody serial killer with a vinyl fixation and the FBI agent charged with capturing him isn’t exactly expected. However, it was this unexpected pair that caught my attention for this week’s review: Image Comics’s new title Vinyl. The first issue starts off two days from the story’s present and displays to the readers a cumbersome situation. Some sort of zombie is about to hack the FBI agent, Dennis, with an ax and our serial killer protagonist, Walter, seems to be…

Jupiter’s Legacy: Requiem #1 Image Comics Writers: Mark Millar Art: Tommy Lee Edwards Letters: John Workman A few months back, after I got notice that the release of Netflix’s Jupiter’s Legacy was near, I finally got around to reading the comics. I’d been avoiding Mark Millar for a while since my last review of his The Magic Order comic but I decided to give it a go. Jupiter’s Legacy, and its spin-off titles were written before TMO and yet are surprisingly better, in my opinion. That being said I was pretty hyped when I got word a sequel to the…

Wynd #7 BOOM! Studios Writers: James Tynion IV Art: Michael Dialynas Letters: Andworld Design After a few months, BOOM is, at last, release the second part of Wynd’s story. A story about a world of fantasy shut away from a boy belongs to it. A story about self-discovery, friendship, and adventure. I’m really glad, Wynd is back on the stands. Issue #7 of Wynd’s story starts off with Titus, the ex-cook at Molly’s bodega, and Ash, the ex-gardener at the King’s castle, both being called in prison by Basil, the King’s right-hand man and also loyal to the Duke, the…
