Unqualified Comics

Tales of the Teen Titans Annual #3 Marv Wolfman George Perez This extra sized annual is packed with action as things finally come to head at the HIVE HQ. Can Nightwing and Jericho save the other Titans?

Graveyard Shift Volume 3 Mark Poulton Aaron Alfeche While Graveyard Shift isn't really top on my list of CG books I have to say I liked volume 3, specifically the middle/2nd part of this book. Also a pleasant surprise to get a full story in this book. Aaron Alfeche is slowly becoming a top tier talent.

The Fantastic Four #1 Stan Lee Jack Kirby While dated by todays standard, this comic was game changer in the early 60's. Stan and Jack redefined the American Comicbook and kicked of an era of amazing stories.

WireHead Robert Geronimo Michael O'Shea An interesting indie horror comic. I'm not really a horror comic fan but, I like to read them once and a while to mix it up.

Blacksad - Somewhere Within The Shadows Juan Diaz Canales Jaunjo Guarnido I ignored this book for a while because of the art style. I was wrong, very wrong. Blacksad is an outstanding comic book.

One Piece Volume 43 Eiichiro Oda The core team of Zoro, Nami, and Sanji take care of business while Franky and Usopp save Robin. The climax of this arc is coming up!

Tales of the Teen Titans #44 Marv Wolfman George Perez A slower issue that mainly goes over Deathstrokes background. A bit of an exposition dump but, historically important as the introduction of Nightwing and Jericho.

Vagabond Takehiko Inoue [Based on the novel "Musashi" by Eiji Yoshikawa"] Seriously this manga is awesome and the original novel Musashi is also amazing but, Viz can blow me for the awful print quality of these English translations. Perfect binding still sucks. Long live saddle stitching!

The Amazing Spider-Man #2 Stan Lee Steve Ditko Finishing up this series on the beginning of Spider-man, I go over issue 2 which introduces the Vulture and is the beginning of Peter Parkers long running (and hilarious) business relationship with JJ.

Starlight Cats Shane Davis Yanzi Lin Well.... that was a pleasant surprise.

The Mermaids MJ. Negueruela Stefan Petrucha David Lorenzo Kris Renkewitz Produced by Adam Post There has been a bit of controversy over Adam Posts crowdfunded productions and I go over his latest one in this video.

Sonic City Witch #1 Trisha Cuffari Alex Lopez Outstanding first issue by Dannphan. Especially for an indie creator and for the price. Seriously, pick it up, it's great. https://burningstarcomics.net/product/sonic-city-witch-1/

The Lucent - Waking Dream Michael Bancroft I'm starting to think I'm yelling into the void about storytelling. Either that or I just need to really cut down on the number of books I back.

Impossible Stars Richard C. Meyer Chuck Dixon Renzo Rodriguez When you get past the awful cover and the rough opening pages.... this book is great.

3 Knights 4 Days Micah Curtis Preston Asevedo Why are we here? Just to suffer?

Computer still down for the count, here is some updates on future reviews.

A fun lil video to tide you guys over whiley computer gets repaired.

Tales of the Teen Titans #43 Marv Wolfman George Perez The trap is finally sprung on the titans and Death Stroke and Terra wipe out the majority of the team. Only Dick Grayson (Robin) is left to pick up the pieces is this action packed issue.

Cyberfrog Unfroggetable Tales #3 Ethan Van Sciver Kyle Ritter Eric Weathers Part of the Warts and All Ominbus IGG campaign, this little comic is a lost piece of comic history though probably for a good reason. Can't hate on the now standard and still amazing production quality of All Caps Comics.

One Piece Volume 42 Eiichiro Oda Shonen Manga lovers delight: Tons of Fights, Crazy Abilities, Power Ups, and Hot Semi-Naked Women. Oda is a master.

Thorgal - Beyond the Shadows G. Rosinski J. Van Hamme Another great BD. Honestly, I feel like I have to take some breaks from doing Thorgal videos are I'll end up being a European comic shill.

The Amazing Spider-Man #1 Stan Lee Steve Ditko An awesome 2 story issue with a appearance of the Fantastic Four. Classic Marvel Comics.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #21 Kevin Eastman Peter Laird Jim Lawson While still visually engaging. The ending to this arc is a bit hectic and the sequential art and storytelling isn't nearly as good as the previous 2 issues. Still a fun issue and great ending to this story.

Disintegration Street Volume 1 Brenden Swan You know something is a passion project and a creator really cares when they deliver this awesome hand crafted 165 page book after only raising a couple thousand dollars. Disintegrationstreet is a great crowd funded book and Brenden Swan needs attention. Totally Recommend.

Tales of the Teen Titans #42 Marv Wolfman George Perez The first part of the Judas Contract establishes the lives and relationships of all the Titans while foreshadowing the ultimate betrayal. A great issues with outstanding art by George Perez.
