After going through the Spider-Verse I found my least favorite Spider-Man costume. I'll explain why it's bad and offer alternative designs for it.

It can be argued that no story NEEDS to exist, but this felt like an especially needless use of a miniseries. My favorite part was when it ended.

In The Rise of Ultraman #4 Shin learns the USP secret that could lead to Kiki's death and trigger the Kaiju Crisis. What can Ultraman do to stop it?

Spider-Gwen is weird to me. The movie version is good. The Comic version feels redundant and like she can't quite stand on her own. Her 2015 mini-series showed that to me.

My kid got me to read her Spider-Gwen and it piqued my interest in the Spider-Verse. It was a let down. Find out why.

The Rise of Ultraman #3 from Marvel Comics has fun action, escalating stakes, and healthy skepticism of authority figures. It's a great comic and this series is strong. I have a lot to say about it, so check out my full analysis!

This post-Pearl Harbor issue of Captain America Comics deals with the new Japanese threat in an interesting way. The Japanese characters are drawn with exaggerated features to help dehumanize them and make them easier to hate. It's good for propaganda, but bad for the soul!

The inside cover to this book boasts that it is NEW! DIFFERENT! EXCITING! I have to say it does deliver.

This issue feels like Avison and Shores pulling out all the stops to make the absence of Kirby and Simons less noticeable. They hit a lot of the same highlights and do a lot of the most Cap and Bucky things they can in how the visuals are presented.

Shin Hayata faces almost certain death. He can live and seize his own destiny if he can face his own darkness and rise above it.
