The Terminator Metal series goes inside the minds, or CPUs, of Terminators in an anthology book that provides insight into how they process situations and survive. The first two issues were set in the future during the human resistance, while issue three takes readers back to 1889 in Blue Mountains, Oregon.
Decades ago, Paul Barry’s deep sea exploration crew was lost under inexplicable circumstances, and he’s spent the intervening years plagued by guilt and not knowing what happened. Now not only has their vessel been found, the crew is alive and they appear not to have aged a day in the interim. It’s a massive mystery, one that unfolds beautifully in the hands of writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, artist Tony Aikins, and colorist Paul Mounts.
Postal is set in the town of Eden, Wyoming, an off the map place where people are private and live simple lives. They are also entirely made of criminals who have problems with authority and impulse control, so Eden is less like a sanctuary than a carefully controlled zoo filled with predators.
It’s the holiday season, and the teens of Riverdale have been invited to a dance at the North Pole with Noelle, Sugarplum, and Jingles. But the festive soirée turns sour when Archie becomes the object of too much affection.
In the second issue, the Doctor and his new cohorts – a Tentaculon named Methelough, an Adipose called Annie, the cyborg warrior H-8, and the Slitheen pirate Felik – make their way through the cell blocks on a mission to find the Warden’s office. Meanwhile, the unhinged Warden is forcing Belinda to regale him with stories about Earth.
Dynamite’s first Maleficent series was a standout title among their Disney villain books. That continues in this second volume written by Paulina Ganucheau and drawn by Theo Stultz. Her greed for power and position have driven Maleficent from the safety of her kingdom into a strange, otherworldly setting. And yet, she has no fear.
This installment of Josie and the Pussycats is equal parts music, misunderstandings, and mishaps. The band keeps finding hurdles in their attempts to rock out and perform for an audience, which makes for a quartet of amusing stories. Despite the challenges they face, the band sticks together to make their music and perform for the fans.
Corto Maltese: Under the Sign of Capricorn, the initial offering of the imprint, was the first of 12 volumes which collected writer-artist Hugo Pratt’s seminal work. The first book collects Pratt’s first six interconnected short stories: “The Secret of Tristan Bantam,” “Rendez-vous in Bahia,” “Sureshot Samba,” “The Brazilian Eagle,” “So Much for Gentlemen of Fortune,” and “The Seagull’s Fault.”
The last issue in The Invisible Man series delivers a tense, suspenseful conclusion to a really good series. James Tynion IV’s take on the Invisible Man captures the tone and themes of the Universal monster movie and the original source material, H.G. Wells’ book of the same name. Griffin is arrogant and narcissistic, wholly focused on achieving his goal with zero concern for others. He is clever and dangerous, making for a very scary villain.
It seemed like Comico was on a roll. They’d scored hits with The Elementals, Grendel, the color version of Fish Police...
Harley Quinn and Elvira have come to an arrangement and now the Mistress of the Dark is temporarily cohabitating with the lovable lunatic. While Elvira gets accustomed to her new surroundings, Harley enlists the help of her Gang of Harleys to make some money so that they can pay their house guest for her appearance at the big party.
It’s very hard to replicate the impact, however, of the 1976 collaboration of DC Comics and Marvel Comics on their first high profile crossover, Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man. In those days, such a thing was just about completely unheard of. It’s impact was bigger than it’s Treasury-size format.
