The Prisoner has become just such a cult hit, its fans every bit as passionate as those of Star Trek or Star Wars for example. […]
Written by Anthony Del Col | Art by PJ Kaiowa | Published by Titan Comics The historical angle has always been what has given Assassin’s Creed its unique ‘thing’, the clever weaving of historical fact with Assassin’s Creed fiction. Real people interacting with Creed created characters. Previous games in the relatively recent past have been […]
Written by Chris King | Art by Jesus Hervas | Published by Titan Comics Well this has been a while coming. I reviewed issue 8 back in early January, so clearly the use of sadism isn’t just restricted to certain characters within the story. Chris King and Jesus Hervas, although clearly doing an absolutely brilliant […]
Written by Cynthia Von Buhler | Art by Cynthia Von Buhler | Published by Titan Comics I’m still trying to work out where I stand on this series. I better hurry up I guess as this is the final issue. In general the story and art have been pretty good, with a skillful weaving of […]
Written by Alex Paknadel, Dan Watters | Art by Jose Holder | Published by Titan Comics Seems like an age since the last time I reviewed this book, which is probably a good thing as it allows a reviewer to regain a little perspective. Although the book as a whole I like, I was getting […]
Written by Gordon Rennie | Art by Andie Tong | Published by Titan Comics Last issue’s first issue of the book’s second arc was every bit as good as every issue of the first arc, and that’s saying something. The second album is always the most difficult, but Gordon Rennie just kept on doing what […]
Weapon X #15 Writers: Greg Pak & Fred Van Lente | Artist: Roland Boschi | Colours: Frank D’Armata | Letters: Joe Caramagna As someone who owns and has read every issue of Wolverine I have a huge amount of respect for a writer who takes something from the past and uses it. The set up […]
Welcome back to another installment of Panel Discussion – this time featuring a rundown of my picks of the Top 30 comics released in March 2018. This is part one, a countdown of books 30-16… But first the caveats: First and foremost this is simply my list and with that comes a great deal of […]
Written by Mark Millar | Art by John Romita Jr. | Published by Image Comics Mark Millar and John Romita Jr. bring us Kick-Ass #2 and my god, comparted to the first issue, this is like night and day… If you read my review for issue one you will know that I wasn’t exactly smitten […]

Armed to the hilt, she kidnaps the country’s most notorious killer-for-hire and sets out to slaughter every gang member and criminal lowlife in Palmira.

Written by Dan Abnett | Art by Tom Mandrake | Published by Titan Comics I managed to miss this when it first came out, in individual issues, so am pleased to see the collection arrive so I can finally give it a read. I’m probably an easy sell, as I’m a fan of both writer […]
Welcome to another edition of Catching Up with the Classics where I talk about a comic book series or story that I have failed to read up to this point. This time I am taking at Walt Simonson’s run on Thor, specifically The Mighty Thor #337 – #355 My Background: In this section, I review […]
Written by Simon Furman | Art by Marco Turini | Published by Titan Comics Although Brian Wood and Simon Furman are still listed as co-plotters, each issue that comes seems to have Furman’s fingerprints on it more and more. For me, Brian Wood writes a purer story, focusing on the bigger picture, whereas Simon Furman […]
Written by Richard Dinnick | Art by Pasquale Qualano | Published by Titan Comics Will he be returning? Still not sure if there will be a Season Four of the comic book adventures of The Twelfth Doctor, so this issue may well be it for the foreseeable future. Peter Capaldi’s Doctor was loved by the […]
Written by Anthony Del Col | Art by PJ Kaiowa | Published by Titan Comics Seems an age since I reviewed an Assassin’s Creed title, which is a shame as I really enjoy the Assassins Creed universe. Love the games, the novelisations, most of the comics and didn’t hate the movie, though many seemed too. […]
Written by Gordon Rennie | Art by Andie Tong | Published by Titan Comics The breakout hit of last year is back, still basking in the well deserved adulation of being first a cult hit, and then a bit more of a mainstream success. Gordon Rennie did what almost all other Fighting American writers have been […]

All New Wolverine #30 Writer: Tom Taylor | Artist: Juann Cabal | Colourist: Nolan Woodard | Letters: Cory Petit Firstly I would like to point out I am one issue behind on All New Wolverine. It is because I receive my comics by post and to ensure they are delivered in time to get my […]
Written by Fabien Nury | Art by Thierry Robin | Published by Titan Comics If you have any interest in cinema and, let’s be honest, who doesn’t, then you may have heard of a little film called The Death of Stalin. It’s become quite the cult hit. I’ve not had a chance to check it out […]
