Written by Nick Abadzis | Art by Elena Casagrande | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp After quite a slow start, this series is starting to find its feet a little better. At times it has just felt too safe, almost writing by numbers, and it seemed that Nick Abadzis was still looking […]
Written by Mark Landry | Art by Richard Pace | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Bloodthirsty has been a pretty enjoyable read up to now. Nicely plotted storylines, decent character development, a slightly surreal blend of action and horror all topped off with a side helping of social conscience and political comment. […]

Written by Anthony Del Col, Conor McCreery | Art by Neil Edwards | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp So here we are, the final issue of this first Assassin’s Creed arc. Del Col and McCreery have so far delivered a very good addition to the Assassin’s Creed universe in lead character Charlotte […]
Written by Nick Abadzis | Art by Elena Casagrande | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp If I said I have been a little disappointed so far by Nick Abadzis’s run on this book that would probably be a little harsh. It’s not a bad book at all, but for me it has […]
Written by Alex Irvine | Art by John Aggs | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp For those not in the know, Deus Ex is a series of first person computer games dating back to 2000. They all take place in the near future, in a kind of slightly clichéd dystopian cyberpunk society. […]
Here’s your first fully coloured look inside forthcoming Rivers of London: Night Witch #1 written by Ben Aaronovich (Remembrance of the Daleks, Rivers of London novels) and Andrew Cartmel (Written in Dead Wax) with art by Lee Sullivan (Doctor Who, Judge Dredd) and Luis Guerrero (Doctor Who, The Troop). If you haven’t seen the covers, […]
Written by Noel Clarke | Art by Joshua Cassara | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Conflict. If there is one thing a writer must both introduce and maintain to make for good drama, it’s conflict. A lot of other stuff, like character building, romance, action etc are also welcome, but without conflict […]
Written by Garth Ennis | Art by Keith Burns | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Johnny Red has been a lot of things since Issue 1 came out. A loving homage to those old war comics, told with modern eyes, probably the best non-superhero title out there right now, and genuinely surprising […]
Written by George Mann | Art by Emma Vieceli | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp To date I have been very underwhelmed by this series. Part of that may be that my expectations were too high, specifically excitement at a chance to add some genuine depth and character to an incarnation of […]
Written by Mark Landry | Art by Richard Pace | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Four issues in and Bloodthirsty has been a great book so far, mixing up a big mish-mash of action, conspiracy, boo hiss bad guys, morally conflicted good guys, and a backdrop that can be both seedy and […]
Written by Noel Clarke | Art by Joshua Cassara | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp The first issue of The Troop was not only a pleasant surprise, but far exceeded my expectations. Written by a novice ‘celebrity’ writer, Noel Clarke, I expected a middle of the road generic something or other. What […]

Edited by Natalie Clubb | Senior Art Editor Rob Farmer | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 176pp There was a time, pre-Netflix and Amazon Prime, when network TV ruled the airwaves in the U.S, and churned out a steady supply of middle of the road TV shows, firmly aimed at the ‘average viewer’ […]

Written by George Mann | Art by Emma Vieceli | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp I found issue 1 of this series a mixed blessing. Very happy that the Eighth Doctor is getting a bit more ‘screen time’, as he is certainly an incarnation that is ripe for development, most of what […]

Written by Heroes Reborn scriptwriter Joey Falco with art from Roy Allan Martinez (Immortal Iron Fist), issue #2 comes with covers from Allan Martinez and Feliz Ruiz (Halo: Fall of Reach, Wolverine MAX). […]
Written by Anthony Del Col, Conor McCreery | Art by Neil Edwards | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp As tie-ins go, this has been a pretty impressive effort so far by all involved, using the familiarity of the Assassin’s Creed brand and world, but expanding it by introducing new characters and new […]
Written by Seamus Kevin Fahey, Zach Craley | Art by Rubine | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp So far I’ve found Heroes: Vengeance to be decent, without really stretching itself in any way to make it more of an essential read. The idea of the Heroes Reborn minis is a good one, giving […]
Written by Garth Ennis | Art by Keith Burns | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp It is perhaps a measure of the overall quality of the comic book market of the last several years that I keep waiting for this series to disappoint me at some point. Issue 1 was great, but […]
Written by Al Ewing, Rob Williams | Art by Simon Fraser, Boo Cook, Warren Pleece | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Hardback, 136pp As fun as monthly, or episodic, comics are, sometimes to fully appreciate a storyline or stories with a unifying theme you need to be patient and wait for the trade collection. […]
Written by Garth Ennis | Art by Keith Burns | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp I thought the first issue of this series was one of the best issue 1’s of the year in any category, never mind that it was one of the best non-superhero comics in some time. Garth Ennis […]
