Daredevil is the show that Marvel should have launched its television universe with. Unlike Marvel’s Agents of Shield, which dragged and limped its way through its first season, Daredevil feels like its running on all cylinders from the opening episode. Having watched the first five episodes I’m convinced that the success of this show is built not only on the collective vision of the creative team, exceptional writing and outstanding cast, but also the show identifies the failures of the 2003 Daredevil film and corrects them. The results is a show with characters that are fully realized and a hero that is distinguishable from the others Marvel has presented, but no less worthy.
Daredevil feels like it was built to succeed. The casting feels flawless and parred with writing that allows the cast to turn the show into something exceptional. Charlie Cox seems to have…

THANK YOU EVERYONE for reading my blog. I couldn’t have done this without you!
This comic is based in a dystopian future where everyone is being watched 24/7. This Big Brother theme could be a nod of what’s to come in our (maybe not so distant) future. The watchers are hybrids:
Owls with camera heads.
Creepy right? But very clever. Since there is always the fear or suspicion of birds (especially owls) watching us, that suspicions is now a reality it’s in this comic.
Anyway, when there is oppression, rebellion is never far behind. That is in the form of three rebels (so far). They are fighting against the people who created the hybrids. The thing is: Who are they and are they working for something or someone bigger?
The comic does a good job with the story and the plot. It has enough suspense and mystery that when you see the bad guy, the comic ends, leaving readers with a cliffhanger.

At first glance, STARBURN seems like another attempt of recreating the magic that is Guardians of the Galaxy (look again!) STARBURN take place where apparently Earth is just a tale told through the Bible.
The characters seem original and the dynamic is perfect; the characters are able to interact together. They aren’t dry and already seem to have background stories just waiting to be found.
The writing doesn’t seem forced and comes natural and is laid back; something that’s important for the comic and its characters. The panels flow at a nice pace.
The artwork for this comic great and very creative and will keep readers entertained.
So, if you’re a fan of the Guardians of the Galaxy or if you just want to see how the other half of the smuggling business lives, read the comic!

As a huge fan of James Tynion IV’s previous work, particularly his Batman related work and especially his collaborative efforts with Batman scribe extraordinaire, Scott Snyder, I was quite excited when I learned of the release of his more horror themed series, The Woods. Now here we are four issues into the

This comic has the feeling and sense that people have lost something — civilization and that now they have to go back to basics . People are using the methods that were first end used by the Mayans. This includes the Mayan calendar and their ways as a form of survival while they wait for their last hope.
The comic keeps track of time in terms of the solar time. It serves as countdown showing reader that something big is coming.
The conflict is evident. The two clans occupying the pages are the Sun clan and the Moon clan. Another way of saying light and dark or good versus evil. With good reason too; the Moon clan tends to slaughter innocent people.
This comic leaves the reader entertained and interested. The comic will leave the reader asking questions such as: ‘What will happen when the countdown hits zero?’ Or ‘Exactly what it is that the clans are fighting over?’
if interested click here for more info on the five part comic series.
This comic seems like something from an episode of Law & Order or Dexter. The comic doesn’t hold back on the gore or the language. It’s safe to say that this is for mature readers’ eyes only.
‘Leave on the Light’ uses all of the textbook tactics and techniques to frighten readers; and it does it right!
Basically the comic is about a serial killer that somehow escaped death via the electric chair and the detective that saw him fry. Now that the killer, Kassey is back to old habits, and the detective, Gary Marshall is hell bent on finding Kassey and putting a stop the brutal murders that he leaves in his wake.
After reading this comic, you too will wanting to sleep with the lights on.
If interested in this comic, more information can be found at Second Sight Studios.
Issue #32 picks up where the last one leaves off: the Dark Knight still on the hunt for Robin. Good thing he’s almost at the end of his search.
Batman with the help of Frankenstein (and their Yeti friends) enter to find Ra’s al Ghul expecting them. Al Ghul is hell bent on reuniting the al Ghul legacy (not family because that would imply that he cares beyond himself and his kingdom).
This issue is about the battle between two fathers who are determined to do what’s right for their loved ones. This issue shows that Batman will do whatever it takes to make sure that Damian rests in peace; even kill al Ghul if necessary.
Batman, after using some electro bat-a-rangs, distracts the enemy in order to get Damian’s sarcophagus. Just as he thought that they were home free, al Ghul reaches them. Batman and al Ghul fight and just as Batman is about to deliver a fatal blow, a strange glow comes out of nowhere.
The glow came from a mysterious man by the name of Glorious Godfrey from Apokolips.
This issue leaves us with a cliffhanger as usual. The next issue, Robin Rises: Omega #1 will be in stores July 16.
