The Eisner winner for Best Continuing Series is back - that’s right,Chew #22 hits comics shop this week. This is part two of the Major League story arc. If you have not read part one, make sure to check out my review of Chew #21. Ok good, now you know what’s going on in the previous issue, right? Because I don’t want you to tell me I spoiled this book for you. First of all, when you’re talking about Chew, you have to give it up to Rob Guillory: that man is amazing. Sure, I know John Layman is the mastermind...

If you’re new to the world of comics, you may know the name Robert Kirkman from the AMC’s hit TV show “Walking Dead.” But did you know he has an amazing ongoing book over at Image? Well if you did, good for you; if not, welcome to a review of Invincible #85. Would #85 make you a fan of Invincible after you’re done reading it? Find out in this Advanced Review! First off, let me just say WOW and great job to everyone who works on Invincible to hit such a BIG number as 85. That is very impressive...

Vampires exist in the DC Universe. Andrew Bennett is a vampire who believes they can co-exist with humanity, mainly by staying under the radar. His ex-lover, Mary, Queen of Blood, believes vampires should not try to co-exist with the human… livestock; vampires should rule them. Needless to say, this puts these two lovers at odds with one another. We catch up with them as Mary is making her declaration of war and Andrew is trying to get her to reconsider. Andrew doesn’t doubt his convictions about vampire-human...

I love a good political drama, such as the new film The Debt, but I am not here to give you a review of that film. I am here to talk to you about the new book from Image comics called Pigs, by Nate Cosby and Ben McCool and the amazing artist Breno Temura. No, it is not the story of the three little pigs. It is the a story of a second-generation KGB Cuban sleeper cell who is here to overthrow the U.S. government. I know some people may look at this book as anti-American propaganda. But it is not - it is a very important part of...

As almost everyone reading this knows, Saturday, May 7, is Free Comic Book Day at participating shops across North America. With over 35 free titles vying for the attention of avid comic fans, I’d like to make a special note of the exemplary offering from publisher Archaia — Mouse Guard, The Dark Crystal, and Season of the Dapper Men, plus a sneak peek at the highly anticipated graphic novel A Tale of Sand all under the cover of one flip book. I was lucky enough to receive an advance copy of this release and my already...

It is not often that we here at Comic Impact get advanced copies of comics but Daniel Freedman and Tom Coker have been nice enough to supply us with an advanced copy of their new Image comic Undying Love which comes out this week!  The book itself looks to grow the vampire mythos into a bold new direction. I am sure you are saying to yourself, “Self, why do I want to read another book about sparkly vampires who are mopey?” Read on to find out why this book is none of those things and find out why this could be your...

When I heard Zenescope was putting a Charmed comic out I was wondering how it would work. I was always a big fan of the show and I was afraid it would be hard to pick up the essence of the show so long after it had been on the air.  After reading the first issue I have hope for the series. I really like the cover by David Seidman.  I think the pose was very true to the tv series and the muted colors gave it that magical feel. It also has aspects from the book with the vines and chalkboard. Plus you get the familiar “Charmed”...

For sometime now, we have been hearing  about this all new X-Men comic, that is going to have vampires in the first story arc. I personally think it is a bit silly. Well, guess what I read last night? That’s right, the new X-men number 1 from Victor Gischler (’The Death of Dracula’) and artwork by Paco Medina (‘Deadpool’). How was it? How did I get a copy, and does it spoil ‘Second Coming’? Read on to find out. First off this issue does not spoil ‘Second Coming‘. Thank God,...

Here at ComicImpact, we were lucky enough to get a sneak peak look at a hot new graphic novel that is set to be released next week on the 13th of Janurary through Oni Press publishings. I’m Rob, and I’m going to run you through what I thought of this brand spanking new book, and tell you why this is something to check out when new releases hit the stores next week. ‘Lola: A Ghost Story’ is a chunky 112 page, hardcover graphic novel, written by J. Torres, and with artwork given to us by Elbert Or....

It’s really hard for me to write about things I like. I feel like it’s easier to talk about things that are wrong with a book.  My first start of this review read “this book is neat, i really think you should read it.”  In truth, that’s gonna be the heart of this review but I’m going to try to elaborate just a bit more. For those of you not in the know, Soulfire is a comic about the resurgence of magic in the year 2211. It’s one of Michael Turner’s great contributions to the world...
