Welcome to Last Month’s Comics, in which I discuss, uh, last month’s comics. I get my comics in bi-monthly shipments from Discount Comic Book Service, and as such, I can be a little behind.

Welcome to Last Month’s Comics, in which I will discuss, uh, last month’s comics. The past couple episodes, we’ve pimped Direct Comic Book Service, which I’ve recently started using as a way to return to regular comics reading. The only downside is that I only get bi-weekly shipments (the weekly option is there, it’s just more [...]
‘Moon Girl’ #1 & 2 Review: By the Light of the Moon

Moon Girl was an EC Comics character from the late 40′s who lasted about nine issues, and over those nine issues, the series’ title changed several times: Moon Girl and the Prince, Moon Girl, Moon Girl Fights Crime!, and my personal favorite, A Moon, a Girl…Romance. The last three issues under that final title didn’t even include Moon [...]

Venom #1 Written by Rick Remender Art by Tony Moore Cover by Joe Quesada Published by Marvel Entertainment One of the characters I care the least for from the last decade or two of comics would have to be Venom. An interesting idea spun out of Secret Wars and brought into the mainstream Spider-Man [...]
Review: Xombi #1

Xombi #1 Written by John Rozum Art by Frazier Irving Letters by Dave Sharpe Published by DC Entertainment For one reason or another I never got onboard with the Milestone line of comics that debuted in the nineties. Not really sure why, but perhaps I was just too focused on the more mainstream Marvel [...]

Writer: Patton Oswalt Penciler: Patric Reynolds It’s been two years since the last Serenity comic, the Firefly-era Better Days, and five years since Serenity itself. And yet the fanbase just seems to keep growing, the love for these characters and their world deepening with each passing year. So, I mean, Dark Horse could put out a comic that consists [...]

Originally published on May 6, 2010 Writer: Brad Meltzer Penciler: Georges Jeanty Buffy the Vampire Slayer #35 makes me glad that we don’t use ratings here on the Gobbledygeek website. Everywhere else I’ve written reviews, I’ve used a ratings system, be it the four-star, the five-star, or my current favorite, the trusty old letter grades. [...]
