Posted on November 11, 2009 by pozzyfreak

By Craig Kyle & Chris Yost (Writers) and Clayton Crain (Artist) Some Thoughts Before The Review: Thanks to the Necrosha one-shot and a compelling New Mutants chapter, the latest “X” crossover has gotten off to a solid start.

Posted on August 12, 2009 by pozzyfreak

By Matt Fraction (Writer), Terry Dodson (Pencils), Rachel Dodson (Inks), and Justin Ponsor (Colors) Some Thoughts Before The Review: Utopia has been pretty weak so far. While it hasn’t been awful, it certainly feels like it’s getting in the way of better things. Dark Avengers was on a roll prior to Utopia, and Uncanny X-Men [...]

By Matt Fraction (Writer), Terry Dodson (Pencils), Rachel Dodson (Inks), and Justin Ponsor (Colors) Some Thoughts Before The Review: The Uncanny X-Men and Dark Avengers crossover, Utopia, got off to an unremarkable start.

Fusion #2 – Review

Posted on June 28, 2009 by pozzyfreak

By Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning (Writers), Tyler Kirkham (Pencils), and Sal Regla (Inks) Some Thoughts Before The Review: Fusion #1 was a fun ’90s throwback comic. It was dated as hell, but if you just went with the crazy stuff going on, there was far more to like than hate. Plus, you really can’t [...]

Cable #14 (Messiah War Chapter 4) – Review

Posted on May 6, 2009 by pozzyfreak

By Duane Swierczynski (Writer) and Ariel Olivetti (Artist) Some Thoughts Before The Review: I’ve pretty much given up on any hope that Messiah War is going to end up being a truly worthy follow-up to the fantastic Messiah Complex event. While the crossover has been entertaining enough, it lacks the sense of urgency and intensity [...]

Posted on March 26, 2009 by pozzyfreak

By Craig Kyle & Christopher Yost (Writers) and Mike Choi & Sonia Oback (Art) Some Thoughts Before The Review: The X-event The Messiah Complex was one of the reasons I got back into reading comics.

Posted on December 2, 2008 by pozzyfreak

By Barry Keating (Story), Tim Seeley (Story & Script), Emily Stone (Art), and Mark Englert (Colors) Some Thoughts Before The Review: While I have enjoyed the Hack/Slash crossover with the Re-Animator for the most part, I can’t help but be slightly disappointed by how Herbert West continues to feel like more of a plot device [...]

Posted on November 18, 2008 by pozzyfreak

By Ron Marz (Writer), Stjepan Sejic (Art), and Phil Hester (Art) Some Thoughts Before The Review: In a market crowded by event books, I have found myself pleasantly surprised by Top Cow’s Broken Trinity crossover.

Broken Trinity #2 – Review

Posted on September 22, 2008 by pozzyfreak

By Ron Marz (Writer), Stjepan Sejic (Art), and Phil Hester (Art) First, a quick note. Now that I’ve read the first two chapters of Top Cow’s Broken Trinity crossover, I find myself absolutely baffled as to why the story is being limited to three main books and two tie-ins (one of which is a prequel [...]
