Quick Reviews #17

Time's A Wastin'

This was a long week of intense work. And on my Birthday week and my mom’s. So let’s get goin’.

Dynamite via Pepose

• 

  Space Ghost Vol. 2 #1: Just cuz one story ended, that doesn’t mean you go in blind. Here we’ve got the classic spirit of a superhero in concert with what he means to his wards. As well as an arc opening in conjunction with a growing threat. 9/10

• 

  Captain Planet #3: Now here is where the ball really gets rolling. We’ve got a conflict going in contrast to how it can feel to people just getting their bearings on it. 8.5/10

Mad Cave

• Don’t Forget Your Briefcase #2: An intense, suspenseful, atmosphere permeates throughout the pages. Every nook and cranny feels like it’s what causes a horrible chain reaction. One where you can’t help but guess at what happens next. 9.5/10

• Gatchaman #11: I’m starting to like these one-off adventures more than the main one. Good pace, easy classic characterizations, and a set direction from beginning to end. 9/10

• Dick Tracy #11: An enthralling opening to the biggest character pushing arc yet. War PTSD-like effects, every character at risk, and the full effect of what Dick Tracy means to the cast. 9.5/10

• Whatever Happened To Crimson Justice #3: A nice parallel arc where the momentum never stops. Just keeps going with every little piece until one big moment with more on the way. 9/10

• Infinit-T Force Vol. 3: Good moments with quirky characters, but the pacing and character dynamics get spotty. 7.5/10
