Well, it looks like Fabian Cortez is back to one, eh? X-villainy’s best obsequious twit is back and doing his fawning lackey who will betray you at the first opportunity schtick, using his ability to boost others’ mutant power to cozy up to yet another big bad. So much for the come-to-Jesus moment he seemed…
As Doctor Doom prepares a fatal strike against those who stand against him, a sudden betrayal has Cap on the ropes and questioning everything he thought he knew. Captain America #4 is written by Chip Zdarsky, drawn by Valerio Schiti, colored by Frank Martin and lettered by Joe Caramagna. Part of me – part of…
Remember when Gwenpool retconned herself into being a mutant so she could live on Krakoa and not disappear from Marvel’s publishing line? And then she showed up in the big battle scene at the end of “X of Swords” and at the Hellfire Gala and in a Marvel x Fortnite promo comic and she argued…
X years later, with Earth’s gods gone, only Ororo Munroe, the mutant god of storms, remains. She is a goddess driven mad by dark magic and grief.

ComicsXF’s Adam Reck and Dan Grote were only at this year’s New York Comic Con for a brief window of Thursday into Friday, but we tried to see as much as we could in two days and bring you our hot takes on what was trending, what was working really well and maybe a few…
Look, I don’t care that we don’t have a release date or teaser art to show. Can we just talk about the fact that Swamp Thing Is Killing the Children, the DC-BOOM Studios crossover one-shot announced Saturday at New York Comic Con featuring the former’s muck monster and the latter’s bandana-wearing monster hunter, is the…
The Heart of Apokolips has transformed Earth into a hellscape in preparation for the return of Darkseid, and the Justice League’s only chance to defeat him is to enter a deadly tournament. The world’s greatest heroes fight to become the champion to enter the ring against Darkseid, but there’s a catch: The closer you get…
So, funny story. We were at New York Comic Con on Friday with the intention of attending the X-Men panel, but the line to get in was so long that we were boxed out. Y’all hungry for that X-Men tea, apparently. But enough bitterness. After taking a look at Marvel’s “Shadows of Tomorrow” announcements, here…
I remember being in the room for a panel about the return of Vertigo at the 2018 New York Comic Con. Then DC editor Mark Doyle wore his finest Canadian tuxedo. Dan Watters talked about Lucifer. One of the Thrilling Adventure Hour guys had a book out. Tina Horn made dirty jokes about her sex…
How do you think Thor died? Can Doug’s voice make gods do his bidding? Or does Murewa Ayodele’s Akogun-but-with-Marvel characters thing just keep going regardless of what’s going on on the ground? If Storm’s still a god-level character, couldn’t she kill Doug? Come to think of it, if Carol Danvers has the Phoenix Force, why…

Binary #1 is written by Stephanie Phillips, drawn by Giada Belviso, colored by Rachelle Rosenberg and lettered by…

CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER! This week, DC Comics launches DC K.O., a linewide event book by Scott Snyder and Javier Fernandez in which, in order to stop Darkseid’s latest plot to destroy the Earth, 32 of DC’s heroes and villains must beat each other up. How does a fight tournament stop a powerful cosmic tyrant like…
Now, more than ever, we are all the Toxic Avenger. A bunch of weirdos, hideously deformed by a cruel, uncaring system, who have chosen to strap on our tutu, pick up our mop and seek justice through unhinged vigilantism. In an age where nearly every 30-50-year-old property has been licensed into a comic (Wild West…
