Wonder Woman #28

Wonder Woman #28 comic review“Heart of the Amazon” continues with David Messina taking over the artistic duties for Mirka Andolfo. There’s a noticeable change in style between the pair, and I can’t help but feel a bit letdown by the change.

Marvel's Defenders - The H Word 1 television review

Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) is slowly drinking herself to death and refusing to take any case until threatened to stay away from the search for a missing architect piques her interest. And Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox), long since putting his horned-mask and billy-club aside, continues to struggle against leaving that part of his life behind.
