Ghost-Spider #7

Ghost-Spider #7 comic reviewGhost Spider takes a break from both the Miles Warren storyline and Gwen’s sabbatical in the regular Marvel Universe to offer a look at familiar characters whose lives are quite different in Spider-Gwen’s dimension. In Gwen’s world, Johnny Storm and Sue Storm were social media celebrities rather than fantastical heroes. They disappeared four years ago only to show up suddenly when no memories of where they’ve been all this time.

Like her father, and the world, Gwen has questions about what happened to the pair and if their return is also related to some kind of Human Torch who has suddenly appeared in New York.

Follow that?

Hawkman #21 features appearances by Hawkwoman, the Atom, and Adam Strange working on the problem of how to bring their version of Hawkman back to reality. However, most of the comic just deals with a deranged version of Hawkman fighting a giant version of Hawkman.

Batman & the Outsiders #10

Batman & the Outsiders #10 comic reviewWith Bruce Wayne reaching out to resources in attempts to discover what Ra’s al Ghul‘s endgame might be, and how it is related to both Kaliber and a Markovian scientist, the team he put together is in shambles. Black Lightning is now working with Lady Shiva who believes she can trade on this relationship and get closer to her daughter by helping the grieving hero in his search for revenge.

Ten issues in, Batman & the Outsiders continues to play the long game and tease the reader with breadcrumbs. Issue #10 does nothing to buck that trend as Bryan Edward Hill is taking the idea of “slow-play” to the limit.
