MASO #1 Comics Review
Dec 30
Maso is definitely one unhappy buddy. On the first page, we see him lamenting over losing a loved one while being tormented about the tragic thought of having a tarnished public image – poor guy! Just two pages shortly thereafter, we see him beating the crap out of Kid Lightning and Lolo Thunder – even poorer guys! Maso #1 follows the adventures of the title character after his...
Superman #706 Comics Review
Dec 29
Although I really am not a fan of the “Grounded” story arc, I must admit I enjoyed reading Superman #706 (which is a Grounded interlude) This issue focuses less on the Man of Steel and more on seasoned “Editorator” Perry White who’s having some trouble trying to keep Daily Planet in regular circulation. On top of lower readership, Perry also has to deal with accusations from local...

Bien Del Rosario rocks us once again with the release of Adoboverse Komiks #2! As with the previous issue, he introduces us to more of his colorful and cleverly-named characters.

Besides, I realized, this one only has a few pages so why spoil the fun? So when I took the bus on my way home from the Metro Comic Con, Lipad became my instant pick and was my first read among...

For anyone wanting to take a break from all the gloom and doom that seems to be too prevalent in most comics these days, Rocket and Bounce can surely be a treat! Rocket is a flying boy wearing what looks to be like an Ultraman helmet while Bounce is a girl who, uhm, bounces and has some sort of a Speedball effect going on. The webcomic follows the adventure of these sensational super siblings who...
The Flash #1 Comics Review
Jun 02
Meet Flash. A superhero frequently referred to as “the fastest man alive.” Meet Barry Allen. Flash’ alter-ego and a police forensic officer who is, quite ironically, considered as the slowest in their department. Now meet me – not much of a Flash fan but quickly changed my tunes after reading Flash #1 by writer Geoff Johns and artist Francis Manapul. Story-wise, I’m...
