140 Character Reviews 2/5/2014: Seahawks Win the Super Bowl Week

Comics Fans who are mostly not Seahawks fans
February 6, 2014
140 Character Reviews, Reviews

We'll get to the comics in a moment, but Comics Bulletin Publisher Jason Sacks lives in Seattle and is euphoric about his beloved Hawks winning the Super Bowl. So forgive him this indulgence…

Seahawks win the Super Bowl

Now on to this week’s new comics!

Adventure Time The Flip Side #2 (BOOM! Studios)

Adventure Time The Flip Side issue 2 seems to just be an Adventure Time story. Nothing special, but that's not a bad thing!

— New Mike Lepine.Then (@lepineisme) February 5, 2014

All-New Invaders #2 (Marvel Comics)

Im really enjoying Invaders so far. Lots of good action. pic.twitter.com/oldP0a2yfG

Batwing #28 (DC Comics)

For anyone that cares Batwing issue 28 was not a Gothtopia tie in and it was not good.

Detective Comics #28 (DC Comics)

Detective Comics issue 28 continued to let me know picking up Gothtopia was a good idea. The Constantine ad towards the end hurt my eyes.

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

Lazarus #6 (Image Comics)

LAZARUS #6: Full of subtle, rich, and powerful world-building, this gets my vote for #BookOfTheWeek @ruckawriter @MichaelLark66

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

Another great issue of Lazarus. The world is so complex and the story so compelling. pic.twitter.com/oddNWSQKBs

Michael Avon Oeming’s The Victories #9 (Dark Horse Comics)

The Victories #9: "Jackal was right." @Oeming pic.twitter.com/Xk8v4sc9qW

— Kirk (@kirkvanlund) February 6, 2014

Minimum Wage #2 (Dark Horse Comics)

MINIMUM WAGE #2: Fingerman is a master w/ realistic dialogue, but the story feels inconsequential, very light plot intrinsically.

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

Ms. Marvel #1 (Marvel Comics)

MS. MARVEL #1: Some of the cultural bits feel a little contrived or shoehorned in, but it was otherwise fun & beautiful, magical feel to it.

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

I liked that Ms. Marvel comic book. More Adrian Alphona art and G. Willow Wilson stories are always a good thing.

— DAGGERS FOREVER (@gwarrenl) February 5, 2014

Oh yes, Ms Marvel #1 = Nailed It pic.twitter.com/3C9VqBINGe

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 5, 2014

— New Mike Lepine.Then (@lepineisme) February 5, 2014

Well @nathanedmondson @MitchGerads nailed it with Punisher #1. Fantastic first issue! pic.twitter.com/TRV69tEGl5

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

The Punisher issue 1 was really good. I Will be back for more of this!

— New Mike Lepine.Then (@lepineisme) February 5, 2014

Rover Red Charlie #3 (Avatar Press)

I wish I could stop reading Red Rover Charlie. ITs good but its going to get really hard to read I think pic.twitter.com/Z5dWnXomgH

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 5, 2014

Secret #5 (Image Comics)

The art in Secret is so great. The release schedule is hard but this book is a treat every time it comes out. pic.twitter.com/9yq276wAIu

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

SECRET #5: Pristine visuals by Bodenheim & Garland, I enjoy the singles, but can never remember what happened before. #ReadsBetterCollected

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

Superior Carnage Annual #1 (Marvel Comics)

Wow Superior Carnage Annual #1 was brutal and pretty great. Nice work @cullenbunn pic.twitter.com/YdLzzxcG3k

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

The Star Wars #5 (Dark Horse Comics)

These The Star Wars issues are so bizarre. Fun, but bizarre. pic.twitter.com/MyWVzlnGY2

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

@AaronMeyers I just can't grok those, man. #ReadsLikeFanFic

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 6, 2014

@ThirteenMinutes yeah for sure. but its a fascinating disaster.

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

The Star Wars issue 5 kind of felt like it was dragging it's feet. Still pretty to look at.

— New Mike Lepine.Then (@lepineisme) February 5, 2014

Superior Foes Of Spider-Man #8 (Marvel Comics)

Superior Foes was fantastic as always. pic.twitter.com/xPYMOEkKKG

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 6, 2014

Superior Foes of Spider-Man #8 is just a perfect comic. Thank you @nickspencer and @steve_lieber! pic.twitter.com/jG54N6l40M

— Kirk (@kirkvanlund) February 6, 2014

Trillium #6 (DC Comics)

TRILLIUM #6: I'm still imagining a Darren Aronofsky adaptation of this, also still wondering how it'll be collected. #TiredOfFlipping

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

Man, Trillium is just so so good. pic.twitter.com/BsJon7xVw8

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 5, 2014

Turok Dinosaur Hunter #1 (Dynamite Comics)

TUROK: DINOSAUR HUNTER #1: Scripting feels fairly rote from Greg Pak, but the Mirko Colak art is gorgeous, right in his wheelhouse.

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

@ThirteenMinutes yeah that art was really solid

— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) February 5, 2014

@AaronMeyers He did a few Conan issues that were also top notch.

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

TUROK: DINOSAUR HUNTER #1: I guess Dynamite will follow the Valiant formula w/ Gold Key characters, intro solo, then invariably crossover.

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

TUROK: DINOSAUR HUNTER #1: Did we really need 36 variant covers?

— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) February 5, 2014

X-Men #10.NOW (Marvel Comics)

Oh yes, Xmen [Women] is a lot of fun. yes indeed. pic.twitter.com/yrRv4hGm6c
