Angel: Revelations #1 preview

May 26th, 2008, 6:47 pm by Shawn Munguia

Marvel Comics is giving a little incite into Warren Worthington with Angel: revelations. The story by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa looks intriguing as does the stylized, and beautiful art by Adam Pollina. The mini-series promises to add detail to the origin story of one of Charles Xavier’s original X-Men.

Ultimate X-Men #94 preview

May 19th, 2008, 7:26 pm by Shawn Munguia

Ultimate X-Men #94 is probably my must read for the week. While Marvel Comics is putting out some solid comics and I’m a huge fan of Hercules, this issue has some truly jaw-dropping moments. Among the “What the hell?” moments is the unveiling of Ultimate Alpha Flight. But take a look at the roster and you’ll have a nice little gasp in there as well.

‘Cable’ coolness

March 3rd, 2008, 6:59 pm by Shawn Munguia

‘Cable’ is a thick slice of cool, but what do you expect when you team a crime writer like Duane Swierczynski with a fantastic penciller like Ariel Olivetti.

Cable No. 1 cover courtesy of Marvel Comics.Spoilers beyond this point, turn back if you don’t want to know anything about the story. I’ll try to keep it to a minimum though.

The story starts with the titled hero wandering through future Earth protecting the baby that he picked up at the end of the Messiah CompleX series.

“Cable” No. 1 variant cover courtesy of Marvel ComicsWe see that this takes place after he’s been on the run for about six months (his time) and we get to see him take on a small group of baddies. The big thrill comes at the end when we see who the antagonist is going to be for the first arch of the series and it’s none other than __________.

I’m not about to spoil that for you. Check it out as the series looks like it’ll be a great ride.

Wolvie series preview

March 3rd, 2008, 6:53 pm by Shawn Munguia

Logan, from Marvel Comics, looks like it’ll be a fun ride despite the fact that not a lot happens in this issue. But it definitely lets you know that it’s going somewhere thrilling.

Brian K. Vaughan and Eduardo Risso are credited as storytellers, a term I tend to dig a lot due to my heavy use of it. But it’s also nice to see scribe and scribbler listed side by side.

The story ends with a pretty thrilling little cliffhanger for those that know your history. If you have no grasp of what’s come before it may lose some of the gasp factor it had for me.

The comic is also available in a black and white variant.

Check out this preview of the color comic, then grab the comic Wednesday.
