Doc’s Reviews For The Week Of July 7th, 2021
SENSATIONAL WONDER WOMAN #5 DC COMICS Amy Chu’s story hits a home run in all the catagories that matter. And that ending is down right uplifting. I do love a good tale that ends with the mean old villian getting their comeuppance! And with Maria Laura Sanapo’s art and Wendy Broome’s colors, this one … Read more WHEN MIKE CAN’T THINK OF ANYTHING, THANK JAKE!
It has been crazy for me the past couple of weeks so I could not think of what I wanted to write. I put it out to the other managers and employees that see our Slack channel. Of course Robinson came up with 6 ideas in less than 5 minutes (he’s good like that). Yet … Read more My First Comics by Sean ConnerMy First Comic Book by Sean Connor Hey, Sean here! I’ve loved comics ever since I was a kid. They’ve always captured my imagination, and no wonder! Who doesn’t love a good hero story; I certainly do. But how did I get into comics? If you couldn’t tell by the image above, the first comic … Read more Doc’s Reviews For the Week of June 30, 2021
THE SHIELD #1 ARCHIE COMICS Well, we seem to be starting off on the right foot with a new Mighty Crusaders title. And while I could do without so many 1 page pin up art pages (signed amazingly enough by Liefeld (Really Rob, in the center of the page?!) David Gallaher’s story keeps the … Read more How Important is Condition? by DevinI am sure many of us Graham Cracker employees have gotten a call in of someone inquiring about a certain book, and if the answer is “Yeah I got a one in stock”, the next question is usually “What’s the grade?”. There are quite a few reasons on why people look to see what a … Read more Doc’s Reviews For The Week Of 06/22/2021
INFINITE FRONTIER #1 DC COMICS While a quick mini-series to introduce some new upcoming concepts can be forgiven sometime, this is not one of those times. A confusing hodge-podge of stories trying to interconnect themselves misses the mark completely. And it doesn’t help that in the House of Heroes, we come literally face to … Read more Madmania by Luke S.
It was the summer of 2017, and I had just gotten back into comics thanks to Gerard Way’s fantastic DC’s Young Animals. I had just taken a trip to the Chicago area Graham Crackers, and with a little extra help from my friendly neighborhood Normal store, I was able to catch up on all of … Read more Doc’s Reviews For The Week Of 06/16/2021
FLASH #771 DC COMICS An amazing tale seems to be getting cut short! Starting off strong with a visit to the Legion of Doom complete with Superfriends cartoon art style it was a shame to see 1 page sneak peeks of storylines that will never happen. I would especially liked to have seen both … Read more Doc’s Reviews For The Week Of 6/9/2021
BATMAN SCOOBY-DOO MYSTERIES #3 DC COMICS This a perfect example of a classic all-ages book. Something that is not all that common these days. And while current Batman readers may have an issue with the simplistic take on the Dark Knight and the somewhat “going out on a limb” reasoning behind Two-Face’s masterplan, that’s … Read more Spidey and The Bat by Shawn S.
New Years Eve was not the same, nor was past New Years Day, We all were weird, even air was feared, still life goes on they say. Some comic fans were left adrift, their clubhouse suddenly scary, Silence fell amongst the books, where once the feeling, merry. A straggling few just left in deep despair. … Read more |
