    Fearless Defenders 1 Fearless_Defenders_Vol_1_1

    by Cullen Bunn, Will Sliney ; Marvel Comics

    Will Morgan — 23-Feb-13

    You’ve got to think Fearless Defenders is doomed to twelve issues and buh-bye. Which would be a pity, as setting aside the oestrogen-rich novelty angle, it’s a decent thriller with a likable protagonist.

    by Susan Brewer ; Remember When

    by Alan Moore, Kevin O'Neill ; Top Shelf Productions, Knockabout Comics

    Tony Keen — 20-Oct-12

    Archie 636 Archie636

    by Tania Del Rio, Gisele Lagace ; Archie Comics

    Will Morgan — 19-Oct-12

    Having attracted much attention and some controversy prior to its release, Archie 636’s “The Big Switcheroo!” turns out to be a gentle screwball comedy reminiscent of Thorne Smith’s whimsical supernatural romances of the 1930s.
