X-Men fans could be forgiven for feeling nervous when "Head of X" Jonathan Hickman made his unexpected exit after 2021's Inferno. Fortunately, this year has proven the franchise is still in very capable hands. In particular, Kieron Gillen's Immortal X-Men is the best X-book to come along since House of X and Powers of X so dramatically overturned t...
The Superman comic book line has rarely been as good as it was in 2022, and that's thanks in no small part to Phillip Kennedy Johnson's Action Comics run. Even as Clark Kent's son Jon has taken up the mantle of Superman on Earth, Johnson has pushed the original Man of Steel way out of his comfort zone in the "Warworld Saga." This story casts Superm...
While the main Walking Dead comic book reached its unexpected conclusion in 2019, the franchise has continued on in other forms. And boy are we glad it did. Tillie Walden's Clementine: Book One is the first in a new trilogy of graphic novels centered around the fan-favorite protagonist of Telltale's Walking Dead games. Set after the games, this gra...
You may well recognize cartoonist Kate Beaton from her long-running, highly acclaimed webcomic Hark! A Vagrant, which puts an absurdist spin on various historical figures. Beaton tackles a very different and more personal subject in Ducks, an autobiographical graphic novel that also happens to be her first long-form comics work. Ducks chronicles a ...
The first original graphic novel to arise out of Marvel and Abrams Books' new partnership is one that pays loving homage to the classic Stan Lee/Jack Kirby era of Fantastic Four. It's also the first graphic novel to be both written and illustrated by Alex Ross. Ross takes the opportunity to push his iconic style in bold new directions. Far from the...
DC hasn't necessarily been kind to Wally West in recent years. Between being wiped out of existence during the New 52 and becoming a murderer in the controversial Heroes in Crisis, Wally has been in sore need of redemption. Fortunately, that's exactly what writer Jeremy Adams has been doing in the pages of The Flash. The series has been completely ...
Twelve friends gather for a relaxing weekend at a beautiful, remote lake house, only for things to go horribly wrong. That may sound like a recipe for a fairly generic murder mystery or slasher horror story, but The Nice House on the Lake is anything but predictable. The first issue makes that abundantly clear. This series once again establishes wr...
Marjorie Liu and Sana Takeda's Monstress has been an awards darling for several years running, and for good reason. So it should come as no surprise that their next collaboration is an instant hit. The Night Eaters: She Eats the Night isthe first in a trilogy of graphic novels centered around Chinese American twins Milly and Billy and their overbea...
Chip Zdarsky remained one of the most superhumanly prolific creators in the industry this year, including managing the rare feat of writing both Daredevil and Batman at the same time. But somehow, Zdarsky has also found time to both write and draw this engrossing creator-owned series. Public Domain is very much a comic about the comics industry its...
We always look forward to Rick Remender's new projects with great interest, but we didn't expect A Righteous Thirst for Vengenace to hit as hard as it does. This crime series follows a seemingly ordinary man who happens across the twisted world of contract killings on the dark web and makes the fateful choice to stop a murder in the act. A strong p...
- Watchmen (1986-1987) Created by Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons & John Higgins (DC Comics) Perhaps Moore's most iconic work in comics came in his Watchmen series.
- Batman: The Dark Knight Returns (1986) Created by Frank Miller, Klaus Janson & Lynn Varley (DC Comics) Arguably the most popular Elseworlds Batman story is Miller's The Dark Knight Returns.
- The Sandman (1989-1996) Created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Keith, Dave McKean, Mike Dringenberg (Vertigo) The most iconic Vertigo series that DC published was its flagship The Sandman, written by the great Neil Gaiman and illustrated by numerous artists.
- Batman: Year One (1987) Created by Frank Miller & David Mazzucchelli (DC Comics) Origin stories can occasionally feel like a dime a dozen and have understandably worn out fans' patience over the years.

- Watchmen (1986) In all honesty, how could it have been anything else? There are countless blogs devoted to how overrated the comics are, and they’re all wrong.
- Daredevil (2001) Serialized comic books, particularly those at DC and Marvel, have a reputation for lacking stakes. Characters don’t stay dead, relationships that are broken up are often reset.
- Dark Knight Returns (1986) If Morrison faced the unenviable task of writing a “last Superman story”, Miller’s task of crafting a “final” Batman story (ignore that there’s a pair of pretty terrible sequels) feels nearly impossible.
- Blacksad (2000) Blacksad is rarely overly complex, either in goals or plots, but what it does is consistently tell some of the best detective noir stories in any medium since the movie Chinatown.
