Reviews

Doctor Strange: The Oath

By Mike Lukich

This Doctor Strange is Gandalf, Sherlock Holmes, and Indiana Jones all rolled into one cool New York package. [14 March 2007]

The Escapists #1-6

By Greg Oleksiuk

This is a story about the ultimate dream of most comics fans: writing the comic book of their favorite character. [28 February 2007]

Runaways

By Stefan Robak

Vaughan manages to build on his little corner of the Marvel universe, making it a lot fresher than many Marvel books that tend to retread beloved and overly familiar stories. [8 January 2007]

Pride of Baghdad

There is no cheap, theatrical melodrama or long, pseudo-Shakespearian deathbed monologues here, leaving us with no easy comforts and little else but the quick, unforgiving finality. [9 October 2006]
