Review: BLACK: Widows and Orphans #1
BLACK: WIDOWS & ORPHANS No. 1
BLACKMASK STUDIO – @blackmaskstudio @BLACKsuprppowrs
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY/PLOT: Kwanza Osajyefo and Tim Smith 3 – @kwanzer
SCRIPT/DIALOGUE: Kwanza Osajyefo
PENCILS/INKS: Tim Smith 3 – @TS3
COLORS/SHADES: Derwin Roberson
LETTERS/SFX: Dave Sharpe
EDITOR: Sarah Litt
COVER: Tim Smith 3
32pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (Diamond-FEB181179 – April 25, 2018)
Rated M/Mature
Black [AF] created by Kwanza Osajyefo and Tim Smith 3
Black – also known as Black [AF] – is a six-issue comic book miniseries created by Kwanza Osajyefo and Tim Smith 3. It was first introduced to the public as a Kickstarter crowdfunding project seeking to raise $29,999, but ultimately raised almost $100,000. Black is set in a world where only Black people have super-powers (called “Quarks”), and this world is suddenly and shockingly forced on Kareem Jenkins, who discovers that he is “empowered.”
Now, a second miniseries recently arrived and is entitled Black: Widows and Orphans. It written by Kwanza Osajyefo and Tim Smith 3; drawn by Smith 3; colored by Derwin Roberson; and lettered by Dave Sharpe.
Black: Widows and Orphans #1 opens as the first empowered U.S. senator is nearly assassinated by a ninja! However, the empowered of the “Project” are there to stop it, but a revelation of what the assassin is delivers a shocker. He is connected to the past of one of the Project's empowered, Anansi, who, as a child, was trained as a Ninja.
Anansi is on a mission to return to her former clan, “the Amime” and to learn what has become of what was once her family. However, the Project's leader, Juncture, insists that Anansi take with her someone who can watch her back. Now, Hoodrat finds herself following her mentor, Anansi, into the world of the ninja.
The original Black miniseries was published in black and white with toning, but Black: Widows and Orphans is in glorious full-color. Colorist Derwin Roberson delivers such vivid hues that I thought I was having a trippy experience while reading this first issue. Roberson's color art here really goes a long way in not only making this miniseries distinct form the original, but also in selling the setting of this series as a world beyond the normal – beyond even the world of the Quarks and empowered.
I was so used to the original miniseries' artist, Jamal Igle, that I was initially somewhat put off by Tim Smith 3's quirky, anime-style art. It was not long before I was seriously loving Smith's compositions and the kinetic feel of his graphical storytelling. I also like that Smith 3 makes Black: Widows and Orphans distinct from the first series as a graphics package.
As usual, I enjoy the scriptwriting of Kwanza Osajyefo, who always makes his work something different from standard superhero comic book fare. It is as if he is stubbornly eccentric and offbeat, but that is why I think that will help Black [AF] survive as a strong, superhero comic book of color. Kwanza's words will make this story the kind of Black sci-fi that can weather the slings and arrows of outrageous comic book shop owners who don't want “blacks, homos, and freaking females” on the pecker-wood of their KKK store shelves. And Dave Sharpe's sharp lettering assures that we can read every chocolate thunder word.

Review: NEW CHALLENGERS #1
NEW CHALLENGERS No. 1
DC COMICS – @DCComics
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: Scott Snyder and Aaron Gillespie
PENCILS: Andy Kubert
INKS: Klaus Janson
COLORS: Brad Anderson
LETTERS: Deron Bennett
EDITOR: Rebecca Taylor
COVER: Andy Kubert with Brad Anderson
32pp, Color, $2.99 U.S. (July 2018)
Rated “T” for Teen
Challengers of the Unknown created by Jack Kirby
Part 1
DC Comics has launched a new superhero comic book initiative, “The New Age of DC Heroes,” coming out of its Dark Nights: Metal event miniseries. This line of comic books will consist of eight new comic book series: The Curse of Brimstone, Damage, The Immortal Men, Sideways, The Silencer, The Terrifics, The Unexpected, and the subject of this review, New Challengers.
New Challengers is the seventh release (with only The Unexpected still due). The series is written by Scott Snyder and Aaron Gillespie; drawn by Andy Kubert (pencils) and Klaus Janson (inks); colored by Brad Anderson; and lettered by Deron Bennett. New Challengers is a reboot of the Jack Kirby creation, Challengers of the Unknown. This feature focused on group of adventurers that first appeared in Showcase #6 (cover dated: February 1957) and appeared off-and-on in various forms and in comic books over the next six decades.
New Challengers #1 takes place during the events depicted in Dark Nights: Metal. Trina Alvarez, Robert Brink, Moses Barber, and a man who insists on being called “Krunch” are dead. Their first post-mortem stop is Challengers Mountain, and now it is time for them to meet the mysterious “Professor,” or as he calls himself, “The Prof.” He is giving these “misfit strangers” a second chance at life, but only if they obey the orders of the Prof and execute deadly missions in the most unexplored corners of the multiverse. And before the first mission even begins, one them dies!
I can say that I am intrigued by New Challengers. I am a fan of artist Andy Kubert and have been for almost three decades, so I tend to want to read any comic book that he draws. However, although Kubert's pencil art is inked by the great Klaus Janson, this is far from being close to Kubert's best work The page design is impressive, but the storytelling does not aspire to be anything more than professionally polished. Brad Anderson covers Kubert-Janson's compositions in his shimmering, evocative colors. Deron Bennett wrangles the Challengers Mountain worth of dialogue in this first issue with sterling lettering and graphic design. So that does make things, from a graphical storytelling point of view, a little better.
Writers Scott Snyder and Aaron Gillespie tease as much as they leave things about this story vague. I thought too much about this first issue was coy. Would it have killed DC Comics to make all first issues of “New Age” titles double-sized? New Challengers #1 definitely needs to be at least regular-size and a half. Twenty pages is a joke; 30 pages would have made this a better first issue. Honestly, as it is, New Challengers #1 is only a little above average, but I will try the second issue.

Review: ZEITGEIST #1
ZEITGEIST No. 1
APPROBATION COMICS
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: B. Alex Thompson – @ApproBAT
ART: John River
COLORS: John River
LETTERS: B. Alex Thompson
EDITORS: B. Alex Thompson and John P. Ward
COVER: John River
36pp, Color, $4.99 U.S.
Rated: Teen 13+
Zeitgeist is a comic book series published by Approbation Comics. It is written and lettered by Approbation boss, B. Alex Thompson, and drawn and colored by John River. The series, which is told in an episodic style that mimics a Sunday newspaper comic strip, follows the misadventures of on-the-go twenty-somethings.
Zeitgeist #1 presents Strips 001 to 036. This first issue opens in a large comic book store. Employee Isabelle Fanning spies a customer handling a graphic novel in an appropriate and damaging manner. After confronting the young man, she discovers that his name is Max Yeung, and he is a screenwriter. After some witty repartee, it is decided that Isabelle will read a screenplay Max recently sold and give him feedback. Truthfully, Isabelle is very attracted to Max, but a chance encounter with Isabelle's friend, Leah Winters, leads to hilarity.
The interior pages of Zeitgeist #1 are printed in the landscape format, so readers will have to read it as if they were flipping through a calendar. When I first received a review copy of this comic book from Approbation, I was not sure if I was annoyed or not. I prefer to read comic books the same way I normally do – left to right in the “portrait” layout.
Still, there was something about Zeitgeist that kept bugging me and attracting my attention, so I finally surrendered and read it. Zeitgeist is good – really good. It has a situation comedy (sitcom) quality and is somewhat similar to many of the popular television sitcoms of the last three decades that focus on groups of friends, including “Friends,” “How I Met Your Mother,” and Living Single,” to name a few. B. Alex Thompson has created some especially likable characters; you will not have to read too far into the first issue to feel like you want to hang out with these characters.
Zeitgeist really seems to capture a defining spirit of modern times... or attempting to do so.
The art by John River is clean and expressive. It is like a combination of the graphic styles found in alt-comix and college newspaper comic strips. River uses minimal backgrounds, but they are still highly suggestive. I found my imagination filling in the rest of the environments. I think many readers will find themselves filling out the story by putting themselves in this comic book.

STORY: B. Alex Thompson – @ApproBAT
ART: John River

Rated: Teen 13+
Zeitgeist is a comic book series published by Approbation Comics. It is written and lettered by Approbation boss, B. Alex Thompson, and drawn and colored by John River. The series, which is told in an episodic style that mimics a Sunday newspaper comic strip, follows the misadventures of on-the-go twenty-somethings.
Zeitgeist #1 presents Strips 001 to 036. This first issue opens in a large comic book store. Employee Isabelle Fanning spies a customer handling a graphic novel in an appropriate and damaging manner. After confronting the young man, she discovers that his name is Max Yeung, and he is a screenwriter. After some witty repartee, it is decided that Isabelle will read a screenplay Max recently sold and give him feedback. Truthfully, Isabelle is very attracted to Max, but a chance encounter with Isabelle's friend, Leah Winters, leads to hilarity.
The interior pages of Zeitgeist #1 are printed in the landscape format, so readers will have to read it as if they were flipping through a calendar. When I first received a review copy of this comic book from Approbation, I was not sure if I was annoyed or not. I prefer to read comic books the same way I normally do – left to right in the “portrait” layout.
Still, there was something about Zeitgeist that kept bugging me and attracting my attention, so I finally surrendered and read it. Zeitgeist is good – really good. It has a situation comedy (sitcom) quality and is somewhat similar to many of the popular television sitcoms of the last three decades that focus on groups of friends, including “Friends,” “How I Met Your Mother,” and Living Single,” to name a few. B. Alex Thompson has created some especially likable characters; you will not have to read too far into the first issue to feel like you want to hang out with these characters.

Zeitgeist is a comic book series published by Approbation Comics. It is written and lettered by Approbation boss, B. Alex Thompson, and drawn and colored by John River. The series is told in an episodic style that mimics a Sunday newspaper comic strip. Zeitgeist follows the misadventures of on-the-go twenty-somethings: Max Yeung, Isabelle Fanning, Leah Winters, and Cassie Washington.
Zeitgeist #2 presents Strips 037 to 072. This second issue opens in the morning with Isabelle discovering a naked Max in Leah's apartment. WTF?! He booty was supposed to belong to Isabelle! The day gets even worse when Isabelle discovers that the comic book store is closing, which means that she will be out of a job in probably less than two months. To lighten the mood, Leah suggests dinner with her parents, which leads to revelations about the extent of her and Isabelle's relationship. Plus, Max is determined to tag along.
The interior pages of Zeitgeist #2 are printed in the landscape format, so readers will have to read it as if they are flipping through a calendar, just as they did for the first issue. When I first received a review copy of the first two issues of Zeitgeist from Approbation, I was not sure if I was annoyed or not. I prefer to read comic books the same way I normally do – left to right in the “portrait” layout.
Well, after reading the second issue, I actually like this landscape slash Sunday newspaper comics page format. I am surprised to find myself not only enjoying Zeitgeist, but also anticipating more of it. It's like a version of all our favorite sitcoms about groups of friends, from “Seinfeld” and “Living Single” to copycats like “Friends” and “Will & Grace.”
The art by John River is clean and expressive, which serves the narrative's focus on dialogue and character interaction. River's art has a knack for focusing on facial expression which makes the characters' emotions clear and gives heft to the character drama and comedy. I think Zeitgeist is deserving of a larger readership, and I hope people head to comiXology to purchase an issue.

Review: THE MAN OF STEEL #1
THE MAN OF STEEL No. 1 (2018)
DC COMICS – @DCComics
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
SCRIPT: Brian Michael Bendis
PENCILS: Ivan Reis; Jason Fabok (pp. 21-22)
INKS: Joe Prado; Jason Fabok (pp. 21-22)
COLORS: Alex Sinclair
LETTERS: Cory Petit
EDITOR: Michael Cotton
COVER: Ivan Reis and Joe Prado with Alex Sinclair
32pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (July 2018)
Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster
“Man of Steel “ Part 1
In November 2017, Marvel Comics' best writer of the last two decades, Brian Michael Bendis, ended his tenure with Marvel and signed an exclusive deal with Marvel's rival, DC Comics. It was not long before rumors of Bendis focusing on the character Superman were burning up the e-grapevine.
After serving up a Superman tale in the anthology and milestone comic book, Action Comics #1000, Brian Michael Bendis officially begins his tenure as the lead writer of the Superman comic book line with the six-issue, weekly miniseries, The Man of Steel. Each issue will feature a different art team, and the artists for the first issue are Ivan Reis (pencils) and Joe Prado (inks), with Jason Fabok drawing the story's last two pages (pp. 21-22). Alex Sinclair colors, and Cory Petit letters.
The Man of Steel #1 opens sometime in the past when a being named “Rogol Zaar” declares that Krypton must destroyed. Kryptonians mean to destroy the rest of the galaxy, according to Rogol, so they must be destroyed first. Rogol believes he is just the being who can and should do the destroying. Back in the present, Superman believes that he has discovered that arson is plaguing a particular section of Metropolis. Meanwhile, Clark Kent deals with work and family, not realizing that a new threat to destroy him is emerging.
In late 1986, DC Comics published a special, event miniseries, entitled The Man of Steel. Written and drawn by John Byrne, then one of the most popular and powerful comic book writer-artists, The Man of Steel re-imagined, rebooted, and modernized Superman. After decades of stagnation up to the mid-1980s (according to some), the Superman comic book line needed a course correction. Byrne's The Man of Steel was a seismic shift in terms of what a Superman comic book could and should be.
Brian Michael Bendis' The Man of Steel 2018 is quieter because it does not need to modernize Superman. John Byrne already did that, beginning with The Man of Steel during his subsequent two-year run as writer-artist and writer on Superman, Action Comics, and The Adventures of Superman titles. Since he does not have to modernize Superman, Bendis can focus on the character and personality of the Man of Steel.
Bendis presents Superman/Clark Kent as stoic and stalwart, but with a generous sense of humor. I think that this Bendis Superman of the comic books is so like the cinematic Superman portrayed by beloved actor, the late Christopher Reeve. Bendis's Superman is not so different from Patrick J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason's Man of Steel, as seen during their recent run on the flagship comic book, Superman, except the emotional component of Bendis' Superman/Clark Kent is a bit edgier, even with the humor present.
Apparently, from what I have read, Bendis is rewriting Superman's origins. Still, 2018 The Man of Steel does not seem like a sea change in terms of Superman's world and fictional mythology the way the 1986 Byrne miniseries was and still is. However, from a character and emotional point of view, Bendis may adding or changing something rather than fashioning a new Man of Steel

Review: SURFACING: Depth Perceptions #3
SURFACING: DEPTH PERCEPTIONS No. 3 (OF 4)
APPROBATION COMICS
[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]
STORY: B. Alex Thompson – @ApproBAT
ART: Nenad Cviticanin
COLORS: Santtos
LETTERS: Krugos
EDITOR: John Ward and Denise Thompson
COVER: Cesar Grego and Alivon Ortiz
24pp, Color, $4.99 U.S. (2017; digital release date – January 10, 2018)
Rated: “M” for Mature / 17+ Only (comiXology)
Published by Approbation Comics, Surfacing: Depth Perceptions is a four-issue comic book miniseries. It tells the story of Marcus Wright, a young man who visits an oceanic research facility directed by his childhood friend, Anton Parker, who has a business deal to offer Marcus. The facility has captured a mermaid-like creature, and Marcus finds himself caught in the mystery of this creature and of its captivity. Surfacing: Depth Perceptions is written by B. Alex Thompson; drawn by Nenad Cviticanin; colored by Santtos; and lettered by Krugos.
Surfacing: Depth Perceptions #3 opens with Marcus returning to the research room to engage in another extensive conversation with the mermaid, whom he has named “Becca.” Anton has warned Marcus that “it,” as he calls Becca, has the ability to “mess” with his mind and to manipulate people.
Believing that he is on to Becca's game, Marcus is prepared to interrogate her, but she won't give anything for free. She reveals information about herself and some about her people, but does Marcus believe her sometimes shocking tale? Does he even have a reason to believe Anton?
The first two issues of Surfacing: Depth Perceptions are some of the prettiest comic books Approbation Comics has published to date. The cover art for this series features gorgeous illustrations and shimmering colors by Cesar Grego and Alivon Ortiz; the covers are like eye candy. The interior art by Nenad Cviticanin continues to get better with each chapter, as does the coloring by Santtos. Nenad's graphical storytelling also continues to get stronger, thanks to B. Alex Thompson's excellent scripts. Let's even give a shout-out to Krugos' lettering.
As I have said before, B. Alex Thompson is one of the best writers of naturalistic dialogue in American comic books. I look forward to reading the conversations between the characters in every issue of Surfacing: Depth Perceptions, but this third issue has some hot talk that suggests a (literally) killer ending.
Thompson usually delivers high-quality genre storytelling, and he certainly delivers in again in Surfacing: Depth Perceptions #3. This is an excellent comic book, and, dear readers, head over to comiXology to read it. I hope the final issue does not disappoint, as I have high hopes.

Bart Simpson Breaks Out is a new trade paperback comic book collection from Harper Design. Bart Simpson Breaks Out collects comic book short stories and short gags that were originally published in the comic book series, Bart Simpson, specifically issues #78, #79, #80, #81, #82, and #83. (cover dated: January 2013 to May 2013).
Bart Simpson is one of the lead characters in the long-running animated television sitcom, “The Simpsons” (Fox). “The Simpsons” presents a satirical depiction of a working class family which consists of Homer Simpson (the father), Marge Simpson (the mother), Bart (the oldest child and only son), Lisa (the precocious and brilliant elder daughter), and Maggie (a baby girl). “The Simpsons” also parodies American culture, pop culture, society, politics, media, etc. via the denizens of The Simpsons home town, Springfield.
In 1993, Bongo Comics Group (or simply Bongo Comics) began publishing numerous comic book series and single-issue publications based on “The Simpsons.” Beginning in 2000, Bongo gave Bart his on title, Simpsons Comics Presents Bart Simpson (or simply Bart Simpson). The comics presented in Bart Simpson Breaks Out collects stories published in the final quarter of the series. Bart Simpson ended with issue #100 in 2016 (and Bongo ceased publishing in 2018).
I really enjoyed the previous Bart Simpson trade paperback, 2018's Bart Simpson Bust-Up, and I happy to tell you, dear readers, that Bart Simpson Breaks Out is just as good.
The opening story, “The Booty” (written by Pat McGreal and drawn by Rex Lindsey and Dan Davis), is a cute story with a funny pie-eating contest in the middle. However, Breaks Out really... breaks out with the second story, “I'd Rather Bleed Than Read” (by Shane Houghton, Nina Matsumoto, and Andrew Pepoy), which finds Principal Seymour Skinner trapping Bart in the Springfield Elementary school library in order to force the lad to read at least one book. The resolution to the story is rather novel, if not a stroke of genius.
“Bartman vs. Doctor Octuplets” (by Ian Boothby, John Delaney, and Pepoy) is one of two stories featuring Bart's superhero alter-ego, “Bartman.” It has a neat take on Spider-Man villain, Doctor Octopus, via Kwik-E-Mart manager, Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, and his brood of children. The second Bartman story, “Who the Bartman?” (by Arne Kaplan, Tone Rodriguez, and Pepoy), offers a novel take on how Bart's classmates view Bartman.
Breaks Out has two Maggie Simpson stories written and drawn by the great alternative comic book creator, Carol Lay. The first one, “Maggie and the Moon,” is quite poignant and beautiful. That heartwarming vibe also makes an appearance in the story, “The Todd & the Rodyssey” (by Mike W. Barr, Delaney, and Pepoy). Ned Flanders is a featured character here, but his sons, Rod and Todd, are the stars of this story of escape and survival. The last two panels of this fast-moving and delightful comic presses all my buttons of sentimentality.
The other stories are also pretty good, especially the Springfield Elementary “Junior Mafia” tale. I got a kick out of “The Demon” (by Max Davison, Delaney, and Pepoy), because I generally like ghost story-themed tales told in a kids' comic books published by everyone from Archie Comics to whatever company is publishing comic books featuring Disney characters.
In some of my reviews of Simpsons Comics paperback collections, I have said that one does not have to be a fan of “The Simpsons” to like them. This is the case with Bart Simpson Breaks Out, because this book is full of top-notch humor comics. Bart Simpson Breaks Out is too funny to pass up.
