Twilight Zone #1
Writer: Dan Watters
Artist: Morgan Beem
Publisher: IDW Publishing
Return to The Twilight Zone in this all-new anthology series featuring stories by some of the best creators in comics today! Each issue is a new tale in the vein of the iconic original television series that’s captivated audiences for over 60 years. And like the show, these stories will be revealed in terrifying black and white!
THIS ISSUE: Writer Dan Watters (Batman: Dark Patterns, Home Sick Pilots) and artist Morgan Beem (Swamp Thing: Twin Branches, Crashing) present “Blanks.” A terrified citizen regales a detective with a story about people suddenly frozen like statues. A once-bustling metropolis becomes quieter by the minute as people are replaced by featureless versions of themselves. Where one would have found hopes, laughter, tears, and struggles, one can now only find BLANKS… here in The Twilight Zone.
Star Trek: The Last Starship #1
Writer: Jackson Lanzing, Collin Kelly
Artist: Adrián Bonilla
Publisher: IDW Publishing
The Federation has fallen. Hope is fading. One last starship remains to fight for the future… unless a resurrected James T. Kirk dooms it first.
Fresh off the run Screen Rant calls one of “the greatest eras in the history of Star Trek comics,” writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly along with rising star and artist Adrián Bonilla (Alkaios, Let Her Be Evil), now bring you a new mission the likes of which comics have never seen before.
For seven centuries, the United Federation of Planets brought together the entire Galaxy with peace, stability, enlightenment, and the promise of mutual protection. And then, in one terrible moment, it all crumbled in an event known as THE BURN, a Galaxy-wide disastrous event in which dilithium has gone inert, causing the detonation of every active warp core. The only ship remaining is a hack-and-slash Enterprise-Omega and its ragtag crew. Facing a true Wild West in space, the crew will need to make use of what few resources they have to uphold Starfleet’s mission of unity across the universe… and Captain Kirk will have to face a future without the Federation he loved so dearly…
Street Sharks #1
Writer: Stephanie Williams
Artist: Ariel Medel
Publisher: IDW Publishing
The first Street Sharks comic in more than 20 years brings you extreme stories and a fintastic time! But don’t call it a comeback: They’ve been waiting for everyone ELSE to get ready for more jawsome adventures!
The four Bolton Brothers were happy playing sports and meeting babes. But when a run-in with a mad scientist turned them into giant sharks, they only got COOLER!
Kick some serious fin with Ripster, the great white head of the pack; Streex, the rollerblading ladies’ man (er, ladies’ SHARK); Jab, the hammerhead who loooves using his noggin; and Big Slammu, the whale shark with the whale-sized muscles, on their newest adventure! They’ll need all the help they can get to stop their arch nemesis, Dr. Piranoid, from developing… the perfect predator! Little do they know, it’s already too late to stop the grossest monster they’ve ever fought from being born!
Street Sharks, and any future comics based on 90s cartoons, faces the tough challenge of being compared to other big 90s nostalgia revivals, a comparison that isn’t entirely fair. Still, Stephanie Williams takes on this iconic series and handles it well. In the end, it does exactly what it sets out to do, scratch my nostalgia itch as well as entertain me along the way. I recommend this series for those looking to reminisce a bit about their childhood cartoons and see some crime-fighting sharks. – CLICK HERE to read the entire review
