Sometimes, the staff at Graphic Policy read more comics than we’re able to get reviewed. When that happens you’ll see a weekly feature compiling short reviews from the staff of the comics, or graphic novels, we just didn’t get a chance to write a full review for. Given the lack of new comics, expect this weekly update to begin featuring comics that we think you’ll enjoy while you can’t get anything new to read – only new to you.
These are Graphic Policy’s Mini Reviews and Recommendations.
Logan
Saga #57 (Image)– Saga #57 is light on action, but Brian K Vaughan and Fiona Staples use this installment to have the pain of Marko’s really sink in and also get to know the pirates that Alana, Hazel, and Squire are running with. Plus there’s a full page splash of Ghus, who is still happy and innocent after going through so much trauma. The flashback also shows the extent that Alana has gone to survive in a world without her husband. Along with this, there’s also a B-plot featuring The Will building intrigue and conflict between the Robot Kingdom and Landfall. The war in Saga is pointless, but Vaughan and Staples continue to do an excellent job showing how it impacts the cast of the book. Overall : 7.8 Verdict: Buy
Well, there you have it, folks. The reviews we didn’t quite get a chance to write. See you next week!
Please note that with some of the above comics, Graphic Policy was provided FREE copies for review. Where we purchased the comics, you’ll see an asterisk (*). If you don’t see that, you can infer the comic was a review copy. In cases where we were provided a review copy and we also purchased the comic you’ll see two asterisks (**).
