Ghost-Machine had a really good week. Redcoat kept a high bar throughout all issues but #7 was the best one in the series so far. Very character focused and it showed the plight of being an immortal man very convincingly. Devour was a solid debut. It had a creepy vibe going on, a closed story and despite being double-sized it read very quickly, I was surprised when I got to the end. I thought that Pengiun special was something from that Tom King series, so I didn't even think about reading it. Since it's Jeremy Adams I'll check it out.
Despite some strong competition (especially Transformers), I think Night Club 2 might be my favourite comic right now. Mark Millar has just raised the stakes so high and I genuinely cannot wait to see how it all pans out. I enjoyed the first series, but he's really made me care about these characters. Every single writer at Marvel should pay attention - THIS is how you write a good, action packed comic with character development and high stakes. I also have to give praise to Magic Order V. I've only read the first volume, so the fact I'm still able to follow the story without the missing volumes (which I will go back and read at some point) is testament to his writing skills. Not had a chance to read Redcoat yet, but all the Ghost Machine books are terrific. At one point Redcoat was my favourite, but Geiger has gone up a gear and Rook: Exodus continues to provide strong competition. They are all superb.
You gave up American comics years ago. Are you going on your opinion of his past work, or are you reading his current work, which would make you a straight up liar, Liam? I hope it’s the latter!
@ Of course I’m not reading his current stuff, but every single thing I read from him for 10 years was excellent, and all his stuff now is still getting good reviews so that’s why I said this. But wow, even when I praise current comics you still come in with your usual drek, funny as usual. And you’re hoping it’s the latter? So you want me to be a liar? And what does “Liam” mean?
@@InfamyOrDeath-__- clearly this is your Twitter feed, and the L stands for Liam. Fun fact kids: there is NO discussion of comics or manga on this feed until he started shitting up Perch’s comments sections. For most of its run it’s just flopping on his belly and banging his fists on the ground about COVID lockdowns. Which is totally fine; the lockdowns were a disaster, especially because they created embittered children like you. But did you got to a protest? Have you involved yourself in local politics to make sure things like that never happen again? Naaaaaaah, you’re just mean online.
Modern writers turned the Penguin into a irremediable monster. I cheer for Ghost Machine success, Geoff Johns deserves. Marvel had another awful week again. Not surprised because Marvel don't put any effort to improve the quality of your main titles for years at this point. This company become trash in these days.
For Action Comics, I like that Clark and Mon-El worked together to find and defeat Xa-Du before Aeyther send Clark back in time to before Kryton’s destruction. Aside from the Conner and Kenan part (which is just them noticing that they’re on an intergalactic tour or something). This comic is great! For the Supergirl backup, at least we get to see who the prisoner is (but know what they look like underneath that mask) before Kara encountered them without any explanation to why Kara was sent here. Overall, this backup is okay. For ASM, here is what I have to say. The first part shows Tombstone being not guilty (and thus freed from prison) and Peter (as Spider-Man) fighting Sandman and telling Aunt May why her nephew called Spider-Man for help. That’s it. The second part shows Rek-Rap being here to stay, which might result in Joe Kelly barely using him in his run of ASM. Although, I do find it hilarious that Peter has to pay three thousand dollars after helping Rek-Rap at the hospital. For the third part, I like that Peter and MJ worked together to defeat criminals; however, their going out on a double date with Paul and Shay (in which Peter is going out with Shay and MJ going out with Paul) is a “screw you” to us because we want to see Peter and MJ together. Overall, this is an okay (but weak) backup. For the fourth part, I like that Peter and Logan celebrated Logan’s birthday in a bar to talk and spend time with each other, without Logan getting hunted or attacked by Sabertooth (since Logan killed him in the Sabertooth War in his solo series). Overall, this is a nice backup. For the fifth part, I like that Peter and Ben have a chat, where Ben tells Peter that he’s not obsessed with him anymore (which is good); however, it shows him attempting to steal Peter’s life again at the end of this part, which shows that Ben is still not over it. Overall, this backup is weak. For the sixth and final part, it’s interesting that Peter was told by Doom the Sorcerer Supreme that he’s going to die eight times. Let’s hope that Joe Kelly knows what he’s doing in his ASM run. Overall, this backup is interesting. Something that I can say for this comic is that we’re finally free of the Zeb Wells run. That’s it. For Chasm: Curse of Kaine, It’s just Druig controlling Ben into fighting Janine before he was saved by Kane and Janine, resulting in them working together to defeat an upcoming threat and find Druig. That’s it. Overall, this comic is weak.
Thanks again for the recommendations. Do you only read new books or do you read older comics too? I realize that you read a lot of new issues to review, but how often do you read older books that you may have missed? Just curious.
@@DeadpoolNegative And you know you don’t have to post your negative reply to peoples comments constantly. That’s all you seem to do, you never comment with your own opinion on something, you only post on the same few peoples comments. Adding absolutely nothing at all, at least your name is perfect having “negative” in it. But please continue, seeing the seething for the same few people is hilarious, I doubt AL has said a single thing to you before you started to reply to her. What about this comment set you off? Just a nice comment praising a person’s appearance, and this got under the skin, kind of hilarious.
@ try looking in a mirror for once, dude. I’ve had 40 years of people like you trying to drag everyone else down to their level of misery and I’m tired of it. But what really gets under my skin about you and AL is that you’re clearly miserable fakes who have no joy and nothing to say because you don’t care about comics. It’s just a fun place to be mad and pretend you still exist and have friends by popping up in a comments section instead of going outside and building a life.
Hi Wes. Listen are you planning on doing some retrospective videos? Because if you want I can give some ideas. you could do a video on: -DC meets (crossover series of one/shots that saw DC heroes cross over with classic cartoon franchises like Hanna- Barbera and Looney Tunes) -Hanna Barbera Beyond (DC's attempt at reintroducing classic Hanna - Barbera characters and giving them a darker makeover ranging from horrors of Scooby Apocalypse to darkly comedic satire of the Flintstones and everything inbetween) -Comics that feature cartoon visuals and I'm not talking just Skottie Young (although he's an absolute pro and a national treasure) , i'm talking about comics made by cartoonists like Bob Camp , Bill Wray , Stephen Destefano , Kyle Baker , Mike Ploog etc. I'll give you an example : Genndy Tartakovsky (a veteran of the animation industry) made a comic about Luke Cage called CAGE! and it's very much a Genndy made title. Believe me Wes you won't be disappointed. And finally Wes because Christmas is only a month away , you should do a Christmas themed video(somewhere around the first week of December) about comics and comic book recommendations to get readers into the holiday spirit. And one more thing: since The Penguin is a huge hit for HBO and you just reviewed a Penguin comic by Jeremy Adams , what are you on The Penguin comic by Tom King. Is it any good?

Geoff Johns doing his stuff as usual, best writer in comics.

Naaaaaaah, you’re just mean online.
Thanks for the effort fellas. I’ll have to consider picking up Devour and Penguin.
Only legends would remember a clean shaven Wes.
I did not read the Swamp Thing book because I feared what she would do to him. Now I know I can pick it up and read safely
I love anything with Ivy and Swamp Thing
Poison Ivy used 2 be good, but DC really wanted 2 ruin her.
Just found out Uncanny Valley, wanted 2 read, now even more.

Not surprised because Marvel don't put any effort to improve the quality of your main titles for years at this point. This company become trash in these days.
I enjoyed the latest issue of SSoC, Spawn, and the one-off Devour.
Good vid.
I wanted to pick up that Poison Ivy/Swamp Thing book. I ended up not grabbing it because even the regular cover was $6. Nah.
I read it and it’s an ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE imo. Worth getting

Good stuff this week. DC: Poison Ivy/ Swamp thing Special, Action Comics, Penguin Special. Marvel: 0. Indies: Redcoat, Night Club, Feral and Kosher Mafia.
i am so happy because they bring back mon el original story and that he is kal Brother
and that he lives in the modern times
Jeremy Adams deserves writer of the year tbh
Eisners are a joke now
@@truespartan1000 Yep it's like the Oscars, bought and paid for by the people who are trying to be the WOKE kings and Queens of the world.
Jeremy Adams is probably the best writer at DC right now.
@@AL-ws5yithat’s not hard.
Yeah he’s the only current writer I keep up with right now. I buy all of his books.
I enjoyed DC HORROR PRESENTS.
While celebrating diwali in new jersey

Devour was a good read, better than anything EC or Creep Show is putting out
Drew looks good with or without a beard.

Infamy simping again smh
Question for the week. Who you prefer: Kushina Uzumaki(Naruto) or gine(from dragon ball) ?
What in the what?
Never read Naruto & don’t plan to, never liked the character designs in that manga at all.
I can understand and respect your choice. I personally like Kushina uzumaki.
@@InfamyOrDeath-__-just like me 😂
I never was interested in Naruto in the big 3
kushina, i wish the author gave more past stories about her
