Welcome to this week in comic book reviews! The staff have come together to read and review nearly everything that released today. It isn t totally comprehensive, but it includes just about everything from DC and Marvel with the important books from the likes of Image, Boom, IDW, Scout, [.]
“Stakes, suspense, and agency,” those were the three elements drilled into me in a creative writing class many many years ago. Give your characters something to lose, give them a worsening problem, and give them the power to do something about it, the instructor told us, and you’ll solve three-quarters of your narrative problems. I think back on that trilogy a lot when I review comics, because sure enough those are often the three elements.
