GREEN LANTERN #34
CREATIVE TEAM
Writer: Jeremy Adams
Artist: IG Guara and Montos
Colorist: Romulo Fajardo Jr.
Letterer: Dave Sharpe
Green Lantern #34 shows signs that it will take time for the series to find its grove again. Splitting the series up between Kyle Rayner’s Earth adventures and Hal Jordan following cosmic adventures is a lot to follow. There is only so much time to give to each. That is nothing against the actual progress made, as Jeremy Adams writing for both Kyle and Hal is on point. IG Guara and Montos also do a great job giving each a unique flair while keeping a consistent look. As the series progresses it can find its flow going between what Kyle and Hal are doing separately.
Overall Rating: 6.5 Night Girls out of 10
ROGUE #4
CREATIVE TEAM
Writer: Erica Schultz
Artist: Jim Towe
Colorist: Espen Grudetjern
Letterer: Ariana Maher
Rogue #4 does everything it needs to do to set-up a good finale for this mini-series. Erica Schultz and Jim Towe do this by giving a spotlight on Rogue’s physical powers as she does her thing. That does lead to some good action to get Rogue in the spot needed for the finale. Though because of that it runs into the typical penultimate chapter problem. That is, there isn’t much actual plot or character progress in the story. Hopefully the finale will be deliver on the promise set up by Rogue #4.
Overall Rating: 7 Night Girls out of 10
SORCERER SUPREME #5
CREATIVE TEAM
Writer: Steve Orlando
Artist: Bernard Chang
Colorist: Ruth Redmond
Letterer: Joe Sabino
Steve Orlando and Bernard Chang have done a very good job at showing how heavy of a weight being the Sorcerer Supreme is on whoever holds the title. We see that in Sorcerer Supreme #5 where on top of dealing with Agatha’s connection with Vishanti, Scarlet Witch must answer a distress call from Clea. There is no rest for the Sorcerer Supreme and Scarlet Witch once again shows she steps up with the battle she has against Dread Dormammu. This latest adventure continues to solidify this series as one of the best titles Marvel is producing right now.
Overall Rating: 9 Night Girls out of 10
VOID RIVALS #29
CREATIVE TEAM
Writer: Robert Kirkman
Artist: Andrei Bressan
Colorist: Dee Cunniffe
Letterer: Rus Wooton
Void Rivals #29 does a great job at feeling like everyone in this issue has thrown all their cards down on the table. There is no hiding anymore as every side in the Quintesson War have to do all they can in order to win. That puts everyone involved in difficult situations that creates a lot of tense moments through the final page. That all works to have an ending that leaves you wondering how the finale in the next issue will resolve everything that’s gone on in the Quintesson War.
Overall Rating: 8 Night Girls out of 10
