The series of “X-Men” begins in a little odd manner with different girls from the new mutants changed into an unrealistic high school setting. It does take a little time for the readers to get into the thick of things. The issue highlights the unique style of the writer who after a recent overlooked stint returns with a more commercialized series.
The story of the debut issue of the S.W.O.R.D. is quite different from what its cover has to suggest. Look at the cover. Don’t you get a feeling that that it would be a very serious super agent comic based in space? Well! Guys! This is actually closer to comic books like “She-Hulk” and “Secret Warriors”. Kieron Gillen has done a fabulous job with the humor of the story which appears to be in sync with the drama of the story. However, the work of the artist Steven Sanders in the issue is far from being satisfactory.
Dark Horse comics have come up with an adventurous new series called the Beasts of Burden. The first issue has been written by Evan Dorkin and the art in the issue is a work of Jill Thompson. Although the issue gives an excitement to the readers, it is not a read for all ages. It becomes difficult at times to determine who the characters really are as they disappear even fast than they appear. There is no real logic behind their portrayal and the prime of example of this being the Character of the Shaggy sheepdog. The confusion of the readers at the appearance of this character is even evident in the faces of the other characters of this issue.
