CBR Review: The Last Phantom #2

I recently reviewed The Last Phantom #2 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "Two months ago, when The Last Phantom #1 came out, former CBR reviewer/current CBR columnist Tim Callahan gave the issue half a star and wrote, 'Perhaps the series should be retitled: "The Last Phantom For Now, Sure, But It Will Make Your Eyes Bleed."' I didn’t disagree, but hoped the second issue would offer some improvement with the awkwardness of introducing the concept having been accomplished. And there is improvement, but not much at all. It’s still a painfully obvious and clunky comic with ugly, overly rendered art."

CBR Review: Buck Rogers #3

I recently reviewed Buck Rogers #3 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "Buck Rogers is dead. Stranded in his space suit with only 12 hours of oxygen near Mars, he’s been missing for nine days. The opening scene of Buck Rogers #3 creates a pretty harrowing situation for the eponymous hero that matches John Cassaday’s chilling cover. The rest of the issue explains exactly how this opening scene can be true and, yet, the book continues with Buck in tow."
