[...] THE IMMORTAL IRON FIST #1 (Marvel) I don’t care who it is – give a D-list Marvel character a new book, and I’ll be first in line to try it out. You can have your Spider-Mans and Captain Americas, but for me, the best, most intricate, most interesting characters are the ones that tend to stay in the shadows of the biggies. In the past few months, we’ve seen the returns of Blade, Moon Knight and now, after about six failed relaunch attempts in the past decade, it’s time for Danny Rand – aka Iron Fist – to get a gritty new feel, courtesy of writers Ed Brubaker and Matt Faction.

To MARY HARTMAN and THE GONG SHOW! It wasn’t given time to develop into something special or distinctive, and thus, ESSENTIAL NOVA merits only a minor recommendation, especially when there are much better recent ESSENTIAL volumes out there. –Rod Lott [...]

[...] Like the recent ESSENTIAL MOON KNIGHT, ESSENTIAL GODZILLA benefits from having Moench drive the thing from beginning to end, as well as a regular artist. With the exception of two early issues, they’re all drawn by the very talented Herb Trimpe, whose bold style is well-suited for this property. –Rod Lott [...]
