For the answers to these deathless questions and more, DON'T MISS THIS ISSUE!

Score:

★★★★☆ (4/5)

QUICK REVIEW: 'The Least We Can Do' heads into a big battle, the confrontation we've all been waiting for. After a slow start, the action has picked up over the last two issues culminating in a huge showdown. The result is a rewarding and satisfying wall-to-wall action-packed finale that shows off all the training and use of powers that have been discussed ad nauseam throughout the series. Elisa Romboli's choreographed fighting is chaotic and balletic and magical all on the same page. It's an organized frenzy that just lets loose the action readers have been craving. The only thing that doesn't work is the sudden romance between Uriel and Sam. The mutual attraction came late in the series and seemed all too sudden to garner any believability. With the battle finally at hand, the future of the series would seem very bright as the foundation has been set to explore this fantasy world even further. If not, 'The Least We Can Do' stands alone as a capable fantasy series full of heart, emotion, and energy.

For longer than they can remember, these child vampires have lived a life of eternal wonder amongst the ruins of humanity.

Score: ★★★★1/2 (4.5/5) There are certain comic book creators whose books I'll pick up without hesitation. One of those creators is Jeff Lemire. He instills confidence knowing that his stories will be thoughtful and engaging. You add a talented artist like Dustin Nguyen on another collaborative effort and well, 'Little Monsters,' is a must-buy.

Two years later, the USA responded with two monkeys, Able and Baker. These animals never returned. But, unbeknownst to everyone, they did not die in orbit...they were taken. And now they are coming home. Score:  ★★★★1/2 (4.5/5) Few things can pique the interest of a comic book reader like a good ole conspiracy thriller. The latest example is the excellent new series from James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds entitled 'The Department of Truth' that's been a bestseller for Image Comics. It proposes conspiracy theories can be all-too-real and for Jeff Lemire, Andrea Sorrentino, and Dave St...
