Bravest Warriors #4

The new series from the creator of Adventure Time is now an ongoing series. This issue marks the conclusion of the debut arc. The Bravest Warriors have to band together to defeat the most nefarious villain of all…Sadness, bro! But Sadness isn’t going down without a weepy fight!

If there’s one comic I seem to laugh at consistently, it’s Bravest Warriors, a twister adult story with the look of a children’s cartoon. The first arc wraps up with a conclusion that at the same time made my head hurt and had me laughing.

The conclusion of the arc is over the top and putting two much thought into it, you might not enjoy it, but the comic is supposed to be over the top and not necessarily make sense. To offend, to make you laugh, to entertain you, this comic does that and more.

Bravest Warriors, I might have had my doubts, but so glad I checked it out. A great series that keeps me entertained month after month with each issue.

Supurbia #3

After last month’s shocking events, Hella struggles to keep her carefully constructed suburban world from crumbling around her… While Jeremy and Eli attempt to escape the jungles of Mongolia, with the Daughters of Bright Moon hot on their tail, the Jenkins marriage hits a snag as Tia wishes to rejoin the “workforce…” Zari and Sara’s play-date is crashed by an uninvited visitor, and Gio makes an announcement that shocks the world, but none more so than Paul… All that, AND a cliffhanger that will have everyone talking. Don’t miss it!

That cliffhanger was good, but I think the highlight of the comic is right there on one of the covers, the one with Agent Twilight and hints at Night Fox. The most soap opera-esque plot line also gets the least number of pages. There’s a lot going on and a decent amount to keep track of, but Randolph pulls it off masterfully, making it easy to follow and everything gets the time it deserves.

The series might star characters that’d fit in any super hero comic, it’s more soap opera than anything else and it’s beyond entertaining. If you’re a fan of super hero comics, but are bored of the usual bad guy vs. good guy plots, do yourself a favor and check out this series.
