But all she wants is to have a normal life. After witnessing the brutal slaying of her entire family, Ana Ishikawa (aka Shi), a descendent of the Sohei warrior monks of medieval Japan, transforms herself into the vengeful Shi, the living embodiment of Death.

The twist this time around is that it’s the present day heroes against the versions of themselves from the 1970s. You might think this sounds boring, but it really isn’t. The real twist here is finding out who is a Skrull. ![]() Brandon Borzelli's Geek Goggle Reviews Cable #3 The third issue of this series brings a new character for Cable to interact with. It also brings more questions about “how” and “why”. One refreshing aspect of the story telling actually has me rooting for both Cable and Bishop. Still the series just feels like it isn’t fully clicking all together. ![]() Midwest Book Review May 2008 The Comix/Graphic Novel Shelf The Midwest Book Review is an organization of volunteers committed to promoting literacy, library usage, and small press publishing.

![]() Brandon Borzelli's Geek Goggle Reviews Action Comics Annual #11 The long overdue finale of the Last Son arc finally hit stands. Sure, the easy thing to do would be to drone on and on about how late it was and how DC added insult to injury by upping the price by two thirds. I could easily talk about how all of this detracts from the story and maybe even the industry as a whole. Nope. I’m not going to do it. This issue was fantastic from start to finish.
