Back in 2021, Keanu Reeves teamed up with Boom! Studios to bring us the comic book series Brzrkr, which Reeves wrote alongside Matt Kindt, working off of Reeves’ original idea. Netflix secured the rights to bring a live-action film adaptation of the comic book to their streaming service – and to follow that up with an anime spin-off series that will “expand the Brzrkr universe by exploring different elements of the story”. So far, there have been twelve issues of Brzrkr, as well as a couple one-shots called Poetry of Madness and Fallen Empire (which told of B.’s distant past). Reeves is also writing a book called Elsewhere with China Miéville that is “set in the world of Brzrkr“. While all of these stories play out on the page, the Netflix movie remains in development. Now it has been announced that we have another Brzrkr project to look forward to: a...

Following his hit Marvel Comics debut, The Rise of Ultraman, Ultraman’s incredible saga will continue next month in a brand-new series. The Trials of Ultraman will see the return of writers Kyle Higgins and Mat Groom and artist Francesco Manna as they dive even deeper into the fascinating Ultraman mythos. The new installment will pick up directly after Ultraman’s explosive battle with Bemular. Ultraman may have saved the world but now come the consequences.

In The Rise Of Ultraman, we had to create a whole new universe (built on the powerful concepts and characters of the original television shows). Then, in the final issue of Rise, we turned that world upside-down. Now, in The Trials Of Ultraman, we get to really explore...

Earlier this year, Marvel Comics collaborated with Tsuburaya Productions to bring readers The Rise of Ultraman, a new comic series that introduced the pop culture icon to new fans and delighted longtime Ultraman enthusiasts. Following this soaring debut, the Ultraman saga will continue this March in The Trials of Ultraman. The all-star team behind The Rise of Ultraman, writers Kyle Higgins and Mat Groom and artist Francesco Manna, return to continue to explore the fascinating Ultraman mythos.
The new installment will pick up after the epic conclusion of The Rise of Ultraman. Ultraman narrowly averted a catastrophe decades in the making. The world was saved – but, also, forever changed. Now…come the consequences. Much of the populace regard their defenders with suspicion. Enemies hide in plain sight, and even those closest to Shin Hayata don’t necessarily trust the Giant of Light. But at last, a long-thought-lost comrade has mysteriously returned!

First things first lets talk about the cover. Again it is provided by Rahzzah who has been on Weapon X for some time now. While Russia have spent much of their existence as public enemy number one in the eyes of the west their propaganda art as always provided inspiration for the comic world. It is a cover that is related to the story without falsely giving any plot about the story within. I have always praised Weapon X for its consistent pacing. However this issue felt a little frantic. The nature of the story probably didn’t help with this. You have Sabertooth trying to recruit Omega Red and screw over S.I.C.K.L.E at the same time. Omega Red is on a mission to kill someone who...
