And we’re back to the grind, as I am back in Alaska doing my thing once again. Let’s skip the prelude, though, and get straight into what we’re here for: a look at the comics I’m keeping an eye on this week as I visit my local comic shop.

Comic of the Week: Masterpiece #6

It hasn’t really gotten talked about as much as it should, so consider this my note to everyone that Masterpiece? It’s fantastic. It’s another example of just how great Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev are together, with the former building the voices of a whole bunch of great new characters in this story and the latter delivering some of the finest art in comics right now. Combine the two, and you have a zippy, fun, and dangerous read with a winning lead and an ensemble that you cannot help but love. Masterpiece has been slept on, but as it ends its first miniseries, it’s time to emphasize one final time that you should be reading this comic. It’s a good one!
