You can't buy Red Hood, but you can buy plenty of other DC comics by others accused of worse - COMICSXF The problem with writing about the cancellation of DC’s Red Hood is it’s impossible to write about in a vacuum.

A heartbreaking new take on the zombie story in Image's Everything Dead & Dying #1 - COMICSXF Jack is the sole survivor of the zombie apocalypse in his rural town, but rather than eliminate them, he chose to live alongside them.

Helluva week of comics coming up

Yes I like the Inhumans, sue me. My review of Imperial #3 ⬇️

Imperial #3 review. The first 25 pages or so were a real slog, but the reveal at the end got me hyped, I’m not gonna lie.

Marvel's Imperial #3 gives the game away, then begins playing a new one altogether - COMICSXF Find out who's really orchestrating the game of cosmic houses as the last chance to stop a universal war presents itself in Imperial #3.

@stealthisplanet.bsky.social talks about the games within games and the reveal at the end of Marvel's Imperial #3:

EDITORIAL: Transphobic Bloodshot panels are what we get when we put IP over story, creators - COMICSXF The transphobic content in the most recent issue of Bloodshot is a symptom of the fall of Valiant since DMG bought it in 2018.

7 years ago, a global media firm purchased Valiant comics.
Last week, a new Bloodshot #1 was released with transphobic content, which the writer and publisher blamed on a translation issue.
A CXF editorial looks at how we got from there to here.

Image have promoted the Anzuelo TPB on insta but not here so I’ll step in on their behalf for the BS crew. Anzuelo is astonishingly beautiful and is legitimately one of my favourite comics ever - and I don’t say that lightly.

A pleasure to review my favourite comic of 2025 so far, and one that’s representative of this nightmare reality that we’re living in. Review over @comicsxf.com

Jake ain’t lying. No book has made me say “Damn” upon putting it down more than this one has. Career-making stuff from Camp, Zawadzki, Bellaire and Otsmane-Elhaou.

A piece on why @denizcamp.bsky.social and @ericxyz.bsky.social have made the comic of 2025. Nothing captures the dissonance of reality post-2016 quite like this masterpiece.

@stealthisplanet.bsky.social writes about why Assorted Crisis Events isn't just the book of the year, but the book about the year:

Yeah, he’s gone Summer blockbuster route, which I don’t blame him for at all. I’m sure there’s another twist to come, there almost always is with him. Really excited for the Planet She-Hulk tie-in in particular.

No doubting the quality of Imperial, but it’s extremely inside Hickman’s comfort zone. Still two issues to go wild.

Marvel's Imperial #2 reminds us of a certain kind of Invasion - COMICSXF Nova and Star-Lord race to discover who is behind all these evil acts — a journey that takes them to the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda.

There's a Secret Invasion goin' on in Imperial #2. @stealthisplanet.bsky.social and @brawl2099.bsky.social report:

Few things more fun to participate in than a CXF jam review, even if the comic doesn’t hold up its end of the bargain

12 new X-Men series we want to see announced after the Hellfire Vigil This week sees the release of X-Men: The Hellfire Vigil, an all-hands-on-deck jam that sees the various factions of the mutant diaspora reunite to remember the island they all used to live on. Given the number of From the Ashes titles we’ve seen ended in the runup to the Vigil (NYX, X-Force, X-Factor) and the number of minis that have long since wrapped (

What new X-Men comics would YOU like to see announced after the Hellfire Vigil?

Cut from the pack: my personal wish for a Pete Wisdom-Faiza Hussain-STRIKE series. I just want my British kids back.

I scribbled my pitches on a napkin so you know they're good

With new X-Titles on the Horizon, the CXF team has a dozen pitches for Marvel to consider.
