A lot of the dialogue is weak to boot.Leonard Kirk lends his talent to this issue, and that is a boon He portrays the section inside Sapphire Styx’s psychic repository It looks good and recalls many of Betsy’s costumes over the years Thony Silas’s artwork is solid and functional I’m not a big fan of[...]
This is not an Annual that overstays its welcome.[caption id="attachment_891487" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Darth Vader Annual #2 art by Leonard Kirk, Walden Wong, Scott Hanna, and Nolan Woodard[/caption]Leonard Kirk is the artist on this comic, and he brings a sleekness and expression to the comic that does the story justice There are moments where Vader looks[...]
And they're pulling out all the stops.Gail Simone, Fabian Nicieza, Dennis Hopeless, and Leah Williams are all writing for the series, along with artists Victor Ibanez, Juan Gedeon, Natacha Bustos, Leonard Kirk, and More (who we presume to be a Franco-Belgian comic artist -- it's pronounced More-ay) As if that weren't enough star power, the[...]
The ending scene with T'Challa and Storm is especially enjoyable, and Leonard Kirk's art is quite solid.[caption id="attachment_830467" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Black Hammer: Age of Doom #1 cover by Dean Ormston[/caption]Loss: Black Hammer: Age of Doom #1 Doesn't ImpressI've become fond of Jeff Lemire's Dark Horse-based Black Hammer line of comics in the past year, but Age of Doom #1 was not among its[...]
This issue had a single direction and a single goal, and it succeeded for it.[caption id="attachment_833733" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Black Panther #172 art by Leonard Kirk, Marc Deering, Walden Wong, and Laura Martin[/caption]Leonard Kirk brings things to a similarly satisfying conclusion in the visual department There is a flowing and energetic quality to his detailed and[...]
Plus, we still have one more issue before it truly finishes.[caption id="attachment_819992" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Black Panther #171 art by Leonard Kirk and Laura Martin[/caption]Leonard Kirk’s artwork brings all of this to life in a solidly detailed yet still fairly cartoonish fashion The characters look great, and the action sequences are handled well, even if they[...]
Plus, the Originators are finally making their return. Ta-Nehisi Coates is nearing the end of this Black Panther run, so the story should start be really exciting. Leonard Kirk is delivering the art on this one, so it will definitely look good.[caption id="attachment_817590" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Daredevil #600 cover by Dan Mora[/caption]Daredevil #600The climax to 'Mayor Fisk' arrives with the highly anticipated[...]
Again, this issue was far from bad on its own; it's just not the kind of installment this book needed right now. Leonard Kirk and Laura Martin delivered solid work as always, at least.Win: Detective Comics and the Trial of Batwoman, but Also Batman[caption id="attachment_804168" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Detective Comics #975 cover by Alvaro Martinez, Raul Fernandez, and Brad Anderson[/caption]In[...]
However, this story’s crumbling beneath its own weight unabashedly continues in this issue.[caption id="attachment_803233" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Black Panther #170 art by Leonard Kirk and Laura Martin[/caption]Leonard Kirk provides the art to this issue, and he can do some damn good work in an action scene Unfortunately, the ones presented here are large and chaotic[...]
[rwp-review-recap id="0"]We arrive at the conclusion of Bleeding Cool’s Five Days of Black Panther with the current Black Panther series by writer Ta-Nehisi Coates and artists such as Chris Sprouse, Brian Stelfreeze, and Leonard Kirk.This was my first Black Panther solo series, as I was turned onto the character primarily by Al Ewing’s Ultimates[...]
It focuses on Aneka’s escape attempt and is very action-oriented.It does feel dangerously close to another stopgap that is further padding out “Avengers of the New World.” However, there are details in the margins and brought to centerstage in the ending that show we may be close to concluding this story at last.As I’ve said[...]
Black Panther and Shuri are ever-engaging protagonists, and the read has me absorbed almost entirely throughout.The comic doesn’t advance the Klaw or Originators plot that much, but it manages to keep things interesting through character interaction and additional backstory.Leonard Kirk’s artwork is a good addition to the series He did exemplary work on All-New Wolverine,[...]

There is no Black Panther, Shuri, or Dora Milaje in this comic.However, it’s such an enthralling characterization of the Klaw and his psyche that I didn’t mind waiting another issue to see the current arc advanced further.We also get to see the brutality of this “new” Klaw, brought to life by the artwork of Leonard[...]
And I dig it.Leonard Kirk’s work here is absolutely stellar With an expressive style and fluid motion, he brings the Wolverine to life Sometimes details do get lost a little too quickly in the background, but, overall, Kirk’s art is nothing but a boon for the comic.Garland and Arciniega give some fantastic color contrast to[...]
That seems a bit douchey to say, given that Wolverine just watched her sister turn into a giant horrific bug monster.Leonard Kirk’s artwork is still very good, as he has become quite adept at drawing Laura Kinney and her adventures Characters are very expressive, the figures look great, and the Brood are aptly vicious in[...]
Marvel has revealed the details for Black Panther in Marvel Legacy, from Ta-Nehisi Coates, Leonard Kirk, and Brian Stelfreeze.Marvel has been slowly doling out EXCLUSIVE reveals for its Marvel Legacy titles to all of its compliant media partner websites The latest is Black Panther, revealed in an interview on Entertainment Weekly with the creative team[...]
While that does allow for a lot of plot to transpire, it also results in a comic that can’t stay in one place too long.Leonard Kirk’s art has been fairly good throughout this series, and this issue is no exception He’s good at depicting expressions, but his figures tend to be a bit scrawny and[...]
The other artists Ibraim Roberson, Leonard Kirk and Guillermo Ortego all bring great work too, with colours from Morry Hollowell, Frank D'Armata and Michael Garland that add depth to the proceedings, and also seem a little brighter than usual, perhaps? If so, this helps add to the sense of hope that the book does indeed[...]
