Street Sharks #2 Review

 



Writer: Stephanie Williams

Artist: Ariel Medel

Colorist: Valentina Pinto

Letterer: Jeff Eckleberry

Cover Artists: Phil Murphy, Mateus Santolouco & Elizabeth Beals

Designer: Sandy Tanaka

Editor: Nicolas Niño

Publisher: IDW

Price: $4.99

Release Date: November 12, 2025

 

Big Slammu, Ripster, Streex, and Jab want to keep Fission City safe. Amid their skirmishes with the Seaviates, the scientist who turned the athletes into sharks works toward his goal of transforming everyone into sea creatures. Will Dr Paradigm realize his vision of helping his entire city evolve? Or will the Street Sharks shut down his gene-slamming operation? Let’s grab a burger with extra metal shavings, dive into Street Sharks #2, and see!

 

Story

Reporter Danielle Lafond weighs the Street Sharks’ crimefighting exploits against the property damage that endangers Fission City’s inhabitants. Today, she broadcasts from Seashell Park, where the Magnificent Marvels Circus promises to deliver the show of the century. Despite appearing overnight, the city says it's legit. Danielle hopes it will lift people's spirits after all the destruction the Street Sharks have caused.

 

Street Sharks #2 follows the team’s investigation into the mysterious circus. Jab, Streex, Ripster, and Slammu discover the circus's origins and assess the dangers of opening night. Back at their headquarters beneath the university ice rink, Lena Mack, their person in a chair, formulates a plan. Tech wiz Bends builds gear to assist them. With their Human university students advising them from HQ, the sharks attend the show, hoping to foil the nefarious plan endangering the attendees.

 

Stephanie Williams fills her story with engaging characters and high-flying action. All this takes place within Dr Luthor Paradigm's ongoing plan to upgrade Humanity. In his zeal to improve the species, he preys on desperate people. The scientist promises to make everyone better. Even though they frustrate his plans, Dr Paradigm calls Jab, Streex, Ripster, and Slammu rejects. But then, they don't follow his orders like Slobster, Slash, and Killamari.

 

Art

Ariel Medel imbues Street Sharks #2 with a cartoony vibe. Big Slammu is a brown-and-beige bodybuilder. Ripster is smaller and dark blue. Pink stripes help Streex’s light blue skin shine. Jab is a beige-and-brown Hammerhead. Their underground lair includes a motorcycle and a pool table. They watch Danielle's reports on a tube TV, while the university students work at computers from a similar era. Danielle’s concerns are well-founded as she reports in her maroon suit outside the beige-and-maroon big top. But despite a father’s concern at a poster filled with fish people, the mother smiles at her son’s delight.

 

Valentina Pinto paints Street Sharks #2 with a loaded palette. Backgrounds shine, and highlights and shadows are beautifully colored. The street sharks swim beneath the street, their fins cracking and tearing the brown-and-gray asphalt until they stand and resume walking. An orange clownfish performs acrobatics while red lobsters juggle torches. As Marina flies overhead in her green suit before the glowing gold background, a walrus addresses the crowd in his maroon coat, white slacks, and black top hat.

 

Jeff Eckleberry fills white dialogue balloons with large, black uppercase letters. Yellow narrative boxes denote time and space and introduce characters. The letters grow bold for intonation as the sharks investigate and attend the opening evening in disguise. Sound effects enhance a little brotherly competition, and the sharks trying to avert a tragedy. Thanks to IDW for providing a review copy.

 

Final Thoughts

Big Slammu, Ripster, Streex, and Jab may have to live beneath the city. Yet they do themselves credit when they emerge from the ground to protect people's right to choose how they live. When you thought it was safe to go back to the circus, Street Sharks #2 reminds you that whatever your situation, use it to help others be Finomenally Fintastic.

Gehenna: Naked Aggression TP Vol 1 Review

 


Creators: Patrick Kindlon & Marco Ferrari

Writer: Patrick Kindlon

Artist: Maurizio Rosenzweig

Colorist: Matteo Vattani

Letterer: Jim Campbell

Designer: Matt Battaglia

Cover Artist: Maurizio Rosenzweig

Publisher: Image Comics

Price: $16.99

Release Date: November 12, 2025

 

Once, she embraced life. Gehenna enjoyed love, belonged to someone, and looked forward to the future. Now, she dispenses judgment. What sent Gehenna on the road to death and destruction? And what is she fighting for? Let's grab our guns, leap into Gehenna: Naked Aggression TP Vol 1, and find out!

 

Story

Gehenna intended to kill a mob boss. Instead, she fights for her life. Gehenna scrambles with killers in the street, fighting hand-to-hand and shooting the gangsters trying to kill her. Looking for a way out, she grabs her target's son and heads inside. Gehenna needs help. Stephen doesn't seem surprised to get pulled into the eye of the storm. He has but one question. Why?

 

Patrick Kindlon divides each of the four issues into three chapters, leaving no time for the plot to slow down. When Gehenna shrugs off one opponent, another takes their place. Gehenna narrates most of the acts, while the rest follow her pursuers. Patrick Kindlon’s story is about a plan gone wrong. But it’s also about a life gone wrong. In Gehenna: Naked Aggression TP Vol 1, life is a machine that grinds the little people down, and Gehenna got stuck in the gears.

 

As in Mario Puzo’s famous novel, not all the people working for criminal families are bad. Or perhaps there are levels of evil. Some, like Kamiisa and Linira, treat people like assets and debts. Others, like Isa, are more discerning in who has a right to live. Gehenna plays by rules she won't readily break. Those include not killing children and superheroes.

 

Perhaps that's why young Stephen sticks by her side throughout Gehenna: Naked Aggression TP Vol 1. While she trades in violence like his father, Gehenna's life has a purpose. Gehenna may be bent on killing those she views as evildoers. But unlike his father and those who prop up his criminal empire, Gehenna believes in right and wrong. 

 

Art

Maurizio Rosenzweig introduces each act with two widescreen scenes on double-page spreads separated by a title. Clad in leather, a utility belt, arm wrappings, and boots, Gehenna charges through panels. Muscles and hair are clearly defined, thanks to detailed penciling. Tiny dust clouds indicate rapid movement, while close-ups of weapons and gunfire enhance this die-hard thriller.

 

As Gehenna barrels through the chaos in white and black, Matteo Vattani enlivens scenes with a loaded palette. Isa tracks Gehenna's flight on foot, wearing black and blue. When Gehenna and Stephen take to the road, Isa leaps onto a pink scooter. Her rival, sword-wielding Linira, snears at the "old timer" from her black limousine. Redhaired Kamiisa is all business in her three-piece orange suit. Yellow and orange explosions and red liquid flowing across a blue-gray tile floor reinforce the mob boss’s ruthlessness in Gehenna: Naked Aggression TP Vol 1.  

 

Black uppercase letters in white narrative boxes reveal the narrators' thoughts and off-camera conversations. Like the life Gehenna and her opponents lead, Jim Campbell places dialogue in jagged balloons with razor-sharp edges. White and colored sound effects enhance the action as Gehenna bulldozes through gangsters and superheroes. But then, no one said that erasing her debt to underworld society would be easy. Thanks to Image Comics for providing a review copy.

 

Final Thoughts

Gehenna tried to follow the rules. But when the other players ignored them, she dedicated her life to hurting the people who ruined hers. As Gehenna fights for what is right, the past intrudes on the present, reminding her of what she has lost.

 

Gehenna Naked Aggression TP Vol 1 is an over-the-top revenge tale, filled with whimsical echoes of her past, and lightened by would-be heroes, exotic animals, and salutes to pop culture. An extensive cover gallery concludes this fast-paced tale guaranteed to leave readers panting as they await Gehenna's next adventure.

 

Rating 9.8/10
