14 on Upcoming Comics: May 2, 2018As much as I want to say I’m focused on Wednesday’s comic releases… I can’t. I’m still wrapped up in Avengers: Infinity War! The intensity and experience of that movie is still with me, and I saw it Friday. To quote today’s kids, “I am shooketh.” It was a fun experience with great action and…
Viktor Bogdanovic joins The Silencer with this issue, and man does his work look good! Last month, I went on a bit of a rant about how DC is handling their New Age of Heroes imprint, and I think some readers misinterpreted that I was unhappy with The Silencer itself. Let me clarify, that’s not…
I don’t know about you, but I’m still on a high from Action Comics #1,000, and I’m also growing more excited for the creative changes that are on the horizon! DC released their solicitations for July last week, but there wasn’t really anything noteworthy that hadn’t already been announced independently. I still have suspicions that…
It’s Damian versus Roy Harper in this week’s Nightwing! Ok… Not really, but it might as well be because the banter between these two is a ton of fun! This is the second “filler” issue for Nightwing before Ben Percy begins his run in May. Typically, I’m not the biggest fan of filler issues. I…
This is first and foremost a Batman site… But let’s be honest, we all know that this week is really about Action Comics reaching its milestone, issue #1000! I mean, think about that! What an incredible feat! So, in addition to our usual coverage (and there are some great releases hitting shelves this week), we’re…
I have a lot to discuss here, and I have mixed emotions about many elements within this story… So, let’s just jump into it! Fair warning though, there are spoilers aplenty after the credits page! This issue picks up two hours after the events of the previous chapter. If you remember, Batman and Red Robin…
One of our favorite creators, Jimmy Palmiotti, has thrown down a challenge (more like a request, but “challenge” sounds more exciting)! He recently went to Twitter to ask people in the entertainment industry – especially those who have enjoyed success from comic book adaptations – the following: Hey CELEBRITIES- Producers- behind the scenes FILM AND…
Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing attempt to do a lot of things in this one-and-done issue of Nightwing… And they fall short with every single attempt. If I were to speak generally, I would say that this is a story of Nightwing fighting his way through an ancient branch of the Yakuza to save Robin.…
Happy Easter! I hope you are all having a wonderful Sunday! I’m sure many of you are eating lunch with family, watching your kiddos hunt for Easter eggs, or perhaps the kid in you is having an adult Easter egg hunt (where you hide money or scratch-off lottery tickets inside eggs instead of candy). Whatever…
James Tynion has a tendency to overwrite, filling his pages with an abundance of exposition and fluff… This isn’t one of those instances. First off, I have to give Tynion credit for winning my attention immediately on the first page. I opened the book and felt like I had been sucked into a time-warp that…
If you’re worried about what Facebook is doing with your information, then stay the hell away from Nevrland! Ben Percy’s run on Teen Titans will wrap in the near future, and while I’ve found his take on the group enjoyable, I never felt that the title had much purpose or direction (granted, the overabundance of…
If you were as amped and excited as I was going into this issue, then you’re probably feeling my same disappointment if you read this chapter… Cause it’s a major speedbump for The Silencer. I’m not sure what’s going on at DC at the moment, but they can’t seem to keep a good thing going!…
Thank God for Doomsday Clock, The Silencer, and maybe Metal, because if it weren’t for these titles, I’d be looking at this week’s releases thinking, “Is it June yet?” Alright, on to business! For an overview of our coverage for last week’s releases, check out This Week In Comics: The Justice League Visit “Wakanda”. This…
This week, Nightwing faces his final judgment! I had a good feeling about this book before I read it because Jay sent me a picture of a panel with the text “#SickNasty!” What is the panel that’s deserving of such eloquent praise? Why, this one, of course! I, too, find this panel to be #SickNasty, so…
I have a confession to make… I still need to read last week’s comics. I know, I’m a terrible bat-fan, but I’ve spent the past week reading through non-DC/ Bat titles because my stacks (yes, plural) were getting outrageously high! Thankfully, I whittled it down a little and am ready to return to the world…
I feel like I’m in a pseudo slog with comics from DC at the moment. I’m speaking generally when I say this, but I’m not overly excited about much that’s out right now. That’s not to say I’m not excited for what’s coming in a few months, just that right now so many titles appear…
Two books that I cover are ending this week. For one of them, The Shadow/ Batman, I’m quite sad it is coming to a close. Then there’s Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica. I don’t want to say that reviewing this book has felt like a chore, but I haven’t enjoyed reading it, much…
All good things must come to an end, and so is the case with The Shadow/ Batman. Of the many titles I’ve reviewed for Batman-News.com over the past few years, this is easily one of my favorites! I’m sad to see this book go – and hope that its absence is only temporary – but…
This chapter of Nightwing has a variety of surprises including, but not limited to, motorcycles, a squid, and purple, teddy bear backpacks… Unfortunately, this is another issue without Guppy… The last time we were in Bludhaven, Nightwing was on an all-out mission to stop the Judge, and managed to come face-to-face with the foe. The…
How is it already March? When I was a kid, I’d always hear adults talk about how time goes by faster as you get older, and I always thought they were crazy! No, seriously, I thought there was something wrong with them… and then I became an adult. I started a career. Got hitched (well,…
