10 on Cover Talk: Variant Cover Poll (August - November)Here they are folks! The final covers before we vote to decide the Best Cover of 2017! Below you'll find the variant covers for August through November of 2017. The window to vote on these covers is extremely short, so don't waste any time. The winning cover of each poll will advance to the final…
This week, I’m honoring Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti! Why? Well, they don’t need a specific reason because they’re both incredible people, but this week is their final issue of Harley Quinn. It feels strange, and I’ll admit I’m a little sad. I’ve grown to associate Conner and Palmiotti to Harley as much as I…
We're racing to discover the Best Cover of 2017 as voted by you! You’ve been voting on your favorite covers throughout the year, and now we’re bringing those winners together into various polls to decide which comics will compete in our Best Cover of 2017 post at the end of the year. I guess you can…
In this month’s chapter of The Shadow/ Batman, things get explosive, but even that can’t prevent the plot from stalling a little. I’ve been pretty vocal concerning my admiration for this book! Steve Orlando has crafted an incredible story that is written well, and the art by Timpano is also quite spectacular. That being said,…
The girls fully embrace their situation in this chapter of Harley & Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica, but two and a half issues into this trope, things are starting to get tired... This issue took a turn for the worst for me. There are many aspects of Harley & Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica that…
Need a friend? Just call the judge. He’s great at making friends… I’m going to be honest… I’m absolutely loving this run of Nightwing. I know we’re only two issues in, but Sam Humphries approach to storytelling and characterization are right up my alley! He’s taking his time with the narrative, his characters are as…
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a fun and safe celebration to bring in 2018! With the new year, we have more announcements pertaining to our review team… Unfortunately, Travis unexpectedly had to step down, so we have to say goodbye to him. We’re happy to have had him on the team…
We've got A LOT of covers for you to vote on, so I won't take up much of your time! Below you’ll find the cover of each title released for December weeks two, three, and four, followed by the week’s variant covers. After those covers, you’ll find the standard covers for the month of September,…
Rob Williams wraps up “The Secret History of Task Force X” in this week’s chapter of Suicide Squad, and while I consider this issue to be a high-point for the arc, it’s still, unfortunately, quite mediocre overall. I feel as though Rob Williams has lost his way. I’m not certain what’s to blame – perhaps…
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m in a Christmas coma… Between the food (especially the pies), the shopping, the gifts, family time, and the sheer joy of the holidays… I’m tapping out. All I want to do is lay in bed and watch Netflix/ read. I got the new Grayson: Super Spy Omnibus…
Bludhaven… See it at night and it shines… Sam Humphries and Bernard Chang debut their run on Nightwing, and I’m quite impressed with the product. This isn’t an explosive issue though, so if you’re expecting the story to move from zero to sixty, you might be disappointed. While I find the plot intriguing, there isn’t…
So… Christmas is in less than a week… And I still have some shopping to do. Oh boy… I'm certain a number of you are right there with me! In some positive news, Comixology is having a HUGE holiday sale right now! If you’re looking to catch-up on a series, or perhaps you want to…
This week in Batgirl & the Birds of Prey, we learn that Gotham has TERRIBLE doctors! (No wonder our heroes tend to patch themselves up…) It’s no secret that I’m not a fan of this book. The Benson’s are lovely people, but their craft is dismal. I haven’t liked a single arc yet, and if…
Oh crap… It’s the “Hero Harley Show” this week in Suicide Squad… Also, the last issue featured the Red Wave monster going after Karin Grace to regain half of its heart. This issue features the exact same thing, and not much else. “The Secret History of Task Force X” has been a mixed bag for…
Steve Orlando wraps up “Surgical Strike” this week, and he does so by delivering the best issue of the series! Justice League of America has had its fair share of problems since its debut. I think we can all agree on that. Over the past year, the storylines and characters just haven’t come together in…
I’m sure a majority of you are scrambling to finish your holiday shopping, but make sure you set aside enough cash to pick-up each week’s comics! Comic books are a balanced part of your daily nutrition for the soul, after all. You should probably buy comics for other people as well… You can never have…
For the next few weeks, we’re going to be playing catch-up while voting on current covers! So get your voting fingers ready, because they’re going to be put to work during the month of December! Below you’ll find the cover of each title released last week, followed by the week’s variant covers. Following those covers,…
Have I told you how much I love this book? Well, let me tell you… I love The Shadow/ Batman! I love everything about this book, and I’m bummed that it’s just a mini-series. The Shadow/ Batman is a sequel to Batman/ The Shadow. I love also loved Batman/ The Shadow, but I feel that…
This week, Harley and Ivy Meet Betty & Veronica experience a Freaky Friday-type event! Gotham and Riverdale come crashing together in this crossover that has the sirens and vixens crossing paths. No, there isn’t any plausible reason why this crossover should work, and yet, somehow, it does. The biggest question I had coming into this…
It’s official… We have new team members! It’s my pleasure to introduce the newest additions to the Batman-News Comic Review team: Casper and Travis! Casper Rudolph (@CasperRudolph) Hi there! I’m Casper Rudolph (some of you may have seen me posting here as “A comic fan”), and I hail all the way from Holland. I’m a…
