24 on Upcoming Comics: August 25, 2020What a weekend!!! Am I right? DC FanDome was Saturday, and where I had reservations that this would be a dud like ComicCon@Home, Jim Lee and team made sure that if you were going to give them your time, they were going to deliver you some goods! There was so much news! The Batman! THE…
The third chapter of “Joker War” hit shelves today, and I’ve decided that this is nothing more than a directionless story where Batman flops around the city before passing out and waking up with Harley. Maybe the universe is trying to tell you something, Bats! *Nudge, nudge* I hear she’s single… *Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.*…
DC’s FanDome is this Saturday! Are you ready for it? Have you planned your schedule? There’s definitely more promise here for announcements, reveals, and trailers than what we got at Comic-Con at Home, so I’m pretty excited! Let us know what you’re excited for in the comments section! I’ll be tuning in this Saturday as…
Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch continue their excellent, slow burn with The Batman’s Grave #9. Considering we’re getting close to the book wrapping up, I’m sure that some readers will be disappointed in the lack of plot progression, but there is a shift in the narrative, even if it is slight, that changes the stakes…
If I could have things my way, Batman & the Outsiders would not be ending because it’s too damn good. I mean, if this is Hill’s decision to move on or take a break (I’m praying it’s just a break), then I respect that… But seriously, when I talk about quality and execution in comics,…
DC FanDome has been dropping some trailers and announcements, and I’m not going to lie… I’m pretty damn excited! It appears as though a lot of the hype and lore that was missing from Comic-Con@Home will be found here (at least for Warner Bros/ DC), and that’s a good thing. I feel like we could…
Well… Batman #96 starts off bad and only gets worse as it goes… That’s not promising for the remaining issues. The Story I feel like I need to start this review by saying, “I love comics.” No, this isn’t Comics Now, but, at this point, I’m finding that most of my opinions on today’s work…
I’m going to keep this short and sweet since I’m behind this week. I had to take a some personal time after having to put my dog down over the weekend. He was old, 15, and I know how lucky I am to have gotten the many years with him that I did, but it’s…
Suicide Squad is the best in-continuity book being published by DC Comics at the moment! That’s all you really need to know, but if you want me to lavish praise on the book and creative team, then just keep reading! The Story Tom Taylor has been doing excellent work on Suicide Squad. When I say…
Did anyone tune in to any of the SDCC at Home panels over the weekend? I did! While there were many aspects that I missed about SDCC – God, help me, I actually missed the mobs of people – I felt that SDCC at Home was a nice attempt to help hold us over until…
After what felt like months of build-up, we finally have “The Joker War” at our fingertips! I’ve been highly critical of Tynion’s run on Batman so far, so will this event do anything to change that trend? Find out below! The Story The Joker has set his master plan in motion! With the help of…
October solicitations dropped last week, and there are some interesting reveals… A number of books appear to be heading in an interesting direction, and I’m especially curious to see what they do with Grifter in Batman. I can’t say that I like that new costume design they featured for Batman though. It… is awful. DC…
What a week! After a dry spell of actual news, we finally got a few announcements this week! Matt Reeves will head a Gotham PD series on HBOMax! I can’t stress how excited this makes me, and I’m crossing my fingers that he pulls from Gotham Central. If you’ve read that book, then you know…
Well, thank God for Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch for delivering a well-thought, meticulously planned Batman story that has actual stakes and consequences, and focuses on telling a good story rather than relying on shock value and gimmicks. The Story The Batman’s Grave has definitely been a slow burn, and there have been moments where…
We’ve got another issue of Batman & the Outsiders, and I can’t help but feel that Bryan Hill and Dexter Soy are still spinning their wheels a little bit… The Story You all know that I’ve been a champion for Batman & the Outsiders, and that’s not changing. However, between last month’s issue, and this…
If James Tynion wanted people to take his run seriously, then this is definitely not the way to do it… I mean, I lost count of how many times I rolled my eyes while reading this... The Story I’m going to try my best to not sound like a broken record, but it’s going to…
I hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July! I know this year's festivities probably weren't what many of you were hoping for, but holidays - or moments and memories in general - are honestly what you make of them. So, hopefully it was one for the books! Alright, on to business. This…
Well, this is going to be short and sweet! DC doesn’t have any new, physical comics hitting shelves this week other than a few graphic novels. As bummed as that might make some of you, keep in mind that there is a logistical reason for this since DC will no longer use Diamond as their…
Harley Quinn & the Birds of Prey #2 dropped, and just like the film, it’s a whole lot of Harley Quinn and very little Birds of Prey. But unlike the film, this book doesn’t try to hide that reality, and instead fully embraces it! Is this the right book for you though? That’s the real…
This month, the Suicide Squad heads to Gotham City as they continue to flee Ted Kord and a horde of assassins and mercenaries. And when you enter the city of the Dark Knight, you’re bound to run into him… So, how interesting is it that this – of all the issues to date – is…
