16 on Nightwing #36 reviewNeed 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…
Every now and then I feel like this world of Injustice is played out: the dynamics are on a rinse and repeat cycle that just feels trodden and sodden at this stage in the game and pitting some of these heroes and villains against one another is as formulaic and redundant as it must feel…
So yeah, I totally thought this was supposed to be the final chapter of "Super Sons of Tomorrow," and read it accordingly. On the one hand, I'm glad that it isn't the end, because the way things wrap up here would be a pretty unsatisfying conclusion. On the other hand, this crossover hasn't been stellar,…
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,…
Midnight approaches. The Doomsday Clock ticks on. What fate and doom will befall our heroes when the clock strikes twelve? Can even a Superman prevail over the nigh-omnipotent power of a being like Doctor Manhattan? That, I suppose, is the question Doomsday Clock is set to answer. Will the cynicism of a world like that…
Playboy. Man of industry. Philanthropist. As Bruce Wainwright has grown closer to manhood, he appears to have moved past his parents' murder and built a life for himself. But the dark secret of his mysterious champion has endured, and threatens to crack the facade covering Bruce's grief. SPOILERS AHEAD Boy Wonder Creature of the Night #2…
I love saccharin Christmas comic book stories--you know, those one-and-done tales of peace on earth and good will featuring superheroes doing good deeds for the less-fortunate, helping to restore a sense of hope in a dark world? Unfortunately, while this issue of Batgirl technically should qualify under those parameters, you’ll have to look elsewhere for…
This is chapter 3 of Fall of the Batmen, the current arc running through Detective Comics. In previous chapters we saw Gotham’s mayor interfering with Batman’s business, with the intent of shutting down his team. Additionally, the Victim Syndicate is back as the opposing force, and Stephanie has rejoined the Gotham Knights. In this week’s…
The Royal Flush Gang has Terry cornered, and they aren’t his only problem. Lurking in the shadows is not one, but two mysterious people with plans for Terry. Can he get to the bottom of the mysteries and still escape the Royal Flush Gang? Find out in Batman Beyond #15. The last issue left us…
The Ray quits the Justice League of America! ...kind of. Really, he's doing some soul searching and trying to figure out his place in the world, but in doing so he is separated from the League so I'll give it a pass. From the beginning, Steve Orlando's Justice League of America has touched on some…
What a wild ride this series has been. The quality swings so wildly from issue to issue that I don't know what I'll think of the whole thing until it's all over. That's true of most series, sure, but my appreciation for Nightwing: The New Order has shifted chapter by chapter. It's kind of the…
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…
There's no one more metal than Hawkman. And there is perhaps no one more integral to Dark Knights: Metal than Carter Hall. But where has he been all this time? Answers await in Hawkman: Found #1. I don’t always enjoy Metal, but when I do, I choose Nth Metal Metal has been a mixed bag for me.…
Here’s the third chapter of Super Sons of Tomorrow, a 5-part crossover running through Superman, Super Sons, and Teen Titans. This arc once again sees the return of Tim Drake of Tomorrow to the present day DC Universe, and he’s come to execute a plan similar to what he attempted during A Lonely Place of…
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…
For decades, there were two primary Batman titles: Detective Comics and Batman. Sure, Bats and his extended family would show up in a variety of titles, such as World's Finest, Justice League of America, and the like, and there were even Batman-branded titles like Batman and the Outsiders, Batman Family, and The Brave and the…
Two weeks ago we had a strong epilogue to the most recent storyline and now we get “The Mourning After”, which unfortunately feels like an epilogue to the epilogue. It’s pretty common that following a big story we need a bridge to get us going into the next thing and Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner…
Scott Snyder (Script) Greg Capullo (Pencils) Jonathan Glapion (Inks) FCO Plascencia (Colors) In this month’s Metal the heroes have split up in smaller teams, all with a mission of their own. While the multiple story arcs are fun to read in their own right, the pacing is so relentlessly fast that it can be hard…
It’s a race to free Wonder Woman! As Kara, Antiope, and Phillipus lead a band of sisters to aid Diana, they face stiff opposition. Elsewhere, Barry rights two wrongs—even at the risk of violating Batman's rules. One story ends, and another plays out in its entirety, in Injustice 2 #16. Paradise Lost, Pt. 3 This…
