6 on Upcoming Comics: October 12, 2016Well LA, this is a wrap! My entire apartment is packed in boxes, and movers come tomorrow morning! After that, I’ll have a long drive ahead of me! Once I get settled, I’ll go back to being more social on here and on twitter. I’m also behind in posting the September Variant Cover Poll and…
I spoke with writer Benjamin Percy at New York Comic Con today, and he revealed that artist Khoi Pham—best known for his work at Marvel—will be taking over art duties on Teen Titans from Jonboy Meyers beginning with December's Teen Titans #3. "[Khoi] really seems to be harkening back to the Mike McKone and Tony…
What's the worst that could happen if Red Hood and Arsenal took their heroing skills and used them to pay the bills? What's the worst that could happen if DC published a book that attempts to answer that question? What's the worst that could happen if I wrote a review that answers the first two…
Holy monumental meet-up, Batman! Details are scarce at this time, but DC is reporting that the Caped Crusader and Amazing Amazon will team-up in an upcoming miniseries. Following the previous partnerships with the Green Hornet, the men from U.N.C.L.E., and Steed and Peel, Batman '66 Meets Wonder Woman will feature the first time the Dynamic Duo team…
Every few months, I stumble upon a book that I didn't see coming, and then find myself blown away at both its elusiveness and its splendor. So it is with Green Valley, Max Landis's brand new tale of brotherhood, commitment, and courage in the face of staggering loss, which I only heard about for the…
News and announcements from New York Comic Con are coming out in full force today. In addition to Batwoman headlining her own series once more, DC has revealed plans for their all-ages DC Super Hero Girls line. First up is the new digital-first series Past Times at Super Hero High, the first issue of which…
Few characters have benefitted from Rebirth as much as Kate Kane. Once the star of her own acclaimed series, she had been relegated to occasional cameos and supporting roles in the past year. Thanks to DC's line-wide soft reboot, though, Batwoman has found new life as the more than capable lead of Detective Comics. Today, The…
The chief of police has a problem with some weirdo hellraisers with a Renaissance Faire kink running around on horses and dressed as medieval knights, harassing the public as vandals, thieves, and murderers. The worst part of the problem is that the ringleader of these knights of the wrong table is (naturally) the spoiled son…
This week’s issue of Injustice may feel a little disorienting at first, but don’t forget that the ruling premise from the start for this series has always been that inter-dimensional travel plays a part in heroes coming to the aid of a reality in which Superman has lost his ever-lovin’ marbles after the death of…
It's definitely a bad sign when I'm headed into a Wednesday, a day that should make any comic fan as jubilant as a pig in its own filth, but instead I'm morose because I know I'm going to have to review another chapter of Monster Men.... Batman #8 and Nightwing #6 both came out today,…
Join the Titans as they embark on their most ambitious, dangerous mission yet: a two-part adventure! When Hollywood executives come calling, claiming to want to create a television show based on the team, imaginations begin to run wild. Will it be a nature documentary, complete with random shark attacks? Or maybe an action-packed Saturday morning…
The Justice League is gripped with fear! With something terrifying closing in, our heroes band together to stand against the threat. But what looks like victory may not be so simple... It starts out okay... After repelling some oily, black, tubes of terror, the League members go their separate ways. Jessica and Barry plan to…
NOTE: As before, go ahead and read Batman #8 before proceeding. The events of that issue lead directly into this one. The long night of the monster men approaches the dawn in Nightwing #6, the penultimate chapter in the Batfamily crossover. Up to this point, the story has left me cold. There's great talent involved,…
How do you build anticipation for a long-awaited new series? Why, you release another new series starring one of your most popular characters. That's just what DC Comics has done with their Injustice property: leading to the release of the video game sequel and its highly anticipated tie-in comic, Harley Quinn will star in her own spinoff…
I know I say this each year… But how in the hell are we already in October? This year has FLOWN by! This past month, in particular, has been incredibly fast for me since I’m preparing to move. I’m trying to balance work, planning/ organizing, packing, and life in general. On top of that, my…
After months of speculation, it has finally been announced that Ivan Reis will be the artist on duty for the highly anticipated Justice League of America comic. The series, which will launch out of the upcoming "Justice League vs. Suicide Squad" event, will be written by Steve Orlando and is expected to ship bi-weekly beginning in…
One of several comics to spin off from the final installment in the Arkham series, Batman: Arkham Knight: Genesis turns its eye on the game's big villain. Who is the Arkham Knight, and what made him? Spoilers for the game follow. What's included? Inside the Genesis trade, you'll find all six issues of this miniseries. We covered…
We are three issues into Titans, and every issue has left me feeling frustrated. Yet again, I find myself struggling to find the best way to express my opinion with this title because it isn't terrible, but it is far from great. Whenever a book falls on either side of the quality spectrum, it is…
Oh my squad, now this is a suicide mission! It’s the Suicide Squad vs Zod… or as I’m referring to it, Suicide Squad #3: the issue where people fall in love with Katana. After last month’s cliffhanger, I was eager to get my hands on this book! Did it deliver? In some ways, yes. In…
Barbara Gordon does something in this month’s issue of Batgirl that I’m pretty sure we never saw her do during her Burnside run (and possibly even before Burnside, when she was still under the helm of Gail Simone): she got fed up with someone’s shenanigans (Kai’s, of course), and utterly left him in the lurch.…
