7 on Injustice: Year Four #12 reviewYear Four concludes in this final installment that collects Digital Firsts 23 & 24, “Last Stand” and “Between the Gods”. Let’s just cut to the chase: the first half of this book seems to be setting up some brilliant cataclysm, but the back end just doesn’t deliver. It’s representative of the whole of Year Four,…
I have to admit something to everyone… I’m really depressed that there are so few Titans themed books being released this week! Only three? That’s it? Well… I guess I shouldn’t complain… We’re getting more Titans in one week than we get of real Batman in a month at the moment… Ha! Jokes aside, I’m…
During the original run of Earth 2, one of my favorite characters was Jay Garrick, who received his speedster powers from the dying Greek god Hermes. Jay was always an interesting character because he represented the everyday person who was essentially gifted their abilities. Throughout Earth 2, Jay’s loyalties wavered between doing what was best…
Justice League of America #4 “Power & Glory” Written by Bryan Hitch Art by Bryan Hitch Inks by Daniel Henriques Colors by Alex Sinclair After more than a month’s wait, we finally have the fourth installment of Justice League of America. I’ve enjoyed this book so far, but have openly admitted that my overall consensus…
Teen Titans Go! Digital Issue #24: "Opposite Day!" Written by Sholly Fisch Illustrated and Inked by Dario Brizuela Colored by Jeremy Lawson Lettered by Wes Abbott It's opposite day in Jump City. ...err, it's not opposite day. ...... It's the same day. .......... GUH. It's like talking to Bizarro. Anyway, the Titans decide…
Catwoman #45 "The Daughter of One Who Had No Fear Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge After reading this issue, all I want to do is throw a temper tantrum about Valentine leaving. I'm talking full-on screaming and kicking, while rolling around on the floor... Like a hungry, angry…
Jim Gordon continues to try his best to get some gosh darn respect in the streets of Gotham as the new Batman, but it doesn't come anytime soon in this issue of Batman/Superman. He takes second fiddle as the story sticks with Superman and his growing pains. Appearances from Vandal Savage and Burnside's very own…
This mini-series is, without a doubt, one of the worst collections of Bat-Mite stories I have ever read! The main plot involves a rare pilot episode of Galaxy Trek (Star Trek) turning up and Gridlock deciding to steal it. Remember, he is a collector of past "artifacts". In response, the Inferior Five take action because…
“Enlisted” concludes with a closing chapter of Zatanna and the Joker’s Daughter in Germany, Wonder Woman and Mera bringing Steve Trevor back to the world, and the return of Batwoman! As with previous issues of DC Bombshells, the split in the action is strongly demarcated by a dramatic change in the art style (more on…
Last month Harley made her way back to the West Coast in pursuit of Sparrow Adaro, who is faking her own kidnapping to extort money from her mother. Things got a little complicated when Deadshot arrived to pick up a few bounties of his own. Unfortunately, Harley’s cowboy sidekick did not survive the encounter, but…
Welcome to the Cassandra Cain fan page. This week on the Cassandra Cain show, watch her own a baddie and take names! In all seriousness, the opening makes me wonder just how relevant any of the other characters are going to be in resolving the conflict. If the Orphan is the right hand man of…
This issue is as fascinating as it is puzzling. It's a mixed bag of awesome and ghastly, logical and nonsensical, bewildering and intelligible.... Before I get to the review proper, I wanted to take a moment to discuss something that just occurred to me a couple of days ago. I'm not sure why it took…
New York Comic Con was this weekend. I did not attend, but I kept a close eye on everything that DC was talking about. If I’m being honest, it made me sad. I wanted to be there so bad. There weren’t really any huge announcements pertaining to comics either, but I still wanted to be…
Last issue of Batman Beyond featured…you know what? Just read the last review. Or this one. It doesn’t matter. Did I just read the same issue twice? No, seriously, this is the exact same thing as last issue. Dan Jurgens must have planned this as some kind of time-loop thing. The parallels line up just…
Midnighter #5 Written by Steve Orlando Art by Stephen Mooney Colors by Romulo Fajaroo Jr and Jeremy Cox Midnighter and Dick are back together again, and this time, they’re holding hands! Well… kind of… This issue continues Midnighter’s hunt for the man who stole equipment from the God Garden. Along the way, he picked up…
Batman & Robin Eternal #1 introduces Cassandra Cain to the current continuity! So....that's all I really need for this review, right? Cassandra Cain aside, this is a phenomenal issue. Mystery...check. Action...check. Humor...check. Great artwork...check. Creepy little kids trying to kill you...check. Cassandra Cain...check ( yeah, I know I said "aside", but it's Cassandra frickin' Cain! …
This penultimate issue for Year Four includes Digital Firsts 21 & 22, “Going Dark” and “Darker Sides”. And while it’s got some big action that’s sure to please, Year Four’s weakest point hasn’t been a lack of action or stunning battle eye-candy--it’s been a lack of genuine surprise and awe. Ironic, when you’re dealing with…
This issue of Detective Comics premieres the new creative team of Peter J Tomasi and Marcio Takara. Are these two up to the challenge of presenting a worthwhile JimBat story? Will they succeed where others have failed, or is JimBat doomed to be one of the lowest moments in Batman history? Let's delve in and…
Batman: Arkham Knight #9: “Suicide Blues/Burning the Days” Written by Peter J. Tomasi Illustrated by Ig Guara and Viktor Bogdanovic Inked by Julio Ferreira and Richard Friend Colored by Andrew Dalhouse and John Rauch Lettered by Travis Lanham Are you as excited as I am to see Metamorpho, one of the coolest high-concept characters of…
