  • The Bat-Man: First Knight #3 review

    All good things must come to an end. This issue marks the end of Dan Jurgens and Mike Perkins' The Bat-Man: First Knight. As I have already said, I absolutely love this series. Can the final issue manage to tie up all the loose ends while managing to be satisfying? Let's take a look under the…

Let's get to it. And then there's Kong Superman is back! We start off with a little explanation on how…


  • Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #27 review

    The fight continues as imps run wild across the world. Just as last time, most of this issue is comprised of big spectacle fights that showcase the crazy powers and abilities granted by the fifth-dimensional invaders. The story immediately and clearly establishes the tone it's going for with its first page, where Bat-Mite recreates the…


  • Catwoman #65 review

     Another month down and “Nine Lives” just won’t die; apt I suppose. It started out as a strong story and bottomed out in the middle but, despite slight recovery, it has now just lost my interest. Maybe this month can pick it back up. Let’s find out! The first thing I noticed was the change up in artists. Ivan Shavrin takes over for Di Giandomenico and colors…


  • Upcoming Comics May 21, 2024

    Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! You know, writing articles for this site can be a ton of fun. I had a blast with my Morrison pieces and they just generally give us an opportunity to talk about stuff we care about. However, sometimes they're filled with the minutiae that make the process feel stupid. For…


  • Batman and Robin and Howard #3 Review

    Tension between Damian Wayne and Howard comes to a head in part three of this repurposed series of the well-received graphic novel by Jeffrey Brown. After being in a fight with one another, the two boys are somewhat forced to be cordial and work together which might lead them to actually realizing that they might…


  • Suicide Squad: Dream Team #3 Review

    Dreamer has gone AWOL, and the reorganized Task Force X has a new objective: capture her alive by any means necessary and bring her back to Waller. Waller obviously has ulterior motives that could threaten the future of the whole planet. But in her mind, she is doing the right thing. This penultimate issue of…


  • Batman and Robin #9 Review

    Hello everyone! Jack here, filling in for William on this month’s Batman and Robin review. After studying all week to try and remember which one is Batman and which one is Robin, I think I’m finally ready to give this a shot! Batman and Robin opens with Batman captured in Man-Bat’s lair (Man-Bat swears he’s…


  • Red Hood: The Hill #4 Review

    Now that Red Hood (seemingly) cannot handle the Hill situation by himself, Bat-Daddy is here to helicopter parent his prodigal son. But is Jason going to put up with his deadbeat dad showing up to tell him who the man of the house is? Or is Bruce going to send him back to his room…


  • Batman / Dylan Dog #3 Review

    When I was about thirteen-years-old I was scouring through dusty back issue boxes in my local comic shop and happened upon the late ‘90s Batman/Judge Dredd: Die Laughing miniseries. In retrospect, it wasn’t a particularly appropriate read for such a young comics fan, but I remember feeling enchanted by the idea that a comic book…


  • Outsiders #7 review

    The cat is out of the bag! In the previous issue, Drummer reveals that she has been Jakita Wagner the entire time! Whether readers are familiar with the events of Planetary or not, Outsiders #7 takes time to illuminate the true fate of the team. Let's take a look. You've Been In My Story Since…


  • Upcoming Comics May 14, 2024

Hopefully this all spells good news for DC media in the…


  • Gotham City Sirens series coming in August

    After 13 years, the Gotham City Sirens are back! For a little while, that is at least. The original Gotham City Sirens was created by Paul Dini in 2009 and quickly became a cult classic, though ended when DC's titles were rebooted in 2011 with the New 52. Now, this August, the ongoing comics of Harley…


  • The Boy Wonder #1 Review

    Before we start chatting about this comic, I have to admit something. I've never liked Damian Wayne as a character. He's as moody and insufferable as Jason Todd without any of the qualities that make the Red Hood interesting. So when I picked up the inaugural issue of The Boy Wonder, I was skeptical.  It…


  • Poison Ivy #22 Review

    Zombies creeping through a devastated marshland. Poison Ivy undergoing a transformation showcasing a powerful new ability. Solomon Grundy hanging out with Killer Croc. These are just a few of the stellar elements that come together in Poison Ivy #22. Unfortunately, these concepts don’t get as much opportunity to shine as they should. My recap of…


  • The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #5 review

    Another month, another mystery. At least, that’s what we’ve got in the latest issue of The Batman and Scooby-Doo Mysteries! We’re going back to some Scoob and Batman roots by revisiting Jekyll, Hyde and Man-Bat! Let’s see what kind of hijinks ensue… Fred-Splaining The premise of this issue is simple but effective. To help permanently…


  • Batman #147 review

    It's starting to feel like the beginning of the end. This Zur-En-Arrh saga which has been going since the beginning of Zdarsky's run back in 2022 seems to be preparing for its grand finale. The stakes are building, the antagonists are preparing to make their final moves, and the core themes of what this was…

    Once again, John Layman takes us back into his Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League prequel. This time, we follow Boomerang's disastrous escape from the Arkham Asylum riots! We all know he will survive, but lets take a closer look at how! A Side Of Bedlam Concurrent with the theme of the other three issues,…


  • Upcoming Comics May 7, 2024

    Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! It's yet another week where the bat books dwarf anything else DC is putting out. I guess I shouldn't complain about job security, plus who could deny the people such demanded comics like... the tie-in to a failed video game? Uh, sure, let's go with that. Wait, don't go! I…
