34 on Batman Eternal #20 reviewThis story is filled with a ton of action and resolutions but at the same time something about it feels hollow. It may just be me, but I had the feeling that none of the Heroes were allowed to have their moments to shine. There has been a progressive build these last few issues and…
If you like Wonder Woman, you’re probably super-excited about her new ground-breaking Digital First series (available as a floppy on the heels of its electronic release like other Digital First titles). Similar to Legends of the Dark Knight and Adventures of Superman, which preceded it, this will be a proving ground for new and varied…
Scribblenauts Unmasked: A Crisis of Imagination #8: "The Game of Everything/The Magical Multiverse Tour" Written by Josh Elder Illustrated by Adam Archer Colors by Ian Herring Letters by Saida Temofonte I don't even know how to start this review off, so I'll just dive right in. Previously, we saw Maxwell and Lily as the sole…
I’m not sure if you’re aware, but to celebrate 75 years of Batman, Warner Brother’s Studios set up a Batman Exhibit on their lot. I was recently there, and had the opportunity to check it out... and I’m not going to lie, it was pretty awesome! There were displays for each live action Batman film,…
There is nothing more I can say that is new/profound/exciting about this issue or this series as a whole. Perhaps if I had more of an attachment to the characters or a general feeling that I cared about what might happen, then maybe I'd be more than blasé about it, but that's just a personal…
It took a while to get back to Worlds’ Finest, but at long last, our heroines are back on Earth 2. After five years gathering resources on Earth Prime, Huntress and Powergirl find themselves back on their home planet. The only problem is that their world has been torn apart by the war between the…
Birds of Prey #34: “Things Fall Apart” Written by Christy Marx Art by Robson Rocha Last month, Christy Marx delivered, in my opinion, the best issue of Birds of Prey that she's ever penned. I was hoping she would follow up with something as strong, or stronger, to close out the book, but she doesn't.…
New Suicide Squad #2: “Pure Insanity” Written by Sean Ryan Art by Tom Derenick Last month, DC launched the New Suicide Squad, with their updated team, unapologetic self-awareness, and a decent amount of action. My one complaint about the issue, and reservation for the title, was that they didn't do much with the characters. There…
Issue No. 9: “Some Nerd Rage with your Birdcage?” explores what happens when Harley incites yet another riot in the performance space of her own building and is subsequently arrested by a cop. The cop turns out to be a creepy stalker named Ed who was teased at the end of issue No. 8, and…
I am aware that a lot of you are concerned about #34 and/or the End Game story line (coming up in October) potentially ruining events from Eternal, as End Game is set after Eternal. As a warning, there are a couple of things that could be viewed as spoilers, but for the most part it…
Personally, I've always felt that Jason delivered his most worthwhile contribution upon dying. His death sent ripples through the DC Universe that are still felt to this day. While I was worried that bringing him back from the dead might make the relevance of his death less impactful, I figured that if it was handled…
After providing the voice and adventures for Batgirl since the advent of the New 52, Gail Simone officially ends her tenure with Batgirl with an issue titled (interestingly) “Crash and Burn”. It’s been a bumpy ride to be sure, but it looks like she’s found a new home with Sensation Comics writing Wonder Woman, and…
Print issue No. 9 collects the Digital Firsts 17 & 18, “Absolute Freaking Carnage” and “Ground Assault” all wrapped up in a gloriously simple, yet awesomely ominous cover by Stéphane Roux. Tom Taylor’s written a series you never want to see come to an end. Last month I felt a little eh about some minor…
Jim Corrigan has been a major player in the weekly Batman Eternal series, but starting November 26th he'll be getting a brand new book all his own titled "Gotham by Midnight." Strange doings are afoot in Gotham City! Look out, though – Jim Corrigan is on the case in this new monthly series by writer…
Last week I asked you which Batman character each of us (the review team) reminded you of… Well, the results are in the spoiler tag. Make sure you check them out, and tell me what you think. There’s one in particular that should give you a good laugh! And now, the reason that you’re actually…
Written and illustrated by the great Jiro Kuwata, this classic 1960's Japanese serial is back and looking better than ever in digital form! The finale of the Dr. Faceless arc is available this Saturday at all your favorite online comic shops for just 99 cents, but you can get an exclusive sneak peek here and…
Tiny Titans: Return to the Treehouse #2 Written by Art Baltazar and Franco Illustrated by Art Baltazar It's funny how, occasionally, different characters will affect you in different ways. Last month we encountered Superman in these pages, a character familiar to everyone and a figurehead of the comics industry. As much as I love Superman…
Promotions for Justice League 3000 set this issue up as the battle between The League and The Five. Although this is partially true, it seems that the struggle between the two pentacular teams is far from over. Last time on Cadmusworld, Terry of the Wonder Twins had revealed himself as leader and creator of The…
The previous issue of Earth 2 earned, in my opinion, a perfect score. I have been writing since high school and have always adhered to the rule that the greater the build-up to the climax of a tale, the greater the payoff has to be. Prior to The New 52, I had read all of…
When presented with a finale, there are usually two questions on people's minds: was it a satisfying conclusion to the series as a whole? and did everything get wrapped up? The answer to both of these is no. But that is not to say I didn't enjoy the issue for what it was. Just not…
