Hello everyone and welcome back to Upcoming Comics! I hope you’ve had great week! I’ve been busy moving, and am in fact deep in the middle of that as I get ready to share the week’s comics with you all. So I’m going to keep this intro pretty short because I have a veritable ton…
I had mixed expectations going into this issue. On one hand, it’s written by Matthew Cody, who previously wrote my favorite issue of this series. On the other, it’s drawn by Scott Jeralds, who I was less than impressed by when he drew issue four. Well, my expectations were subverted on both counts. This issue…

Now, our hero has to answer to someone from Xanthe's past. Breaking Your Mother's Heart When the story began, Xanthe saves a…
You’re not going to believe me, but before I read this comic, I was seriously considering whether or not I was being too hard on this series. That was before I read this comic. This comic made me sick to my stomach. It made not want to have to write this review because that would…

The artwork will be done by artist Leonardo Romero, who revealed a first look at Black Canary, the new leader of the team. An all-new era…
This is such a frustrating run. Not only have the first two arcs been very disappointing in terms of quality, but it’s also been really derivative of older runs and other stories. It’s a real chore to get through these issues, and I’m afraid this one’s not any different. So to those who want a…
Dark Knights of Steel readies itself for the final phase of the story. As Protex conspires to destroy the El Kingdom once and for all, the heroes plan out all their necessary defensive measures. Although there is only one more issue to go, the penultimate chapter shows a a surprising amount of restraint. In fact,…
If you’ve seen the cover for this issue, you probably think it’s all about Harley and Ivy spending a romantic evening together. After all, the cover shows them on a boat ride on a lake outside of Gotham, drinking champagne with the issue's tag line being, “Date Night.” Well, if you think that’s what this…
A miracle has happened in this issue of Joker. We get plot progression! It’s not much plot progression. In fact, I could pretty much sum it up in 3 sentences. However, at least we get somewhere. Killer Croc and Joker Throughout this story, we’ve met various Batman rogues who each have a different opinion on who…
Hello everyone and welcome back to Upcoming Comics! I hope you’ve all had a great week and start to your July! I’ve spent this Saturday up at work helping host a kick off party for the library’s annual Summer Reading Club. If you haven’t swung by your local library lately I highly recommend doing so,…
This month Detective Comics kicks into high gear as Batman and his allies charge forward to confront the Orghams. Will pushing the pace into a higher gear jump start this run, and breathe some much needed momentum into things? Let’s see. Right away I want to say that I am so glad to see faster…
DC Comics is back to kick start pride month with DC Pride: 2023 #1, which follows the same format as the last two years with several short stories featuring some of DC's most prevalent LGBTQIA+ characters. Before reading the stories, I urge everyone to read Phil Jimenez’s foreword which is exceptionally well done and reminds…
Hello everyone and welcome back to Upcoming Comics! This week is really light coverage wise, between the fact that it’s a fifth week, and we only have two Bat books to cover: Detective Comics and DC’s Pride special for this year. Still there’s plenty of content packed into both of those, plus Beyond the Bat,…
To say that Batman and Catwoman have had a rough few years together would be quite the understatement, what with their romance, almost-marriage, splitting up, getting glimpses of their future, and now what could charitably be called "rocky separation." But none of that compares to what's to come later this year, as the Dark Knight…
My review for the previous issue had an astonishing amount of comments, each one providing fun or insightful viewpoints that I am happy to share here before we start the review! With Tim Drake being the titular character it’s normal that many people who are invested in the character would speak out about his misrepresentation…
Oh, hey there, Bat-fans! Nice to see you! I've been on a sort of mini vacation. You see, I figured out a sweet way to do way less review work than I normally would! It's a genius plan, really. I wait, say, about two months, and then come back to do a double review! Sort…
