0 on Catwoman #35 reviewDespite being a tie-in for the Fear State event, fans of the series should definitely still pick Catwoman #35 up. Ram V’s script does an excellent job of melding its obligations of being a tie-in issue, while still developing several plot threads and character motivations from the main series. There’s a great sense of continuity…
Answers. We all want them, and now we get them. Or, at least, some of them. But are they satisfying answers? Is Batman: The Detective #5 the reveal we wanted? Bat-trucks and Belgian intrigue When I reviewed the first issue of this series, I said, among other things: For a book entitled The Detective, this one…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! First, some administrative news. I understand you guys didn't want this - and we're not super happy about it either - but we are going to have to roll back on some of our weekly reviews, mainly on account of the sheer number of Bat-books coming out lately. This isn't…
Wow! I hated this issue! Like, oh my god! At first I thought it was the state of mind I was in at the time of my first reading, but no - looking through it again, I could not bring myself to like this. At all! Not even the usual high standard of Justice League…
I’m not going to spend too long on the introduction since Batman: The World is a hefty book and there’s a ton to cover with each story. But if you haven’t heard of this graphic novel yet, it’s an anthology featuring stories told by creative teams from 14 countries across the world. Each story takes…
With James Tynion IV jumping ship, the future of The Joker series might be up in the air — but one thing is quickly becoming an absolute certainty: my rapidly expanding disdain of this run. ART So. Art. Yeah. Where to begin. I’ve run the spectrum of lukewarm to occasionally positive regarding Guillem March’s art…
NOTE: Read Batman: Fear State Alpha #1 before reading this issue. Alright everyone, take three! Time for the third - yes, third - new John Ridley Batman book, starring the exact same character you've seen in the first two. With the first series taking place in the future and the second being digital-first, this will be…
Okay. I know what you're thinking. I was thinking it too. A Titans synergy comic? Who the hell asked for this? That'd be like asking for a Superman comic written by the guy who wrote like, Holy Terror or something. Me. I did. I've wanted to cover a Titans book for ages now. Regardless, you can relax.…
Mystery Inc. rejoins the Caped Crusader for a trip down memory lane... to their first case! Watch as young Bruce Wayne gets rejected for detective studies in favor of a pup! What pup, you ask? Why, a pup named Scooby-Doo, of course!! Let's jump in to this delightfully fun-sized adventure. Listening to the Pup Named…
When I first started reviewing this title, I was on the fence. Then the book started growing on me. But having read this issue, I’m having mixed feelings again. So let’s jump right in and see what this is all about! The book opens with action, which I like! There’s no intro. No build-up. No…
The Super Sons have had their hands full, dealing with Vandal Savage in the past and present and working to foil their quest to take out the Justice League. Slowly but surely they’ve stopped each of the traps set for the Justice League, and all that’s left is to figure out just how their adventures…
Wind back the clock earlier this year and Batman ‘89 was far and away at the op of my list of most anticipated comics. The only other book that came close was Superman ‘78, for many of the same reasons (and which was excellent, by the way.) The first issue earned a lot of goodwill…
Well, I suppose I did ask for this, after all. My main complaint about Batman: Urban Legends has been the lack of standalone stories. Almost everything has either been one part of a multi-part tale, or a "one-shot" that really just serves as a backdoor pilot to a forthcoming book. Yes, I've brought this up…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! So, this is a huge week for Bat-books. I'm tempted to jump right into it, but I'd be remiss if I didn't talk about one of the biggest moves DC has made to connect with new audiences in recent history: its Webtoon partnership. If you're on Twitter - or any online…
Suicide Squad: Get Joker. The Black Label book that placed Red Hood as the field leader of the Suicide Squad, and sends the team of criminals on a mission to kill the Joker… Only for Joker to kill Waller and take control of the “boom box,” essentially giving him control of the Suicide Squad instead.…
Time for more Justice League Infinity! The previous issues have been delightful. Will Justice League Infinity #3 keep up the momentum? And arguably more importantly, will we finally get a little more time with these characters we know and love? Read on to find out. ART Ethan Beaver’s art and Nick Filardi’s colors continue to…
Batman #112. The second issue of Fear State, and the second issue that does absolutely nothing to progress the story. I feel like we’re getting played over here. Last week Batman: Fear State Alpha hit shelves and people had mixed feelings about it. The book was designed for readers who hadn’t been picking up all…
I thoroughly enjoyed the first issue of this series. The writing was dynamic, the art excellent and Joker was actually funny instead of being a murderous psycho in clown make-up. This issue picks up right where the first one left off: inside the interrogation room in the GCPD headquarters, where Gordon is interviewing Joker. Let’s…
I swore to myself when I saw I was being hit with a double Suicide Squad week that I would save the best for last, and review issue #8 before this annual. Unfortunately, I can't do that, because someone made the decision that the annual should directly continue and expand on issue #6 so much…
Suicide Squad issue #7 is here! All of our questions for issue #6 will be answered! Who is the other Superboy? What is Waller up to? Where's Rick Flagg? Who let him out? All questions that should naturally be answered in the directly next issue, right? Right? Wrong! BUCKLE UP, BUCKAROOS, THE SUICIDE SQUAD IS…
