5 on DC and WEBTOON team up for new storiesDC has announced a new partnership with WEBTOON that will see brand-new stories coming to the service in the near future. DC announced the new partnership with WEBTOON on Tuesday via a press release. No information is available as of yet as to which characters will be used in the new digital-only stories, but it…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! I really wish I could talk to you about The Suicide Squad, but with my state being in lockdown until September 2 (and my country not having HBO Max), I can't really comment on it. Even if I had a friend who was accessing it online legally, streaming services have…
The Cobblepot’s number one son who was treated like number two returns this November, as legendary actor and national treasure Danny DeVito will contribute a Penguin story to the one-shot comic Gotham City Villains Anniversary Giant #1. While DeVito’s take on the Penguin is certainly unique and very much a product of the film he…
Superheroes are cool. I mean, Superman? Batman? Black Lightning? Wonder Woman? Awesome. You know what else is cool? Medieval fantasy. All of it is cool. Swords and sorcery, knights, castles, and dragons? Especially dragons. And do you know who is cool? Tom Taylor and Yasmine Putri. One of comics’ best writers and artists, respectively. So…
The main feature of last month’s Joker was a flashback, providing a little more insight into the history between Joker and Jim and really highlighted Jim’s own growing obsession with him. This month, the story returns to the present and we finally get to see where Jim is now. I am not shy about my…
What’s this? Another comic book starring that teenaged daredevil dynamo Robin, the Boy Wonder? And this from the duly acclaimed team behind such fantastic fables as Descender and Ascender? Yes, dear reader, Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen will turn back the clocks this November with Robin & Batman, a three-issue, prestige format miniseries that chronicles…
What makes a good spy? If you ask the world of Hollywood, I think you'd get a significantly different answer than if you asked someone who really worked in a secret service. Movies such as the James Bond franchise might have you believe being a secret agent is all about sneaking through exotic locales in…
Almost every Batman fan has a favorite Robin, I think it’s safe to say. Whether you go with Dick Grayson, the original Boy Wonder, Jason Todd, the successor who never lived up to his predecessor, Tim Drake, the correct choice, Stephanie Brown for her short-loved stint, or Damian Wayne for being… well, he’s gotten better,…
Before I start this review, I think it's important to read my recently uploaded review for The Next Batman: Second Son. Make no mistake, I Am Batman #0 is not the start to a new series, but the end of a previous one - and while I liked Second Son, it's a little frustrating that the creative…
At the beginning of 2021, Future State was released into the world - and whether you like it or not, it's been one of the driving forces of momentum for DC's universe as of late. Personally, I've found it kind of interesting! Seeing where places such as Gotham City are in the near future is…
Four issues in and I still can't tell how I feel about this book. In the beginning, I saw a lot of things that I liked, but there were a lot of things that made me think "well, on the other hand..." Then there started to be more and more hands, until there were just…
Okay okay okay. I need to start this review by talking about the first page of this issue because if I don't get it out right now I'm going to spend the whole review gushing about this joke. Vinnie Letterio. The Fontz. VINNIE. LETTERIO. THE FONTZ. The setup. The execution. It's perfect. It's literally perfect.…
This series is slowly growing on me. Every issue reveals more about what’s going on and I’m beginning to understand the story better. As such, I think this will read better in trade, because then the story’s momentum won’t be interrupted by a whole month of waiting for the next installment and everything can be…
I’ve been critiquing this series quite a bit, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t find it entertaining. On the contrary, I’m always looking forward to more Dan Mora and Jordie Bellaire art! To me, they are DC’s best art team at the moment and it’s a real treat that they’re on Detective Comics. But what…
James Tynion IV, the current writer of DC’s flagship Batman title, has announced he is leaving the series after issue #117. Tynion, who also confirmed he will leave The Joker with issue #14, has already set up several creator owned books, which he will publish on Substack. Per Tynion’s newsletter, after his runs on Batman…
Last month we got caught up on what's going on present day as the Super Sons tangled with Vandal Savage and rushed off to rescue another League member. With the list of heroes left to save dwindling and the boys not so secret antics starting to leave a trail, just what is in store for…
Let me be real here: the current state of Batman comics has left me wanting for quite some time now. There’s a whole lot of Batman content out there, but more often than not it seems like it’s quantity over quality. There are a few gems here and there, to be sure, as The Batman…
Before we even dive into the contents of this issue, I think we can all agree that the cover from Nicola Scott and Annette Kwok is absolutely aces. Batman and Red Hood facing off in the foreground while their classic counterparts rush forward in the background? Gorgeous work. If only the contents inside matched the…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! I'm a little bummed, if I'm gonna be honest with you guys. This is the mid-trimester break for my school, and unlike other breaks - which seem to always be hampered by lockdowns now - this one actually involved me planning a little vacation. Nothing risky, mind you: just a…
DC has announced all of the titles that will be added to the DC Universe Infinite service in August. Titles range from the classic to the recent with lots to keep you entertained throughout the end of the summer. August is here, and now more than ever there’s new content coming to DC UNIVERSE INFINITE!…
