3 on Sandman: Act II will hit Audible in Sept.Audible is diving back into the world of the Dreaming with Sandman: Act II beginning in Sept. Following the success of Part I of the Audible adaptation, the Amazon-owned company was quick to renew the series for a Part II and Part III. The second installment is finally ready to go and will debut on…
This week might have to involve a bit of "phoning it in", as they say. It's not that either Justice League or Justice League Dark have terrible instalments this week - in fact, both stories make clear efforts to progress the story and get their audiences excited for what's to come. That being said, I'm not all…
Nightwing #82 makes good on the promise of its cover, spending most of the issue in a flashback showing exactly how Melinda Zucco is Dick Grayson’s sister. While there will be some readers who are immediately put off by this revelation, what’s on the page here is a well told story that remains true to…
Catwoman #33 picks the pace right back up on a narrative front, effortlessly regaining its high stakes after two issues of backstory. That’s not to say the series ever dipped, but Ram V’s script does appear to know it’s time to ramp up again given the sheer amount of chaos in this month’s issue. Fernando…
Here we are at the last part of Robertson’s Bad Night, Good Knight story. Batman has had a rough night, chasing down various Rogues, struggling with his own personal demons, and when we last left him, being captured by Quiz. Will Robertson stick the landing, or are the disparate portions of this story just not…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! This week was a sad one for comic book fans - especially those who have been keeping an eye on rising talent in the industry. So, before we get to the comics, I want to show you some quotes from a few of my past reviews. Robson Rocha. This guy…
In this flashbackular spectacular, Captain James Gordon over-promises and over-books District Attorney Harvey Dent, his wife and children, and his own internal need to keep an eye on the recently captured Joker. Hijinks ensue! ART When I first looked over this issue, looking at the panels I thought, Who’s doing this half-arsed Francesco Francavilla looking…
There’s hardly a comic I’ve been looking forward to more this year than Batman ‘89. A return to the continuity of Tim Burton’s Batman movies, written by Sam Hamm, the screenwriter of the classic 1989 blockbuster, with art from the incredible Joe Quinones and Leonardo Ito, and letters from Clayton Cowles? It’s enough to make…
Prepare for a double-dose of spookiness this October, as DC Comics have announced two new series that are sure to chill you the the bone. Or satisfy your desire for horror around Halloween. Either one works. You see, we’ll be getting one book with zombies, and another with vampires. Here’s hoping we complete the hat…
Hey guys! You're talking to Nick today - Brian couldn't make it for this review, so I've stolen his identity for the next few hours so that I can upload this article. Rest assured, I've made many purchases with his PayPal account. Brian's reviews for Tom Taylor and Andy Kubert's Batman: The Detective have painted a pretty…
If there’s one artist that I’ve been wanting to draw a full Batman comic, it’s Andrea Sorrentino, known for critically acclaimed comics such as Green Arrow, Old Man Logan and Gideon Falls. Well, my fellow comic fans, the time has come at last! In October Sorrentino will be joining forces with The Batman co-writer Mattson…
There are a lot of ideas in this series that I like, but I haven’t always been a fan of the execution of those ideas. The previous issue was certainly an improvement, as it had several scenes that I liked a lot, but there were also moments where I had my doubts and concerns. Still,…
Scooby and the gang are back, and they're facing their greatest threat yet- Black Mask! They'll need some help on this one, and who better than Nightwing and Batgirl? That's right sports fans, Nightwing is here!! In a Scooby-Doo comic!! I literally could not be happier. Now, before I spend my entire article gushing about…
After a promising second issue, Future State: Gotham returns for its third foray into the dark future of, well, Gotham. Previously, Peacekeeper Red and the Next Batman had been caught in the middle of a mass breakout at Blackgate Penitentiary. Will this unlikely duo survive the night, or do the inmates of Blackgate have more…
Last month we saw the Super Sons manage to escape Vandal Savage in the past only to run into him in the present again! Just what are they to do about that? Save the day of course! We are officially at the halfway point of this series and I have to say this issue was…
We’ve reached the conclusion of Tamaki’s first arc, “The Neighborhood.” Gradually, I’ve been getting more and more critical of this series, but I was still hoping that the creative team would be able to stick the landing. Do they succeed? Let’s have a look. Well…while I wouldn’t say this entire comic book is bad, I…
Once more into the fire, as we have another issue of Batman: Urban Legends. As I said in this week’s Upcoming Comics, there are two types of stories in this series: okay stories from great creators, and backdoor pilots for potential standalone books. This month, at least one of the stories is both of those…
It’s hard to imagine Gotham City without Batman. The Dark Knight and his home are practically synonymous with one another, to the point that when asked, practically anyone would be able to tell you that Batman lives in Gotham City, even if they’ve never touched a comic book in their entire life. But a Gotham…
Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! Interesting week, this one - if you'd asked me if I expected Jeph Loeb to be writing another Long Halloween comic with Tim Sale (let alone another DC comic book again), I'd have laughed about the prospect. Loeb has had his fair share of controversy recently, with some serious accusations of…
It is one of the most acclaimed Batman stories of all time, listed alongside classics such as Batman: Year One and The Dark Knight Returns as essential reading. Both self-contained and a pseudo-continuation of Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s origin story, Batman: The Long Halloween is perhaps the crowning achievement atop the already impressive list if collaborations…
