66 on Batman #46 reviewThis week, in Batman #46, it's more time traveling high jinks with that lovable goofball Booster Gold. If you thought he made a mess of things in The Gift part one, just wait till you see what he does this time out... Before getting onto Batman #46, I wanted to take a moment to revisit…
Ben Percy and Chris Mooneyham begin their run on Nightwing, and as much as I want to say they knock it out of the park… I can’t. Well, Mooneyham hits a home run, but Percy only made it to first base. There are three things that define and shape this book, for better or worse:…
It's early, but we've already reached the point in "Deathstroke vs. Batman" where I'm starting to lose interest. It's a shame, too, as the debut issue was surprisingly engrossing and had lots of promise. While I can't quite put my finger on what caused the story to lose steam so quickly, I do know that…
Back in August of 2017, Paul Dini and Bret Blevins concluded a nine-issue backup story in the regular Harley Quinn comic series, but the story didn’t actually end! And now at last, eight months later, the tale will wrap up in this two-issue mini dedicated to the Harley Loves Joker era. It feels like an…
Teen Titans #19 not only concludes the arc It Ain’t Easy Being Green, but it’s also the final issue of Ben Percy’s run. Last month we saw that Beast Boy got “bio-hacked,” meaning his mind got taken over and he couldn’t control his beast forms. He changed into a giant bat and flew away with…
It’s no secret that my opinion on Suicide Squad, as a series, hasn’t been very high as of late. I’ve found the story about Hack to be very predictable, and therefore boring and dull. However, #39 turned out to be a lot better than preceding episodes, with strong characters and a much more focused plot.…
Annual #2 is the last issue in the current run of Titans before the team join in with the events of No Justice and then get a semi-reboot in Titans Special #1 in June. As Dan Abnett was given 36 pages to tie things up, I expected quite a lot to be packed into this…
Ulysses Hadrian Armstrong, The General, releases the entire might of Brother Eye and the Omacs against the recently shattered Batfamily. Will they be able to put their past behind them and band together to save Gotham from this staggering threat, or will the citizens of Gotham City once again be collateral damage as the villain…
Its the final issue of Trinity and though it’s been clear for a while now that the series wouldn’t be going out on a high, characters act as they should, in-world rules are established and followed, plot points are resolved and questions are answered! In fact, the entire first half of the book is taken…
Viktor Bogdanovic joins The Silencer with this issue, and man does his work look good! Last month, I went on a bit of a rant about how DC is handling their New Age of Heroes imprint, and I think some readers misinterpreted that I was unhappy with The Silencer itself. Let me clarify, that’s not…
The Justice League of America are stranded at the dawn of time, and the god of superheroes lies slain at their feet. Can they defeat Chronos and ensure the continued existence of heroism on Earth? Considering there will still be comics coming out of DC's publishing house as soon as next week, I think it's…
Duke's make-or-break series comes to a dramatic end and though the book itself suggests he's here to stay, I suspect readers may feel differently. Just like the previous issues of Batman and The Signal, issue #3 opens with a page of confusing monologue from Duke that has little to do with the story. I think Tony…
With a title like “Strange Loop” I can only hope that writer Hope Larson isn’t planning to Ground Hog day us with this closing arc on Batgirl. So far the signs are good that we’re in for a different kind of strange, though. With Shawn Aldridge stepping in for the June issue, Larson will take…
In issue #18, Batman Beyond took a step in the right direction by finally bringing an end to the parade of one-dimensional villain encounters and by introducing lasting changes to the status quo. Issue #19 serves as both the finale of the arc and as an examination of the effects one of these adjustments has…
In The Brave and the Bold: Batman and Wonder Woman #3, the story moves forward at a calm pace. Where previously the focus was mostly on Wonder Woman, it shifts to Batman in this chapter. We get to see inside his analytical mind as the pair are solving the murder of the king of Tir…
The story comes full circle for the Super Sons as Kid Amazo is back on the scene. The boys' first real foe has broken free from his imprisonment at LexCorp and sets his sights on amassing more and more power. Pretty basic plot, and it works well enough. Per usual, though, the real draw here…
Batwoman readers have been waiting quite a while for the return of Alice and though she’s demented as ever and gets plenty of page-space this month, issue #14 left me a little underwhelmed. There aren’t any flashbacks this issue, which is a relief as I think we’re all ready for the story proper to begin.…
It’s Damian versus Roy Harper in this week’s Nightwing! Ok… Not really, but it might as well be because the banter between these two is a ton of fun! This is the second “filler” issue for Nightwing before Ben Percy begins his run in May. Typically, I’m not the biggest fan of filler issues. I…
If you want to read a really unusual issue of Batman, well, you've come to the right place. However, Batman #45 isn't so much a Batman story as it is a Booster Gold story featuring Batman. That sentence alone might be all that some of you need to know in order to opt out of…
I know what happens in Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #6, but I couldn't really tell you the sequence of events. There are notable things that stick out here and there, yet the structure completely escapes me. The finale plays out more like a montage of events than an actual narrative, which keeps even the…
