Titans Hunt #1 “The Brave and the Bold” Written by Dan Abnett Art by Paulo Siqueira and Geraldo Borges Colors by Hi-Fi So this is the second book I’m covering this week that is better than the “main” title that features some of these characters. This week’s Deathstroke featured the Suicide Squad, and made Sean…
Deathstroke #11 “Assault on the Wall” Written by Tony Daniel and James Bonny Art by Tyler Kirkham Colors by Arif Prianto Our favorite mercenary is going after the Suicide Squad, and because of that, we’re covering Deathstroke this month! Now, I read this book each month, and I’ve mostly enjoyed it. There are times that…
Red Hood/ Arsenal #5 “Gotham Born” Written by Scott Lobdell Art by Denis Medri Colors by Blond I’m doing a little catch-up on some reviews that were missed, and this just happens to be one of those lucky titles… Let’s go ahead and just get this out there. I’ve been very open about how I…
This is easily the best issue of We are Robin to date. While not heavy on action, the issue boasts a substantial amount of introspection and plenty of motivational disclosure on our group of "would be heroes". We also get our first real look at the Robins' nemesis, along with an appearance of the Nest,…
New Suicide Squad #13 “Freedom” Written by Sean Ryan Art by Philipe Briones Colors by Blond Sean Ryan is back with a new arc for New Suicide Squad, and considering his last arc “Monsters” raised the bar for him, I’m hoping he can do that again. He doesn’t waste any time with this story, throwing…
Ironically titled “Nothing Will Stop Us”, Gotham by Midnight No. 10 picks up where we left off: Jim Corrigan covered in gore and his world collapsing around him. Equally, it meets the bar set in the previous issue with a story that manages to further the plot and character development despite the majority of it…
Welcome to a new nadir from the Batgirl team: a superhero book without any real superheroics that features a title character who is so insufferable you'd think she was the neurotic bride being married. “Dearly Beloved” gives us the conversation we should have had in the last issue of Grayson--but couldn’t because, you know, Spyral…
Batman ’66 #28: “Scarecrow Comes To Town/Hunt the Croc Down” Written by Jeff Parker Illustrated by Lukas Ketner and Dean Haspiel Colored by Kelly Fitzpatrick and Allen Passalaqua Lettered by Wes Abbott With only two months to go before we reach the sad conclusion of this series, Jeff Parker is taking one last chance to…
Arkham Knight: Genesis #3 Written by Peter J. Tomasi Illustrated by Dexter Soy Colored by Dave McCaig Lettered by Deron Bennet That right there, guys. It would be nice if they swapped the names or replaced "with" with "and," but hey, baby steps. Put bluntly, not much happens this issue. The bulk of the twenty…
This issue serves as an epilogue to the Darkseid War, but oh man does it kick off an interesting set of events. I was genuinely curious as to what would happen and what Darkseid's death meant in the world. Turns out that this wasn't a simple winner/loser battle. There's been a major shift in the status…
Secret Six #7 "There's Something at the Door, Darling" Written by Gail Simone Art by Dale Eaglesham and Tom Derenick Colors by Jason Wright Now this is what I'm talking about! Secret Six has been getting under my skin lately due to its inconsistency. If I were to say that the plot of the first…
Does everyone have their parental permission slips signed? Good, because we are off to Gotham City to have a field trip adventure that only the cast of Gotham Academy could deliver! Independence! For some kids, field trips were their first experience in controlled freedom. We all ventured out into the real world with our parents,…
The Batcave, The BatFamily, and even Bruce Wayne. It's like a family reunion in here, but actually fun! The gang is all here! I really liked how much of the team was represented in this story. At times, it got a little crowded, as if Seeley wanted to give each of them a little page…
Year Four concludes in this final installment that collects Digital Firsts 23 & 24, “Last Stand” and “Between the Gods”. Let’s just cut to the chase: the first half of this book seems to be setting up some brilliant cataclysm, but the back end just doesn’t deliver. It’s representative of the whole of Year Four,…
During the original run of Earth 2, one of my favorite characters was Jay Garrick, who received his speedster powers from the dying Greek god Hermes. Jay was always an interesting character because he represented the everyday person who was essentially gifted their abilities. Throughout Earth 2, Jay’s loyalties wavered between doing what was best…
Justice League of America #4 “Power & Glory” Written by Bryan Hitch Art by Bryan Hitch Inks by Daniel Henriques Colors by Alex Sinclair After more than a month’s wait, we finally have the fourth installment of Justice League of America. I’ve enjoyed this book so far, but have openly admitted that my overall consensus…
Teen Titans Go! Digital Issue #24: "Opposite Day!" Written by Sholly Fisch Illustrated and Inked by Dario Brizuela Colored by Jeremy Lawson Lettered by Wes Abbott It's opposite day in Jump City. ...err, it's not opposite day. ...... It's the same day. .......... GUH. It's like talking to Bizarro. Anyway, the Titans decide…
Catwoman #45 "The Daughter of One Who Had No Fear Written by Genevieve Valentine Art by David Messina Colors by Lee Loughridge After reading this issue, all I want to do is throw a temper tantrum about Valentine leaving. I'm talking full-on screaming and kicking, while rolling around on the floor... Like a hungry, angry…
This mini-series is, without a doubt, one of the worst collections of Bat-Mite stories I have ever read! The main plot involves a rare pilot episode of Galaxy Trek (Star Trek) turning up and Gridlock deciding to steal it. Remember, he is a collector of past "artifacts". In response, the Inferior Five take action because…
“Enlisted” concludes with a closing chapter of Zatanna and the Joker’s Daughter in Germany, Wonder Woman and Mera bringing Steve Trevor back to the world, and the return of Batwoman! As with previous issues of DC Bombshells, the split in the action is strongly demarcated by a dramatic change in the art style (more on…
