23 on Batman Eternal #29 reviewIn my opinion, the Arkham issues are the red headed stepchild of Batman Eternal, and I wish I could kick his teeth in... I usually try and find something positive to discuss, even in issues that I don't appreciate as much, and I can usually put my personal feelings aside and review strictly from a…
Batman '66 #16 Written by Jeff Parker Illustrated by Brent Schoonover Colors by Kelly Fitzpatrick Letters by Wes Abbott After a less than stellar adventure last month, can the Dynamic Duo's escapades return to form? Or have their rogues succeeded in doing the unthinkable: making Batman boring? The answer is yes. ...or... no. Err.... .......…
Batman Beyond Universe #15: "All In" Written by Kyle Higgins and Alec Siegel Illustrated by Thony Silas Colored by Guy Major Things are winding down, and that's pretty upsetting because there are so many stories that can be told in this universe. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long for a new series to…
Teen Titans is still young in its rebirth. Last month's Futures End tie-in was a wasted opportunity to keep the readership interested as it very little to Futures End or Teen Titans. But here we are in issue #3 in what has been a mostly positive relaunch and after reading it I'm feeling not-so-excited at the moment. The issue starts back…
We've hit a decent stride with the last several issues of Futures End. It makes me happy as both a reviewer and a consumer. I actually look forward to reading each issue and afterwards I don't feel I wasted $2.99 every time. This particular issue features some space action, hero bonding, hero un-bonding, genius thinking, and super punches.…
Batwoman #35 "Mystery In Space" Written by Marc Andreyko Art by Georges Jeanty Yes, you read that correctly. "Mystery in Space." And when they say space, they mean space. As in spaceships, space suits, no gravity, yet they're all throwing punches without being hurled out into the deep black, space. There's nothing metaphorical here... And…
Bring on the Furies! That’s where we’re at in Earth 2: World’s End, the Four Furies of Apokolips have arrived on Earth 2 and our Wonders are out to stop them. Last issue we received a complete overview of Earth 2, which is cool and all, but now we’re on the war path against some…
I tried explaining to my wife the ironic timing of The Amazo Virus arc that begins in this issue of Justice League with the current Ebola virus situation in the real world. She thought it was as strange as I did. I don't know if Geoff Johns had the Ebola virus in mind when the solicits for…
I've been very optimistic about this series. In the face of delays, artist changes, and strange directions I've said, "Okay, let's go with it." As this issue concludes an "arc" I kind of feel like the friend who says, "There's no way Eric would've cheated on Carol," and then is told that, yes, Eric did…
One thing that can be said about Tomasi's knack for storytelling is that each issue takes a distinctive, if small, step forward in the story. I can see the yellow steno pages at Peter Tomasi's desk with things written in it like "Bruce arrives on Apokolips. Batfamily makes move. Show Kalibak threat." The story takes…
You knew as soon as it was getting good with Huntress and Powergirl that DC would pull the rug out from underneath them and turn this into another Batman and Superman story. As if Batman/Superman wasn’t enough, or their indirect team-up in books like Justice League. So if you absolutely needed more Bruce and Clark…
After the Red Hood awesomeness that was Future’s End Month, I had forgotten how mediocre the issues beforehand were. For anyone who hasn’t read those previous issues in a while, there was a terrorist attack on Washington D.C., the Outlaws and S.H.A.D.E. got into a little spat, and Kori tracked down a former alien slaver…
Now, I’m reviewing this because it has Red Hood in it, and my only experience with Supergirl in the New 52 has been Batman/Superman Annual Issue 1 and some random panel in one of the earlier Worlds’ Finest issues. So any Supergirl fans please forgive any ignorance on my part. I wasn’t expecting much from…
The past three issues for Infinite Crisis had been a steady climb of improvement, taking interesting iterations of familiar characters and throwing them into a who’s-who battle royal. We saw heroes and villains from Earth-Prime, Arcane Earth, Nightmare Earth, Gaslight Earth, and Atomic Earth all battle for control of a super weapon. It was a…
The cover would lead one to believe that Batgirl is the star of this issue; the solicitations would point you toward Catwoman being the driving force behind it; but guess who should really be picking up this issue?...fans of the Red Hood! That's right! Jason Todd steals the show in this tale brought to us…
Teen Titans Go! #6: “But Games Can Never Hurt Me/Sleep Over” Written by Sholly Fisch, Merrill Hagan Illustrated by Jorge Corona Colors by Jeremy Lawson Letters by Wes Abbott Since writing the review for the last issue, I've gone back and watched every single episode of the Teen Titans Go! television series, just to get…
New Suicide Squad #3 "Pure Insanity" Written by Sean Ryan Art by Jeremy Roberts and Rob Hunter First off, I want to apologize for posting this so late. We've had a conference going on the past three days at my job, so I've been working until 1-2 in the morning every night. I was convinced…
Futures End has been on the up and up here lately, and it continues in issue #23 with more solid story progression. There are some new advertisements out that are pretty epic (if not a bit spoilerific) that've got me proud to be reading this title. "Too late," it reads, "Eye have seen it. You will…
This is going to be a doozy. An extra-sized review for an extra-sized issue, and what an issue it was. I came in with trepidation when Future’s End Month came out and it was just a horrifying nightmare of incoherent story, poor artwork, and boring characters. But then came this lovely issue, and provided me…
Welcome back to Earth 2! After the debacle that was Future’s End Month, we’re back to the present and Earth 2 is catching its breath following the death of Bizarro and the attack by Apokolips. I’ll come right out and say it: There’s a lot of recap and a lot of story, which isn’t necessarily…
