1 on Dark Knights Of Steel: Tales From The Three Kingdoms #1 reviewDark Knights of Steel: Tales From The Three Kingdoms features an anthology of three young adult tales set within the Knights of Steel universe. Tom Taylor, Jay Kristoff, and C.S Pacat transport readers to a simpler time before the war between kingdoms breaks out. Each adventure follows orphans or members of the El family in…
I’ve said it before but I think it bears repeating: issue two is always the point where a comic book begins coming together. I always know whether I want to keep reading or not at this point and the good news is, this story is still delivering. Issue one left me with a lot of…
While we get our first fight between the Teen Justice team and their Green Lantern opponents, a handful of mysteries surrounding the suspicious involvement of Raven comes creeping in to remind us that there is much more to this story than meets the eye. This issue is full of teasers for things to come, which…
This is it. The final issue of the weekly Harley Quinn arc. I have to say, after reading and critiquing six issues worth of Stephanie Phillips' Harley Quinn for an entire month, it feels like I should get a medal. It’s also worked up a lot of other emotions in me… but we’ll get to…
To review this anthology, my fellow reviewers and I are teaming up! Usually, anthologies turn out to be a mixed bag in terms of quality, but what about this one? Seeing as this is going to be a long article, let’s go right ahead and take a look! Gotham Academy: "Sophomore Year" Matina: Sophomore Year…
The team behind Harley Quinn: The Animated Series: The Eat. Bang! Kill. Tour return, as well as some of the writers from the show, for an anthology series. Instead of filling in the gaps between seasons, these stories are meant to flesh out the side characters of series and give them a chance to shine. It's…
This is the penultimate issue of Task Force Z. Over the course of the series, the story has been declining in quality, to a point that I’m not entirely sure anymore what Rosenberg is trying to tell us. There is no strong narrative focus anymore as we have been given cliffhangers that feel random; character…
Today’s issue of Luke Fox begins with…oh wait, excuse me, let me restart. Ok, Today’s issue of Harley Quinn begins with Luke Fox running from the monster of his own creation. He has a lot of self-reflection on what has led him to this moment. It leads him to find an old, hidden lab of…
In the latest issue of DC: Mech, the human race seeks salvation from evil space invaders in the form of giant mech suits. However, Earth’s heroes brawl among themselves when one spaceman decides to offer his help. The story starts with the introduction of three new characters. Firstly, pilots John Stewart and Hal Jordan become…
Last month Ram V began his run on Detective Comics by plunging Batman into a strange new case involving ancient artifacts and people turning into monsters all while surrounding it in an operatic tone. This month he works to further those mysteries, and the personal questions he's challenged Batman with. Much like the previous…
After only 17 issues Joshua Williamson’s Robin comes to an end this month. And I have some thoughts on the ending, so let’s get right in. To start with, this does not feel like the end of a series. None of the last couple issues leading up to it have had that feeling, and honestly…
Well, here we are with the penultimate issue of Justice League vs. the Legion of Super-Heroes. Last we saw them, the heroes were still talking about how dangerous the Great Darkness is. Will they finally take action, you ask? Of course not. Where did you get a crazy idea like that? I have such a…
Boy, this is something else. Less than a month later and this story is already complete. I’m still marveling. A two issue series! Big pat on the back to everyone involved. More two issue comics, please! But I digress, for I must now talk about the story within. We pick up this week with a…
We have reached the halfway point. Superman is still missing and Batman is now teamed up with Lex Luthor to try and put a stop to the alien threat. I’ve made it very clear how I’ve felt about this comic so far and as you can imagine, I was dreading this review. The last issue…
While I haven’t been loving the main Dark Crisis event, I’ve certainly had a better experience with it than Nick (check out his latest review) and I think many of the tie-ins have actually been great! Dark Crisis: Young Justice, however, has stood out as easily the worst part of the event thus far. It…
Okay. I'm gonna be honest. I already had thoughts about this back when it was announced. Mostly thoughts of "oh god no", "boy they sure want to milk The Killing Joke for all it's worth, huh?", and "oh god please no why are you making The Riddler kill people why oh god oh god." The Riddler is…
I really enjoyed last month’s issue and thought it was the best of the run so far. The one unresolved plot thread, however, is Robin’s disappearance as he got lost in time during his and Supergirl’s time-traveling adventure. This issue is a one-shot that’s meant to address what’s happened to Robin, and to have Batman…
Nightwing #95 is a shining example of playing into the strengths of the superhero comic medium. There’s a healthy dose of high stakes action and fun cameos, while still maintaining the series’ emotional integrity. Tom Taylor’s script make this delicate balance look effortless, as do Bruno Redondo’s exquisite pencils. Taylor’s latest scripts deliver a high…
Catwoman #46 is an emotionally resonant, if not haphazardly plotted chapter that prioritizes Selina’s understanding of herself, particularly in regards to her romantic relationships. The core narrative is underwhelming at this point as it features villains without an ounce of true intimidation. Nonetheless, Tini Howard’s angle on Selina is compelling and Sami Basri’s pencils deliver…
The fear left in the wake of nuclear destruction puts the “F” in All-Out War. However, the rag tag group of survivors have no time to grieve their losses. The remaining Nightlight members are instead exposed and forced onto the front lines. In the continued monochromatic adventures of All-Out War #2, we take on the…
