I’m really starting to get into this series. Yes, I’ve critiqued previous issues and didn’t always think that everything worked, but I’ll say up front that this is my favorite issue from this series yet. It feels like the creative team’s finding its footing, and the result is a solid and super entertaining conclusion to…
I’ve certainly been enjoying this series, even though there was plenty to critique in the previous issues. While the character work and artwork have been solid, I think the story’s main villain has been underdeveloped. Seeing as this series’ second arc will start soon, the creative team will have to work really hard to establish…
The first two issues of this series have been fun, but not without flaws. I think that the creative team has an interesting angle and I think that the story, as it’s unfolding, is very entertaining. Clearly the creative team is trying to give us bang for our buck by packing each issue with adventure…
Last month’s issue #1 was pretty good, and especially Mora and Bonvillain’s art was incredible. The writing rambled a little bit, though, even if it was solid for the most part. Either way, the creative team can take the story in several directions after their first issue, so hopefully it will stay good. Let’s have…
I was pretty sad when Yang and Reis’ excellent run on Batman/Superman got canceled, and I highly recommend that you pick up the hardcover that collects their entire story: “The Archive of Worlds.” However, when DC announced that Waid and Mora would relaunch the title with a new #1, I was definitely intrigued. We had…
This is truly the final issue. No more one-shots or annuals after this. The series, from issue #16 to the annual, has been absolutely incredible. It’s been fun, comedic, heartwarming, thrilling and, above all, very creative and inspired! So what about this final issue? Is it still good? Let’s have a look. Okay. Yes. Of…
Yes, the main story from Yang and Reis’ run ended in issue #21, but we haven’t seen the last of the Superman, Batman and Robin from the Archive of Worlds! Their stories continue in this annual, and I can say upfront that if you’ve enjoyed Yang’s run so far, you’re going to want to pick…
Here we are. The conclusion to Yang and Reis’ story. Yes, there will be one more issue after this as well as an annual, so this series isn’t quite over yet, but this is indeed the conclusion to the story that started in issue #16. I don’t want this series to end. I don’t want…
All right, folks, Reis is back on art duties! Look, I’ve been singing this book’s praises since the start of this arc, and I’m going to continue doing just that in this review. So let’s just get right into it! Of all the DC books that I’ve been reading, this one is easily the most…
I’m sad and disappointed. I’ve been reviewing this title since #1, and it’s no secret that I’ve been very critical of the series during the previous writer’s run. Bluntly put, I thought the previous run was just plain bad. Then Future State happened, and Yang took over as the writer. I had never read Yang’s…
The previous two Batman/Superman issues are outstanding comics. On the one hand, it’s great when a creative team starts out strong. On the other hand, there lies a great challenge in this, because the team has set a high bar for themselves. Will they be able to keep up the level of quality? Let’s have…
This is a great comic! Among the many different books on stands these days, Batman/Superman certainly stands out. While it’s too early to judge the overall quality of the current arc, seeing as this is only the second chapter and more will follow, I am totally on board for now, and I appreciate that Yang…
I’ve been looking forward to this. Yang seems like a good writer, and of course Reis is one of DC’s top artists. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this, but as soon as I opened up my review copy and saw the art, I set everything aside to see what this one’s all…
I haven’t been the biggest fan of Williamson’s Batman/Superman run, to say the least. To me, this title has been problematic since #1. This is Williamson’s final issue, though, and despite not really enjoying the series so far, I have been hoping that he could deliver a fun conclusion to his run. Has he managed…
Batman and Superman created an AI program to stop villains, but for some reason this program decided that in order to figure out how to stop them, it would have to become a villain itself. It has created a Composite Superman/Batman robot to accomplish this goal, and our heroes have to find a way to…
In the previous issue, Batwoman and Steel found out that Batman and Superman had been captured by a hostile computer program. Despite Batman’s warnings and orders to stay put and not follow him and Superman, Batwoman and Steel hopped into a spaceship and began to track down the World’s Finest duo. Even though I didn’t…
I’m having mixed feelings about this annual. I like the opening scene: we see two fifth dimensional imp kids playing with Batman and Superman action figures, arguing about which of these two heroes would win in a fight. Mxyzptlk and Bat-Mite show up to stop the kids from arguing. The artwork is quite good during…
This is the first issue of the new “Planet Brainiac” arc in Batman/Superman. For those who are looking to get into this series, this could be your jumping-on point. But the question is whether or not it’s going to be worth it, because, so far, this series hasn't been great. So let’s see what this…
This is the conclusion of the “Atomic” arc and, to be honest, I’m glad that it’s over. I haven’t been enjoying this title in general, but this arc in particular has been such a chore for me. So I’ll keep this review brief and to the point. Let’s have a look. First of all, there…
Last month’s opening chapter of the current Batman/Superman arc lacked focus and detail, and I thought it was a bit of a boring comic. Unfortunately, this issue, #10, is still suffering from problems that I’ve talked about in previous reviews. However, this time the two main problems are the over-reliance on exposition as well as…
