3 on Justice League #43 reviewI wonder, how many of you guys play tabletop games? Dungeons and Dragons is, of course, the most popular of the bunch, though I’m also partial to Vampire: The Masquerade – if you can find a time to do it, they provide a fun mental exercise that puts you and a group of friends through…
I am not doing great. Last year, I had little going on in my life, and it was an endless source of frustration for someone just coming out of high school, and looking for direction. When I got this job, that was the first step to finding a routine I felt was both satisfying and…
God, these issues go by fast! I picked up this comic, ready to dive in and review its pros and cons, tackle the nuances of the book that might go unnoticed on first viewing… and the book was already over. You might attribute this to the book being really good, and an easy read that…
Okay, so I think I understand what Venditti is going for in this Justice League run. In this comic’s first 39 issues & change, Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV crafted an incredibly detailed mythos involving characters from within the DC Multiverse and beyond; as a result, many of the threats the League faced were…
With the beginning of Joker War, Generation One, Dark Nights: Death Metal and the Green Lantern 80th issue, DC has a busy month in May! Batman News in particular has a lot to cover, including a brand new series about... Man-Bat? Sure, why not! After enjoying a significant role in the pages of Justice League Dark, it seems that Kirk…
Alright, if you’ve come this far into my reviews, you should know EXACTLY what you’re about to get here. No? Okay, here’s a robot Ra's al Ghul being shot to smithereens by a random gangster. As an example. Really, what’s there to say about the writing and the art in this issue that hasn’t already…
It’s the end of Justice League #39. The team has lost a battle for the soul of the universe, and there looks to be little hope left for the future. In the eleventh hour, they are presented with one final option: a door to the salvation of reality itself. The Justice League, united in their…
Love is in the air in the DC Universe but those looking for a bit of romance in their superhero comics may want to look for other options than Crimes of Passion #1. Without any frame story, this years’ Valentine’s Day themed anthology lives and dies on the overall strength of its ten stories. While…
While Batman has always been a profitable character for DC Comics, 2019 has been particularly generous to the caped crusader. In a not-so-surprising announcement, Diamond Comic Distributors (the world's largest comic book distributor) has placed DC's wildly successful Detective Comics #1000 at the top of the sales charts for all of 2019! This marks the second…
It’s the year 2019. With the rise of the internet and the publicity that it allows, it’s easier than ever for us to fight – and easier than ever to be manipulated. In a world where the public doesn’t trust journalists, journalists don’t trust their employers, and the rich control the technology we use every…
I honestly think Neal Adams has created the perfect comic book. Oh, you think I’m joking? You think I’m trying to trick you into reading this so I can have some company in the psych ward? Not so. This book is – not exaggerating – my favourite of all the books I’ve had to…
Over the past forty or so years, there are three big names that helped change the perception that comics are just silly stories for kids. Fans knew that all along, of course, but these writers definitely showed that even the zaniest of comic characters could have true literary merit. They are Alan Moore, Grant Morrison,…
My final comic review for the week is the follow-up to Batman vs Ra’s al Ghul #1 by Neal Adams – which is, in and of itself a follow-up to his other recent works, such as Batman: Odyssey and Deadman. On one hand, it’s nice to be tackling a book this week that isn’t related…
Part of the charm of any horror anthology is having no idea whether or not the next short story will be a dud or a winner. From classics like Creepshow (both the movie and comic) to DC’s own yearly horror anthologies, there’s always fun to be had in not knowing what could happen next in…
I was only in New York for a few hours on Friday, but I saw plenty. And there may be nothing more exciting than this: I've already got two Mezco Batman figures, and another on preorder, so it goes without saying that I'll be adding this one to my collection. The suit might be a…
If I haven't said it before, then I will now: Insight Editions are quickly becoming one of my favorite book publishers. They're constantly putting out great content, be it interactive books for kids to collections of comic art to spotlights on comic creators. This October, they'll release what may be their best book yet when…
Arrow's days are numbered. With just 10 episodes left, the series that kicked off what we now call the Arrowverse is coming to a close. But these DC superhero shows are big business for the CW. Batwoman is starting this fall after a splash intro during last year's Elseworlds crossover. With Arrow on the way…
Batman was inducted into the Comic-Con Museum’s Character Hall of Fame at San Diego Comic-Con, and it was a party, let me tell you. I was fortunate enough to attend the induction ceremony, where the Museum had tons of great Batman items on display. From film props and costumes to playable video games to not…
Last night, Batman officially became the first inductee into the Comic-Con Museum Character Hall of Fame, and man was it a party. I had the privilege to attend the ceremony, and there was great food, cool guests (I met Batman!), and tons of amazing Batman paraphernalia on display. There were props and costumes from the…
When I think of superhero-themed furniture, I imagine little Batman and Spider-Man themed chairs for kids. I'm happy to collect superhero statues, but I couldn't think of a piece of furniture I'd want to own - until now. Gaming chair company SecretLab announced this week that it has partnered with DC and Warner Bros. to…
