1 on Checkmate #2 ReviewAlmost all of my fears have been assuaged. Where Checkmate #1 was a bloated, oddly paced mess of setup and thread-hanging, the sophomore issue of this miniseries is nothing but pure character driven fun. I was absolutely worried that Bendis was going to take this new mini and use it as an outlet for more Event…
This week might have to involve a bit of "phoning it in", as they say. It's not that either Justice League or Justice League Dark have terrible instalments this week - in fact, both stories make clear efforts to progress the story and get their audiences excited for what's to come. That being said, I'm not all…
On the cover for Justice League #63, Black Adam and Naomi are despicted as standing back to back, concerned for their fates as the faces of the Justice League loom over them, casting judgment. The caption of the cover reads "Black Adam and Naomi ACCUSED", and it couldn't be more ominous as to what they've done in…
Checkmate is back! After the events of, well, Event Leviathan, the world is dominated by Mark Shaw, head of the Leviathan terrorist group, and it's up to the world's greatest detectives (bar you-know-who and a couple others) to stop him! I really enjoyed Leviathan Rising, and even though the actual event fell apart a bit,…
Okay. This was bound to happen sooner or later. Justice League has managed to avoid my ire for three generally decent issues, but that wasn't going to last forever. I would have liked it to last a little longer - but alas, issue #62 is the first of Bendis and Marquez's run that I've genuinely not…
In many ways, it's hard to believe we're only three issues into Brian Michael Bendis' run of Justice League. I can't say I'm complaining! Reviewing two Justice League comics a month wasn't my favourite thing to do when the books were only occasionally delivering an issue I genuinely really enjoyed. That said, there are downsides to this new…
Justice League: Prisms I remember when I started reading Scott Snyder’s Justice League, fresh off the heels of Dark Nights: Metal and No Justice. Honestly, the beginning of that book was one of the best openings to a team book I’d ever read: it established the team dynamic perfectly, set up an interesting and high-stakes…
Well, we knew this was going to happen sooner or later. Brian Michael Bendis entering the world of DC Comics was one of the biggest creative shakeups that the two companies have had in some time... though I can’t say I’m all for what DC got out of the deal. From Daredevil to Immortal Hulk,…
Leviathan Dawn’s mission is clear. It wants to bridge the gap between Event Leviathan and the upcoming Event Leviathan: Checkmate as it sifts through the fallout and sets things into motion so the series proper can hit the ground running. In that sense, Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev succeed with a tight script and great…
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…
With the way Event Leviathan ended, it was only a matter of time before a sequel was announced. Luckily, the wait is not much longer as Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev return for a follow up miniseries with Event Leviathan: Checkmate. Coming in April, the series reunites several characters from the first miniseries including…
Green Lantern and Green Arrow used to be one of the biggest partnerships in the DC universe. It's been a while since you've seen them together, but thanks to new statues from Iron Studios you'll be able to enjoy them any time you want. The statues are up for preorder now and are expected to…
I wasn’t expecting much from this issue, and as a stand-alone issue, I think it’s ok… But there are so many epic moments that happen here that I’m literally like, “Go Metal! Go Metal! Hey, Snyder! It’s yo’ birthday! Shake your bootay!” We’ve reached the fourth and final chapter of “Gotham Resistance,” and I honestly…
In this issue of Green Arrow, Ollie takes a trip to Gotham City! If you haven’t been keeping up with Green Arrow, you might find yourself intrigued by this week’s issue if you’re a Batman fan. The current arc, “Hard Traveling Hero” has Ollie trekking the U.S. in pursuit of the 9th Circle –…
Green Arrow #40 “Kingdom” Story by Andrew Kreisberg & Ben Sokolowski Script by Ben Sokolowski Pencils by Daniel Sampere Inks by Daniel Henriques Colors by Gabe Eltaeb Alright! We’re covering Green Arrow on Batman News! How about that? Clearly this isn’t a book we typically cover, but this issue features Batman, so we wanted to…
Diggle. If that name means anything to you then you're probably going to love every minute spent reading Green Arrow #25. It's a fantastic little glimpse at Ollie's first moments off the island and an even more wonderful introduction of a character who was first seen on the CW series "Arrow." Diggle made a brief…
