4 on World's Finest: Teen Titans #6 reviewIt's the last issue of this miniseries, and the Titans are gearing up to face their greatest foe yet: themselves! Can Robin pull the team together in time to stop the Terror Titans and save the future of superhero-dom as we know it? Let's dive in and find out! When there's trouble... This was a…
Waid’s World’s Finest comics have been a stellar exercise in modernizing what we love about the old days. All the bright, flashy, simple costumes have been updated to reflect more modern sensibilities; the stories are as campy and goofy as we all know and loved, but with deeper, more fleshed out characters reminiscent of current…
Howdy, Bat-fans! We're back again with one of the best comics coming out of DC these days, and I really can't stress enough how much I love it. After the action-packed antics of the last few issues, it's time to slow down and get a little slice-of-life stuff in. Let's check in on our heroes…
Hey there, Bat-fans! As many of you may know, I’m a huge fan of Mark Waid’s work. My first encounter with him was his Legion of Super-Heroes run when I was 11, during my initial period of obsession with the team, and I fell head over heels for his writing. Since then, I’ve read countless more of his…
My god… Bat-fans? Is that you? How did you make it to my doomsday bunker? After all these years… What’s that? Months? It’s only been two months? I see… Well, is Geoff Johns at least done putting out JSA? No? One issue? Out today? Welp. Okay then Was it worth the wait? No. Of course…
Oh, hey there, Bat-fans! Nice to see you! I've been on a sort of mini vacation. You see, I figured out a sweet way to do way less review work than I normally would! It's a genius plan, really. I wait, say, about two months, and then come back to do a double review! Sort…
It's the third issue of Geoff Johns' return to the golden age, and things are... boy are they! I've already spoken a bit about my frustrations with Johns' work, so I won't subject you to further rants about how compulsively safe and rooted in the past it is. Instead, I'll just show you a screenshot…
Batman vs. Robin #5 wraps up the series with a suitable amount of heart and bombast, even if the ultimate result feels familiar. While reading the previous Lazarus Planet issues isn’t required, some may find themselves a little lost if they only stuck to this mainline series. Mark Waid’s script does a decent job of…
I'll be honest. I used to be a MASSIVE fan of Geoff Johns' work. When I was a kid reading his comics, something about that nostalgic resurgence of all the great Silver Age heroes, the ones I saw watching Super Friends growing up, rather than the confusing new characters I'd never heard of (Who's Blue…
Catwoman #45 brings the Bat family into the series in a major way with mixed results. While Selina and Bruce’s on again off again relationship has never truly left the series, here Tim, Stephanie, Cassandra, and even Dick Grayson all make appearances. These interactions inject some nuance into Selina’s current headspace, but the narrative stumbles…
You guys ever just read an issue of a comic and remember why you started reading that book in the first place? That was me with Urban Legends #17. This book is nothing but pure, wacky team-up fun, and I LOVE it. It might be because I've been watching a lot of Brave and the Bold recently, but I…
Catwoman #44 has moments of inspiration, primarily fueled by Bengal’s visual style and thrilling car chase sequences. However, Tini Howard’s script struggles to navigate the testy relationship between Selina and Harley Quinn, creating arguments based on misconceptions that feel forced, which in the end delivers an unsatisfying ending to this two part journey. Starting with…
Catwoman #43 probably isn’t what most readers are expecting after Tini Howard and Nico Leon’s first arc on the series. Bengal takes over on art duties this time around and does a good job with what he’s given by Howard’s script. However, there’s such a sharp shift in tone and stakes that it almost feels…
Catwoman #34 more than lives up to the high expectations last month’s cliffhanger set for it. Ram V’s script is excellently paced, mature in its approach to Selina’s relationship with Bruce, and features excellent action that is equal parts thrilling and clever. There’s been nary a misstep in this series and the momentum keeps rolling.…
Catwoman #33 picks the pace right back up on a narrative front, effortlessly regaining its high stakes after two issues of backstory. That’s not to say the series ever dipped, but Ram V’s script does appear to know it’s time to ramp up again given the sheer amount of chaos in this month’s issue. Fernando…
Catwoman #32 takes a slight detour from the main narrative to examine Selina Kyle’s influence on those who have come in contact with her. While it’s risky to essentially slip a one-shot in the middle of a story arc, Ram V’s breakdown of Selina is captivating and guest artist Evan Cagle’s pencils are stunning. Any…
Catwoman #31 brings the series back to a heist oriented storyline, but Ram V’s script delivers these familiar goods in a stylish package. Fernando Blanco is allowed to stretch his comedic muscles more than usual, whether it be through taking jabs at high society or the sly glances Selina exchanges with her allies right before…
Catwoman #30 is a set up issue, but Ram V’s script makes sure to dole out the necessary exposition with ample style. While this month’s issue lacks the sheer amount of action and stakes of the previous chapter, artist Fernando Blanco takes full advantage of the exciting moments he’s afforded and supplies more than enough…
