I genuinely don’t know what to think of the conclusion to Robert Venditti’s “Cold War” arc. I’ve sat with it a while, and I’m still not really sure about it. It’s not that the ending is particularly mind-boggling, or even particularly bad; really, this issue is about the same level of quality as the rest…
What do you guys like out of a Justice League story? I’m genuinely curious. Do you want a huge, sprawling adventure with high stakes and intense character drama? Do you want smaller stories with less pressure, allowing the characters to breathe? Do you prioritise any of these aspects in particular? What does the Justice League…
In Robert Venditti’s arc, Reign of the Supermen, I had a good time - but it was clear that I was questioning the purpose of the story, and why Venditti was dedicating his time on one of DC’s biggest books to write out an ultimately harmless and superfluous story. I liked it fine, but the…
Wrapping up a 7-year-long movie universe in only 90 minutes is a gargantuan task. There are bound to be missteps in the form of neglected characters, plot lines and a lot of shocking deaths that range from arbitrary to heartbreaking. But with a fast-paced storyline and great action to smooth over any rough edges, Justice…
I think one of the most interesting parts about my job so far has been discovering the nuances of pacing in a comic book. Twenty pages is, realistically, not a lot of space for a story to flourish. How many novels have you read that are twenty pages long? While we’ve seen some DC creators…
I 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…
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…
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…
DC and Warner Bros. have had a tough time at the box office. They've been making money, but have yet to make the same cultural impact that Marvel has made in theaters despite having the better-known cast of characters. But things have been changing lately. Wonder Woman is a good movie that did well at…
Diamond Select Toys call themselves "the nexus of comics and pop-culture," and that's pretty apt. If there's a nerdy property that you're interested in, they've probably got it covered, across one or several of their product lines. The Justice League film is one such property, with a line of Vinimates and Gallery PVC statues covering…
