Wonder Woman #757 (Orlando, Merino, Cifuento, Fajardo Jr.) gets tripped up on its own attempted cleverness, resulting in a deux ex machina that causes the conclusion of “The Four Horsewomen” to not only fall flat, but not even be a conclusion at all.
DetailsSuperman #22
Superman #22 (Bendis, Maguire) sees the series return after the COVID-19 induced hiatus to deliver an anti-climactic finale to an otherwise extremely well-done arc in “The Truth”.
DetailsDark Knights: Death Metal #1 (Snyder, Capullo, Glapion, Plascencia) is more fun than a barrel of used death metal CDs. Big, fun, and utterly over the top, the fate of the DCU being at stake couldn’t possibly be a louder power chord!
DetailsLois Lane #11 (Rucka, Perkins, Troy) proves the creative team not only still has tricks up their sleeves, but have planned this series out to the Nth degree. Smart, engaging, uncompromising, and unwilling to pander to those unwilling to pay attention, this series is one anybody looking for intelligent comics should have on their pull sheet.
DetailsTo the Max #1-3
To the Max #1-3, the HBO Max and DC Comics, is available for free on Comixology and other platforms, yet still somehow feels overpriced.
DetailsSwamp Thing: New Roots #7
These DC Digital Firsts have struggled to overcome the rather mundane approach to storytelling and Swamp Thing: New Roots #7 (Hester, Mandrake, Hi-Fi, Sharpe) just fell into that same pitfall. It’s not a bad book, it’s just not one you will remember for long after reading, and that speaks to the untapped potential these books have.
DetailsJohn Constantine: Hellblazer #6
John Constantine: Hellblazer #6 (Spurrier, Campbell, Bellaire) is visually terrifying with writing so relevant that it is even scarier. Spurrier, Campbell, and Bellaire offer a great Constantine issue that is meant to be read this very moment.
DetailsHarley Quinn: Make ‘Em Laugh #1
Harley Quinn: Make ‘Em Laugh #1 (Russell, Braga, Guerrero, Dillon) is a visual treat full of humor, overt insanity and wacky irreverence. As Gotham’s most notorious villains continue to arrive, it quickly becomes easy to see that no one can steal the show from Harley.
DetailsSHAZAM #12
SHAZAM #12 (Loveness, Peterson) is a stand alone fill-in issue that at first feels unwelcome but actually turns out to be a lovely tale in the greater story of Billy Batson.
DetailsThe Flash #755 (Williamson, Sandoval, Tarragona, Prianto) brings “Flash Age” to a rip-roaring conclusion, offering twists, turns, and one genuine shock that are sure to bring readers back for more! This is the best this title has been in ages – don’t miss out!
DetailsWonder Woman #756 (Orlando, Merino, Cifuente, Fajardo Jr.) goes a few steps beyond typical superhero punch-’em-ups by layering the drama with moral and philosophical underpinnings that have no easy answers. While not a game changer by any means, this issue definitely stands above standard superhero fare!
DetailsJustice League #46
Justice League #46 (Venditti, Xermanico): the team advances the assault on Tartarus to free Jim Corrigan, so the Spectre will once more be under control! Don’t miss out on the action!
