I have been reading comics since I was eleven - over a quarter-century! I love them as an art form as well as the characters, and want to see them continue to grow as a respectable medium. It's my humble honor and privilege to act as editor-in-chief of Comic Watch!
SNEAK PEEK! #DCComics’ GREEN LANTERN #2, on sale 5/4/21! A Guardian lies dead, and suspects abound! Fortunately, fresh off her debut in Far Sector – JO MULLEIN is on the case! PLUS: What’s up with Teen Lantern, anyway? It’s all by @Thorne_Identity @dextersoy @MSantucciArt & more! #DCInfiniteFrontier
DetailsSNEAK PEEK! #DCCcomics’ Crime Syndicate #3 – on sale 5/4/21! Earth-3’s Crime Syndicate unites for the first time against the extraterrestrial menace of STARRO! PLUS: Alexander Luthor debuts! It’s all from @39aAndy #KieronMcKeown & @THEBRYANHITCH #DCInfiniteFrontier
DetailsX-Men Legends #3
X-Men Legends #3 (Simonsons, Workman, Martin) is nostalgia for its own sake, a nice callback for fans of this particular era but inessential reading otherwise. #Marvel #XMen
DetailsCommanders in Crisis book 1: The Action
Commanders in Crisis book 1 is a comic that trades in big ideas & comes out ahead. It isn’t afraid to go conceptually big, but never forgets the heart at the core of its tale. Check out the first trade today! #ImageComics @thesteveorlando @Tinto83Tinto
DetailsTeen Titans Academy #2
Teen Titans Academy #2 doubles down on both worldbuilding and mystery, as the Red X makes his first move. There is something for fans of every era of Titans to love in this book! @DCComics #DCInfiniteFrontier @iamtimsheridan @RafaSandoval75
DetailsFlash #769 (@spacekicker #DavidLaFuente @BrandonPeterson) doesn’t move the plot of “Blink of an Eye” forward much, but is a ridiculous amount of fun. The entire creative team is firing on all cylinders, making this a standout #DCInfiniteFrontier title!
DetailsJustice League #60 is a textbook, near-perfect example of how thematic elements can – and should – drive a story before action. @DCComics #DCInfiniteFrontier @BRIANMBENDIS @DavidMarquez @TBonvillain @therightram @Xermanico
DetailsThe Flash
The Flash ep 705, “Fear Me” is a fun, off-the-beaten-path outing that recalls the best of the show’s past. The entire cast shines, a new & different foe is introduced, & the storytelling is top-notch. #CW_TheFlash #TheCW #Flash
DetailsGeiger #1
Geiger #1 (Johns, Frank, Anderson) is a comic by a formerly unstoppable writer scraping the bottom of his personal creative barrel. It has nothing new to say, weak characterization, & an uninspired setting. On all artistic fronts, this is a comic to miss.
DetailsThough a tad too reliant on upping the body count for its own sake, Suicide Squad #2 (@rthompson1138 @edupansica Ferreira, Marcelo) effectively presents enough hook-worthy plot points to lure readers in and keep them around. #DCComics #DCInfiniteFrontier
DetailsSpider-Man: Spider’s Shadow #1 (of 4)
Expertly contrasting the expected sunniness of Spider-Man with a dark, foreboding, creeping horror undertone, Spider-Man: Spider’s Shadow #1 (@zdarksy @PasqualFerry @MDHollingsworth @JoeCaramagna) delivers on all expectations. #Marvel #SpiderMan
DetailsSupergirl
Supergirl s6 e1 “Rebirth” concludes last season’s many subplots, and sets the show up for its final season! The Girl of Steel has seldom looked better! #TheCW @TheCWSupergirl @MelissaBenoist @chy_leigh @NicoleAMaines @DavidHarewood @jesserath @MrJonCryer #Supergirl
