DetailsJustice League Odyssey #19
Justice League Odyssey #19 (Abnett, Richards, Beredo) offers a well-balanced combination of seriousness and good ole fashioned fun. There is enough mystery surrounding Epoch that leaves the reader with no idea what is coming next. Only time will tell.
DetailsThe Last God #5
The Last God #5 (Johnson, Federici, Lopes, Prianto, Gho, Napolitano) brings the cruel realities of this epic turmoil to the forefront by blurring the lines between good and bad, showing that this is not just another epic high-fantasy story with a dark twist. It’s an expertly plotted and fleshed out world thriving with trials and tribulations that transcend time itself.
DetailsSuperman: Villains #1
Superman: Villains #1 (Bendis) takes an insightful look at the reactions of various Superman villains’ to the revelation of his secret identity.
DetailsBatgirl #44
Batgirl #44 (Castellucci, Tormey, Sotomayer, Andworld Design) might be filled with beautifully illustrated epic high-fantasy dragons and magical swords, but it is a story about the fears of love through and through, taking readers on an emotional roller coaster that ends with a dramatic twist that no one will see coming.
DetailsJustice League #42
Justice League #42 (Venditti, Lopresti) are producing a consistently classic Justice League story that is fun but feels like it lacks depth.
DetailsBatman Vs. Ra’s Al Ghul #4
Batman Vs. Ra’s Al Ghul #4 (Adams, Robins) is the best issue since #1, and by tying together some of the threads, it improves the story featured in the two issues that preceded it.
DetailsWonder Woman #752 (Orlando, Raynor, Fajardo Jr.) attempts to have some lofty things to say about Wonder Woman’s moral code in combat, but winds up being an underwhelming outing overall.
DetailsBatman #90
Batman #90 (Tynion, Jimenez) takes a look into the origins of The Designer and their link to the current crimes occuring in Gotham.
DetailsSupergirl #39
Supergirl #39 (Houser, Stott, Peter): For a series that came back with a good purpose, it’s lost its direction by being caught between two event stories while not capitalizing on either.
DetailsYear of the Villain: Hell Arisen #3
All things taken equally, Year of the Villain: Hell Arisen #3 (Tynion IV, Epting, Fernandez, Filardi) isn’t a bad comic per se. But it is a step back from the slam-bang fisticuffs of previous installments. There’s some great interplay between Joker and Lex, and the table is set for the (supposedly) final throwdown with the Batman Who Laughs. It’s a table-setting issue, which is fine, but it is dragged down by inconsistent art. It’s a table-setting issue, which is fine, but it is dragged down by inconsistent art.
DetailsBatman/Superman #7
Batman/Superman #7 (Williamson, Derington, McCraig, Hill) was a lot of fun and I’m excited for what the next few issues will bring, especially when titans like Ra’s al Ghul and Zod clash!
