Batgirl #45
Batgirl #45 (Castellucci, Di Giandomenico, Bellaire, Andworld) is a book that just feels like it is a bit too by the numbers to truly succeed. There are some interesting elements, but hopefully everything is able to come together better in the following issues.
DetailsLegion of Super-Heroes #5
Legion of Super-Heroes #5 (Bendis, Sook Godlewski, von Grawbadger, Bellaire) finally starts to snap the series’ narrative into focus, as the past and present collide in some particularly intriguing ways.
DetailsJustice League Dark #21
Justice League Dark #21 (V, Tynion IV, Martinez Bueno, Chung, Leigh) is a strong continuation that maintains a fast pace while bringing in unique visuals to push this exciting story forward. Fans of JLD, don’t miss this one.
DetailsAnimal Man #5
Join us this Sunday Morning for a look back at Animal Man #5 (Morrison, Truog, Hazlewood) “The Coyote Gospel”, a meta exploration and purposeful diversion of popular superhero comics of its time. This one is a true classic!
DetailsLucifer #18
Lucifer #18 (Watters, Fiumara, McCaig) brings the hunt home and leaves the reader questioning which side Lucifer is on.
DetailsAmethyst #2
Amethyst #2 (Reeder, Downie) returns for another do-it-all issue by Reeder, but this time with a lot of more emotional narrative and some really adorable character moments.
DetailsAction Comics #1021
Action Comics #1021 (Bendis, Romita Jr., Janson, Anderson, Sharpe) is a crowded issue that concludes an arc that had already strayed away. A few fun action sequences save the issue, but not by much.
DetailsFlash #752 (Williamson, Porter, Hi-Fi) slows down just a hair and gives its protagonist some space to breathe… in Heaven? Things aren’t what they seem, but just because the story has swerved into new territory, doesn’t mean “Flash Age” should be missed!
DetailsEnough praise cannot be heaped on just how great the current Aquaman run is, and issue #58 (DeConnick, Mendonca, Fajardo Jr.) is no exception. Character-first, subtle, and with wholly gorgeous art, this book is quietly one of DC’s best right now.
DetailsHawkman #22
Hawkman #22 (Venditti, Pasarin, Albert, von Grawbadger): Truly, this whole saga of Hawkman is worth reading because of issues like this one.
DetailsAlthough normally a reliably entertaining title, Teen Titans #40 (Glass, Thompson, Pansica, Ferreira, Maiolo) chooses to play it far too safe and winds up being an exercise in banality instead. The art team saves it from being a complete wash, at least.
DetailsHe-Man & The Masters of the Multiverse #5
He-Man & The Masters of the Multiverse #5 (Seeley, Derenick, Yackey) is the BEST issue of the series, hands-down!!!
