Action Comics #1016
Action Comics #1016 (Bendis, Kudranski, Anderson) hits a sweet spot of action and fun. Concurrent with Event Leviathan, Action Comics is the much needed break from the bleak seriousness of the event. Readers will be pleased to see that Bendis is having fun while still being at the top of his game. Who doesn’t love a funny Batman?
DetailsYear of the Villain Black Adam #1
Not the best of the Year of the Villain specials, but it’s not all bad. If you’re a hardcore Shazam fan, you’ll enjoy this book. (Jenkins, Miranda)
DetailsPut Out the Light!
Teen Titans #35 (Glass, Chang, Maiolo) brings the thunder as the team’s traitor is revealed! Will they ever be the same?!
DetailsFlash Forward #2
‘Flash Forward #2’ (Lobdell, Booth, Rapmund, Guerrero) dives further into the Multiverse but provides very little in terms of answers to Wally’s importance or a sense of direction.
DetailsSuperman #16
Witness the strange reunion and prompt separation of the Super Sons in Superman #16 (Bendis, LaFuente, Mounts, Sharpe).
DetailsJustice League #34
“Justice/Doom War” continues in Justice League #34 (Snyder, Tynion IV, Redondo, Porter, HI FI, Napolitano) as the past and the future missions conclude, refocusing the story on the present.
DetailsDetective Comics #1013
Detective Comics #1013 (Tomasi, Mahnke, Champagne, Alamy, Baron): I still have high hopes for the story, but this issue is best bought for the art alone.
DetailsSuperman Smashes the Klan
Superman Smashes the Klan #1 (Yang, Gurihiru) builds a credible world where outsiders and nationalists collide – with the Man of Steel in the middle!
DetailsHarley Quinn & Poison Ivy #2
Harley Quinn & Poison Ivy #2 (Houser, Melo, Morales, Hi-Fi) may not be reinventing the wheel, but not every book has to. This is a super fun issue with solid artwork that is well worth your money!
DetailsMetal Men #1
Metal Men #1 (DiDio, Davis, Delecki) proves the title characters aren’t just fluffy goof characters, bringing real humanity and pathos to these oddball robots!
DetailsFlash #80 (Williamson, Kolins) brings “Death and the Speed Force” to its penultimate chapter, as Zoom kidnaps Steadfast, the Black Flash moves in for the kill, and Kid Flash and Avery make a possibly fatal move against the Rogues!
DetailsNightwing #65
Nightwing #65 (Jurgens, Cliquet, Filardi) brings some Essential of Emeril-level spice that is much needed to the formerly bland story of “I’m not actually Nightwing despite acting exactly like Nightwing” Ric Grayson.
