Amethyst #3
Amethyst #3 (Reeder, Louise, Downie): A passing issue in the middle of a captivating story, but by itself not telling much and with some lacks in characterization and plot holes that make us want to place it with later issues to see where the story goes.
DetailsCatwoman 80th Anniversary 100 Page Super Spectacular #1
Join Comic Watch and DC Comics in saying a very happy, 8oth birthday to Catwoman with the Catwoman 80th Anniversary 100-page Super Spectacular!
DetailsHarley Quinn #73
Harley Quinn #73 (Humphries, Basri, Hi-Fi, Sharpe) is just another incredibly fun and heartfelt issue that capitalizes on all the best parts of the character, even if there are a few strange decisions (looking at you Booster)!
DetailsYoung Justice #15
Young Justice #15 (Bendis, Walker, Timms, Godlewski, Eltaeb, Abbot) is anything but kids stuff. A maturely written book about a teenage superhero team that features beautiful art and execution.
DetailsWonder 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.
