Dark Nights: Death Metal #4
Dark Nights: Death Metal #4 ( @Ssnyder1835 @GregCapullo @jonathanglapion) finds itself spinning its wheels a bit narratively when it should be charging ahead full-speed. It isn’t a bad issue per se, but it does feel a bit like the story is stuck in neutral. #dccomics
DetailsYoung Justice #19
Young Justice #19 is about Cassandra Sandsmark, the granddaughter of Zeus and protege of Wonder Woman, known on earth on Wonder Girl.
DetailsFor better or worse, Justice League #54 (Williamson, Xermanico, Fajardo Jr., Napolitano) continues the “Doom Metal” story, but offers little in the way of originality despite some strong character beats. The art is great and suits the tale, but readers might find themselves feeling more ho-hum than blown away.
DetailsLegend of the Swamp Thing Halloween Spectacular
#DCcomics Legend of the Swamp Thing Halloween Spectacular (@therightram, @definitelyvita, @phillipkjohnson, and many more) offers up a surprisingly great, weighty set of tales rooted in sorrow and hope.
DetailsAmerican Vampire 1976 #1
American Vampire is one of those titles that fans begged for more and now with this conclusion they’re getting their wish and after reading this issue I’m happy to say – get excited! @Ssnyder1835 @rafaalbuquerque
DetailsBatman #100
Batman #100 (#DCComics @JamestheFourth @JorgeJimenezArt @GuillemMarch @carlopagulayan @DannyMiki_ @Tomeu_morey @ClaytonCowles) brings “The Joker War” to a close and ushers in a whole new era for Batman!
DetailsWonder Woman 1984 #1
Wonder Woman 1984 #1 (Obrota, Simonson, Blevins, Buccellato, Lanham) is a straightforward, easy to follow tale that plays into the traits that the onscreen version of Diana that fans of the film know and love.
DetailsWonder Woman #763
With Wonder Woman #763 (@MarikoTamaki, @CarloBarberi, @SantorelliMatt, @loquesunalex, @droog811), a new and interesting status quo is set and ready to be explored.
DetailsJohn Constantine: Hellblazer #10
John Constantine: Hellblazer #10 (@sispurrier @matiasbergara @adityab @DCComics) is a stunning issue on every level. Constantine is faced with his greatest and most destructive challenge: his future self. After this issue, nothing can be the same. The bottom line is this isn’t a series you should read; it’s a series you need to read.
DetailsBatgirl #49
Batgirl #49’s (Castellucci, Rodriguez, Bellaire) rushed and anticlimactic ending (as mandated by an editorial cancellation) knocks down what could have been an amazing five-issue arc if it needed to be. The concept is solid, but time – and cancellation – wait for no man. Or girl.
DetailsBatman/The Joker: War Zone #1
Batman/The Joker: War Zone #1 delivers a rare instance of a one-shot, event tie-in that is excellent from start to finish and important to not only the story but the future of the Bat-verse! From @DCComics @JamesTheFourth @Williamson_Josh @DipsOff @GuillemMarch @LauraBraga_rt and more!
DetailsAlthough not as earth-shattering as its opening installment, Batman: Three Jokers #2 ( @geoffjohns @JasonFabok @bdanderson13 rob leigh) is nonetheless a master class in sequential storytelling thanks to jaw-droppingly compelling visuals. The real weight, though, isn’t the inherent mystery but rather in the emotional fallout.
