Lightning has struck, my friends. The true comic event (that isn’t being pushed as an event) is here, and the wait has been well worth it! #spoilers Three Jokers is the most gorgeous and tight comic I’ve read in quite a while, but that’s to be expected when you pair Geoff Johns and Jason FabokContinue reading “Batman: Three Jokers (Book One)”

Spawn… he’s a pretty cool dude… kinda metal, if you get me. Here I thought he was the personal brain child of Todd MacFarlane, but I guess old Todd was his very own George Lucas that wanted his close buddies to reap in his creative success. Spawn #11 is a great show of it throughContinue reading “Spawn #11”

I recently bought some recent Superman arcs from the New 52/Rebirth era that I hadn’t read in full on account of cross-title event syndrome, Doomed being the biggest of the bunch. #spoilers At the time I’d only read the portions of this arc in the issues of Superman and Superman/Wonder Woman that I had beenContinue reading “Superman: Doomed”

I don’t know why it took me so long to finally read this one, but part of me is glad I waited it out now knowing that there’s two more volumes to dig in to. This is a near perfect crossover that reaches to the depths of my childhood. #spoilers Tl;dr – The Turtles, asContinue reading “Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”

Hope everyone is staying healthy and safe out there! While I’m picking up trades curbside I’m also going with these digital firsts that DC is putting out. We all gotta do our part and support this industry in any way we can so that it’ll thrive. Furthermore, I’ve seen people slam these digital firsts simplyContinue reading “Superman: Man of Tomorrow – Power Play”

With the presses temporarily on hold for new comics, I’ve taken the opportunity to grab some material I’ve been meaning to read and haven’t had the funds for. Blue Beetle, specifically Jaime Reyes, is a character that I’ve wanted to read more of since learning a little about him while playing Injustice 2, and IContinue reading “Blue Beetle: The More Things Change”

As I continue picking away at the old Avengers run, it starting to get juicier with each passing arc. This one in particular stood out for a number of reasons. #spoilers First off, amongst the return of Ultron, an entanglement of betrayal, SHIELD, and other noteworthy moments, this story introduces the Marvel Universe to …Continue reading “Avengers #66-68, the Return of Ultron”

It took me a while, but I finally made the leap to manga. I’ve watched a fair share of anime (my wife got me into it, so she really deserves the credit) and after a few years I decided to take a stab at its original written form. However, rather than reading material I’d alreadyContinue reading “Fairy Tail Vol. 1”

They’re back! Paul Dini and Alan Burnett bring back the series that is a cornerstone of most of our childhoods in a new digital-first series. Following the shutdown of most comic retailers in this unprecedented time, to be given this sweet taste of fresh nostalgia is a treasure. #spoilers As a digital-first book, it’s actuallyContinue reading “Batman: The Adventures Continue, Chapter One”

I love a good Two-Face story. In this (amongst others) there’s an element I’m not overly crazy about, but this issue got my brain turning a little. #spoilers The short of it. Two-Face has raised a two-sided cult following, one lead by Vice and the other by Versa (heh, classic), and utilizes them to layContinue reading “Detective Comics #1021”
