Review: Talon #0

By | Sep 28, 2012 | Reviews

Let’s look at the numbers: this is the fourth ‘Third Wave’ book to be released this month, the thirteenth book in the “Batman” group of books, the third DCnU book to be at least co-plotted by Scott Snyder, and the first book since the New 52 began to introduce a new creation as the main […]

Review: Justice League Dark #0

By | Sep 28, 2012 | Reviews

The “Dark” line of DC Comics’ New 52 has arguably been the strongest set of titles in the relaunch from a critical standpoint. There’s just so much to be gained from allowing the weird comics of the Vertigo imprint to mingle in the mainstream. So here we are in Zero Month, a perfect chance to […]

Art of the Week (Week of 9/28/2012)

By | Sep 28, 2012 | Columns

For this week’s Art Feature, it’s an extremely DC Heavy post, that’s for sure. Out of the eleven posts, six are directly DC related, only one is Marvel, and the rest are either indie-related, movie related or both! There’s also a bit of historical fantasy, which brings me to the featured piece from Michael Walsh! […]

Review: Dancer #5

By | Sep 28, 2012 | Reviews

“Dancer” is one of those miniseries that almost seems too good to be true. Well-paced, smart, full of action, romantic in sort of a subtle and sad way, it plays out like a spy movie from the 1960s but without a vestige of cheese. Now that it’s reached its last issue, we’ve got one beautiful […]

Review: The Punisher #16

By | Sep 28, 2012 | Reviews

Greg Rucka’s “Punisher” ongoing comes to an end after only 16 issues. And within these 16 issues was an already classic tale in the Punisher mythos that did a lot to advance a character that has been around since 1974. That’s not easy, but it’s even harder to stick the landing. Did Rucka and Checchetto […]

Review: Red Lanterns #0

By | Sep 28, 2012 | Reviews

“Red Lanterns” was a book I was excited to try when the New 52 began last September, and it was a disappointment until I dropped it at issue 5. I’m still reading two other Lantern books, and the ‘Third Army’ crossover and a zero issue prompted me to give it another shot. Written by Peter […]
