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 […]

The comic version is written by Ryan North, with art usually done by Shelli Paroline and Braden Lamb (with talented up-and-comer Mike Holmes filling […]

Review: Batman Incorporated #0

By | Sep 27, 2012 | Reviews

So, Damian Wayne is eleven years old. And Batman met Talia al Ghul when? And he’s fighting a globe-trotting war with Leviathan at roughly the same time he took on the Court of Owls? Continuity nuts, get your aspirin out. The rest of you? Just strap in and enjoy an okay comic, dammit. Written by […]

Review: Happy! #1

By | Sep 27, 2012 | Reviews

When the name involved is as big as Morrison’s — and when the project in question is the first creator-owned endeavour in a while — the expectations for a new miniseries are bound to be high. And while what Morrison and Robertson put forth in “Happy!” may not suit all tastes, it’s certainly impressive, exhibiting […]

Review: Aquaman #0

By | Sep 27, 2012 | Reviews

Aquaman: the best character in company-owned comics that no one can seem to translate across to audiences in a positive manner that doesn’t rely on some weird gimmick. But hey, we’re on a break from the main story arc and their “cooler” “darker” Other League. It’s time to reintroduce Aquaman for the 2012 audience! Geoff […]
