Greg Pak and Jae Lee Launch New “Batman/Superman”

By | Feb 21, 2013 | News

Remember “Superman/Batman?” That was a fun comic. Launched by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness (responsible for this week’s wonderful “Nova”), the book eventually featured different creative teams offering fun, short and sweet team-ups between DC’s two mightiest heroes. It was definitely a fun title to read along with. Now DC is bringing it back (as […]

Review: Nova #1

By | Feb 21, 2013 | Reviews

I’ll admit right off the bat that I was one of those people who always used to talk about how great Marvel Cosmic was and how amazing Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning’s work was. That said? “Nova” didn’t ever do much for me. At least, not in comparison with the other major space cop book […]

Review: Justice League of America #1

By | Feb 21, 2013 | Reviews

It goes without saying that Geoff Johns’ initial foray into the Justice League was found wanting by many DC fans. Until very recently, “Justice League” has failed to capture the strong character moments that Johns built his name on a decade ago in books like “JSA,” “Teen Titans,” and “The Flash.” Johns gets a second […]

Review: Action Comics #17

By | Feb 21, 2013 | Reviews

Grant Morrison’s run on “Action Comics” hasn’t had story arcs. Hell, before this issue showed up, it was hard to know if the entire run would have an “arc” at all. Instead, it’s had a myriad of plot devices and stand alone issues that didn’t look like they could possibly come together: The villain from […]

Review: Hellblazer #300

By | Feb 21, 2013 | Reviews

I don’t think you get any more “end of an era” than the final issue of “Hellblazer.” Sorry, DC, but even if you have someone like Jeff Lemire writing “Constantine” I won’t be interested if he can’t give the finger to the devil and drop the C bomb. Until then, though, we have this finale […]

Review: Alpha: Big Time #1

Keep reading for a spoiler-free discussion of the first issue. Written by Joshua Hale Fialkov Illustrated by Nuno Plati From the pages of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, […]

Review: Strange Nation #1

By | Feb 21, 2013 | Reviews

There’s nothing like a bit of inspired lunacy to get a series started off right, and that’s exactly what you get in “Strange Nation” #1. This first chapter of a four-issue miniseries published by Action Lab Comics is all set to premiere at Emerald City Comic-Con, and comes highly recommended from us. Seriously: gorilla-headed politicians […]

Vertigo Announces Two New Fables Hardcovers

By | Feb 21, 2013 | News

Because “Fables” is the single most profitable Vertigo title right now (and, well, one of the few left), it looks like there are still plans to bank on the success of the series as announced at USA Today. The first is a “Fables” encyclopedia compiled by Jess Nevins, who does those wonderful “League of Extraordinary […]
