Review: Batman #19

By | Apr 13, 2013 | Reviews

At first glance, it appears that “Batman” #19 is a typical cape and cowl adventure, boasting battles, mystery, and mistaken identity; but it is also a complex examination of the ways that loss and mourning can deteriorate humanity.

The latest tie-in issue, “Ultron” #1AU, has a strong concept that’s extremely relevant to the event (despite the issues’ absurd naming convention). However, much like the event series that spawned it, “Ultron” #1AU is packed with […]

Review: Saucer Country #14

By | Apr 12, 2013 | Reviews

Adding another notch in Vertigo’s coffin, “Saucer Country” was cancelled prematurely, long before it could reach it’s intended ending. There will be more, potentially soon, but as it stands, should you even want to come back? Written by Paul Cornell Illustrated by Ryan Kelly Arcadia finally learns the “truth” about the alien invasion—but what she […]
