By | Aug 24, 2022 | Reviews

At long last, Morpheus makes his decision on who shall receive the coveted key to Hell.  Or does he? Hell will exist once more, but in a form much different than when we first saw it.  Or will it? Written by Neil Gaiman Penciled by Kelley Jones Inked by Dick Giordano Colored by Daniel Vozzo […]

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero

By | Aug 23, 2022 | Movies, Reviews

The Dragon Ball Super anime, movies, and manga have almost entirely focused on Goku and Vegeta, to the point where they’ve completely left the other characters behind in terms of plot and power level. But now, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero turns the focus to other characters, primarily Gohan and Piccolo, letting us catch up […]

“Codename: Sailor V” #9-16

By | Aug 22, 2022 | Reviews

Welcome to today’s Summer Comics Binge of the “Sailor Moon” manga, concluding our look at the prequel “Codename: Sailor V.” Do Minako Aino and Artemis’s goofy adventures get more serious as they approach the timeframe of their operatic sister series? Yes, but only slightly: the second half introduces a Tuxedo Mask-esque love interest for Mina […]

“A-Next” #11

By | Aug 20, 2022 | Reviews

The late nineties of superhero comics have always been such a fascinating wild west to me. I know so little about this period that is building off the industry’s most significant recession. With so few eyes drawn to it, it’s ripe for uncovering fascinating hidden gems or unreadable stinkers. This year I’ve dug up the […]

“Batman: One Bad Day – The Riddler” #1

By | Aug 19, 2022 | Reviews

The Joker once claimed that all it takes is “one bad day” to turn a man into him. That’s a claim that’s been debated and debunked frequently (even in “The Killing Joke” itself, when Gordon refused to break), but does it extend to Batman’s villains? Tom King and Mitch Gerads are setting out to explore […]

“Squadron Supreme” #11

By | Aug 18, 2022 | Reviews

As we dive into the penultimate issue of “Squadron Supreme,” I kind of regret not keeping a running total of Squadron members who left the team, either by death or choice. But turns out, I didn’t need to. Four members have resigned for moral reasons. Four members, including two rehabilitated (mechanically) villains, have died. And […]

“Ms. Marvel & Moon Knight” #1

By | Aug 18, 2022 | Reviews

There’s something that works about pairing a plucky teen hero with a dark, brooding vigilante loner. It’s the fun juxtaposition of fun enthusiasm of adolescent heroics against the jaded and world-weary life of a person who’s been doing this for a while (or, at the very least, has seen the darker side of the world.)

“Space Story”

By | Aug 16, 2022 | Reviews

After being separated by chance and circumstances outside their control, a family desperately tries to reunite. This simple premise is at the heart of “Space Story” by Fiona Ostby (West Margin Press), which takes place on earth and just beyond it, in a time period that’s not specified but that doesn’t seem too far off.

Welcome back to the Summer Comics Binge of Naoko Takeuchi’s “Sailor Moon,” today we’re looking at the first half of the prequel “Codename: Sailor V,” which we feel comfortable calling a prequel even though it debuted before its sister title on August 3, 1991, since it was released quarterly alongside it, and concluded afterwards on […]

Some Kind of Suicide Squad: “Blaze”

By | Aug 14, 2022 | Reviews

We’re taking a break from digging for artifacts for a while to return to Some Kind of Suicide Squad. Originally when I did this last year there was supposed to be two more entries, the Black Label Suicide Squad minis “Get Joker” and hopefully “Blaze” and then for various pipeline delivery reasons they kept getting […]

“Batman” #600-602

By | Aug 12, 2022 | Reviews

I have to keep reminding myself that “Batman” #600 was published 20 years ago. 2002 just doesn’t feel like 20 years past. I wonder if 2002 readers felt the same way about 1982, which seems like a whole different era to me. Or if Batman in 2002 was so vastly different that it barely registered.
