Some Kind of Suicide Squad: The Suicide Squad

By | Aug 28, 2022 | Reviews

If there’s one thing that is clear about watching Suicide Squad back-to-back with The Suicide Squad, the latter certainly feels like a James Gunn movie. Not to get side tracked into auteur theory, film is a complex and collaborative medium with hundreds of decesions made at all levels, but the biggest issue I have wiith […]

“A-Next” #12

By | Aug 27, 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.

“Batman” #606-607

By | Aug 26, 2022 | Reviews

The Squadron is deeply fractured, with its leader wielding almost limitless power as his insecurities eat him alive. […]

“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 […]
