“A-Next” #7

By | Jul 23, 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” #591-593

By | Jul 22, 2022 | Reviews

You know? I’m starting to understand why so many DC fans were frustrated with the company in the early 2000s. Sure we got new villains and interesting status quos but we also have the death of the editorial box and suddenly aliens.

“Batman” #588-590

By | Jul 15, 2022 | Reviews

Not only does this string of “Batman” issues have more Bruce Wayne than I’ve seen in a while but it also has a critical mass of Matches Malone! It also has Bruce in blackface for a panel which is, to put it mildly, YIKES.

“Squadron Supreme” #6

By | Jul 14, 2022 | Reviews

Issue #5 was sort of a departure for the series. If it wasn’t for the heroes having their own brainwashing machine, and that brainwashing machine being the catalyst for the entire plot for the issue, it would have felt like any other bronze age Marvel book. Villains show up. They try to use the heroes’ […]
