All in DC Comics
Batman/Superman #1 // Review
While Batman/Superman may be essential reading for those following the metastory of the DC Universe, it has some work to do to justify its own existence.
Dial H for HERO #6 // Review
Dial H for HERO remains one of the most consistently entertaining titles DC has on the stands today.
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #2 // Review
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #2 is an ambitious comic, and its ambition pays off.
Superman Year One #2 // Review
Overall, Superman Year One #2 is slightly less offensive than the first issue; instead, it commits the even greater sin of being simply boring.
Year of the Villain: Black Mask #1 // Review
Year of the Villain: Black Mask #1 is a one-and-done comic done well.
Catwoman #14 // Review
A clean and simple motion and emotion explore some of Catwoman’s deeper emotions.
The Flash #76 // Review
This is the best this book has been in over a year!
Event Leviathan #3 // Review
The fully-painted art of Alex Maleev is the real star of Event Leviathan #3.
Harley Quinn #64 // Review
Fuses interpersonal drama with lighthearted fourth wall shattering multi-genre spoofery.
Lois Lane #2 // Review
It seems difficult to believe that Rucka, Perkins, et al can continue this momentum for ten more issues, but the first two indicate that Lois Lane will be an instant classic.
The Batman Who Laughs #7 // Review
Seven issues complete, and yet nothing has been accomplished.
The Green Lantern Annual #1 // Review
Grant Morrison and Giuseppe Camuncoli work together and deliver an excellent detour
Batman: Last Knight on Earth #2 // Review
Batman: Last Knight on Earth #2 is a great issue of comics, and is the crown jewel of DC’s meager offerings on this fifth week at the end of July. Highly recommended
Batgirl #37 // Review
Castellucci and DiGiandomenico handle the transition from the previous creative team quite deftly.
Batman Beyond #34 // Review
Jurgens keeps the action going in an issue the narrowly avoids living-up to the potential of the story.
Martian Manhunter #7 // Review
The messy grittiness of a police assault on a rural human trafficking outpost feels weird and stringy.
Dial H For HERO #5 // Review
Dial H for HERO continues to be a hidden gem of DC Comics’ current lineup, and possibly the most heartfelt of the uniformly fun Wonder Comics line. Highly recommended.
Action Comics # 1013
Lex Luthor makes some offers and the mystery of Leviathan deepens.
The Flash #74 // Review
No one can say this isn’t a fun story
