Comic Book Review: Justice League Annual #1
It’s annual time for the Justice League! This is already a pretty big book, so what do you do to turn up the heat? You go even bigger! The only way to do that is to use the advantage of an annual being a longer issue than...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #35
What’s happening right now takes sibling rivalry to the next level. In a world where fantasy and the real world clash, this is what you get when one brother is trying so hard to destroy the other. As I said last month, mo...
Comic Book Review: Justice League Dark #6
Who would have thought that Bobo was hiding such a big secret from his friends? For a guy with his kind of attitude, it surely knocks him down a peg to be faced with the responsibility that he neglected. Regardless, a perfect e...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #34
Birthright #33 gave us one hell of a twist when we went from such an endearing moment shared between the rest of the family, to the gutwrenching discovery that they were too late to save Brennan from whatever plans that Kallist...
Comic Book Review: Justice League Dark #5
What I have come to love about Justice League Dark is how much you can’t expect from this series. From the minute this book was announced with the new iteration of the team, I didn’t know where the end lied for wher...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #33
With emotions running high and this turning into a race against time, you don’t want to be left behind on where this story is heading. This is a chapter in the Rhodes family’s lives where you want to hold tight know...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #32
Our return to the series last month was a big info dump for those who were prepared to finally come to understand where Mastema came from. It made sense of what pushed her to become one of the Five Mages and oppose her father. ...
Comic Book Review: Aquaman #40
I felt like I owed it myself to make sure that I saw this story arc to the end. I wasn’t there for the beginning of “Sink Atlantis”, but never once was I disappointed by the quality of work that went into this...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #31
February, let that sink in as the last time that we had Birthright to look forward to. For me, it was a tragic break from one of my favorite series out there. There have been a few books that stole my attention as unique forms ...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #46
Part of me still can’t really believe that someone took this bold step for Atlantis to experience what it feels like when the city is risen to the surface. It’s bold because so many cities like this are terrifying f...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #45
Its new story arc time for these villainous misfits. Now that we’ve had our personal adventure for a single Suicide Squad member, the next would of course have had to involve the rest of the team. When every new mission a...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #44
Anyone who knows me, knows that I am not the biggest Batman fan. I’m more of a fan of everyone else in the Bat Family before Batman himself. However, this team-up with Deadshot to save his daughter has been an exception f...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #42
Its not every day that Batman will decide that a villain like Deadshot deserves a chance to fight for someone he cares about. Honestly I was pretty shocked when this story came to light. Shocked because it was unexpected, yet e...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #41
Its new story arc time for Task Force X. A team that should I say once again is not the same as when they started last arc. June Moon/Enchantress is gone, Rick Flag is gone, attitudes are soured, and you definitely feel somethi...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #37
Suicide Squad #36 cranked the dial to ten as Hack is a woman on a mission. This isn’t the first person to have turn Belle Reve inside out, but Hack is as close as it gets when asking how wrong things can go for Waller if ...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #36
Its hard to believe that we’re already jumping into the next issue of Suicide Squad, but I’m glad we are quickly jumping back into this new story arc. This creative team took the gloves off this time around. I mean ...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #30
Rough time for the Rhodes family when the road to heroism is bathed by sacrifice and loss every step of the way. With that in mind, it wasn’t all too surprising when the best way to help Mikey would come with a heavy pric...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #35
One of the saddest moments I will say from this run of Suicide Squad was when they killed off Hack. This was a character who in a number of ways was not like the rest of the villains. She didn’t need to be there, but she ...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #29
Every truth has a lie, and every action has a consequence which all seem to be learning the hard way. The Rhodes family is being pushed to the limit in their fight against Lore on two fronts. One is trying to remove Lore’...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #32
When the big theme for this story arc seems to be sacrifice, you pretty much know what you are bracing yourself for by the end. Particularly when this is the finale for ‘The Secret History of Task Force X’. A missio...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #31
Its do or die for the Suicide Squad as they are not finding the best luck at combating this threat on two fronts. Everything about ‘The Secret History of Task Force X’ really came down to the execution of how the mi...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #30
Only a Suicide Squad mission will leaving guess this much as to what this team is getting themselves into. They re used to nothing ever being so simple, being betrayed by Waller for the sake of getting the mission done, and man...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #28
Since the start of this new story arc, fear and suspense have played a big role in this story. It made a big difference to as well come to clarity about this new threat that the Rhodes family now faces. With all things there ar...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #29
At this point of ‘The Secret History of Task Force X’, now it feels like a proper suicide mission that this team has been sent on. A mission on top of a story which opens a door to the history of the DC Universe tha...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #28
After everything that this team has been through recently, it only makes sense that we could dial back to a story that is less end of the world scenario. Again it does catch you off guard that there is another secret to this te...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #27
With this new issue of Suicide Squad we jump into a new story. I haven’t been all too invested in Dark Nights: Metal, but that didn’t mean I didn’t find myself satisfied with the way the Suicide Squad was tied...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #27
The feeling is good having Birthright back into the monthly swing. Issue #26 gave us a small understanding of where the story is now taking the Rhodes family after their encounter with Lore’s agents. The lengths as well t...
Comic Book Review: Birthright #26
I’m not going to lie, it has felt like forever since the last issue of Birthright. These breaks can be a killer wait, though you understand why these need to happen for a book to keep putting out the same quality each mon...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #24
The Suicide Squad have done some crazy things in the past, but to challenge Batman like this? And forcefully take away a reformed Killer Frost? Oh boy are they just asking for it this time, and it doesn’t seem that they c...
Comic Book Review: Suicide Squad #23
This is a tricky story arc to find my feelings on. Up to this point it has been great, but I surely was not expecting Task Force X to go full-on super-villain at the call of Waller. Not only after her conversation with Karla. I...
