Jeremy Adams is hands down one of the best writers DC has and I hope they recognize it. This series had a perfect balance of fun, suspense, and heart. The ending with the Flash family at the end was great though it got me upset how Adams was robbed of the main Flash book to make way for Spurrier's awful story.

The story itself was fun but Dan Mora's art is on a whole other level and is some of the best art I've ever seen. This series is truly special with the combo of Mora's breathtaking art and Waid's fantastic voice for these characters.

In my eyes Dick Grayson and Superman are the example of what we should all strive to be. But a huge flaw to this series is how Tom Taylor is constantly having everyone say what a great guy he is that it's tiresome and using the legend Marv Wolfman to do so for pages at the end was too much. I still enjoy the series but miss the days where Taylor excelled at showing how great these characters are rather than constantly saying it where it just comes off as pandering for no reason. I've also been fairly neutral on all the super hero shirts and mugs they have, but that meme shirt was just painfully corny.

This issue was fantastic and feel that my patience with this run is now being rewarded with some very compelling ideas and connections. I could feel my adrenaline pumping as the story progressed and was at the edge of my seat the whole read. Additionally, Jimenez's art is brilliant and elevates the issue to another level. Jimenez is not only my favorite current artist in comics but will go down as one of the best Batman artists in history which is murderers row of talent.

I really like Kelly Thompson but this book is ruff. Don't understand all the love this book's getting.

Vengeance of the Moon Knight (2024) #1 Apr 29, 2024

This issue was a total mixed bag for me. Sophie excels in emotional moments throughout the issue but this whole story arc has become so convoluted and disjointed that the issue felt so bloated with hand wavy solutions that it felt like a jumbled rush of a final issue. We did get some nice emotional beats with the future versions of the turtle fam throughout the arc, but it was a shame to exclude all the current timeline turtles in the final issue. In the end this was still a good issue full of amazing art and genuine emotional moments. The whole creative team involved in this epic run deserve applause and I could not be more grateful for being treated to such amazing stories. The IDW run is my favorite of all the TMNT comics which is high praise and I can't wait to see where the next phase goes.

This runs been so brutally repetitive and boring which continues here but I give him some credit for a few nice lines and at least moving the story forward (or so I hope).

Though this series tends to get a little hand wavy with explanations, it's so much fun and Williamson has a great feel for the arrow fam that this is one of my favorite current books at DC. So hyped to have Mia back and can't wait for more details on where she's been.

Gillon's a very talented writer and does a good job exploring sci fi concepts but they whole story's become so convoluted that it's hard to enjoy.

Great issue that perfectly captured the essence of what this book was capable at when at it's best, a fun cheesy action story with the scoundrels in the Star Wars universe. The problem with the series was that it would get diluted with too many new characters constantly being thrown at you without you ever giving you a reason to get invested in these characters or it would drag on side stories with the less compelling characters. In the end the series was enjoyable but nothing special. All the books of this era have significantly struggled by dragging out the timeline before Jedi too long resulting in mediocre stories. The previous era was far superior and hope the next phase of series can recapture that magic.

This issue was a slog to read and I really didn't jive with King's voice for Superman especially (though not as painful as his voice for Damian & Jon). He's clearly trying to recapture the fun of Date Night (which I really liked) but failed with constant goofy lines from Superman and writing Clark very generic as if he doesn't know Bruce like a brother. So many bad jokes and lines that just made no sense for them to say ("please don't tell Darksied"). That said the final few pages taking the picture and Bruce receiving the gift were fantastic and gave me some feels to see him smile like that but it's just a shame the journey to get there was so poor.

Started out good and I was excited to see Luke cleanse the crystal but once he enters the "evil" memories of the kyber the story really drops off. After all the warnings of this extremely dark all encompassing pain from the memories he'd endure, we're left with a very mundane boring alt reality that is just boring let alone threatening. Still decent overall but I really hope the story picks up significantly next issue.

Great issue finally bringing back some urgency and interest to the Zur story. The Joker Year One and Catwoman crossover really hurt the flow of this run and really hope we're past that and it stays on track.

Much improved hope Thompson sticks with a smaller roster to maintain focus and character development.

This was an awesome series but felt the 2 flashback stories in this issue were by far the weakest of them all. But the front and back ends were great with fantastic art making this a solid ending to the series. This will certainly be a trade I recommend to friends who don't typically read comics.

This story and concept was fairly interesting but with all the current Star Wars series already feeling uninspired and like they're treading water, this crossover just dragged the line down further. However rating it on it's own, was a fairly enjoyable story.

This was a good issue but the over narration is really taking away from the story and if it keeps going this way will really make this series a slog to read. Tom King should never write Damian or Jon as he has no voice for the characters and just writes them as arguing brats which is painful to read.

The IDW TMNT run has been truly special and Sophie Campbell's art and writing have been a huge part of that but this time crisis/QNA story line isn't working for me. Everything just feels to convoluted and all over the place losing any tension or my concern for the outcome. There is still some good character work and emotional moments such as how devastated I was to see Lita de-mutated. Great art too. I really hope it all comes together in the final issue.

I'm not a fan of defining the Joker's past but the story of the past timeline does have my interest and presents some interesting ideas but I'm not really into the future timeline. The final issue has a lot of work to do to make this a worthwhile story and I really hope he sticks the landing.

The first half was mediocre and the whole Shush & Manbat story is weak but the second half was great and I'm all about the feels between Bruce & Damian bonding. Hyped for next issue to get more Flatline too.

Another solid issue with fantastic art by Ron Marz. The flawless facial expressions do so much to portray strong emotional moments without the need for dialogue.

I liked the previously released back ups in the Wonder Woman issues but the new story is bad with awful character portrayals.

Lots of cool reveals here but the repetitive biblical type quotes theme has really began to drag down each ongoing issue.

This was hands down the best event I can recall since the Bendis Avengers era. The story kept getting more interesting as it went on and all reveals were earned and previously presented in related series. I've been somewhat disappointed with Taylor's latest writing as I have such high expectations for his work and he really delivered here. Major events and consequences with that classic TT emotional and fun moments with perfect characterization. DC & Marvel should also learn that this story was also great due to a quick release schedule and didn't got bogged down with tons of bad or pointless tie ins.

Though I doubt Tom King will make any of this book part of his main story in the end, I don't even care as Campbell does such a good job with these characters and this was such a fun read.

The art is great but this story keeps dragging on to nowhere. This run could have potentially been good in 12 issues tops but it just keeps slowing going on continuing the same beats.

Great to have Hester on art here going back to the well of him and Smith's classic run with their Onomatopoeia story. This book's just a fun solid read each week and I really hope Williamson sticks the landing with this and his Superman stories.

Fun issue to get some character work for Damian at school but really hope the principal is actually reformed and the Shush story has a satisfying reveal. Was also pleased that the art was much better here than before and seems to lend itself far better to more traditional coloring.

I typically don't like Jason Aaron books and get bogged down reading Bizarro talk, but this was a great start and I'm really liking everything Aaron's bringing to the table in DC so far. Seems he's been reinvigorated writing for DC and looking forward to this and Batman Off World continuing.

McKay really needs to spend some time slowing down and focus on character work which is what he's best at. Each issue has been quickly losing steam due to nonstop end of the world threats but having most of this issue be just a dream was really lame. The art was great and still keeping faith McKay finds his groove.

As someone who rolled his eyes upon Spider-Boy's introduction and was extremely skeptical of this new character, I got to give Dan Slott praise for how much fun I found this issue to be. Slott just knows how to write great Spider-Man stories and nails a perfect balance of comedy and character work (unlike the current Spider-Man run) for a series that I'm excited for more.

The Dark Web crossover was atrocious and completely ruined Limbo just making it a complete joke. Now bringing that awful story and characters back into the series just continues to drag this series down after being on a decent pace of late. Zeb Wells thinks his "clever" Bizarro Spider-Man character Rek-Rap is a hilarious hit, but is proving he should not be given the chance to write series for Marvel's top characters and should be kept for books like Deadpool.

Only 2 issues in and this is the best Captain America book since Brubaker's infamous run. I'm finally excited to read Marvel comics again after years of mostly mediocre stories thanks to books like this, FF, Daredevil, and Hulk.

I love the dynamic between Damian and Bruce, but there are some really corny things happening such as Man-Bat not dying because he was preserved in a cocoon due to all the formulas he's taken. Also making Man-Bat the "big bad" with Shush as his stooge, really make that character a chump and will be awful if she actually ends up being Damian's former teacher.

Great start and I'm really hoping the quality here continues. I'm hoping Hill has refined his craft as I've seen potential in some of his previous stuff but he struggled with jarring dialogue and dragged out plot lines.

I enjoyed the issue but the fact that this team is supposed to be the replacing the Justice League and the story read more like an episode of Captain Planet is a problem. Hopefully Beast Wars elevates the stakes to give them a major threat.

This was a decent issue but some jarring moments that were way too much much like the demeaning talk of Steve Treavor and the over the top stripping of masculinity stuff. The narration is far better than typical King but this trop is starting to get old 3 issues in. That said I'm still into the story and the back up was fun with great art.

This was a perfect blend of a horror comic and a goofy buddy action flick.

Just hope future artist don't think Werewolf by Night needs to be B&W just because one TV special did it.

Thank god Gotham War is over and Zdarsky's run can continue without being dragged down by Tini Howard and Matthew Rosenburg's terrible writing. This issue gets right back to a compelling high stakes story with the Joker that nicely ties back the Chip's The Knight and Morrison's Zur-En-Arrh. Though the Joker can feel overplayed, the problem is with too many inept writers telling Joker stories so for me this is a breath of fresh air to have a capable writer using him. The back up is also great and nice to not only have Zdarsky writing it, but excellent that there's more to be done with Vandall Savage without being bogged down by the Gotham War. Jimenez's art is brilliant as always.

I love the nefarious political and military industrial complex commentary smartly being played out in the story but the issue itself feels so dry and emotionless that it felt like a chore to read. The stiff art and color pallet used also lend to a lifeless read. With that said there's still interesting themes being explored that I can stick with this for the final issue.

There were too many new characters thrown at us all at once that it makes it hard to care about the group dynamics at this point. The art is ok but has a style that plays more to a goofy story which really makes it even harder to take this Dark Droids "event" serious as it's been underwhelming from the start. All the Star Wars books are struggling from lack luster stories due to treading water.

If you told me this issue would premiere "HELLVERINE" I would have rolled my eyes and been grateful I dropped the Wolverine run, but man this story is tons of fun and exactly what a Wolverine/Ghost Rider crossover should be. Just a fun over-the-top romp with plenty of monsters and violence.

I really enjoyed the issue but did find some of the scenes like Yara being able to sneak into a top level Presidential meeting to be pushing it a little too far. The art was great too but there were some scenes that were a little confusing.

Rather than find a character's voice, Si Spurrier just decides to impose his voice into the characters he's writing and it's extremely jarring and pretentious. This is why I tend to avoid his work but I gave him a fair shot as I love Wally. Lesson learned that Spurrier just can't help himself and I'll stick to avoiding his work from now on regardless of how much I love the characters he's holding hostage. It's criminal the Jeremy Adams run was canceled far too early to shift gears to this and hopefully the sales indicate this was a misstep forcing DC to learn their lesson.

Remaining cautiously optimistic as I haven't liked King's writing since the early stages of his Batman run but this was another good issue. Though most of DC's backups of late have been awful, this one's interesting and I'm very excited to see Josie Campbell given a Yara Flora story and think she'd be the perfect writer to give that character the run she deserves.

I was shocked to actually enjoy this. Note that I read on Marvel Unlimited so my review doesn't reflect the cost of the issue. Wells has been way too "silly" in this series (especially the insufferable Inferno "event") but this issue toed the line enough on the goofiness to have some fun without being nonsense. Wells had a good balance of storytelling with comedic beats in Hellions but has yet to carry that quality over in this series. Hoping things pick up though I haven't loved many of the directions he's been going. I even liked most the back ups.

I'm still devastated Jeremy Adams' run was cut far too short and replacing him with Si Spurrier hurt even more as I'm usually not a fan of his work. That said, this was a solid issue to set up some interesting threats while also doing a decent job spending time with the Flash family which Adams excelled at. The art is also fantastic and the freaky scenes are some of Deodato's best work.

If Johnson and Williamson can both maintain the quality of each series, this will go down as a special moment for classic Superman stories.

Can't wait until this run is over.

My only concern is how awful Williamson's events have been and I really hope he doesn't drop the ball on what could be a classic run. Also have to applaud Williamson on putting in a recap page which is needed throughout DC's line.

I'm not longer a fan of Tom King since about half way through his Batman run but this was a fairly good issue and interesting new direction to take the series. The biggest flaw is the terrible premise that all these people are being deported and murdered as the result of a bar brawl with one Amazonian. There should have been a more high stakes event to set off such events. Either way, I can roll with this and try to be optimistic with King's run as Wonder Woman has been plagued with terrible writers for too long and any change of direction is welcome at this point.

They've stretched this era out too far and these latest stories are bad. This book has was never as good a Gillen's run but was still good enough but starting with the Sabe storyline it's been on a steep downward trend.

I love the show and heard great things about this book but it just didn't do it for me.

This book is a breath of fresh air compared to Gotham War and the played out rift amongst the bat family that's been a never ending cycle for too long in recent runs. Though his recent "events" have been awful, Joshua Williamson has done such great work with Damian and he truly understands the character so I'm hoping he continues to write enough Damian stories that other writers will pick up on what makes him so great. My only problem with the issue was the art. The artist clearly has talent and I love anime influenced style but there's something about it that's hard to follow at times and took away from the issue. It seems to zoom in too far during the action and you can't good sense of what's going on.

I was really concerned having Tini Howard involved in this crossover as I don't feel any writer can salvage anything she's involved in but this issue somewhat tainted my feelings on Zdarsky's writing (who I find to be one of the best writers currently at the big 2). Dick Grayson saying Bruce needs to get off his "Moral Ledge" is practically blasphemy. Dick and Superman are supposed to be the moral compass of the DCU so he would never make such a statement of act like this. Just when it seemed the Bat-family was finally in a good place and getting along, we' thrown right into another rift that we keep seeing repeated through each writer's runs and it's getting so old and frustrating at this point. The Bat line is in dire need of a capable editor to manage the direction of these books and to challenge the writers to re-assess their ideas to get the most out of their potential. On a more positive note, it's so great to have Jorge Jimenez back on this book as his art style is amazing bringing so much life to it. Easily my favorite artist right now.

Kelly Thompson is exactly what DC needs. I've been eager for her to come over to DC for a while as I feel she's the best female writer at the big 2 and DC really lacks quality writers on their female characters' books. Birds of Prey is perfectly suited for her style and had a decent start that I'm looking forward to seeing how it plays out. Hoping/expecting she evolves the team dynamics and character relationships further as it continues. Though it's not my favorite, I really liked the art and have to applaud the classic comic feel Romero brings to the table to make this book unique and the colors compliment the art extremely well.

I didn’t read much of the Ultimate universe aside from Mike’s and the elements that tied into Hickman’s FF and Avengers run that led into Secret Wars so I wasn’t hyped for this but gave the first issue a chance. Once we see what the maker appears to be up to, I was fascinated to see where this goes..

This issue was literally incredible! With all the poor quality books marvel is pumping out, this series already stands out as one of the few to actually get excited about. The whole monster theme Johnson is going for starts off great and has me eager to see where it goes. Plus Klein’s art is just breathtaking and couldn’t fit the tone of the theme better.

I used to love Tom Taylor and held out hope he'd come to a satisfying end here but man what a waste of time. Not only do we not a get a satisfying conclusion to Jon or Injustice Superman's stories, but the whole issue felt like Tom Taylor apologizing for his Injustice work when anyone with a brain accepted it was an Elseworld's story. Nightwing started out great until it just became the perpetual "Nightwing is awesome" series without resolving major plots, his Jon Kent work's been ok, and Teen Titans has so far been disappointing with the writing quality of an average digital first. Shame he couldn't keep up the magic he brought to the table on Injustice, Unkillables, and the DCeased digital spin off.

This had to be the best issue of what's so far been a disappointing series lacking a direction. Nice to see him finally put Firestar to use and really hoping all these threats that have been teased for too long will finally come to a satisfying head.

Wells never created a valid reason for Ms. Marvel to be shoehorned in this series and further didn't even include her in meaningful conversations to make her part of the story. Marvel editorial's agenda for a money grab to cash in on some attention and then change her to a mutant later on, is so transparent it's embarrassing. Meanwhile Spider-Man fan just keep taking the abuse. Struggling to even continue reading even via Marvel Unlimited.

This is the only current Marvel book that I get excited for a new issue. North is doing a fantastic job balancing science fiction concepts, character work, twilight zone nostalgia, and super hero action that are also just simply fun to read. Really hoping North gets to have a long run as this hands down the best Fantastic Four run in the modern era next to Hickman's. I also have to praise the beautiful art and coloring of each issue.

I really hope Josie Campbell sticks the landing on this as I feel she may be the best writer DC has to finally provide a readable Wonder Woman series post Greg Rucka. Her track record from her work on New Champion of Shazam and the AMAZING My Adventures of Superman, already show she's a far better suited writer for the character than Tom King (all set with a depressing Wonder Woman story where half the writing is just old song lyrics).

Great issue that's finally back to the high standard this run had before Devil's Reign. It's a shame the Fist arc went on so long that it really diminished the run and hoping that the rest of the story keeps up this momentum.

Wow this new direction is setting the stage for so many unique stories to come. So much to like here with the feel of a crime comic then adding in Barlow into the mix for some horror elements. I also love to see Mikey getting to bug to explore beyond the city and makes total sense for his personality. I wasn’t sure about this new direction last issue but now I’m sold and can’t wait for more.

Solid ending to a story that I wasn't really enjoying previously. Though we don't get much Aphra, it's nice to get even just a couple words from her written by anyone other than Ally Wong.

Great issue and satisfying conclusion. Overall the Armageddon Game was good but could have been so much stronger with a tighter story and cast. The addition of all the new space characters really dragged the story down and really wish they were not included so we'd have a stronger/less convoluted story focusing on the characters that had purpose to the story. In the end I don't feel like the story was worth all the money spent on the oversized issues and tie ins and would have played much better being a prolonged story in the main series. Going to stick with the next few issues but think this may be a jumping off point as the series doesn't have the magic it had for the first 100 issues (which is a huge accomplishment for any series).

Great issue but the delays have killed all momentum to this series. Looking forward to reading it all at once and hope for a better experience.

Ok issue but Taylor isn't delivering the great character work or dialog that he used to. Having Bruce say Superman killed his son was way out of line and almost took me right out of the issue.

Really liked Adam's "Almost Got 'Im" story for a fun one shot but really wish he had a stronger finish to his fantastic run and devastated that it's come to a close. The Bart story was great but the Spurrier story further increases my concern with him replacing Adam's as his writing style is a terrible fit for these characters.

The art in this was amazing and I really hope to see a long run with Fero Pe on board. Would have loved it if they were the artist for Armageddon Game. The story was good and carried some emotional weight though I'm concerned we've already had many amazing similar issues and fear getting them too often will start to take away from their impact. But seeing Mikey as a big time celeb in the future was the best!

Nice to see everything coming to a head but feel like the event struggles from too many new characters all at once that it often takes away the emotional impact from the story. Personally the art style has not been my favorite and the panels have been too tight and up close during fights that it's not that clear what's going on. Still a good issue and interested to see how it all wraps up.

Inferno was great for being a serious story with goofy elements but this shows Dark Web is trying to capture that but is failing by going so cheesy goofy even in the villains portrayals that there's no story to be invested in.

This run has been so disappointed and I will no longer read it unless their a change in writers. Aphra is the best new character we’ve got from the Star Wars comics and I just hope this awful run doesn’t tarnish her name or hurt the character’s popularity going forward.

Solid issue with really nice art. The coloring is fantastic and Ronda Pattison continues to cement herself as one of the best colorists in the history of comics.

Such a relief to finally get a great issue out of this series that has been disappointing for me compared to what I expect from the ongoing series. Sophie kills it with the art and story that quickly develops Venus into a compelling character.

Abe Sapien Vol. 2 Hardcover Feb 5, 2023

This arc may be good but really struggles with bad timing. Batman being "dead" after just coming back in Crisis and too much multi-verse focus going on everywhere, really makes it hard to buy into another one. But the issue was interesting and better than what we're getting in Detective so I'm positive overall but would have been better if Zdarsky adjusted his plans accounting for what's just happened in the DCU.

The art of the fist part of the story is great with a cool anime style that's very dynamic to really give the fight a sense of energy on the page. The story is fairly basic but I was fine with it to finally get some more Alopex in the series without some of the jarring issues I felt with the last two Alliance issues. Decent issue in what's so far been a really disappointing "event."

The Heartless origin would've been solid without making it so ridiculous how he witnessed the Grayson's death and that was the moment of inspiration for his life going forward. I can roll with this one but there seems to be a trend lately of too many new characters having major connections to the hero's origin that it takes away from the impact when done right.

This issue left me conflicted. There were some good character moments for Casey here but they were so diluted by too much basic dense narration/dialogue with lots of surface level writing and cheesy parts. Overall balanced to have a slightly a positive impression but these Alliance issues really don't feel worth the price to read.

Got to say this series is proving to be a let down with each issue. It feels stretched too thin with too many new characters or random side missions that aren't interesting so far. The art is also pretty disappointing for a big crossover as the TMNT tie in issues art is stronger. I'm really hoping Waltz ties it all together by the end.

This issue was much stronger than the start to the new arc and is more in line with what I was expecting from Ram V. He thankfully dialed back the cringe "poetic" dialogue/monologue from characters that would never speak that way and really hoping that continues to not take away from the story he's telling.

Batman: One Bad Day (2022): The Penguin #1 Nov 30, 2022

Perfect simple one shot issue that's plenty of fun. Sometimes attempts at stories like this fall flat especially when a series isn't providing stories of substance, but after the last few issues being so strong while actually tying into Dark Crisis (unlike the other "tie ins") a one shot break to have some fun fits perfect.

Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths (2022) #5 Nov 28, 2022

Though this takes place between Empire and Jedi where Vader eventually turns back to the light, this story's focus of him remembering the good in him to save Sabe is a bit much and would take away from his ultimate sacrifice to save his son Luke.

This book is in dire need of a new writer. I've been going along for my love of Aphra but it's getting to a point where this run is taking away from the perceived relevance of the character.

Hopefully this continues with other writers now that it seems Williamson has been handed the keys to current/upcoming DC status. Only knock to this issue was the lack of a compelling reason for Ra's turning himself in.

Solid issue filling in the scenes for the Armageddon Game while giving the side characters some focus. A big stand out for this issue is the fantastic artwork of Fero Pe. Personally it felt like the art dipped below the usual high standards of the series as of late, so I had to applaud the great art for this issue.

The Joker (2021) #13 Sep 13, 2022

Was so excited for Zeb Wells' run on Spider-Man after his amazing Hellions run but so far the story is really lacking. Romita's art also doesn't help. I'm cool for waiting to find out what happened in the 6 months but this issue kind of dragged at points and Tombstone's feelings on Robbie & Randy are suddenly the exact opposite of where he was just at. Hope it all makes sense in the end.

Don't get the Al Ewing hype but he's clearly not for me so gonna drop this run. I love sci fi stories, but personally don't find he's able to tell compelling or even interesting stories.

Wow, what a fantastic issue! Sophie became one of my favorite artists right from her early issues in Northampton and her she is returning as writer this time with another truly special issue. Love all the mysticism and character work done here and can't wait for more. Also have to give props to Tunica on getting better at the proportions, which really took me out of the last issue, and hope the trend continues as he certainly has talent.

Good issue but the amount of surface level dialogue is pretty jarring. Both Nightwing & especially Son of Kal-El have had this problem which really takes away from the story. Taylor usually excels at dialogue and heart felt stories so hoping he dials it in on these books.

I've been consistently reading each issue for love of the character while placing faith in Alyssa Wong to find a groove with some interesting stories but as of late this book just seems to be dragging on through a purgatory of mediocrity. I really hope they find a new writer for this series to invigorate the story before anyone starts losing interest in the character.

I was pumped for this run when it was announced Zeb Wells was the author as his Hellions run was amazing but I have to admit I was devastated to hear Romita Jr. would be the artist as I found his latest work on Superman to be jarringly terrible. That said I was pleasantly surprised the find that he really did a great job (for what his style is) on this #1 and hope coming back to Marvel is what he needed. Overall this was a solid first issue where there are a few off-putting things at play but knowing Zeb's previous work am confident will for a valid reason that will be addressed/resolved as the story unfolds. This issue does exactly what a first issue should do: spark curiosity, be entertaining, and give us an idea of where the series is headed. I will say I HATE how Marvel just won't let Peter & MJ be happily married as it clearly works brilliantly for Louis & Clark. Else world stories nail at how fun the family aspect of poppa Peter with lil' Annie can be a blast but unfortunately appears it doesn't seem that editorial will allow that for one reason or another though Miles already fills the slot as the young Spider-Man.

Each issue just seems to be losing me as the whole quick to condemn people to the pit over minor things doesn't gel with the other books. I do see Xavier as a very questionable character but feel he'd just mind wipe the kid rather than tossing him in the pit. But I did highly appreciate the historical facts sprinkled into the story as well as showing what those betrayed by their nation/public justice system have to overcome and how I'd feel if it happened to me which elevated this issue from a 6.5 to a 7 for me.

It's unfortunate that the art of late has been an issue for me. Pablo Tunica is clearly a talented artist but he draws everyone with the proportions of little kids. The cover alone looks like a child dressed as Shredder or as everyone was de-aged in the story. The facial expressions have also been quite jarring, especially Alopex which is a shame as Sophie is writing a solid issue with some strong emotional moments that the art is really diminishing. A shame as the art is good aside from those issues but they're so significant it's really hampering my experience of these latest issues. Hopefully others aren't struggling with it as much as I love this series and want the readership to stay strong.

Really enjoyed the story and art of the Batman/Zatanna story thought the talk between Superman and Batman was very jarring and off character. The Wight Witch was readable but very cliché story trope for a character that doesn't feel warranted to have a past with Bruce. The last two were the standard throw away stories we seem to get in this book and won't be reading the rest of those.

Get's interesting at the end but the whole recapping common knowledge Batman lore that's already been recapped in the series is getting to be pretty brutal and took me out of half the issue.

I liked how we got an issue to focus on the characters' mental and emotional status with everything they've been dealing with but some of the dialogue felt somewhat heavy handed or unnatural. The art was ok and it was nice to have a change in style for a story like this where facial expressions were really needed to convey their emotions but some facial features were pretty jarring. I also really hope we get some resolution to Rahne's son as she seems to be at an emotional stand still the whole series.

Chip Zdarsky is one of the best current writers at DC & Marvel but this whole series was just very mediocre and felt like a typical digital only fan service story. At least it's lightyears better than the current Bendis Justice League run which is just unreadable.

Man this was a fantastic issue to a great new arc. I was worried the series was starting to drag but really feel like it’s back to some new exciting ideas. I was also very skeptical of Tunica’s art in his first issue but feel he’s really found his groove dialing back the jarring facial expressions and does a great job playing with a horror tone. Can’t wait for the next issue!

Though the whole beginning seemed offensively nonsensical, a few parts made me laugh so I can't criticize it that harshly. In the end the book got back to serious story telling again that led to major revelations for Ben to learn and should continue an intriguing story. Ziglar just needs to dial down on the attempted jokes that fail at comedy but excel at making great characters like Doc Oc, Colleen, and Misty come across as jokes. All said and done the book averaged out for a solid issue thanks to the end.

I can easily say this was the worst issue of a comic I've ever read. I am a huge fan of most of what Bendis did at Marvel from Jessica Jones, Avengers, and even X-Men runs but it's as he's since his move to DC his books have just been getting worse to the point that they're now just unreadable. I read through DC Universe so reading an issue is free but can no longer waste my time or deal with the aggravation of this run.

I have to applaud Vita Ayala on this issue and her work with the Shadow King. As she's a writer I often find to be more of a miss than hit, she's done a solid job on this series. Only nit pick is the jarring redundant lines from Magik but the brilliant art secures this issue as a 9 for me.

Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters: IG-88 #1 Jan 31, 2022

This book is amazing and highly recommended for any fan of the Twilight Zone and/or Rod Serling. I always loved the show since a kid but having gone back to rewatch the whole series as an adult, I gained a new appreciation for how ahead of it's time it was with concepts that still hold up to this day. What was most striking was that I never realized that Rod Serling wrote the majority of episodes which quickly elevated him amongst the gods of science fiction in my eyes. Needless to say I had to read this book the second I discovered it and can gladly say it exceeded my expectations. Rod lived such an incredible life and to follow his journey to see how his ideas grew and formulated was fascinating. The book is written with perfect pacing while allowing the art to tell what it's there to do. The art is fantastic and the perfect style to give the feel of early black & white television.

I used to love Bendis books back in the Marvel days, now his writing is unreadable and a shame he's just trying to force all his failed or ignored stories from his disappointing Superman and Leviathan runs into the Justice League. Solid art and still enjoying the JLA Dark backups fortunately.

As a huge fan of the original run, I was a disappointed with the first arc and nervous for the series but the last issue picked up and I really feel that Wong found Aphra’s voice and how to write the character in this issue. The first arc had to many additional characters that seemed to bog down the issues taking attention away from Aphra. I also have to praise Mikul Jung’s amazing art and has drawn the best Aphra of the current series by a landslide. Really hope this is the turning point for a great series.

I was a huge fan of most of Bendis' work over at Marvel and was excited to see him make his way to DC but man after trying to be positive at first on Superman which ended up being a total disappointment in the end, this Justice League run so far is just a dud. All the characters are too jokey sounding the same and the book just feels like a back door pilot for Naomi. At least there's the JL Dark backup to enjoy.

Big fan of Sophie Campbell and liked the concept of character day to day life focused stories post issue 100 at first, but this current run is really starting to drag and feels like it's treading water. I've loved many silent issues but feel the images just weren't strong enough to show a compelling story. I love the turtles and will stick with the series but really hope things start to improve.

I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised that this was an enjoyable issue. I didn't care for the character portrayals in issue #1 and honestly usually do not like Williams writing but this was a decent issue and hope the rest of the series picks up from here.

Chip Zdarsky is one of my favorite current Marvel/DC writers with his Daredevil and Red Hood series, but this story has been somewhat boring so far so hopefully it picks up next issue.

Man for such a promising and fun start, Spencer's run is really going out on a lull. After fully developing Boomerang into such a great character it's a shame how his death felt so rushed and almost glossed over to lose all emotional weight it should have held. The play to have Doc Oc foil kindred's plan was solid as true to the character but the conclusion to this "war" doesn't read like an end and should have had a confrontation between Peter and Kindred. Really hoping the next ASM issue has a somewhat satisfying conclusion.

I'm a big fan of Gene Luen Yang and think every human should read his perfect Superman Smashes the Klan and have also been enjoying his latest Shang Chi runs, but his start to this series has been a huge disappointment. The fantastic art and occasional funny lines just aren't enough to make up for what's feeling more and more over a jumbled story that's losing my interest more each issue. Hopefully once this arc is done the series picks up.

Fun story, leaning into the campy theme while balancing an interesting story, great characters, and amazing art.

Finally feels like we're starting to get a good grasp on the characters and their chemistry. This series has so much potential with the concept as well as being written & drawn by two of Marvels top creators but so far hasn't reached what it could be but it's starting to feel like it's getting there. Really hoping they found that magic and run with it.

This book finally feels like it's starting to give us some idea of the new kids and hopefully will continue to do so rather than just relying on the "who is Red X" trope that isn't enough to keep a story interesting. Fingers crossed this gets better as the potential is there.

This book just continues to be fantastic. Kelly Thompson's witty dialogue with the amazing art style of this book finds a great blend maintaining the espionage style a Black Widow story should have with laughs and charming characters making each read a joy.

I really enjoyed this issue as stories like this better the series rather than some of the other other-worldly threats that just didn't seem to fit. This issue gave Jed MacKay a chance to write good witty dialogue that is fun and shows how great Felicia is.

Though the Scooby-Doo-esque "let me explain to you how I did it" beginning was a little cheesy, the issue was solid and really picked up as it went along. Really happy to see the consistency between not just the Bat/Gotham books but even Swamp Thing and how things are tying together and impacting each other.

I was a huge fan of Bendis back at Marvel but it really feels like he's totally lost his touch since coming to DC and the overuse of banter takes away from when it could be good. The Justice League Dark backup has been more interesting and telling more of a story in half the pages.

I've been a big fan of this series but feels it's fell off the track and has been way too rushed and overloaded with characters & plots that have really made the issues feel jarring/boring. With such a chaotic tone with nothing happening besides non-stop fighting each issue, it's a real disappointment if this series can't stick the landing and give us a good wrap up to the Kindred story with great character development.

Amazing art and solid writing. Really looking forward to get more Yara Flor.

So disappointing but what I should have expected from the writer as I tend to find most of her stories not for me. Besides the extensive dialogue (which I don't mind when interesting), the characters don't seem to be acting in line with their current status in the books. Magneto especially comes across as his 90's villain phase and the art also further depicts characters acting more aggressive than you'd expect in some situations. Hopefully the other issues improve as an X-Event in this current status of great books should be exciting to read.

Justice League: Last Ride #1 Nov 19, 2021

This series started out so strong and felt like the last few issues gradually lost some steam but was happy to see he stuck the landing in this final issue. The trope of the heroes getting taken over by symbiotes feels so played out with recent Marvel stories, but was a good way to relieve Peter from being guilty by law for his crimes. The play of Johnny disguising as Peter to take out the symbiote was clever and liked Sue's presence here too.

This story's kind of a bore and though this whole transition arc about John coping with the burden of living up to his father's mantle has felt really surface level and repetitive, I felt this issue had better examples of what John's dealing with.

The Joker story was great as usual especially with the ending but the Punchline story backup was a bore and feels like this story is dragging and I've lost my interest in it.

Harrow County Vol. 2 Omnibus Sep 5, 2021

This book blew me away and felt like an instant classic in just the first few issues. Has all the elements that I look for in a great horror story from interesting characters, intriguing storyline, witches, pantheons, monsters, ghosts, suspense, and that a constant uneasy tension throughout. On top of that the art is just brilliant and compliments the story to perfection. Amazing character designs and expressions with a beautiful water color finish. I can’t recommend this book enough and had to leave this praising review before I dove into volume 2.

Great art but this feels like a tie in issue that only the last few pages progress a story. Continuing my disappointment in the Aaron's Avengers run and patiently waiting for the next writer to give this book life again.

I've been loving most the X books of the Krakoa era so was so disappointed with this. Was a true drudge just to get through and a shame cuz I love these characters but looks like I'll be skipping this one from here on out.

Another drag of a boring issue further making a joke of the phoenix force and our loved characters with pointless fights and cliché tropes of characters saying things that feel off base for what we know of them. I was really liking the beginning of Aaron's run and was pumped to see where it was leading but the Moon Knight issues really seemed to be a bore and this arc has been especially brutal. Hoping we can get back to some better stories once this arc is finally over with.

As a huge fan of the series as well as Sophie Campbell, this latest story arc has been disappointing and the series has lost the excitement it's steadily maintained since issue 1. I'ma huge fan of slowing down the pace for character work and am very grateful Alopex and Raph's relationship is getting focus again but the last few issues just felt a little watered down. With some good seeds having been planted, I'm hoping the story picks up to high level we expect from this series.

No one captures the soul and heart of a turtles story better than Sophie Campbell’s art and writing. This issues took the reflective time needed after the high stakes city at war to breath and assess where each character is at and establish a new direction to come. Perfect 10/10 for the art and writing and can’t wait to follow the next step in the journey the whole IDW team has masterfully given us to enjoy.

Great wrap up to one of the best sci fi adventure stories ever. This book had so much character depth with beautiful art it will go down as a classic for the ages.

Great issue that wrapped up the city at war arch leaving plenty of new directions for the book to go. The conclusion felt a little rushed but the resulting emotional ending scene after totally made up for it.
