Batman / Spawn (2022) #1

Dec 13, 2022

If you're looking for a visually stunning book, with variant covers up the wazoo, then Batman/Spawn is the perfect book for you. Just try not to expect too much of the plot or think too hard about it.

Batman vs. Robin (2022) #5

Feb 28, 2023

Waid's excellent writing provides an earnest voice for Damian that is emotional without being oversentimental or hokey. Asrar and Bellaire are at the top of their game with art and colors on this book and create some stunning splash pages. So often a series is defined by whether or not it can "stick the landing" and it's safe to say that Batman vs. Robin #5 did just that.

Batman: Fortress (2022) #7

Nov 22, 2022

Great artwork and interesting conflict get Batman: Fortress back on track from a bit of a lull in earlier issues. You'll be rewarded for sticking with the title until the end. Excited to see how the series wraps up.

Batman: Fortress (2022) #8

Jan 17, 2023

Though not the epic knock-down drag-out fight some may have been expecting, the ending of this comic opens up some very interesting possibilities for a sequel series.

Gargoyles (2022) #2

Jan 24, 2023

I was hoping issue #2 would hit the ground running after all the setup and exposition of issue one, but the pace of this issue is pretty sluggish.

Lazarus Planet (2023): Legends Reborn #1

Jan 31, 2023

While all of the stories were good enough on their own, and I'm excited to see where their stories take them in future DC comics, Legends Reborn lacks the cohesion of previous installments. Worth it if you're dedicated to the Lazarus Planet event.

Lazarus Planet (2023): Omega #1

Feb 21, 2023

Similar to Lazarus Planet: Alpha there's tons of great action in this issue, but not a lot really happens. Even though this comic is called "Omega" and should finish the story, it feels like a lot of important plotlines aren't tied up by the end.

Lazarus Planet (2023): Dark Fate #1

Feb 14, 2023

If these Lazarus Planet one shots have shown the readers anything, it's that the new Dawn of DC era will be one of the most diverse in its history. Lots of new characters and underutilized old characters will be getting time to shine in the spotlight. This issue in particular had a great combination of the old and new, with excellent artwork, interesting character design, and meaningful representation.

Lazarus Planet (2023): We Once Were Gods #1

Jan 24, 2023

This is a fantastic anthology comic from DC that really lets its stars shine. You get a real sense that the eruption of Lazarus Island will have a lasting impact on the DC universe.

Lazarus Planet (2023): Assault On Krypton #1

Jan 17, 2023

If you're fully invested in the Lazarus Planet event and looking for more background stories, Lazarus Planet: Assault on Krypton #1 is the perfect fix. The artwork is great, and the characters they focus on are interesting and the ways their powers are changing/manifesting will probably prove to be important in the coming issues.

Lazarus Planet: Revenge of the Gods #1

Mar 14, 2023

With excellent writing and art, this is a great first issue for an interesting premise. It will be intriguing to see how the new status quo of the DC universe post-Lazarus Planet will impact the outcome of this war between Gods and humanity.

Lazarus Planet: Revenge of the Gods #2

Mar 28, 2023

With great art, fun one-on-one moments with the Turtles and Rangers and a plot that's easy to jump in to for casual fans, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II is a shell of a good time and not just a nostalgia cash grab.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #138

Mar 21, 2023

With all of the various pieces on the board, and the Armageddon game coming to a close, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #138 begins to deliver on the months of setup and tie-ins. With fantastic writing and art this is a must read issue for those following the event.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Best Of: Leatherhead #1

Nov 22, 2022

A solid collection of Leatherhead stores that (mostly) hit the mark. Whether you're a hardcore TMNT fan or someone new to the universe, there's something for you here.
