Darkwing Duck (2023) #3 |
Mar 16, 2023 |
If youre a fan of Darkwing and Morganas relationship, you are sure to love Darkwing Duck #3, but if youre expecting a lot of action, this issue is not for you. Nevertheless, they set up the villain for next issue, so mostly likely the Terror the Flaps in the Night will make his triumphant return to crime fighting. His eventual fight with this villain is most likely foreshadowed as Drake is looking through various photos of his time as Darkwing fighting villains. Will Darkwing come to the rescue? Could Drake and Morgana get married? Let us know what you think, Darkwing fans! |

Darkwing Duck (2023) #2 |
Feb 22, 2023 |
The pacing in this issue could better. The action in fighting Quackerjack and his toys is exciting, but after Quackerjack is defeated, the ending seems a bit anticlimactic, and it could be difficult to follow without the dialogue. The story flows well, for the most part, but the ending seems kind of abrupt and out of the blue, not really being hinted at earlier. That being said, it seems appropriate that Drake changes into Darkwing in a photo booth, playing at his massive ego. Quackerjack could have had a bit more dialogue though. You can definitely hear the voices of Jim Cummings, Michael Bell, Terry McGovern and Christine Cavanaugh coming through the dialogue of their respective characters. |

Gargoyles (2022) #3 |
Feb 22, 2023 |
The dialogue is well-written, and Greg Weisman truly proves himself to be a masterful storyteller. The characters voices come through and you can hear the voices of Keith David, Bill Fagerbakke, Tim Curry, Jonathan Frakes and others come through the dialogue as you read it. We see the themes of the preciousness of life, and the importance of protecting ones family, as Broadway emphasizes through his narration. |

Batman: Beyond the White Knight #8 |
Feb 15, 2023 |
Batman: Beyond the White Knight #8 provides a great sendoff for this story of the bat-family and the re-imagined Batman Beyond origin, and also leaves the door open for future spinoff stories featuring cameos from a few Justice Leaguers at the end. It gets to the heart of who Batman is, both the character of Bruce Wayne, his legacy, and the symbol of the Dark Knight, and what that ultimately stands off. Murphy did a fantastic job telling this story. |

Damage Control (2022) #4 |
Nov 9, 2022 |
Damage Control #4 is a funny book and those who are fans of Marvel villains and appreciate goofy humor will enjoy this book. Eugene is where most of the humor comes from. The villain interviews are reminiscent of something like The Office in the way they are depicted. This issue employs the use of humor well by showing nerdy characters attempting to be intimidating. |

Batman: One Bad Day (2022): The Penguin #1 |
Oct 19, 2022 |
Batman: One Bad DayPenguin #1 is really a story about Oswald Cobblepot finding true friendship, more than it is about Penguin regaining his criminal empire. He doesnt fit in with society because of his looks, and he wants to be around people who will accept him, warts and all. It shows the Penguin in a sympathetic light, and many readers may be to relate to this aspect of his story. Overall, it was a good spotlight on this classic Batman villain and expanded upon the Penguins character in a fresh, new way. |

Jurassic League (2022) #5 |
Sep 14, 2022 |
The Jurassic League #5 had some great fight scenes and good character development for the major heroes. It sets up the final confrontation between Darkyloseid and the entire Jurassic League for the next issue, and it gives us motive for why the heroes are inspired to fight evil. It does leave you wondering if Jokerzard will end up having a bigger role, or if he only thinks he will. What do you think will happen in the conclusion? |

Batman Beyond: Neo-Year #6 |
Sep 7, 2022 |
Batman Beyond: Neo-Year #6, and the series as a whole, presented a fresh new take on Batman Beyond, seeing him work without Bruce, become his own hero and meet new allies and adversaries along the way. The only downside is the lack of characters from the show. There wasnt really much explanation as to what happened to them, but it still made a good story and stayed true to the feel of the show and the title character. Readers can expect more of Batman Beyond in the future, is the ending reveals that this series will continue next year. Schway! |

Jurassic League (2022) #4 |
Aug 11, 2022 |
The Jurassic League #4 is exciting in that it is leading towards the thrilling conclusion and it reveals the big bad, but it doesnt really offer too much action like in previous issues. It definitely will leave readers wondering how the Leagues confrontation with the big bad will go, especially since this is more of an Elseworlds tale, so it may be somewhat different from what were used to. What do you think will happen when the League confronts this major villain? |

Batman Beyond: Neo-Year #5 |
Aug 3, 2022 |
While Batman Beyond: Neo-Year #5 is kind of slow in terms of the lack of action, which may be disappointing for some readers, it grounds the characters more, specifically Terry, making him more understanding of who Batman is supposed to be. There doesnt seem much chance to see other Batman Beyond characters turn up in the final issue next month, but it sure seems like Lumos may have something more up his sleeve. What do you think will happen in the conclusion? |
