The Bat-Man: First Knight (2024) #2

Apr 9, 2024

An improvement on an already fantastic first issue! It has its problems no doubt, but nothing that severely disrupts my enjoyment. The story is still intriguing, the art is stunning and the dialogue has improved, if only a bit. I struggle to think of anyone who wouldn't enjoy this in some way. Come on man, has got purple gloves and knuckle dusters. What's not to like? I feel like this is one of the best Bat books releasing right now and I'm sad it's coming to an end so soon. All good things must come to an end!

The Bat-Man: First Knight (2024) #3

May 21, 2024

This brings us to the end of First Knight. It's been one of my favourite Black Label series (not that there's much competition) and I'm really glad I got a chance to review it. the ending doesn't completely land for me, but it's more so tolerable than bad. It's a shame that this is my least favourite issue of the bunch but hey, at least I got to see those purple gloves.

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries (2024) #4

Apr 2, 2024

It's alright. I think it's fair to say that I didn't enjoy it as much as last month's, but it's not terrible by any stretch of the imagination. My best advice would be to pick one up for a kid, or maybe wait for a the trade so you can pick it up whenever you need some lighthearted reading.

The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries (2024) #5

May 7, 2024

:Better than last month's issue for me, and I appreciated the story and art direction. This series does have me wishing for an issue with a different twist next month. Maybe with a different Batman like Terry or Dick? These adventures are fun one-offs don't get me wrong, but you know what they say about variety being the spice of life,

Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong (2023) #6

Mar 19, 2024

I am afraid that this review will give the impression that I hate this book. I don't, though I'm not exactly its biggest fan either. While I said I didn't expect much in the way of writing for this story, I would've liked to have been proven wrong. It's gone exactly where I thought it was and the only thing I'm left wondering is how they're going to manage to wrap everything up in one issue.

Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong (2023) #7

May 21, 2024

When the last issue was released, I claimed that I didn't hate this series. While I still wouldn't say I hated it, I definitely like it less. What annoys me the most is that I should have loved this issue! It has everything I expected, so why didn't I like it? It just doesn't feel cohesive in the atmosphere with the rest of the series. So far we've had inconsistent character designs, but this issue has a whole different problem with consistency. I'm sure it'll satisfy the Monsterverse fans out there, but I don't see many other people who would enjoy it.
