Action Comics (2016) #958

Jun 25, 2016

Action Comics #958 continues all the conflicts presented in the last issue while deepening the plot even further for a more suspenseful and action packed issue. Dan Jurgens in the previousissue, Action Comics #957, lays the foundation for issues to come with Doomsday bursting in the middle of a Lex Luthor vs. Superman fight while including the secretive Mr. Oz watching everything.From the start of issue #957 there are ironically 2 imposters in the comic book, the first one is Superman whichis the Pre-Flashpoint Superman and the second is Clark Kent, the news reporter, who gets all the action live withthe Lex Luthor and Superman fight. #957 sets up all the characters, while #958 just drags out the action to keep issues published bi-monthly to the public.

Flash (2016) #1

Jun 25, 2016

Whenever there is an alteration to the DC Universe, the reason seems to always relates toThe Flash forthe main cause of the altered timeline. In TheFlash : Rebirth, Williamson nails the transition to a more classy Barry Allen and creates a story that lays the foundation for future issues to come. Carmine Di Giandominico's art makes The Flash spark through the pages in The Flash : Rebirth #1 and does so again with The Flash #1.

DC Comics has a 3 issue feat streak with one of the most popular comic book titles in history, Superman. Not only does Patrick Gleason and Peter Tomasi make a storyline that fits perfect for Superman, they make this issue feel alive in the reader by the panels and drawings that have incredible passion in them.

Wonder Woman (2016) #1

Jun 25, 2016

In the past, especially with new 52, Wonder Woman was nagged with comments stating that Dianain new 52 is not the Wonder Woman everyone knows. The most important mess up was the fact that Brian Azzarello changed up Diana's origin story and also changed Wonder Woman to be the goddess of war. Wonder Woman over the past years since the start of new 52, has gotten underplayed in her own title and has been struggling to get an audience.
