If you, like me, were turned off by the Batman Who Laughs/Infected arc, you will find some relief in this new arc from Williamson and team. Zod breaking his truce and returning to Earth as well as Ra's presence is bound to bring some good action over the next few issues. One can only imagine the role the resurrected Kandorians will play. Knowing the characters Bruce and Clark are dealing with, I would expect a swerve at some point before this arc is over. |

I'm disappointed that the series ends with this issue. However, I appreciate that Brisson ended the title in a way that leaves the door open for future missions. Batman Incorporated plays an important part in the Batman mythos. Despite Bruce not appearing in the series, you see his influence throughout the twelve issues. This was particularly the case as the team became willing to push back on Ghost-Maker as he pressured them to willfully kill members of Joker Inc. |

As someone who has always been a fan of Peter Tomasi, especially since his run on Batman and Robin, I initially found it difficult to review this issue in a positive manner. Now over a year since arriving on Detective Comics, I'm still stuck trying to figure out where Tomasi is trying to take Batman. While it seems he is trying to put more “detective” into Detective Comics, it didn't come across right on the first read. I can only hope that this will improve and things flow smoother moving forward. |

Revolution 9 (2024) #1
Sep 28, 2024 |
Revolution 9 #1 is a good kick off to the series. It ends with several thought-provoking questions that I hope get answered by the time the final issue arrives. I hope the series lays better groundwork as to how it fits in to this new universe Mad Cave and its creators are developing. |

It's easy to get lost in this story if you are not reading the tie-ins. I have read some, but not all of them, which leads me to missing out on how some things are in the over-arcing story. |

It is great having the original team back together for the new series. For those who followed the first run, it feels like it never ended. For new readers, there is not a lot lost if you want to catch up. I'm just happy my favorite green bombshell is back. |

If anyone ever questions why this series was nominated for an Eisner last year, give them a copy of She-Hulk #8. It is as perfect an issue as Rainbow Rowell and Andrs Genolet could produce in this run. |

This is the lowest I've seen Jen in this entire run as she worries about her relationship with Jack. Rainbow Rowell has made She-Hulk the strongest, both physically and mentally than I've seen her in years. With mixed emotions, I wait to see how she brings this series to a close. |

I now feel I need to read this series (the main story, not just Blood Hunt). I am easily suckered into reading all thing New Orleans whether good or bad. But this first installment of the Blood Hunt tie-in was actually pretty good watching the youngsters wanting to help. |

The Next Batman: Second Son #2
May 4, 2021 |
Whatever issues that I have had with Future State: The Next Batman are slowly being answered. John Ridley has put together a great story that slowly shows Tim's/Jace's transition to the mantle. In doing so, he fills in plenty of the holes left by Future State. This has made the series much more enjoyable. |

Despite the weak artwork, Second Son continues to be a strong book in continuing Jace Fox's ascension to the mantle of the next Batman. Hopefully, Ridley can bring a bang to the final issue. Unfortunately, considering we will be getting another series this year from him, it's more than likely things will end on a whimper. |

After three great issues, Ridley ends Second Son on a flat note as he prepares for the next phase in his story of the Fox family and Jace's ascension to the mantle of Batman with I Am Batman. Hopefully, the story ends better than its predecessor. |

I remain pleased with the way Tom King is continuing Diana's journey in Wonder Woman #10. I give him credit for baiting and reeling me in as a follower. I hope that he doesn't disappoint in the end as he's been guilty of before. Diana deserves the pedestal he currently has her on as a member of the Trinity. |
