2020 Machine Man #1
Feb 28, 2020 |
I will always support anything Machine Man-related because hes another one of my favorites in terms of more obscure heroes. Christos Gage obviously has respect for the character by giving him an interesting story thread in trying to win back Jocasta. Andy MacDonald and Dono Sanchez-Almara bring it with the art, even if I dont find it especially appealing aside from the coloring. Machine Man 2020 #1 does end up being a fun experience, even if its going to be a fairly short one. |

Over all, without spoiling things, this book gets a happy ending and warms my heart as a Machine Man fan. Christos Gage writes the character fantastically well and I would love to see another miniseries from this team, especially with Andy MacDonald on art and Dono Sanchez-Almara on colors. This book was a ton of fun and worth bearing the name of Machine Man for what has proved to be a VERY good event so far. |

With the sheer amount of love that Ant-Man has received since Scotts movie debut, maybe this book will be successful enough to launch a new set of Ant-based series in the future. Al Ewing, Tom Reilly, Jordie Bellaire and Cory Petit all seem to be having fun with this book and were glad to be along for the ride! |

I loved the story that Ewing told through this book and I'm glad that Reilly is such a versatile artist that he was able to capture several styles while still having his own flair and Bellaire's awesome coloring making it look very pretty.

Batgirl #49 succeeds at being an interesting story about family and how Batgirls double life not only puts her in danger, but also her family and even people that look like her when the wrong person sets their sights on the hero. Though, its rushed and anticlimactic ending as mandated by an editorial cancellation knocks down what could have been an amazing five-issue arc if it needed to be. |

Batman/Superman is an intriguing series so far. Though solicitations have spoiled the mystery, the journey of getting to the end is what matters as TBMWL is on a collision course with The Legion of Doom. Marquezs art is amazing and Joshua Williamson pens a good script, but knowing TBMWL will always win because he can outsmart everyone takes a bit of the drama away. The series is worth continuing, but given the overpowered villain, who knows for how long? |

This issue of Batman/Superman was nothing but non-stop action and future set-up. I love that the new crop of villains are former heroes that have had their inhibitions removed and will likely remain that way for the foreseeable future. Joshua Williamson has scripted an awesome story, made real with David Marquezs dynamic art, Alejandro Sanchezs beautiful coloring and John J. Hills expert lettering. The Batman Who Laughs is genuinely a credible threat and things are looking dire for the DC Universe after this amazing issue. |

Together, they are some of the most dangerous heroes ever assembled under the command of one of the deadliest and smartest villains around. Joshua Williamson and David Marquez made for an excellent team with stellart and writing, so this issue is absolutely worth reading. |

This book was very emotional and did well with painting our heroes with flaws. Its not often that some mistakes come back to haunt them, but Joshua Williamson is doing everything he can to make sure that The Worlds Finest are better heroes because of it. This issue had fantastic writing and even better art, giving it the double whammy of awesomeness needed to guarantee returning readers. With Marquez leaving the book with this issue and Nick Derington as his replacement, I think it may suffer a little, but not by much because Derington is great. |

This issue is quite mediocre, unfortunately. Peter J.

Christian Duce's art saves this book from being a complete waste of time and I would recommend it on that merit alone, but youre just as well waiting until this short arc is finished before jumping back in when Mr. Freeze becomes the main villain for the next few months. |

Tomasi and Doug Mahnke have been allowed to go hog wild with the stories theyre telling and seamlessly weaving it into Year of the Villain only makes it so much better. So while this issue lacked the emotional impact of the last few, it was still dramatic and interesting to read. |

I did love this issue as much as I wanted Freeze to actually have a happy ending. I feel like there was nothing more that anyone could do with his character and thats why he hasnt seen much use in so many years. At the same time, I also feel like Nora herself is just taking on the personality of Mr. Freeze from The Batman tv show from 2005. Its not bad, but I suppose we dont have enough of a motivation from her to continue committing crimes aside from some small feeling of entitlement over not being able to live her life. But the art was fantastic and we finally have an ending for one of the most tragic sagas in Batman history, even if it wasnt what everyone was expecting. |

After an annual that posed him as an unstoppable being that can topple any threat and his current war with Flashpoint Thomas Wayne, its nice to see Batman come back to street level threats in a wholesome, but dramatic comic. Its doubly nice to see him interacting Damian again given their lack of contact for the better part of a year or so. In an age where every conflict is near universal, its always refreshing to have something small-scale. |

As a side story, these two issues havent overstayed their welcome and its a bit refreshing. With Tomasi, the quality of these Detective Comics stories are only getting better and better with him being given the opportunity to tell smaller, self contained stories before getting right into bigger arcs. Scott Godlewski on art was a really good choice for the story as his action is heavy and scene setting is near perfect with David Barons accentuating colors. I love the idea of Batman having a Norse themed villain, but substituting that for a monster of indescribable horror is an even better choice! |

Fernando Pasarin and the rest of the art team make this book look so effortlessly cool and good while milking each panel for drama and intensity. Truly, this whole saga of Hawkman is worth reading because of issues like this one. |

Sep 8, 2020 |
Hawkman #27 succeeds as the beginning of a new chapter in Hawkman and Hawkwomans old life. Catering to fans new and old, this story pulls threads from older comics while also sowing seeds for another epic in the making now that theres a real sense of tension in the Hawks life. Robert Venditti and his team continue to make this one of the best written comics that DC is currently publishing and one of the best drawn as well. |

The Human Target might be the noir hit of the year. While not exactly an obscure character, The Human Target has never quite been the most popular either. But with the quality that this team has put out so far, it's doing much better than we could have expected. Tom King, Greg Smallwood and Clayton Cowles have managed to pull off something amazing with The Human Target and heres to hoping they continue hitting the mark. |

The Human Target is the noir mystery of the year. Tom King, Greg Smallwood and Clayton Cowles have put together an excellent story full of drama, some action and a lot of romance. For a character that hasnt been used in any capacity in years, this is definitely one of the best stories he could have gotten. While I dont expect this to be a complete revival of the character, I surely would love to see more new stories about his exploits and how he interacts with the further superhero community. |

Punchline (2020) #1
Nov 10, 2020 |
Punchline #1 does a lot right with trying to endear a new villain to us and I like the idea of her. She has every potential to be as terrifying as Joker is, but on a broader scale than Gotham City if she wanted, but her obsession with the Clown Prince of Crime hampers what could be a breakout role for herself. Tying her identity so close to such a prominent villain has a chance to overshadow her bright future, but James Tynion IV and whoever his team going forward with her will be has a chance to create a lasting character in Punchline. |

I dont really know where the story is going here. I didnt even mention the forgettable Bizarro/Artemis segments because that storyline stopped being interesting after they stopped the Future War in their annual. I guess it could still be a wild ride with Jason Todd and his new kids, but this issue is ultimately skippable. Not even DOOMED could save it from that. |

Red Hood: Outlaw #39 may not have lived up to my hopes of it becoming a darker and grittier tale of Jason Tood finally striking out on his own as a grim vigilante, but I cant help but like this arc. Jason is a good teacher and his students are interesting potential future villains. Id recommend it for Rocaforts art alone, but I have to hand it to Scott Lobdell for giving this book some heart. |

The book moved incredibly slow for me and not even though it had good developmental moments for our new characters, the book felt like it was missing something. More than likely, Im just tired of this kind of story or dont really care where Jason Todd is as a character at the moment. Its not particularly compelling and this whole arc just feels like its to give Jason something to do since Bizarro and Artemis were stuck in future Earth for much longer than they needed to be and no one knows what to do with the bad boy of the bat family. There might be a clear direction for this, but I just dont see it and honestly, youd be better off skipping this one. |

This issue was very okay. It didnt have quite the explosive action of previous issues, nor many great character moments, but it does succeed at least being a fun time filler. Paolo Pantalena only continues to get better at art and it was accentuated by Arif Priantos excellent colors. If you were a fan of Lobdells New 52 Red Hood and the Outlaws and hoped that stories of that ilk would continue, this is certainly the issue for you. |

Rorschach (2020) #1
Oct 13, 2020 |
I like Tom Kings work for the most part and first issues have a high bar to reach for continued reading, but this one just misses the mark in both regards. Whether this ambivalence is due to fatigue from Doomsday Clock, the HBO show or just simply wanting the world of Watchmen to take a rest, I dont have the highest of hopes for this series as it just seems superfluous at best. Jorge Forns and Dave Stewart are almost worth it, but its not enough. |

Through Tom Kings fine writing and the fantastic artwork between Jorge Fornes and Dave Stewart, this issue of Rorschach was a treat. Blending gritty detective storytelling with near minimalist art, this creative team is weaving a great mystery, though as it continues, I hope it finds more ways to tie into the Watchmen universe outside of just a few references and the titular heroes name. |

While not on the same exact level as the last issue, Tom King and his creative team continue to weave the mystery of The Kid and the Squid, making the hole deeper and more interesting with each entry in the story.

Rorschach has had its ups and downs, but ultimately doesnt justify its existence like all other adaptations, sequels or spin-offs of Watchmen. Tom King is a great writer, Jorge Forns is an amazing artist, Dave Stewart is a fantastic colorist and Clayton Cowles is a stellar letterer. The team for this book is phenomenal and they did a good job with us until it fizzled out at the end. Ultimately this series is worth a read, but maybe only just the one. |

This book could be sold on its beautiful art alone, but the story within is absolutely cute and adorable as well. Peak teen drama that's actually readable. Rainbow Rowells method of storytelling in regards to the Runaways has been unorthodox, but that approach has paid off. Its little one offs like this that build character for two relatively lesser characters in the grand scheme of the Marvel Universe. I want to see more of them together and hopefully this new upcoming Doc Justice arc gives that to us. |

This issue is a take it or leave it. It moves forward the story to show exactly how and why the Runaways are going to become part of the new J-Team, but a next issue recap could do just the same. If youre a die hard Runaways fan, then this issue wont be any different than any other exposition dumps that have been written over their years. Its a good, solid effort, but not exactly necessary. |

Nov 29, 2019 |
Runaways continues to be Marvels best slice of life/teen drama series and with good reason. Rainbow Rowell really gets inside the heads of these characters and tells amazing, (although a bit slow) stories with each of them. This particular issue had fun moments, but otherwise had very little going on aside from Gerts continuing struggle to fit in amongst her gifted friends. It was solid, but not the greatest thing in the world. |

I enjoyed this issue of Runaways for what it was. It certainly wasnt the best of them by far, but Andres Genolets art always makes for a fun experience with expressive faces and a happier tone with Cunniffes light coloring. Rainbow Rowell also takes her time with the story, not rushing things to get to a conclusion and that makes for an easy reading experience as we dont have to worry about too many story threads at once. Ultimately, this issue was another easy read in a pretty decent series so far. |

I do love the slow burn that Rainbow Rowell is doing right now. As stated in previous reviews, the Runaways' story is one that doesnt need high action set pieces and a constantly moving plot to be engrossing and entertaining. The best part of this series so far is the character aspects of it and how were getting far more of Gert Yorkes than we did before she died. Andres Genolets art continues the signature of this series and compliments the slice-of-life style of it. Rowells writing, Genolets art and Cunniffes colors make this another great issue, even if fairly okay by its own standards. |

This last issue was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. Rainbow Rowell told an amazing story with this six part story and cracked The Runaways just a little bit. Andres Genolet and Dee Cunniffe absolutely smash it on the art, giving everything a tense feeling and dynamic colors. They really make you believe that Doc Justice is a true villain and make this arc worth reading. Overall, this was a dark and fitting end to one of the better Runaways arcs since the book restarted! |

With solicitations hinting that Supergirl is getting cancelled (again) after issue #42, I shouldnt be so hard on her, but I want this series to end. The Infected storyline has deflated and brought Supergirl down with it. It would have been better off if things just continued in the pages of Hell Arisen instead. For a series that came back with a good purpose, its lost its direction by being caught between two event stories while not capitalizing on either. |

He's as strong as Superman with the recklessness of a teenager and he is dripping with evil. This one-shot is the first of hopefully many excellent stories of The Batman Who Laugh's Secret Six. If you have ever asked what would happen if Billy and Teth Adam switched alignments, this is a GREAT answer and a good read. |

Waller vs. Wildstorm is an interesting concept that lays the ground work for a very thrilling tale of betrayal and violence. With excellent and layered writing from Spencer Ackerman and Evan Narcisse, awesome art by Jesus Merino, Vicente Cifuentes and Mike Atiyeh and stellar letters from Dave Sharpe, this miniseries is off to a rocking great start! |

I have my opinions on Brian Michael Bendis' writing style when it comes to teenage characters, but so far he's managed to do a well enough job that I keep coming back. With great art from the two artists and their inkers and colorists, Young Justice is still a fun story with great characters, especially the emerging ones. |

This Young Justice series hasnt quite been what Ive been expecting from it thus far. BMB is a (sometimes) good storyteller, but Young Justice hasnt managed to capture my attention as much as I thought it would. Even with the return of my beloved Conner and Tim isnt enough to make this amazing. John Timms art is fantastic and stylish, but I just couldnt find enough to care about in this issue. |
