I mean, doesn't issue 4 answer that question? Or 16?
Eliza's FACE in that one panel. Holy FUCK.
Wherein we discuss theoretical utilitarian arguments like, “Oh no! The kid in the Omelas hole has got a nuke! Runnnnn!”
What a breath of fresh air!
After barely surviving the trials of Mouse Man, Wonder Woman takes a much-deserved night off thanks to her sisters. But are the Amazons ready for their greatest challenge yet? Because in the DC Universe, babysitting always leads to adventure!

I'd love this so much better if it weren't yet another all-the-marbles, multiverse-ending SAGA.
Like: if the series was our favourite heroes doing a wrestling match for charity, the way they once did an Arkham vs. Blackgate baseball match.
Oh...and if the writers were writing based on actual power scales rather than the dull plot armour that lets a normie like the Joker get more
IT'S TAG-TEAM TIME! As the Omega Tournament reaches its endgame, the final eight combatants are put to the ultimate test–confronted with a decades-long stay in their own personal hell!

Somewhere in Coast City, Jo Mullein is babysitting a comatose Hal Jordan… at her ex-wife’s place. Awkward doesn’t cover it. Meanwhile, Agents Simon Baz and Kari Limbo are getting closer to the mysteries of Evergreen—and so is Hector Hammond and his top assassin…the man called Nemesis!
Jo Mullein finds herself in the crosshairs of the bounty hunter Goldface!
The artist worked hard and deserves the few points they get for putting a shine on this infantile trash.
Stay dead, for fuck's sake.
The Nemesis trilogy concludes with this extra-sized finale as the final fate of the character and our world is revealed and we find out if FBI agent Kitty Tepper manages to destroy him from inside his gang.
The most outrageous finale of all time!

With all the power of A.I.M. in her golden glove, she's turning the screws on the world's strangest roommates...but will the goosome twosome squish under the pressure? Or is Madame Masque waking up the monster wi...
It's witty and charming, and the art sings. But I really couldn't care less about the space opera Kelly is building in the background, Hellgate is just this decade's Morlun, and the writing really needs to let Peter remember he had a long, rich, full life after his Uncle Ben died.
May spent most of his life as his sole parent! Did she make no impact on him at all?
SPIDEY VS. HELLGATE, ROUND TWO! The spacefaring SPIDER-MAN heads back to Earth - only to find HELLGATE standing in his way! Spider-Man's finally strong enough to beat the most powerful foe he's ever faced…right?!

Six months ago, Tony Star...
You all got that Immortus is another alt version of Tony Stark, right?

Spinning out of Deniz Camp and Juan Frigeri's ULTIMATES comes the culmination of ULTIMATE INVASION… Two (thousand) years have passed in the Ultimate Universe, but inside the City, the Maker has had thousands of years to prepare for his return!...
Comic of the year, I gotta say.
When Jonathan Reason falls asleep, he becomes...something terrible. Captured by scientists at a lab after inadvertently weakening his alter ego, Jon begins hatching a plan to escape, only to hear about a possible cure.
Well, that sure was a fun arc of "Wonder Woman Spearheads Operation Enduring Occupation"
The best-laid plans of Mouse Man have gone awry! With Wonder Woman inspiring an island of people to revolt against their captor, his reign has reached its end. But never underestimate a desperate man, especially one who was once a punchline! Can Wonder Woman and her child survive his wrath?
Man, Gabe's bad opinions are so strong he is getting two reviews.
Some of the biggest names in comics take a turn in the Absolute Universe! Daniel Warren Johnson and James Harren tell tales from Absolute Batman’s early days! How did Bruce acquire his batmobile? And what was it like for Black Mask’s party animals when Batman first hit the scene?
More like "shut TF up", am I right
"H2SH" with Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee Part 5! Batman versus the Bat-Family! Whose side are you on?

THE ULTIMATE FANTASTIC FOUR? Now that the Ultimates are using the Immortus Engine to its full capacity, Doom's dream of the Ultimate Fantastic Four may finally be realized…
Holy peak, Batman. Let me get this out of the way really quickly. Harren and McClaren both did really good jobs here and I liked what they gave us here. That said, Johnson knocked it out of the park with the main story. That story, on its own, gets a 10/10 for me. Warren and McClaren's stories were just gravy. Batman hitting a One Winged Angel was just insane and I loved it so much. The story as a more

Oh, I've been anticipating that happening since the book was first announced. Luckily, the averages I've seen, so far, are great. Hateful people won't be able to hold down how great this book is.
What's honestly crazy is DWJ is on par or very near consistent with how Scot Snyder's writing is for Absolute Batman. I will dare even say this is my favorite annual of all time
Deeply disappointed in this one. Between the awkward character posing, jarring pacing, lack of backgrounds, and panels CRAMMED with expository dialogue, vague waffling and cliches...this was a premise that could have gone somewhere, and it's sad to see it turn out so mediocre.
Assassins, coverups, and incarceration—oh, my! Elmo finds himself in jail with Colonel Honken, who is currently suffering through a pretty bleak identity crisis. Meanwhile, the President meets with the man who killed her predecessor. It’s a jam-packed issue where each character has to confront the unpleasant reality they thought they knew. Plus...
2 YEARS of this tedious bullshit.
Fire this talentless idiot already.
Now that Etta, Emilie, and baby Lyssa have been saved, Wonder Woman sets her sights on rescuing a whole society. After meeting the feline renegades hoping to fight back against Mouse Man’s regime, Diana is inspired to join them and take the dictator down for good. Mouse Man knows not what he’s up against!

How far out is the world that's coming? From across the depths of space, the Blackstars are turning their attention towards Earth... and only Tomar Restands in their way.
The emergence of superheroes has caught the attention of the world…and it’s certainly caught the attention of the people who run it. Ra’s al Ghul, Veronica Cale, Elenore Thawne, Hector Hammond, and the mysterious “Joker” have worked at cross-purposes until now, but this growing threat requires new ways of thinking…and new partnerships. ...
