Batman: Bad Seeds - Gotham General #1
Welcome to General, Gotham City’s tier one trauma center. Power is out, fires are burning, transpo is shot, and the calls just keep coming. There are more patients than beds, half presenting with respiratory complications, the other half suffering hallucinogenic psychotic episodes. In every other emergency department in the DCU, this would be a cat...

It’s fairly interesting but all in all this was a “mid” event.

The artwork and script are spectacular.

Absolute Batman #25
All the villains. All the heroes. All the stakes. What’s left…of Absolute Batman?
The artwork is beautiful but the story is not very interesting.

Uncanny X-Men #37
SOMBER STEEL VS. ADAMANTIUM! KILLER VS. KILLER! After the shocking events of WILD RIDE, some of the UNCANNY X-MEN take a much-needed break to recover and lick their wounds, leaving the WOLVERINE to stand watch over them in their vulnerable state!
This takes a left turn into less interesting territory. Not as good as issue 1.

I really enjoyed this, especially the artwork.

Action Comics #1103
He is Superman’s greatest enemy…he was Clark Kent’s school-age contemporary. He’s been the President of the United States…and the world’s most wanted super-villain. He is Lex Luthor, and this is his story. From the epic Action team of Mark Waid and Patricio Delpeche comes the definitive origin of the greatest criminal mind of our time…if you surviv...
Not bad but kind of a letdown.

Light on action but still interesting.

SINS OF THE FATHER PART III SPIDER-MAN made a mistake. He got in the way. Now Jeff Morales' past isn't just back to haunt him. Miles' friends and family could all end up as collateral. Jeff may be complicit in this villain's rise...but what role did the Kingpin of Crime play?
Fast paced story with stunning artwork.

Another solid installment.

The Fury of Firestorm #7
The dust settles after the explosive climax in Pittsburgh, and Firehawk is left to pick up the pieces and answer questions from the Justice League. Can Lorraine explain Ronnie’s actions, and just what does this mean for the future of Firestorm?!
This is moving at a snail’s pace. I’m still interested to see where this goes.

Six of Us #2
Chapter 2: “The Thing About Killing That Guy”
Before the funeral, before the reunion, before the fall—there was a hit sitcom.
America loved The Six of Us. Six young stars. Endless laughs. Perfect chemistry. But behind the scenes, a different story was unfolding.
Told between the bright glow of a ‘90s laugh tra...
Definitely the slowest issue of the series. Still decent.

And for David Colton, what is the price of all that great power? See where the pieces fall in preparation for Chip Zdarsky and Marco Checchetto's AVENG...
Although it’s interesting, the burn is a little too slow for single issues. It seems like this will read better as a trade.

Deep in the Ozark Mountains lies the village of Dooney Hollow, hidden away from modern society for over a century. Its existence is only spoken of around campfires, in hushed tones, by people who don’t necessarily believe. Those who stumble upon Dooney Hollow never return to prove that it’s real, because dark forces lurk in the woods just outside t...

This was a lot of fun! I’ll be back for issue 2.

12-Foot Skeleton #1
This might be Lola and Jimmy’s last Halloween. Not because they’re aging out at 12-years-old... there's a 12-foot-tall lawn skeleton on a rampage in their neighborhood!
Lola is a triple threat of social suicide: goth girl, new kid, and outspoken feminist. Meanwhile, Jimmy is a bookish, quiet, bullied kid trying to enjoy his favorite ho...
It’s frustrating that the story wasn’t wrapped up within the series.

Batman: Bad Seeds - Gotham Central #2
Trapped on the last operational subway out of Gotham City, Officers Gordon and Espinoza, Anarky, Dr. Annika Zeller, and private investigator Harvey Bullock find themselves at each other’s throats in a deadly pressure cooker situation—with none other than Mr. Zsasz at its center.
