M1sf1r3 reviewed Punchline #1 Nov 10, 2020
Prelude:
Well apparently DC decided to give us a Punchline one-shot for some reason with way too many variant covers. Makes me wonder which character is going to be thrusted onto us readers more? The Batman Who Laughs or Punchline. Anyway, let's get this over with.
The Good:
It's been a good while since we've seen Bluebird, feels good to have her back and looking to have more more

LAURA KINNEY EMBRACES HER DESTINY. HERE! COMES! WOLVERINE!
X-23 was created to be a weapon and for a time, that's all she was. But with the help of her mentor, LOGAN-the original WOLVERINE-she escaped that dark past. Tragically, Logan has fallen, but Laura will continue in his footsteps as a hero. Recent events have her doing everything in her ...
M1sf1r3 reviewed X-Men / Fantastic Four 4x Oct 30, 2020
Trade Summary:
X-Men/Fantastic Four: 4X is a fun story with plenty to enjoy and great art from the Dodsons. It was great seeing the X-Men get called out for their actions in current continuity. My main problem come from the feeling that everyone is an antagonist from the X-Men to Fantastic Four to Doctor Doom (though the last one doesn't come as a shock). This made it highly questionabl more
/4x-TP_small.jpg)
Wayward son! Every known mutant lives on Professor X's newly forged island paradise of Krakoa - except for one. And now the X-Men feel that it's time for Franklin Richards to come home. There's only one problem: What does his Fantastic family have to say about that? As lines are drawn, the X-Men face down the Fantastic Four - and nothing will ever ...

Rated T+
M1sf1r3 reviewed All-New Wolverine #1 Oct 25, 2020
Prelude:
Finally picked up All-New Wolverine as to expand my X-Men collection beyond current Hickman era titles and Taylor is one of my favourite writers (Note to self: Get X-Men Red). Let's see how this first issue goes.
The Good:
In one issue and with very little knowledge of Laura beforehand, Taylor sells me on both Laura and her role as Wolverine.
I love Laura's more

M1sf1r3 reviewed Batman: Three Jokers #1 Aug 24, 2020
Prelude:
Lucky for me, Three Jokers #1 hit iBooks in Australia today. Well, this has been in the making since Darkseid War so there's a lot of hype for this. Hope this delivers after the long wait.
The Good:
Wow.... can I just say everything?
I love the introductions for each character with the captions and flashbacks adding more layers.
Always love a de more

M1sf1r3 reviewed Seven Secrets #1 Aug 12, 2020
Prelude:
I'm not one to usually read Indie titles though I'm trying to change that, I usually stick with superhero stuff. But this is from my boy, Tom Taylor so I must check it out.
The Good:
I like the characters in this but it's Taylor so what did you expect.
Simple enough premise but it's a fun one.
Nicuolo's art is good.
The Bad:
Felt more

M1sf1r3 reviewed Action Comics #1022 Jul 29, 2020
Prelude:
Well.... Metropolis Burning was definitely.... something. Let's hope The House of Kent is better.
The Good:
It was nice seeing the Kents again.
The Bad:
Continuity is rather weird with Connor and Clark.
Characterization of Brainiac-5 is way off.
JRJR art just isn't working for me still.
Conclusion:
That was an issu more
/1022_small.jpg)
First, Metropolis was hit with the biggest ground battle in the history of the city and barely survived. On top of that, Leviathan threw down his gauntlet for the entire world to see, and Superman revealed the truth of his identity as Clark Kent. Now the city is in a state of shock-and Clark and Conner Kent need to figure out what's next for them a...
M1sf1r3 reviewed Batman #94 Jul 19, 2020

I love how all the stakes are against Bruce.
Really enjoyed seeing more of Early Bruce.
Catwoman is really well done here.
Love the Cool Room.
The Bad:
Okay, now that is just a straight up misleading cov more
/94_small.jpg)
The Designer’s machinations have left Batman’s life in tatters! Gotham City’s ambitious rebuilding has skittered to a halt as new powers are rising to shape its destiny-and Batman is powerless to stop them! With no Alfred or Bat-Family to lean on, the Dark Knight stands alone against the ascendance of his greatest adversary!
M1sf1r3 reviewed Batman #93 Jul 19, 2020
Prelude:
Absolutely loved the last issue and as we gear up for Joker War, I am so ready for what comes next.
The Good:
Love how Designer ties everything from the original meeting together with his overarching plan to the current events unfolding.
I'm enjoying the difference between Harley and Punchline.
March's art is great yet again.
The Bad:
more
/93_small.jpg)
Batman faces off with the Designer as "Their Dark Designs" reaches its epic climax! In the last year, Batman has lost more than he could have imagined, and now he faces a cost so dear it will change the course of his life. And there is worse on the horizon. In the midst of all the horror, he can feel the drumbeat of battle. "Joker War" is coming, a...
M1sf1r3 reviewed Batman #92 Jul 19, 2020
Prelude:
I've been loving Tynion's Batman so far so let's jump back on the train so I can catch up.
The Good:
Enjoyed Riddler here.
The Penguin and Bullock scene was nice.
March's art was rather good this issue.
I'm really starting to like Punchline more and more.
Intrigued to see where next issue goes.
The Bad:
Nothi more
/92_small.jpg)
The greatest heist in history is underway in Gotham City, courtesy of the mysterious crimemaster known as the Designer! Batman knows what he needs to do, but in order to stop the plot, he must first escape the most ingenious death trap the Riddler has ever devised!
M1sf1r3 reviewed Star Wars: Doctor Aphra #1 Jul 19, 2020
Prelude:
Not too sure about this title but I said I'd read all the Star Wars comics so here I am.
The Good:
I enjoy Aphra here.
The objective is interesting.
The Bad:
It's a tad boring.
Conclusion:
It's a decent start but it needs to be more interesting to really appeal to me.
/1_small.jpg)
NEW CREW, NEW MISSION!
With the Rebel Alliance back on the run after their defeat at the Battle of Hoth, it's never been a more dangerous time for outlaws, scoundrels and the errant rogue archaeologist to make their way in the galaxy. But after a string of bad luck and near escapes, DOCTOR APHRA is back on the job! She's been keeping a low prof...
M1sf1r3 reviewed The Terrifics #27 Jul 19, 2020
Prelude:
The first issue of this arc was good so let's see if that continues.
The Good:
I enjoyed the T-Council.
Some nice character development.
The Bad:
Silas is rather grating for me.
Conclusion:
It's a nice issue of the Terrifics. Nothing too much to rave on about though.
Scientists of the world unite! When Simon Stagg sabotages Mr. Terrific's latest world-changing invention, reinforcements are needed. Enter the Terrific Council: Blue Beetle! The Atom! Man-Bat! Shay Veritas! Dhalua Strong! (Just hum a theme song in your head, it'll be more exciting that way.) Looks like Michael Holt has been building a real path to ...
M1sf1r3 reviewed Teen Titans #41 Jul 19, 2020
Prelude:
Teen Titans was passable last issue, but man the review scores do not look good. Here we go.
The Good:
Nothing.
The Bad:
Well that was an extremely cliche solution.
Time for another team that has fallen apart arc. Hang on, hasn't this happened already?
Conclusion:
Look, it's an issue but I just felt nothing reading it.
/41_small.jpg)
At the gates of heaven itself, the Teen Titans must battle Djinn's older brother Elias with the fate of the world hanging in the balance! But victory comes at a terrible cost-because one of the Teen Titans won't be making it back!
M1sf1r3 reviewed Shazam! #12 Jul 19, 2020
Prelude:
I guess it's time for an interlude for Shazam.
The Good:
I enjoyed the art weirdly enough.
Really well written Batman here.
The Bad:
I wish that we had this after Seven Magiclands or that it didn't interrupt it.
Also continuity is ever so slightly screwed since this is before Shazam #1 but Billy mentions Mr. Mind who he doesn't kn more
/12_small.jpg)
Revealing his devious plans, Mr. Mind attacks Billy Batson and the entire Shazam family! Pushed to the limit by a fierce battle against both Black Adam and the Monster Society, can Shazam turn the tide and save himself and his adopted family of friends and fellow heroes?
M1sf1r3 reviewed Justice League #45 Jul 18, 2020
Prelude:
Last issue was rather subpar so let's see how this issue goes.
The Good:
The action was really well done.
Liking the plot.
I really enjoyed Barrows' art.
The Bad:
Nothing.
Conclusion:
For maybe the first time, I actually enjoyed an issue of Venditti's Justice League.
/45_small.jpg)
The Spirit of Vengeance goes global! After spending untold time in isolation, the Spectre is back, and his thirst for retribution will ripple across the Earth! As old wounds are reopened under the Spectre's unstoppable influence, it's up to the Justice League to stop the conflict. But how can they act on a global stage when they must first contend ...
M1sf1r3 reviewed Flash #754 Jul 18, 2020
Prelude:
Well, the last two issues were okay but they were really leading to this issue. Hopefully it's good or I'm going to be annoyed.
The Good:
Duce's art is passable.
I do like the novelty of Barry and Eobard teaming up.
The Bad:
The dialogue felt really off this issue.
The lettering and colouring was completely wrong not once but twic more
/754_small.jpg)
The Flash is on the run as "The Flash Age" continues! Paradox accomplished his mission to make everyone see the Flash as a monster-and now Flash and the Reverse-Flash are trapped in a 25th century Central City that hates the Flash family and legacy. Now a wanted man, Flash must turn to an unexpected place to get help to return to his own time!
M1sf1r3 reviewed Dark Nights: Death Metal #2 Jul 14, 2020
Prelude:
Snyder blew me out of the goddamned water with Death Metal #1. Let's see if the ride continues here.
The Good:
JSA!!!! That's always a point from me damnit!
This is all completely crazy and I love it.
I'm not actually that mad at the Darkest Knight.
Loving how much DC continuity is shown here.
Capullo's art is just amazing. more
Get ready to scream! Wonder Woman roars across the horrifying Dark Multiverse landscape in the world’s most demented monster truck, with Swamp Thing riding shotgun! The two arrive at the ghoulish cemetery base of Batman and his army of zombies, but can the former friends stand each other long enough to form a plan and take back the planet? Plus, ...

M1sf1r3 reviewed Marauders #10 Jul 13, 2020
Prelude:
Marauders has consistently been one of my favourite X-Titles currently, so let's see how this issue goes.
The Good:
While I understand the disagreement, that scene is so in character for Emma.
Continuing the developments with Kate and I enjoyed the infographics.
Caselli's art was good.
The Bad:
Nothing.
Conclusion: more
A SHOW OF POWER!
The Marauders set their sights on the power-dampening technology that seems to have made its way into far too many hands - most notably, the Russian Army. The Hellfire's wrath with be swift and harsh.
Rated T+
Prelude:
I've been loving Venom Island but let's see if it can hold up in this finishing and oversized issue.

Really love the theme of this issue.

The twist and turns! Love it.
Was not expecting Ted. But in Taylor I trust.
Art is great.
The Bad:

Conclusion:
A very simple issue but one that proves entertaining and majorly impor more
