Tony reviewed Dark Nights: Death Metal: Robin King #1 Oct 21, 2020
By this point I think Death Metal is some kind of twisted parody of some characters, elements, lore and behaviors from all DC and from that point of view this issue is not so bad.
With a utility belt filled to the brim with weapons designed to kill every hero in the DCU, Robin King is the most sadistic soldier in the Darkest Knight evil army! Can anyone stop him from laying waste to Earth’s last line of defense? And how did he become one of the Batman Who Laugh’s groblins in the first place? And in the backup story, can ...

• Spider-Man. Doctor Doom. 'Nuff said?
• NO WAY! The Chameleon has insane plans that have put all of NYC (and the very future of the universe!) in danger, and only Spider-Man can save the day.

THE FUTURE IS IN PERIL!
• Miguel O'Hara's mysterious return to the present threatens his life and his entire future. But why?
• As for OUR time's Spider-Man, he's got his hands full with classic villains, family problems and international incidents that intertwine in terrifying ways!

Tony reviewed Dark Nights: Death Metal: Death Metal Metaverse's End #1 Sep 29, 2020
Well, for some strange reason I like a lot the art of this book and maybe the story is just Ok but I just love Owlman and Captain Carrot. I think you need to understand and get carried away by the extravagant, rare and even ridiculous story that is being told in this event to be able to enjoy all the issues and especially this one. In this context, I consider this issue to be a quality one, especi more

In her quest for power and dominance, she rules absolutely and in totality, using her children-the Monitors and Anti-Monitors-as her heralds and destructors. But a group of heroes has banded together across multip...
Tony reviewed Batman: Three Jokers #2 Sep 29, 2020
I've to be honest I want more developed the Jason/Barbara "romance". The art makes worth this book. The story is good, I really like this issue, although it leaves a strange feeling, since when I finished reading it I felt as if nothing had happened in the story, but reading it in depth, a lot of things really happen. I hope it's the calm before the storm and the story closes in style.

Artwork.- 5/5 The colors and the Manapul's art is just great maybe this comic is worth just for the art.
Story.- Snyder delivers a good one, this book has a huge value and the payoff comes with the ending. I had a good time with this. I said before that when you tell stories like this you need every book counts, well, this comic counts and counts a lot 4.5/5.
