I’m not a Fire & Ice fan, but I did want to read this as a first try. Is it really that bad?
Meh. Too many changes to the main character of Bruce Wayne, unbelievable that he can operate without the Batcave or Wayne Manor. I don't care for this art style. Overall not that great for a first issue.
Father and son. Bruce and Damian. Batman and Robin. From Batman vs. Robin to Knight Terrors, a lot has happened to the Dynamic Duo, but now they are back together and ready to fight crime in Gotham--just in time for Batman's most monstrous rogues to team up to turn the city into an urban jungle! A new villain watches from the shadows, intent on rev...
Swing and a big miss. This series is horrible. -10
Continuing the CREED saga under the Creative Direction of Michael B. Jordan
Amara will fight by any means necessary, even if it means going to someone forbidden-someone who lived in the shadow of her grandfather, Apollo Creed.
Will she have what it takes to pass the rigorous test of her new trainer, and navigate the wounds of her family's p...
A ridiculous concept and horrible artwork. Grade: F-
You may know G’nort as the bumbling Green Lantern who protects Space Sector 68. Then again, you may not know G’nort at all. Whatever the case, get ready to see him in his newest role as host and proprietor of this very special swimsuit edition comic! Join our favorite fuzzball as he showcases some of our best swimsuit covers and our most swim-t...
YA stuff that should have remained that and not shoved into continuity - Fire & Ice fans will not see their fav characters after this for a long time because it will 100% not sell
Things could not possibly be worse for Fire and Ice, in Beatriz da Costa's professional opinion. Superman sent the former Justice Leaguers packing for Smallville following an extremely public and utterly disastrous mission (that was all Guy Gardner's fault, thank you very much) and in doing so doomed them to a fate worse than death: irrelevance. Ic...
No. It's super fun and has great potential. I had a really good time reading.
@softboy it depends what you like. It is incredibly silly and definitely is more of a fit for a preteen, but some people enjoy that (not being condescending, at least intentionally), so if that is your bag maybe you will like it, but it is very far from what I enjoy.
HA HA HA...No.

If this is the kind of thing your into, God bless. I knew what this would be from reading the preview story a while back but I wanted to give it a chance since I enjoyed the old Giffen DeMatteis stuff and hoped beyond hope it would at least be decent. Well, it's written fine but it's not my kinda thing at all. It saddens me as I know we wont see these two characters again for years. This is cumore

The art in the book isn't the greatest, it's strong is some places but then the artist gets lazy and fills in some pages with little more than sketches.
The plot for the A story is pretty basic with an interesting premise but then the writer decided to go nowhere with it. A story with Supergirl and Martian Manhunter as the main characters...Yawnfest. It could have and should have bee more
It is a creature beyond reason-and the only force in the universe strong enough to kill Superman. It’s Doomsday, the living embodiment of death, destruction, and evolution! In the wake of Dark Crisis and Lazarus Planet, King Doomsday now sits on a throne of skulls across a river of blood, holding court over the demons that swarm in the depths of ...
Hey kids! Do you like Superman? Do you like stories that feature him as the main character and focus of the book? Well guess what? This book only has Superman in it for a grand total of 5 pages. That's right, it's a total bait and switch. So enjoy reading a Superman Annual that has Lois Lane as the main character and focuses on secondary and some third rate supporting cast!An annual book shomore
Lois Lane is now editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet, but at heart she’ll always be an investigative reporter. And lately Metropolis has had a whole new set of secrets she must uncover. Even if it means investigating her own husband…Superman! Featuring Livewire, Parasite, and Mercy, this special issue is your next big puzzle piece leading to a ...
This entire series and story line is hitting it right out of the ball park. THIS is Star Trek.
Don't miss out on the lead up to the Day of Blood crossover event between the Star Trek and Star Trek: Defiant ongoing series! Lieutenant Shaxs receives visions from the Bajoran Prophets. He sees his past and his future, and he sees the trial of Benjamin Sisko. The crew of the Theseus must fight their way back together a...
At best.

Superman and Metallo must reluctantly join forces to stop the Cyborg Superman. With Tracy Corben's life (or at least her humanity) h...
Boring conclusion, with the intro of a new female villian at the end that just feels forced. Of the two books Superman has the better story telling right now. Action is a jumbled mess.

Meh. Bringing back Cyborg Superman and Eradicator but "Not Really" is a bait and switch by the writer to bump lackluster sales. Ever shift the dynamic with long lasting reprecussions or don't bother. Main story was decent, back up stories were unneeded.
Superman's true enemy has been revealed: the Cyborg Superman, Hank Henshaw! Everything the Super-Family has built stands on a knife's edge, and Superman and Metallo become the unlikeliest of allies as they hunt for Metallo's missing sister. Can they prevent the inevitable devolution of Metallo's mind and body long enough to save his sister from Hen...
Big build up for a reveal that doesn't really shift anything. This arc is just an excuse to introduce new characters and villians which are all female. How about that?
Written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson, Dan Jurgens, and Dorado Quick Art by Rafa Sandoval, Dan Jurgens, and Yasmin Flores Montanez As Superman and Natasha Irons race to save Steel from the newly transformed Metallo, the Super-Twins are lost--and alone--against the nightmarish threat of the Necrohive! How will Lois and the House of El find them? Plus, ...
For the price point this book could have just had a single story instead of the 2 extra stories. Just put Jurgens back on as the main writer and things will be fine. Honestly there are too many supporting characters now to develop or even care about. Clean house kill 2/3's of them off, (Jon,Power Girl, Kenan, and the Twins can all be 86'd.
"No livin' thing's supposed to have power like this. No matter how blue your eyes are or how pretty your face is, you're just as much a monster as me." War rages on between Metropolis's two men of steel, Superman and Metallo! As Metallo's new body continues to evolve in unexpected and nightmarish ways, the voice of his "operating system" has been c...
The final failure by Meghan Fitzmartin on Robin is here. Does DC have a charity program for writers? Is that how such a writer is hired time and again despite constant fan backlash? When she gets her own series she gets torn apart in the reader reviews. Even the comic book sites can't always suck up to DC when it comes to her. DC can't hide her lack of talent this way or gouge extra money outmore
Robin and Batwoman are trapped in the lair of the Chaos Monsters! Will they be able to escape with their sanity intact?
An ending to a series that should of on paper been a very long run. DC has no one to blame but themselves for their own failings. When you can't get more than 10 issues due to low sales for an established character that had a previous run of 183 issues the problem isn't the chracter it's the writer.

The way this story arc has been written, it's clearly aiming for these emotional hits and getting people to react to these moments. The story and its characters have taken a distant second. In Fitzmartin's attempt to create a constant run of angst and drama, it seems she's forgotten what you actually need to make any of those plot beats resonate: defined characters with readers invested in them anmore

deep breath Only two issues left, only two issues left…
Alright let’s get to the positives, this intro is actually kinda good. There is a decent narrative flow, Tim using his analytical mind that’s communicated in a visually interesting way. The art looks good throughout, and the final scene is really haunting and has great use of imagery.
That out of the way, this book more

So, yes, the art is better, and the plot proved a little more linear, with fewer distractions, but the writing still leaves a whole hell of a lot to be desired. Fitzmartin continues to struggle with understanding who Tim is, with showing genuine character interactions, and the continued failures here render me completely underwhelmed with this new arc. I still don't feel much for the characters, emore

WTF was this? Yes, Bernard gets fleshed out in this issue but it's just standard garbage. He's gay, his parents disapprove, he's the better person out of the three. Yawn. And the writing is sooooo bad. Bernard's not supposed to know Tim is Robin but Tim is in the bedroom of their tiny boat home changing from his costume to his suit while Bernard is telling him they're late. How did he not semore
A new dawn rises on Tim Drake and the Gotham Marina as a new chapter of Robin’s story begins! But how long can this sense of calm last with a certain someone still roaming free in Gotham?
It's as if someone from secondary school were writing this. I couldn't imagine liking this comic as much as the 2 or three fans do. I feel like it's so easy to point out the flaws in other people opinions when you've decided, no matter what, that your going to like and defend a comic and be hyper undemanding of a writer or characters history so you can justify calling everyone bigoted because bmore
