What a great comic.

Prior issues was pretty good. Not great but I enjoyed it. Everything in this issue feels rushed and almost incoherent. A 5.0 is generous.

DC Horror Presents... (2024) #3

Difficult one to review. The Adam strange story is close to a 10. Don’t know who Patrick horvath is but that story is great. Batman story is ok. Love the art by FF but pacing is off and it’s too short.

Fantastic Four (2022) #27

Continues to be my favorite marvel book, carried by the writing and Done in one format. Art is good, but I still don’t think they’ve found the perfect artist for this book.

Flash (2023) #16

It’s marvel’s FF with the flash characters. Wally is the focus of this as much as Reed would be in an FF story (note not Fantastic Four but FF). If you like that then you will like this. I don’t know why they are doing this with the flash title and Wally west, but it’s clearly what DC has wanted for decades now. But The execution doesn’t acknowledge Wally’s childhood quality, which it should as raising children can bring one’s own childhood to the surface. Which would be interesting. But perhaps the creators and editors haven’t read those stories. Looking forward to absolute flash.

Didn’t like the story arc. Overall the issue felt very rushed, and a much ado about nothing. Poor character development as well.

It’s ok. I Have to go back and reread from issue 1 to see if this held together or not.

This is a strange book. It reads like old school Claremont X-men. Which is both good and bad. Going to stick with it. At least for a bit.

It’s fun. We will see where it goes. Overall I like the different approaches being taken here as well as two face and new gods.

Nightwing (2016) #120

Very generic so far and kind of boring. Not sure where the Dan Watters that wrote Lucifer, 6 fingers and the detective comics back ups. Will keep reading for a few more issues.

Some improved art and story progression helped this issue. But I still think the artist is not a good fit for the story being told.

Some clunky pacing in the middle but pretty good overall. My bias to like this pushes it to an 8. Liking the art. Reminds me of Sean Phillips.

Pretty good. Nothing particularly impressive here. Very straight forward.

I didn’t like this issue as much as others in this series. There was a lot of telling instead of showing. But I like the creative team and will keep reading.

Wonder Woman (2023) #16

It’s just odd. Why build up a villain like the sovereign and have the take down be like this? Also, to think that the sovereign wouldn’t have the chimp lobotomized is silly. And I’m fine with silly in comics, if it fits your narrative. When I was reading the issue with Diana being starved and having a glass of wine poured over her head, my take was that this wasn’t a silly book. Also, Diana using all allies in the arsenal is enjoyable. But The sovereign would do the same and it would make it more interesting if he did. Showing Diana playing chess and the sovereign playing incompetent is lazy.

Been thinking of dropping this, but I liked this issue. Will see how it goes.
