It nice that DC is exploring its multiverse and giving some limelight to lesser known characters but this issue was quite messy and the writing poor. The Batwoman Who Laughs was simply a lazy creation.

A decent start which will need to be assessed after issue #2.

The best from Marvel in years.

There were some nice easter-eggs of the ICE CREAM MAN comics.

Now that's a big twist but hopefully it has one more before reaching the end.

So Jennifer cheated but for her that's ok and the husband despite being a good father does not have the right to belittle her for her actions??? This is a really stupid reasoning.

I'm still checking this series to see how more stupid it can get and guess what...IT JUST GETS MORE BULLSHIT than the previous one. Jennifer just playing the victim because she wanted more dick and took it because her husband was busy being a good father and spouse but was not shagging her enough. Poor writing and deserves a ZERO.

Cliche issue

This issue insults SUPERMAN's legacy by trying to say that Superman stole the limelight from Kara and that Kara should have had all that love and respect Clark received; Kara was only to be the protector of Clark and become a superhero though she does achieve success. That's a comic driven by a strong feminist agenda and if it is not the case then, unfortunate it does look as one. Poor writing and absolute garbage.

Not awesome as many are saying it (maybe it is such because Keanu Reeves is involved) but i would say it was enjoyable and quite intriguing. Definitely got me interested for issue #2.

As for the New Justice League it was boring and that part where it says Tim Fox did better than the original Batman sounds really pretentious and quite disrespectful; i suppose that's what you get when you try to force an agenda.

 Preacher #65 Jan 17, 2021

There it is the end of a 66-long epic run to one of the most amazing comic series ever. For some the ending could have been somewhat better but it is a fitting end to Jesse's quest. He finally realizes the most important things in his life and finally let go of all his pride and machoism and accepts that he is human after all and that he deserves happiness. Even at the end we are given another nuance to Jesse's personality showing why he is such a cool character. About Cassidy, we could assume that he will finally be able to live a proper life and not one where he would be a complete trash that only blames his aggressive and selfish nature on circumstances. Tulip is given her reward as well; to be respected and loved without any compromise by Jesse. The Saint of Killers is able to rest after centuries of wandering earth due to the Almighty's fault. That eventually leaves us to ponder about what happens to a world without God? Does it crumbles or does it strives better without His interference? What about Genesis as well(i would have loved Genesis to come back to Jesse)? So much questions left unanswered but they all give PREACHER that uniqueness which ranks it amongst the greatest comic series even made. Really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend others to have a go at this amazing and thrilling Garth Ennis masterpiece.

At this point you will not expect such a twist in Cassidy's background and still we have it and it fits in perfectly.

The bitter sweet origins of the lovable Cassidy

An amazing issue depicting the origins of Cassidy. We could have been thinking he is a prick but Cassidy is a layered character with a tragic background but also a tough guy with a soft heart.

Finally the end of GIDEON FALLS. The ending had some great stuffs like its art and some panels that were mind boggling (that scene where they broke the surface and all the Gideon Falls are shown in cubes). However we cannot omit the fact that the ending was also confusing; here i'm talking about the fact that the barn is also a time machine if i'm not mistaken and also about if whether we have to assume that Danny is now host to the LAUGHING MAN or has Danny become the monster he destroyed in the barn hence his smile at the end? I would say that GIDEON FALLS #27 does end the series on a rather satisfactory note albeit it did feel a bit rushed and really confusing.

Another bizarre and enjoyable issue from ICE CREAM MAN. Great stuff to end 2020.

This issue concludes a brutal and provocative arc that just shows how well Ennis is able to juggle with multiple facets to his storytelling. PREACHER is definitely a series which avid comic book readers (graphic novel lovers especially) should pick up and devour.

It is starting to expand the universe of PREACHER as now we see the bigger picture of it.

It was a sad issue but one which was essential in defining Hughie's purpose; just like Black Noir was the fail-safe to Homelander, so was Hughie to Butcher and he eventually served his purpose. To be frank this issue was one which hits you straight in the heart. Great closure to an epic series. Well done Ennis.

PUNCHLINE is basically a teenage version of Harley Quinn(a tab crazier though) who idolise anarchy. The good part of the story was definitely her blogs which gave a comprehensible insight on how she became enamoured with the Joker and above-all, that part of characterisation came in the first issue itself. However that was it as the story did not really got me interested. We could even find that they copied ideas from THE JOKER movie and simply replaced Arthur Fleck's character with Punchline especially at the part where she narrates how her voice reached the world to tell the joke, how society could not get the joke and also the clown mask. In the end, PUNCHLINE just seems to be another useless series from DC and a pale teenage boring version of Harley.

I'm a big fan of SWEET TOOTH and you can tell how excited i am right now reading this new series. It gave the feeling of a re-hashed story at first but as you dive deeper into the story you instantly realised that it's not the case. I'm totally invested into this one and on a side note: it does feel nostalgic and heartwarming to have SWEET TOOTH back though the original series had a great ending.

We have seen before about fantasy becoming reality but for the first time we are going to witness what if our beloved comic-book world becomes reality. A unique concept from Donny Cates.

Not the greatest of finale but better than some of the previous issues. Still it was a boring and rather lame story arc which does end on a mysterious note. Hopefully other arc would be better than what was served. (on a side note: i really thought Bao was going to become a Robin though there seems to be a possibility)

Definitely not the best issue of the series based on probably the least interesting character of the series and does not really contribute to the narrative except that the barrier between dimensions has been broken as can seen when Clara jumps. Apart from that it was not really great but still enjoyable especially for its art. I'm pretty sure it will pick up on the next issue
