I have never been more disappointed in a comic in my life. I’m just now reading it in 2021, so I can’t imagine what fans felt when it actually came out. They spend like 30 issues setting up this wedding… just for (SPOILER!) there to be no wedding! They teased it to be a huge event throughout the DC Universe and instead it was just some lame repeat of the same ole cliche of “I love you too much to put you in harms way” type of bs. Worst Batman comic I’ve ever read.

An excellently written comic with a shocking ending that perfectly characterized Nightwing & Batman’s relationship. Unfortunately this ending is going to lead to some pretty disappointing Nightwing stories, but that shouldn’t take away from this issue of “Batman”

The only reason to buy this if you just want to have a complete collection. The story is like a looney tunes episode, which is good, if it was meant to be a looney tunes episode. It takes the plot of “Knigntmares” literally no where and seems to be treading water until Tom king is able to come up with an actual story

This gets a bad review thanks to the inconsistencies in scenes presented in multiple different issues, as well as for wasting my time as well as the time of those who read any of the series that were drug into this event instead of being able to produce some actual good stories. If not for Jimenez carrying this comic with his art this would be a 3 at best

It’s good, but it’s not great. This should’ve been a bit more of an introduction to The Signal, since for the most part people still aren’t very familiar with the backstory of Duke Thomas. It was a mostly interesting story, but not something to remember

Challenge of the Super Sons (2020) #12

Sep 16, 2021

The story was alright. I know it’s supposed to be cute, but I still feel like the SuperSons stories just can’t decide what it wants to be. The art looks “cute” and like it’s meant for children, and they even say things like “heck” but then you also have a “damn it” thrown in. It’s like a children’s story trying to be made for teens. SuperSons has done some great things, but I’m just not sure how I feel about this one.

Don’t get me wrong, this comic was pretty good. The only issue is, why does this have any relation to Fear State? Not only does the events of this issue with Nakano go completely against what has happened in Fear State, but now we found out that this has been going on prior to an issue that was released 2 months ago. Art was amazing though, Mora is killing it in that department

Skybound X #1

Jul 7, 2021

Obviously, the title everyone is here for is “Rick Grimes 2000”. It managed to live up to the hype and set up a very exciting, non-canon, version of TWD for us to explore. Ultramega and Manifest Destiny both also proved to be entertaining as well as having great art. Clementine was probably the next most anticipated title of Skybound X and it managed to live up to the hype as well. It does a great job of setting the stage for whatever the future holds for Clementine

Skybound X #4

Jul 31, 2021

Honestly overall all these Skybound x issues are solid, fun reads, but due to how short the stories are I feel like none of them are given a chance to really do anything great. Rick Grimes 2000 is suffering from this badly. It’s still fun, but it’s missing a lot of details that would’ve improved the story had it been a normal sized story instead of the small 12 pages it is given each week

Skybound X #5

Review for ‘Rick Grimes 2000’: A fantastic ending that pays homage to its source material’s ending as well in certain aspects. Overall the series would’ve been amazing had it been full issues and not just 12 pages, but for the limited space given, Kirkman did a great job with what he was given. The other 3 stories were also pretty great as well.

The only reason I give this a 9.5 instead of a 10 is because of Robin looking roughly the same age and height along with similar maturity level as Jon when Jon is 17 and Damian (who’s a bit of a hothead no matter his age) is 14
