Christopher Franey Comic Reviews

This is a fantastic journey across 80 years of Green Lantern. Fans will be treated to amazing moments with their favorite Lantern, and there is plenty to learn from all the Earth-based GLs in these stories. Make sure your Lantern is charged up as you read across these 100 pages packed with creators galore.

Ground Zero lives up to its name and is a perfect setup to answer questions and establish characters for this event. All the creatives have crafted thrilling issues that show how these newer DC characters are in for some intense drama when going up against Waller. Plus, the trinity of evil coming together is an excellent setup for why they'll have the heroes of the DC Universe running scared.

Strong epilogue with some strangeness from Kraven at the end, but I'm glad to see the story stick the landing, possible threats with the Savage Six and Chameleon, and Pete and MJ for a moment.

Amazing Spider-Man Annual 2023 hits all the right notes as the leading players intersect. Hallows' Eve is getting the perfect voice to tell Spider-Man she is tired of him dragging her down and preventing her happiness. The Fall of X hits Spidey's world harshly, and MJ is dealing with her run of bad events. Spider-Man's world just can't escape that Parker Luck.

A fun adventure that shows the struggling adventures of Scott Lang. If you're a fan of Ant-Man from the movies then this is the book for you, and if you're looking for a down-on-his-luck hero, give it a shot.

Fun issue with some much deserved down time for the Avengers. Deep looks into the thoughts of the team members, lots of bonding, and some foreshadowing before we get into the next arc, "Challenge of the Ghost Riders."

A slow burn for the anticipation of the main race, but a good and necessary start to the arc.

Part two of the Riders arc does a good job to continue driving the story by introducing a fierce challenge for the Avengers. We are starting to see the Ghost Riders interact with each other and a dive into their history.

I can't wait for next issue's conclusion and to see how this all shakes out and leads to the new Ghost Rider series. This issue really did a great job of moving the story along and also peeling back the curtain to get us wondering who the villain will be.

The ending mostly sticks the landing, but some characters felt off and sometimes unnecessary to the overall story. Great moments and growth for Robbie Reyes as a Ghost Rider and an Avenger.

A great issue and exciting start to "Joker War". This sets the stakes and drama high and puts Batman in a situation that will be tough to get out of. Plus, it has us readers questioning how much The Joker really knows. Fantastic art makes this issue even more dynamic.

This issue keeps the hype train running at full speed. I feel like I'm reading a part of the story much later in the arc.

This is a great issue overall, but it did feel like a lull compared to the others. This must be that part of the story where you catch your breath and set up for the big bang. I am stunned by that cliffhanger last page and can't wait for the next issue.

Batman #98 features some great moments, but lacks that adrenaline punch that the first two parts had. Hopefully, this mid-arc lull will lead to an epic conclusion to "Joker War". Alfred saves the day at a bittersweet cost to us, and Harley vs. Punchline was surprisingly enjoyable.

This is a slow burn of an issue as we get a speech from the Joker as the Bat family regroups so they can divide and conquer. The best stuff comes at the end, which really makes the wait for the conclusion next issue that much more difficult.

This was a great story arc as a whole that really pressed Batman and his family against the wall with some impossible odds, but in the end it healed the family. The conclusion was reasonable, but I am excited for future issues and what will happen next for Gotham, Joker, Punchline, and Clownhunter.

A great issue that helps to celebrate the legacy of Alfred Pennyworth, but there are some moments that just take the spotlight away from Alfred and into the dramatic. I enjoyed getting to see the Robins and Batgirl reflect, but it would've been nice to see how this hit Bruce.

The original summer blockbuster of comics is back with a fantastic lineup, an all-time great creative team and iconic heroes. On top of that, we get some bonus appearances from other heroes in the DCU. Here is a comic that lives up to its name!

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #2 is an excellent follow-up issue that builds the story with moments that play on the reader's emotions. More heroes of the DCU make their way into this book which is fantastic as it is titled World's Finest, but we get plenty of extra heroes. The time travel part was a little unbelievable, but I won't get too hung up on it for the stake of the story. The issue serves as a good setup that drives you to continue this adventure. I am enjoying the spark of hope that Mark, Dan, and Tamra are bringing to the DCU.

A significant issue that keeps the momentum going on this fresh, exciting take on the World's Finest and other characters in the DCU while introducing new ones. Mark Waid and Dan Mora continue the summer blockbuster by adding more drama, action, and catastrophe for Superman and Batman to face, proving why they are indeed the World's Finest!

High-energy antics continue to live up to the name of World's Finest! Mark Waid and Dan Mora are giving us a summer blockbuster with so many guest appearances, a grave evil, and awesome eye candy. World's Finest is a comic series that needs to be on your pull list.

The World's Finest vs. the Devil Nezha concludes, but this series does a fantastic job of getting you to want to stick around for the next arc and wanting to see what future fallout will be. Waid, Mora, and the rest of the creative crew have made an optimistic version of the DCU that is so encouraging!

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #6 is a great showcase of the Boy Wonder that reminds us of how fantastic he is at the trapeze and as a detective. This character-focused issue by Mark Waid and Travis Moore is an excellent complement to the main Nightwing series.

The blockbuster team is back, crafting quite a tale with a superpowered teen crashing into the lives of the World's Finest. Mark Waid conveys to us that each hero has such humanity, and that is what makes them heroic. Dan Mora captures the iconic feel that each hero brings to the story, and together they remind us that DC Comics can be fun and exciting.

Mark Waid, Dan Mora, and Tamra Bonvillain come together to craft an excellent version of the DC Universe that should please any fan. Mark Waid tests Boy Thunder's grit, Dan Mora continues to add to his draw list of DC characters, and Tamra Bonvillain illuminates the world perfect with her palette.

The saga of Boy Thunder continues as we look deeply into his origin and more interactions with heroes that will either build him up or shut him down. The issue adds to the emotional roller coaster you'll be on right before the significant drop, which is the Joker.

What an issue! Mark Waid and Dan Mora are setting up some heavy developments here, as it seems the Joker is shaping Boy Thunder's future. Get ready for a jaw-dropping last page, as you will see just what can happen in the DCU. Just imagine!

This arc ends with such a bang, hyping us up for what's coming next for DC Comics. Mark Waid, Dan Mora, and Tamra Bonvillain are delivering another blockbuster after the Magog reveal. Don't miss this issue, as it propels DC into a fantastic 2023!

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #12 is a hilarious interlude that reminds us dating is hard for everyone, including heroes! Mark Waid and Tamra Bonvillain team with Emanuela Lupacchino to craft a mismatch made in hell as we finally discover the reason behind the cold shoulders of Robin and Supergirl.

World's Finest #38 isn't the most explosive opener, but it's a character-driven, nostalgia-soaked, fun start with heart. Mark Waid's gift for authentic hero banter shines while Clayton Henry's lively art keeps things visually sharp. The "We Are Yesterday arc plants a few intriguing seeds, and while the setup feels familiar, there's enough charm and potential here to stick around and see where this retro-fueled ride heads next in DC's All In future.

This is an exciting and entertaining opening issue. While it might be treading old ground, the creative team has found a way to make it exciting by updating with style and content while keeping the original stories' timelessness. Mark Waid gives us interesting headspace with Batman's thoughts, while Samnee and Lopes stimulate adventure with their heavenly style. Some great touchstones happen again, but there is enough new material to keep you returning for more.

This is a better trip down memory lane! Updating the formative years of the Dynamic Duo is an excellent time within this series. It is such entertainment to see how these two are so different and how they come together. Waid and Samnee give great conflict to our heroes and also find great moments to showcase their growth and respect for each other, which also grows the danger they will eventually face; a fun, worthwhile installment in what is shaping up to be another classic Year One in DC's history.

Before they were the Dynamic Duo, they had to learn to live together. Waid and Samnee create an issue that shows the problems behind the mask and how they come forward to make a huge snag in the partnership. Batman's ignorance of understanding children could be an issue in the shaping of Dick Grayson into quite a terror. Robin's inability to check himself causes the team to lose their stealth and develops into a problem that Bruce will have to learn how to deal with or change. "Growing Pains hitting the Batcave is an entertaining issue worth exploring deeper.

Waid, Samnee, and Lopes continue the action and do not let up on the Dynamic Duo. Between a close encounter with a watery death and entering a new school, there is so much to engross and entertain you with. Wonderful moments of seeing Batman act like an adult and Alfred pleading for Robin's trust, along with learning more about who this new terror is that endangers Gotham City. Patience is tested, and growth continues as the emergence of the Dynamic Duo entertains readers.

Overall, Batman and Robin: Year One #5 is an entertaining issue in the Year One saga that shows Robin has a long way to go regarding allies like Alfred and Gordon. While the Boy Wonder shrugs off the problems he causes, he learns that the problems won't let him go. Dick is causing issues in his life as a ward, student, and hero that are going to play beneficial to the General's actions toward Gotham. Bruce has a long way to go before he can play the part of mentor and father while he is still trying to be the Dark Knight. Waid and Samnee deliver a great story as they forge a Dynamic Duo.

Waid and Samnee are taking us back to the early days of the dynamic duo, and their unique touch enriches this era. The series wonderfully explores the growing relationship between Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson, capturing the growing pains they face as they learn to work together not just as crime-fighters, but as a family. Waid's heartfelt script comes alive through Samnee's stunning artwork, showcasing the passion and determination that drive them to seek justice. It's a touching chapter in the journey of these two heroes. Now that they've built a solid foundation together, what secret does James Gordon hold that could threaten their progress? Get ready for a bit of a wait during this intermission.

Batman & Robin: Year One #9 blends heart, heritage, and high-stakes tension into one of the best issues of the run so far. Waid and Samnee are crafting something special here, an all-ages story that doesn't shy away from emotional depth or real consequences. If you're not reading this series yet, now's the time to jump in and start your own Dynamic Duo tradition with someone you care about. It's the kind of story that earns a reread and a place on the shelf for sharing.

Batman and Robin: Year One #10 is a fast-paced, action-driven chapter that thrives on cause-and-effect storytelling. Waid and Samnee lean into both the spectacle of escapes and car chases while continuing to build the Bat-family dynamic, creating a tale that's equal parts thrilling and heartfelt. With Clayface and Two-Face manipulating the field, the stakes feel both larger than Gotham and deeply personal, especially when the fight comes crashing into Wayne Manor itself. This issue proves that the Dynamic Duo's bond is as much their strength as it is their greatest vulnerability.

Batman and Robin: Year One #12 is a masterful finale that cements Batman and Robin: Year One as one of the best modern takes on the classic Dynamic Duo. Mark Waid's writing balances heart and history, while Chris Samnee and Mat Lopes deliver gorgeous, emotionally-charged visuals. The story closes on growth, partnership, and legacy which is everything a Year One should be.

The hype behind Three Jokers is real. I know a lot of us have been waiting a long time for this miniseries to be released, but the wait was worth it. Excellent artwork presents a mystery that will leave you with lots of questions in the perfect opener for a story that may change what we know about the Joker.

Batman: Three Jokers #2 keeps the mystery alive and brings in the drama after that explosive issue #1. Granted, we are down to two Jokers, but the hits don't stop. If you thought "A Death in the Family" was rough on Jason, just wait until you read this issue.

Three Jokers was a great story overall, but like with any joke, it always comes down to timing. Sadly, the release of Three Jokers after Joker War just doesn't provide that wild revelation that I haven't seen recently between Bruce and Joker.

The current Blue Beetle creative team found a perfect way to honor Giffen by taking Jaime on a whirlwind tour of the DC Universe, past to future. Giving chances for other creators to come in and celebrate the late writer by visiting some touchstones one more time, but instead of giving into grief, this was a fun issue that reminds you of the joy of comics and character's impact. It's a perfect comic for fans to return to and a wonderful treat for the next generation to discover DC's history and Giffen's fingerprint on it.

If you want an escape from traditional superhero comics, check out this futuristic classic full of adventure and intrigue. Count is a whopping graphic novel that will remind you of the class tale of revenge, while showing you new twists and higher stakes.

Overall, this is a fantastic annual that really delivered on story and feels like a great opener for what could've been another season of Daredevil. The situations from the first 20 issues are here, but this will really add an incredible new spin that has me waiting for more. History be damned, as it all starts here!

This issue continues the story and lets the reader know what could be coming into play later in the arc. It features a great moment with Matt Murdock facing Daredevil's faults and what they do to other people.

A tense moment for the Man without Fear at the dinner table of one of Hell's Kitchen's notorious mafia families. Wilson Fisk makes a play for the bigger crime. The story progresses the overall arc.

This conclusion stuck the landing and has made the entire run of 10 issues worth it. Daredevil may be the title, but the actions and adventures of Matt Murdock is what brings the fans back for more. High stakes and moral questions keep you guess what will happen next.

Daredevil the series is in great hands with Chip, but Matt Murdock the character has never been tested more.

Amazing issue! Chip and Marco really tighten the screws to Murdock and Fisk as they try to be different than what their nature shows. This issue tests the mettle of these two men; definitely a read this new comic book day!

Another fantastic issue of Daredevil...without Daredevil in it. The struggles and characterizations that Chip Zdarsky creates are just horrible, but so fun to read. Marco Checchetto's art is just an amazing feast for the eyes...get this book on your pull list ASAP!

Tensions continue to build as more of the major players cross paths and form alliances. If you're wanting some gritty, noir drama, this is it. Another dynamic issue of Daredevil.

All in all a fantastic issue. I love the polar opposites of growth that are shown in Matt and Fisk. Matt makes an ascension on his personal grown while Fisk just hits rock bottom...hard. The drama continues to unfold as we make our way through Hell.

Great way to start off the new decade with beautiful art and amazing drama in the world of Daredevil. I just love the moment of Matt facing what he can do with his powers but also what it means due to his faith.

This issue/series has just been fantastic. We are in an era of Daredevil that is in league with the greatest of the character's history.

Amazing issue! The suspense is intense and the characters are really starting to interact with each other. A major win and a major loss this issue that will set things up for the next couple of issues.

This is a fantastic issue, a story of the people rising up as heroes and standing against evil. Matt Murdock begins his journey back to Daredevil and the pieces that have been introduced since issue #1 are coming together. This has been a crazy ride and this issue will make the wait for April's issue that much harder. If you have ever wanted to get a friend into Daredevil, this would be the issue to show them.

Daredevil is back and this issue hits hard. What a return to the Man Without Fear, in an issue where you see people stand together full of action. Matt's journey of the soul is on a great path to redemption.

Seriously, this issue, like much of the series, gets top marks in regards to story, art, and character. This is the perfect jumping on point because what is going to come next may blow your mind. Other comics have the "aftermath" issue and this was one of them, but the drama doesn't stop. Great forward movement of plot points and strong growth for Matt Murdock.

Another fantastic issue. There isn't much in terms of superhero battles, but the interactions are reminding you of all the spinning plates with Matt, Fisk, and even Typhoid Mary.

The drama continues in Daredevil #23, but now the major storyline intersects with events from the Annual and this is going to make for one hell of a ride! The character conversations are amazing and Matt Murdock really gets called out, but that's what true friends do. Beautiful art from this team and a bonus with Spidey making an appearance too!

This is a great issue that has Daredevil getting his affairs in order before the big trial. I love the characters' tones and relationships in this issue, as they are played perfectly -- Zdarsky has a firm grasp on the DD-verse.

Daredevil #25 is a fantastic character-driven issue that doesn't focus on the main character. Beautiful art and compelling story come together to give us a new character and direction that will impact the current story"now the question is, is that character genuine?

This is a great tie-in issue to King in Black. Yes, it does change lanes with what we have been reading and wanting, but Zdarsky makes this a side trip you'll want to go on. Get ready for some wild showdowns, plot advancement, and a broken man meeting a dark god. Hell's Kitchen is really cooking!

I've said it before: this is a historic run of Daredevil, so do yourself a favor and stay on this book!

This is a spectacular character issue with an interesting development at the end. Zardasky has a lot of plates spinning but he is the master at keeping them all in the air.

Daredevil #29 is a great issue that drives existing characters forward while fleshing out new ones. Plus, a villain is returning, so that is going to spell disaster when they are up and running. Matt has to hold his own and find out who wants him dead"if he isn't already! Wild mix of drama, mystery, and action as only this DD team can do it!

While Daredevil #30 is dialogue-heavy, it builds the "Doing Time" arc as the characters are set for intersections that will make for great action later. Artists Marco Checchetto and Mike Hawthorne shine with their art and the characters they showcase. However, that last page is going to make things messy later in this arc!

Fantastic issue! Chip is letting all the pots on the stove boil and it is going to be an entertaining disaster in the kitchen. Lots of setup here, but Chip has proven before that he can deliver.

Daredevil #32 is a great issue that advances the main players' adventures while amping the drama and action up. That last page twist will both excite and scare you with it's potential. If these last two parts have been an indicator, then this arc is going to explode!

Daredevil #33 is another great issue. The reveal to Bullseye, finding this new skeleton in Fisk's closet, and seeing the path Elektra is on to keep me entertained for the month. I look forward to seeing the wrap-up to these new developments, and this issue helps to carry the arc forward.

Daredevil #34 is a great issue that serves as a breather before putting the main players on course for all the wild affairs that will be coming our way with the end of the volume and Devil's Reign. Red skies are coming to Hell's Kitchen!

The penultimate issue of Chip Zdarsky's excellent Daredevil is a great issue that took me back to the issues right before Marvel's Civil War event. The groundwork is laid, and I can see how this builds to Mayor Fisk's big move for the upcoming Devil's Reign event. I loved how Elektra was spotlighted as a hero, which shows her growth. And as always, the art department on this book delivers astonishing sights!!

Daredevil's finale issue is a perfect ending for this current volume of Daredevil. There was intense drama, romance, rejection, and character growth. Zdarsky and the team have taken these characters and lifted them to whole new levels. The issue has me impatiently waiting for the Devil's Reign event to continue this roller coaster of emotions and entertainment!

Daredevil #1 hits heavy as you're seeing Matt Murdock go through some familiar pain. Chip and Marco are continuing their trailblazing run on Daredevil, but steel yourself as I think this will live up to the phrase, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions." Buckle up and keep your head on a swivel, as it will be a hell of a ride.

Anniversary sized issue that has Daredevil face his thoughts on belief and free will. You'll see new layers to Matt's life and gain a unique insight into why they happened. This new villain is quite the adversary who hits Matt right in the religion. All this is wrapped up in beautiful art by current and past creators.

This issue is full of great character interactions that set up for a potential crossover with the Hand. Luke Cage was one of the stars of this issue and proves that when you pick up the Daredevil series, you get more than just the Man Without Fear. Matt is looking to set up an army, and he has quite the cast to help him do that.

Don't miss out on this issue that sets the stage for the new era of Daredevil. I am so surprised by the events here, and that they didn't use this in the milestone #1 or #650 issues. Zdarsky has taken us through hell what's next? It starts here!

Chip Zdarsky and Marco Checchetto explore Daredevil's inner thoughts and struggles as he creates a Fist to save the world. Faith and plans are helping Daredevil, but is it enough? What else awaits on this path to Heaven through Hell?

This issue helps to progress the upcoming war between the Fist and the Hand. A wild reveal will have you wondering how much power the Hand holds, Daredevil is dealing with a heavy crown as a leader, and Elektra will be on the run. Are they strong enough for war? Zdarsky and de LaTorre bring intense drama with the Red Fist Saga.

Daredevil #7 is another great issue that advances the showdown between the Fist and the Hand. The reformed villains get a moment to think beyond themselves, making this a significant character issue. What is ideal is at the end of it all, you know there is a deadly threat waiting for these characters. The fire is starting up, so get ready for war.

Zdarsky and Checchetto bring the battle to epic proportions as the Punisher goes up against the Daredevils. Two characters, firmly entrenched in their beliefs, come to blows for an action-packed issue that highlights the characters inside while building up the suspense for the overall war.

Artist Manuel Garcia joins Chip Zdarsky as they slam the Fist into the wall. How will Matt Murdock handle his faith being tested? Lots of action, drama, and character in this turning point issue for the battle against the Hand. Another battle (or two) looms for Matt and the Fist.

Faith versus Fear! Chip Zdarsky, Marco Checchetto, & Matthew Wilson take Matt Murdock to quite the test as they put him against Spider-Man. Faith will challenge Responsibility, and this will make Matt have to forge his destiny by going against everyone to survive. An entertaining turning point in Daredevil's history!

Daredevil is back in Hell's Kitchen, and change is cooking up for Matt and what is left of his supporting cast. Zdarsky, de Latorre, and Wilson will revisit the guilt that has made Matt a Man Without Fear, but what comes next with nothing to lose? This kitchen is seasoned with a vengeance!

"Dancing with Fire" is a great summary of Matt and Elektra's relationship. Zdarsky, Chechetto, and Wilson take their connection further as this creative team approaches the end. Do not miss this issue, as it sets up a huge showdown that'll have Daredevil fans talking.

Before Zdarsky, Checchetto, and Wilson leave Daredevil, they will take us on a fist-fighting, eye-catching journey through Hell. We get answers about the Book of the Fist, and Matt Murdock finds a force worth fighting for. Get ready to see the tide turn, as a sacrifice must be made before it ends.

A beautiful ending to a historical run on Daredevil that stands on its own but also intrigues you enough to see what the next team will have to face. Zdarsky, Checchetto, and Wilson deliver an excellent epilogue that will give you hope for the supporting cast of Daredevil.

Saladin Ahmed, German Peralta, and Jesus Aburtov create an issue that will take the "man without fear" and put him on the run as he deals with choices, devils, and Bullseye. The issue will fill you with suspense and tease as you wait for the big confrontation. Awesome insights into Murdock's mind as he deals with being a holy man who dresses as the devil but fights for the truth.

Saladin Ahmed and Aaron Kuder showcase their abilities excellently in this issue with how they showcase Daredevil's world. Ahmed plays with DD's faith and provides him with pathways that allow him to accept the good that comes with choices while also keeping the responsibility challenged by having DD clean up some consequences of his choices. Kuder cuts loose as he puts DD on a wicked journey that allows us to see two contrasting sides of DD. Introductory Rites continues with quite the second wind for story and character.

Daredevil and Wolverine paint the town red as the Sins continue to plague Matt Murdock. Ahmed will make you question who is in charge of Wolverine and get you to examine Murdock's issue with that particular vice. Kuder and Aburtov give you a fight that delivers on the brutality and won't let your eyes escape that punishment. "Introductory Rites" is a hell of a welcome back for the Man Without Fear.

What a way to turn 60 years old and not look stale; the current creative team shares the anniversary with classic and new creators. Introductory Rites adds layers to Murdock's struggles, making the wait harder as interest builds. The added characters are more good stuff in this wild buffet. The extra adventures take us to eras of Daredevil that should bring a smile to any era fan's face. Here's to more than 60 years of the Man Without Fear!

Excellent fight choreography carries the issue as Bullseye squares up to the Daredevils. Punishment awaits as fists, feet, and faces all meet. The Sins take a breather in this issue as we get a reunion that long-time fans will enjoy. The issue is enjoyable overall, but it does feel a bit like a filler issue with how long this story arc has been. It is still worth picking up, but it does keep the wait lingering as answers and confrontations await.

Prepare for a vicious throwdown between the Kingpin and Daredevil as a deadly Sin gets involved. We've witnessed how this Sin has taken hold of the Kingpin; now, get ready to witness its wrath. This creative team knows how to beat the Hell out of Daredevil!

Ahmed, Kuder, and Aburtov deliver a heavenly issue that rewards readers for the Sins of Murdock. The art lifts the characters to new levels, making for dynamic eye candy that you'll keep checking out to make sure you didn't miss anything. The script does a beautiful job of pitting the hero against himself and challenging him to accept his flaws. If you've been away from Daredevil, then this is the issue that can get you back and to be fearless again.

Daredevil #15 is an enjoyable character piece that adds some great elements and sets up future issues. It would be great to get some resolution, but at least there are moving moments as Daredevil makes a confession. It's a fascinating idea to have Matt Murdock take on the Seven Deadly Sins, who have possessed many from his world, but we're on part 15 of this long arc, making it quite the trial of endurance.

The end is almost here as Murdock goes up against Pride. Saladin Ahmed, Aaron Kuder, and Jesus Aburtov continue the epic "Introductory Rites, as readers are thoroughly treated to who the Sins have possessed and how they look. The feelings of tension and anger hit hard within as Murdock revisits his roots in court and has to deal with his consequences attacking his friends. The creative team reminds us that Murdocks can drop, but they find a way up, and Daredevil has been finding ways to stay up against his worst enemies, his own sins.

The 20-part "Introductory Rites" story arc has come to an end, and what a ride it's beenfull of highs and lows, strength and weakness. On its own, the issue is a worthwhile read, but you might feel a bit lost without the full context. Viewing it as part of the entire arc is a more rewarding experience. For fans who have been waiting for the conclusion, now is the time to enjoy the payoff. It's a story that entertained, challenged, and left me eager to see what comes next. I especially appreciate that Matt didn't get an easy way out, staying true to his character and flaws.

Daredevil #20 kicks off a haunting new arc as Matt Murdock battles guilt, temptation, and a mysterious plant-based threat infecting Hell's Kitchen. Ahmed dives deep into faith and failure, while Jos Luis Soares brings a stylish, eerie vibe to the visuals. The physical and spiritual threats come at Daredevil from the inside, making for an interesting read as Murdock challenges his faith and guilt. The past will also resurface in Nyla Skin and the armored costume, so how much will they hurt and/or help? Wounds are closing, but mysteries are forming that seem very promising.

Daredevil #21 drags Matt Murdock into another hellish ordeal. He's kidnapped, infected with a fungus, and wrestling with the emotional fallout of the last arc. Saladin Ahmed keeps the psychological tension sharp while artists Carlos Nieto and Jose Luis Soares blend horror and introspection beautifully. Plus, the return of the armored costume makes it worthwhile alone, along with other great visual feasts for the eye. It's an eerie, character-driven chapter that pits Matt's guilt and instincts against a chilling new villain. Gross, gripping, and thankfully without the stink.

Daredevil #22 delivers a payoff that's been building throughout the Rites of Reconciliation arc, with Saladin Ahmed revealing the eerie truth behind Lionsmane, both in name and identity. With tense, visceral art by Jose Luis Soares and Carlos Nieto, the issue blends psychological horror with emotional stakes, forcing Daredevil to confront a threat that scrambles both his senses and his heart. A solid resolution is offered, but with one haunting image, you'll be asking if the door is left cracked open just enough for a potential return.

Despite some misdirection on the cover and in the solicitation, Daredevil #23 is a character-rich installment. The split structure works, the players intrigue, and there's clear potential for emotional growth if the story is allowed to breathe. There's a growing sense that this arc might be accelerating toward an early conclusion, especially with rumors that the volume ends at issue #25. Still, hopefully, Ahmed has enough room to let Matt build stronger ties in this new life and earn some much-needed reconciliation, without feeling rushed to the finish line.

It's a marvelous opening issue that tickles the nostalgia to get readers to return with enough hype that newer fans will want to check out this throwback suit. D.G. Chichester and Netho Diaz give us the best of past and present with their modern-styled trip to a memorable era of Daredevil. If you've been digging old-school style with modern storytelling, like World's Finest, then be sure to check out Daredevil: Black Armor.

Chichester and Diaz give good reasons why Daredevil will need armor by pitting him against Sabretooth and Hobgoblin in an action-packed issue that shows a fighter's edge. No matter Daredevil's vital status, he is always a man of the people in Hell's Kitchen, so when they go missing, DD looks for answers, which takes him underground and into the clutches of Baron Strucker, which will leave you entertained and looking for more.

The Great Darkness and Pariah will put DC's legacy of heroes to the test. The dark army has taken down the League, and a new group of villains attack. Characters from the last 35 years of DC history will rise to prove their mettle as the foundation and players set up. Emotions will spill as the creative team entertains you as they showcase their love and history for DC Comics.

The players set the board while we get some stunning fights that show how dire this situation is. Williamson, Sampere, Sanchez & co. are bringing us the best of their craft. Dark Crisis is shaping to make significant waves in the DCU, so join in on the fun before it is too late!

This issue delivers, from the cover to that last page reveal. Daniel must be looking at his Who's Who comics to give us this massive collection of DC characters. Joshua peels back the layers perfectly to show and tease so that we will be back for more. I can't wait to see how the Crisis will step up to this gathering of heroes.

Williamson gives us a new significant moment in the history of DC Comics. This issue flowed so nicely with the creative team in such sync that you would think they have been working together for years. I know this makes waiting for the next issue much harder, but this story's potential excites me! Please don't wait on this one; pick it up as soon as possible!

Joshua Williamson and Daniel Sampere make sure the pieces come together amid a significant reveal. The heroes rally after the JSA inspired, but evil comes closer to bringing doom. This issue will leave you super excited for what is to come, and I can't wait for next month!

The big battle is there to test the next generation of heroes, and when you see how far one will go to save the day, you'll know that kid is doing a job meant for Superman. Daniel Sampere brings so much to each page you'll want to savor the experience and awe at the DCU in action.

Nightwing fans won't want to miss this as it is a huge character moment for the character. Legacy & Darkness will be challenged in the DCU, and we will see the outcome with this conclusion. Joshua Williamson & Daniel Sampere, along with an All-Star lineup of talent, will give you quite the show for the future of all worlds.

Dark Crisis: Worlds Without A Justice League #1: Superman is a fun exploration of growing pains with a Super Father raising a Super Son. We see how Clark would've reacted to Jon's years spent growing up. We see how much Clark missed by being robbed of that time with Jon.

Dawn of DC: Primer #1 is a free surprise this NCBD, and an excellent trip inside the mind of a ruthless tactician that will put the DC heroes back in check with her final solution. Joshua Williamson, Leandro Fernandez, and Daniela Miwa give Amanda Waller a mission that will challenge the Dawn of DC.

I am ALL IN! Wow, what a crazy, incredible sight to see when an unstoppable force of hope in the Justice League meets an unmovable object of destruction in Darkseid. Snyder, Williamson, Sampere, and Craig are living up to actions that are more vital than words, and I believe in this initiative as it is taking the DC Universe even further. I'm looking forward to the next chapter in this saga!

This issue adds to the body count, but hits us hard in the feelings with how we lose characters in this continuation of the overall story.

This was a strong issue that takes us to the midway of the story. The losses in this issue were harder as most of them were main characters and family members, but this hammers home the idea that no one is safe.

The action and drama continues to hit hard, and more DC characters make their DCeased debut, which might not be best for them. Lower tier characters get big moments and some revelations happen as the DCU continues to fight for survival.

This was another amazing issue from this series, and with that cliffhanger ending I can't wait to see how this miniseries wraps up.

This issue, conclusion, and mini-series was fantastic! Such a great shot in the dark that hit a target we didn't even know was there. Such emotions and great character with a conclusion that is just phenomenal. Get this issue and the rest of the mini...plus the one shot!

A fantastic one-shot that gives fan favorite heroes a moment to shine in a horribly dark version of the DC Universe. If you haven't been reading DCeased, then start here with this amazing one-shot.

This was a strong opener for a sequel to 'DCeased', and a great gateway comic for new and returning fans. Taylor does a great job creating moments and characters to get attached to, while Hairsine's art does a great job of ripping it to shreds.

The drama comes crashing in hard this issue as we are treated to some hope and seeing more characters, but by the time the issue moves along we are ridden with guilt, shame, and sadly we might be losing that hope. Tom Taylor and Trevor Hairsine are the World's Finest creative for this DC Universe.

This is a great issue with hopeful moments tricked out in heroic and horrific art. We have something to hope for, but we also know something bad is coming too. The issue goes by fast but really does some great setting up for what could be a roller coaster of emotions with the next couple of issues.

DCeased: Dead Planet #4 is another fantastic issue, jam-packed with all kinds of goodies, horrors, and potential. I love the fact that two characters have returned as this can really ramp the emotions up a notch, so the drama never ends.

DCeased: Dead Planet #5 is a great issue with consistent art and story. I really enjoyed the team dynamics that were created in this issue -- they add to the overall story, even if this particular issue wasn't quite as action-packed as some previous ones. I'm sure will read amazingly in the collected edition, though, and it provides great setup for the next two issues.

This is another great issue with another great team created by these dire situations; plus it is all coming to a head with evil coming from above, below, and on site! Constantine is really building up the magical cache to save us"but will it just doom him in the end? Hype is high and I'm dying for that next issue!

DCeased: Dead Planet turned out to be one of the best comics I've read in quite a while. The ending was so great I had to sit down and read the entire miniseries all over again because the ride was so good and so satisfying. Tom and Trevor have created a masterclass on a fantastic, entertaining, suspenseful miniseries! Get this ASAP!

DCeased: War of the Undead Gods #1 is a fantastic opening issue leads to an emotional rollercoaster you will want to ride again. The creative team brings us disaster and hope, all while setting up a significant threat in the Anti-Living New Gods. Like in the previous series, we get life and death, but the rules don't always hold, so be prepared!

DCeased is such a dark and wonderful world to experience in the greater DC Universe. It is the stuff of nightmares and potential, which Tom Taylor and Trevor Hairsine are taking full advantage of. The DCU has great evil, but this version makes that one look docile. The creative is bringing terror, so can the heroes bring hope?

DCeased: War of the Undead Gods #3 is a slower issue, but it still sneaks up on you and puts your emotions in flux. Adam Strange fans, watch out as your character shows up in the world of DCeased. It's so bittersweet to get your favorites to show up and then see their fates. Plus, there might be more at play than the creative team led us to believe.

The War of the Undead Gods slows down to look at the inner traumas that haunt the survivors. There are pieces here that will tug at your heartstrings, have you worry about the upcoming Undead army, and challenge alliances.

DCeased: War of the Undead Gods #5 is a high-octane issue as Tom Taylor, Trevor Hairsine, and the rest of the team take a ridiculous character and have him destroy worlds! If you thought undead Plastic Man was gross and scary, you haven't seen anything like this terrifying trickster. Stay safe as we approach the end!

This is an issue you won't want to miss! If you're an Alfred fan, brace yourself because his suffering isn't over yet. How can a man survive in a world with undead gods and fear lanterns? Get this issue and be astounded!

A couple of significant shifts in forces for the Undead will make for a good setup and conclusion. More Spectre/Alfred is always a great thing, and the creative team of Tom Taylor, Trevor Hairsine, Andy Lanning, and Rain Beredo welcome Lucas Meyer as they do wonders with putting the universe in danger.

Tom Taylor, Trevor Hairsine, and Lucas Meyer bring the end to the end of the DC Universe. We've seen some fantastic team-ups and combinations, but there are still more before they go. You'll see what happens when you piss off a Waynea resounding conclusion to a beautiful series.

The Deadman #1 delivers a fresh and imaginative reinvention of Boston Brand by turning him into a supernatural “custodian” of souls. W. Maxwell Prince injects the series with humor and charm while Martin Morazzo and Chris O’Halloran create eerie, stylish visuals that make the afterlife feel both bizarre and dangerous. The result is a fun, creepy, and highly promising start.

A decent issue with a blast from the past memory to celebrate the life of Alfred Pennyworth. Nice memories of yesteryear and some insights to how important Alfred was to Bruce and his mission. Plus closing out an open case from Alfred's secret agent days is a nice goodbye.

Devil's Reign: Omega #1 isn't just an omega; it is also an alpha! A fantastic wrap-up to the Devil's Reign event showcases deep character emotion and entices you to the next adventures for the characters. Even though Fisk's fall has happened, there is a lot to unpack and rebuild, making for a good story about future issues. If you're a fan of Luke Cage, you won't want to miss this issue as he steals the show!

This one-shot does a great job of taking Ben's story from Devil's Reign, giving it a solid, entertaining conclusion, and then folding him back into Amazing Spider-Man. It provides the Rose with some fun moments to shine and shows just how far a Spider-Man will go for his friends.

So far, this series is a great way to increase interest for the upcoming Disney Plus show featuring a great buddy cop duo, but the hook seems very similar to the last Winter Soldier mini. Overall a fun read to keep us entertained till the show arrives.

An entertaining issue that really reveals the motivations of all the characters involved. We learn more about what The Natural is doing, and Sam and Bucky are roped into a situation that makes the situation worthwhile for this mini-series Add in dynamic art and this will help hold us over till the Disney+ show.

An entertaining issue that really reveals the motivations of all the characters involved. We learn more about what The Natural is doing, and Sam and Bucky are roped into a situation that makes the situation worthwhile for this mini-series Add in dynamic art and this will help hold us over till the Disney+ show.

This is a good issue with funny bits, but it really didn't help to get me inspired about Falcon and Winter Soldier again after this much time away from issue #2. It's worth a read to complete the story, but it just didn't get my hype up.

This is a good issue with some humorous moments and lots of action that was cool to see, but the story kind of pauses, acting as the calm before the storm in the finale next issue.

Falcon & Winter Soldier told a great story in a fun, thrilling ride, and best of all this conclusion made it all worth it. This series put two classic Marvel heroes together in an adventure that made sense and also tested their mettle. Consistent art and writing make this a fun read to reunite with these characters or see them in their glorious comic book form.

Quick introduction that showcases how the heroes and the dreamscape will be colliding to provide us with an entertaining event from DC Comics. Joshua Williamson, Chris Bachalo, and Howard Porter give us a short opening chapter that makes you question what is real and what is a dream.

Flashpoint Beyond creates a mystery by presenting a lost world returned. Many questions will cause suspense and wonder. Absorb the art, clues, and Easter eggs as 'Beyond' can be a story link that will tighten up 'Flashpoint' and 'Doomsday Clock' by revisiting and adding depth.

Flashpoint Beyond #1 is an entertaining issue that helps drive along what is happening in the world of Flashpoint and gives purpose to Thomas Wayne's actions. Stunning art helps keep you turning the pages of mystery as to who the Clockwork Killer is and what their motivations are.

The best issue in this series yet that builds the mystery and anticipation. Issue 2 supplies you with clues that will excite your inner DC fan! Sit back with your favorite notepad, write down the clues and connections, and be ready to be entertained with an adventure that hits like a Crisis and doesn't overwhelm you.

This issue turns the dial another click forward as so much is going on and revealed. Plus, the mystery and the dealings with the DC Omniverse! The connection to Dark Crisis makes it that much more fun, but it still holds on its own. The wait between issues is tough as I want those answers now. This creative team is giving us a modern DC classic don't miss out!

The big reveal is here and very satisfying as it ties so much of the mystery and adventure together. I'm surprised the creative team chose that character, but it will make for fantastic conflict later in the series. It looks like Thomas and Bruce Wayne are in for some heavy fallout.

The writing team has created their own Secret Crisis that explains what happens in the Omniverse vs. Hypertime, making the Devine Continuum very interesting. I can't wait to discover more of it, but we still have the world of Flashpoint to survive through.

Wow! There is so much happening, but what's even wilder is the fallout! I am happy to have witnessed the journey of Thomas Wayne and the risk Bruce Wayne took, but there is so much more to explore, and I can't wait to see DC Comics' future. Terrific story by such a league of talent!

Future State: Nightwing #1 is a great adventure showing Dick's possible future. It's a fast-paced story that plants seeds for a mystery and also a team-up with the Next Batman in issue #2.

Future State: Nightwing #1 is a great adventure showing Dick's possible future. It's a fast-paced story that plants seeds for a mystery and also a team-up with the Next Batman in issue #2.

This quick series ended perfectly and showed me a fantastic dynamic duo, but I really hope this future gets another chance to be seen again as the creative team did a good job of showing a darker world saved by Dick Grayson.

A story of what makes comics fun, while creating new concepts and expanding your philosophies. The art came together better in this issue I feel and the threat was high, but wrapped up a little too quickly and nicely. I hope the new concept of a Linearverse gets explored more in future DC Comics.

Generations Shattered will be a hard sell for some, considering what it's up against, but I think it is a great treat that takes you back to the sci-fi style of comics and epic scope of fantasy that will delight longstanding fans and get newer fans to check their history out even more.

Fantastic first issue. Dynamite characterization and story points from Ed Brisson and amazing art from Aaron Kuder. These two are revving the engine for the Ghost Riders.

Overall good issue which does help to drive the overall arc of the story, but leaves the reader wanting more in that wait between issues. Ed Brisson does a good job of creating a friction between the Riders and an interesting problem with Johnny as the King.

This is a fast read, but it does move the story along and leaves you wanting more. This is a huge struggle for the Riders and being the King isn't easy. Danny Ketch fans take notice of this issue, as there are some great moments and finally the talk you all wanted. Wrap all that up in some great art and you've got a good issue.

The first arc concludes and plays a big part in the setup for the future of the book, so in a lot of ways this is more like a prelude. Johnny Blaze and Danny Ketch both are dealing with changes to their power sets. I like that there will be more Spirits and different themes.

The players are coming together and the power sets are starting to get bigger. We now have Spirits of Vengance along with Spirits of Corruption and Kings of Hell...plus all the other dark realms. Things are being set up for a big showdown as Hearts of Darkness II begins.

Fantastic issue, feels like I got two comic books for the price of one. Juan Frigeri brings some excellent art to the table and when you see his Johnny Blaze on the last page you will be wanting more. Ed Brisson does a great job of balancing time and story between the two Riders and all the guest stars...this looks like it could be building towards a Marvel Event or just some amazing story in Ghost Rider; get this book on your pull list asap.

Issue #7 is a great return to Ghost Rider comics, especially after that cliffhanger. I love the shoutout to Hearts of Darkness in the Danny Ketch era of Ghost Rider and really appreciate the extras that Ed Brisson is bringing to legend of Ghost Rider.

Ghost Rider: Return of Vengeance #1 is a good issue that brings back another rider to the mystical parts of the Marvel Universe. It's a strong read that introduces the character to new fans while staying true his roots for longtime readers, all the while reminding us that there is more to Vengeance and his ways.

Delve into the unique dynamic between Sin and the Kingpin as they storm Hell's Kitchen. We get a rare glimpse into Fisk's mind and bear witness to his relentless attacks. While this is Daredevil's Giant-Size issue, Fisk is the one calling the shots, leaving you to ponder his motives for luring DD in. This interlude to the Introductory Rites story arc hopefully ramps the excitement for the rest of the adventure.

This is a great graphic novel musical mash-up that does more than any Wikipedia page can do. So whether you're a seasoned Dead Head, a student of musical history, or just somebody looking for an entertaining read with great art, go out and get yourself a copy of this. You'll learn a lot about these guys as the story takes you on their long, strange trip.

The Green Lantern Season Two #9 is, once again, a great comic. You don't even have to have read the whole series to enjoy the fun, cover, but be prepared as it'll hook you into continuing the wild ride Sharp and Morrison are creating. This is great escapism and entertainment with a dash of the uncultivated chaos that comics can bring.

The Green Lantern Season Two #10 is a great issue that takes a love story and brings it to the wild upper limits that comics are all about. There is some maturity from Hal, even after all the things he been through

The Green Lantern Season Two #11 is a great issue that revisits the wonderful travels that Grant and Liam have put Hal on, all the while setting up the pieces to continue Ultrawar. There are doubts presented to Hal being a Green Lantern, but the last pages show us a man with no ring and his back against the wall, still willing to face it all. I can't wait to see what the next issue brings.

Maybe with a complete read of the entire run and no monthly spacing this may have felt more special, but this first read of issue #12 doesn't live up to the hype.

Green Lantern #3 showcases a hero who smiles and a villain who is more than just a power set. Adams and Xermanico bring a positive vibe to this series that reminds you Green Lantern is an Earth hero with a life, even though he is rebuilding it. It's a fantastic setup for a showdown that will be interesting to see, plus more clues to what is accurate with the ring and some characters.

A great down-to-earth adventure that has entertainment doubled by the value of best friends as they face mystery, danger, and getting older!

Jeremy Adams, Xermanico, and the rest of the GL creative team craft an issue that inspires people, which we can really use now.

Green Lantern #6 gives and takes when it comes to answers from Jeremy Adams, but before those revelations, you'll be treated to a Red vs Green light show that will make you wonder if Christmas has lost its mind! Xermanico, Scott Godlewski, and Romulo Fajardo Jr. perfectly showcase the Lanterns' Lights as Will Tempers Rage.

Green Lantern by Jeremy Adams and company continues to be an excellent series with answers and exciting new questions that want to be explored. With this new issue, we see the fall of a favorite Lantern as we remember how dedicated these heroes are. If you haven't put this series on your pull list, get on it, as this issue is a great starting point.

This issue seems to be a breather between story arcs, but Jeremy Adams doesn't let Hal Jordan stay idle as he throws some curve balls that will be a strong setup for later. Things are bad for Odym. Carol has to make some decisions and potential answers about the ring from magic and what it is connected to, plus the United Planets are on the hunt. It is an exhilarating time for Green Lantern fans as some signs point toward big things within the Emotional Spectrum! Also, the 30th anniversary of Kyle Rayner brings back Ron Marz, but what other hints could that present?

Green Lantern #9 keeps building momentum with the reveals as Jeremy Adams and Xermanico team up to deepen Green Lantern's mythology. Lots of changes are happening here. This is the start of a new era for GL, and it is not too late to jump on, charge up, and experience comics in a bold light! Pick this issue up, as this is a milestone moment in Hal Jordan's life.

When Jeremy Adams, Xermanico, Kevin Maguire, and the Green Lantern Corps are together, you know you're getting an excellent issue of entertainment. Watching Hal, Jo, and the Resistance Corps stealthily move around enemy territory forces the heroes to be more than just their rings against the corrupt United Planets as the Emotional Spectrum and Source Energy mystery looms in the background. Seeing Guy get in the ring to bring in Lobo sets up a comedic adventure that dives into the absurdity of the DCU.

Personal and planetary struggles happen as Jeremy Adams, Xermanico, Amancay Nahuelpan, and Kevin Maguire give us Lantern drama. The Resistance Corps plays their big card against the United Planets, but was the gambit worth it? Carol is torn between her heart and mind, while Guy Gardner deals with vengeful yet dense bounties as he protects Lobo. The drama and laughs rise as the Emotional Spectrum mystery deepens, making this a great installment of Green Lantern.

The action and emotions continue as we are on the fallout side of things. The United Planets have tipped their hand and will enlist corrupt help from Earth while Carol, driven by the power of love, flies to the rescue. Guy's hunt for Lobo is over and it looks like he will be returning to the main story, but things will have to pause for the Absolute Power event. I love the mysteries this creative team is cooking up, yet they play so well with the rest of the DCU that I'm glad they aren't sitting out at events.

There is so much happening as Green Lantern starts year two, and it is all entertaining. Absolute Power is here, and GL is captive, but discover how much more there is to the man besides his ring. Watch how the JSA stands against Jadestone, and don't forget the threat of Thaaros and the United Planets! The action doesn't stop there as we get two exciting displays of powers that will grab your attention and leave you wanting more. Here's to another year of Brightest Days, indeed!

This creative team is playing nicely with the rest of the DCU as they take their cast and put them in danger with Waller's Absolute Power. It is a fun adventure that will showcase the people behind the powers and remind us why we like them, which will also give Absolute Power one of its biggest moments.

Green Lantern and Flash team up, but this time, it's the two hot heads Hal Jordan and Wally West. What a great escape and rush to recharge as the heroes race away from Waller's forces. Plus, we get Carol Ferris experiencing the ups and downs of being a hero, Alan Scott mentoring the unknown, and John Stewart getting us ready for the upcoming Civil Corps event. There is so much in just one issue; it's a fantastic time to be a Green Lantern fan.

War marches on as the Civil Corps battle rages! Thanagar is gone, putting the heroes in quite the spot. Hal and John team up to show readers why they make a great team, and Carol is starting to blend her skills and powers as her path thrusts her forward. While the characters grow and showcase, the villains and threats keep coming, looking like they will be unyielding. Plus, another character makes their return to the series, and they could be a significant key to success. Jeremy Adams delivers character and drama, while Xermanico packs it with action and style.

Jeremy Adams and Xermanico are relentless in their pursuit of delivering exceptional comics, and this issue promises to delight any Lantern enthusiast. This single issue features numerous Lantern Legacies, making it a rare occurrence that might unite Lantern fans as their heroes confront formidable evil while ascending into the Emotional Spectrum. Sinestro and Kyle Rayner fans will be thrilled by the harmonious blend of an engaging story and exceptional artwork, providing an entertaining experience regardless of their preferences.

This creative team has crafted a series that has allowed them to continue onward and is now expanding to more series and specials. Civil Corps closes up some significant plotlines from the start of this series but also has enough charisma to keep you intrigued for the next adventure. Green Lantern is an All In series to make for a Brightest Day experience!

Green Lantern #19 is a great character-focused issue between major storylines. After shutting down the United Planets and building up the Green Lantern Corps, Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner realize they need to check in on Sorrow and the Emotional Spectrum. Before that, we get to peer into their lives to see who they invite and say goodbye to. It's terrific to see Hal and Carol enjoy their powers and romance while Kyle prepares to be the third wheel to his new and old friends. The entire creative team comes together to give us excellent character articulation and facial reactions to make Green Lantern a must for DC fans! Enjoy this tranquility before emotional chaos reigns.

Green Lantern #20 is an entertaining, suspenseful character issue that speaks to the history and Tales of the Green Lantern Corps. Jeremy Adams and Romulo Fajardo Jr. welcome artist Jack Herbert to the creative GLC and continue Fractured Spectrum. Here, we see the cautions of the Emotional Spectrum granting you abilities when in an uncontrolled state. Luckily, things are not so emotionally tasking as we get Kyle Rayner, Superboy, and Odyssey as they play Raiders of the Lost Ark, which gives lots of laughs and a nice even balance.

Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner battle Starbreaker and Sorrow to protect the Emotional Spectrum, with Superboy and Odyssey stepping in to help. The issue delivers thrilling action, character development (especially Odyssey and Superboy), and exciting cosmic stakes. Hal's return to Earth to rebuild Lantern Corps' Central Batteries adds a fresh twist as the DEO handles Earth's fallout. However, the new villain recruit may shift focus from the main arc. An entertaining mix of story and pace!

Green Lantern #22 is an exciting issue that journeys to the depths of space as two legacies come together: One creates a new hero to help Kyle Rayner and his team take on the Reach, while another takes you to Hell where you won't believe who is waiting. If you're a Blue Beetle fan, you won't want to miss this. Xermanico has his talents tested as Lanterns are teaming up with a wide variety of heroes, while Jeremy Adams shows us how vital the Green Lanterns are to the DC Universe.

Green Lantern #23 lights the fuse for something big, cosmically and emotionally. Between old ghosts like the Spectre and new wild cards like Aidia, Adams and Xermanico are playing the long game with Hal and the wider Lantern mythos. Kyle's strange ring reaction, Aidia's potential link to a new emotion, and Spectre's cryptic warning all suggest we're only scratching the surface of big things in the DCU. If Hell and deep space are proving grounds, then our Lanterns just passed these trials, but what's waiting deeper in the dark might burn brighter than anything we've seen.

Green Lantern #24 is an entertaining, lighthearted issue with interesting additions that keep the overall story moving forward, but can be read on its own. Adams does a fantastic job with character styles and voices while continuing to expand the cast of this series, and Xermanico consistently delivers on the art side of the story.

Green Lantern #25 opens the Starbreaker Supremacy wonderfully by blending legacy, humor, and deep cuts from the DC Universe with strong emotional stakes. Jeremy Adams continues to expand the mythos by weaving in characters from animation, forgotten corners of the universe, like Gemworld, and bold new "Emotional Lanterns" with unique perspectives. With the Lantern Corps and Starbreaker's forces hurtling toward an epic confrontation, the issue sets the stage for major developments leading into Legacy issue #600. It's a visually stunning, emotionally resonant chapter that reminds readers just how vast and personal the Green Lantern franchise can be.

The Green Lantern Corps escapes through the Source Wall only to find themselves in a battle where emotions themselves are weapons. V Ken Marion's anime-inspired art and Romulo Fajardo Jr.'s bold colors fuel a high-energy midpoint to Starbreaker Supremacy, balancing cosmic spectacle with character-driven subplots. Hal Jordan commands with confidence, Kyle Rayner returns in bright glory, and new threads for Parallax and Keli Cruz promise big payoffs ahead. While some beats race by and the Spectrum Entities feel underused, the issue pushes the war in a thrilling new direction.

Green Lantern #27 is a penultimate chapter that knows precisely where to place its focus: on John Stewart's strength, leadership, and growth. Jeremy Adams crafts sharp character beats, balanced between humor, tension, and payoff, while weaving in a cast of Lanterns who all get their moment to shine. Xermanico's art and Romulo Fajardo Jr.'s colors heighten every panel, from intimate conversations to widescreen cosmic battles, making the issue visually spectacular. While the Krona/Gauntlet subplot feels sidelined, the momentum never lets up, delivering a story that builds excitement and stakes for the finale.

The Starbreaker Supremacy may be over, but peace never lasts long for the Green Lantern Corps. As Oa rebuilds, Hal Jordan, Kyle Rayner, and the rest of the Lanterns begin uncovering new mysteries tied to the legendary Book of Oa; now forever changed by the Emotional Spectrum. With romance rekindled, secrets unveiled, and hints of something bigger on the horizon, things are exciting for Hal and Kyle as Jeremy Adams and his creative team craft a transition issue that deepens bonds while setting the stage for the road to issue #600.

Green Lantern and Green Arrow tackle a Star City mission with unexpected Darkseid connections, showcasing sharp banter, strong continuity, and a smooth artistic transition with Carmine Di Giandomenico joining the team. A sharp, charming team-up issue that adds fuel to the road toward #600.

Green Lantern #30 may not be the most explosive chapter on the road to issue #600, but it is one of the more thought-provoking. Jeremy Adams leans into character over spectacle, using Gotham City and Batman as mirrors for Hal Jordan's growing uncertainty after the Book of Oa's revelations. While the distance between Hal and Bruce may feel jarring to longtime readers, it creates an intriguing tension that reframes their relationship as one built on respect rather than friendship. Carmine Di Giandomenico's moody Gotham visuals help ground the mystery, and the MacGuffin adds just enough intrigue to keep Hal's journey feeling purposeful. This issue isn't about answers; it's about recalibration, and by the end, it leaves you curious not just about what Hal will become, but who he trusts along the way.

Overall, this isn't a bad issue, but it is easily the weakest team-up we've seen so far. That's frustrating given this should have been the strongest, especially if wedding bells are truly on the horizon, as Barry would logically be Hal's best man. Unfortunately, in this situation, he's not the best man at all. Maybe the upcoming Green Lantern/Flash team-up in issue #34 will be more fun.

Overall, this creative team delivers a will-they-won’t-they chapter that adds to their longstanding relationship while building even more excitement for the anniversary issue ahead. Jeremy Adams deserves major credit for steering the Jordan/Ferris relationship to its healthiest place in years, arguably ever. One final tease: Kyle Rayner fans, you’re going to be very happy. There’s a moment here that absolutely lands. The road to #600 feels brighter than ever.

Green Lantern #600 celebrates the franchise's legacy with a multi-part issue that highlights its past, present, and future. With Hal Jordan on a Mystery in Space, it's Kyle Rayner stepping into the spotlight as Earth’s primary Green Lantern. The issue blends action, heartfelt character moments, and nostalgic callbacks. From a strong jumping-on story in Los Angeles to meaningful origin retellings and a touching tribute from Kyle’s creators, this milestone issue honors what makes Green Lantern special while setting the stage for its next era.

Green Lantern #35 takes Kyle Rayner and Odyssey into the heart of Hollywood for a creepy, stylish adventure filled with cosmic horror and celebrity satire. Jeremy Adams continues to give Kyle a fresh direction while developing Odyssey into a more layered character. Though some subplot teases feel slight, the strong atmosphere and unsettling visuals make this an engaging setup chapter.

Green Lantern #36 succeeds by focusing on what matters most: Kyle Rayner's relationships. While the conclusion to the Dr. Skin storyline delivers plenty of action and creepy visuals, the heart of the issue lies in Kyle's reunion with Jade and the possibilities it creates moving forward. Jeremy Adams continues to show a deep appreciation for Green Lantern history while finding new ways to evolve its characters. It may function as a bridge between larger story arcs, but it's an enjoyable, and emotionally satisfying bridge, that leaves readers excited for the road ahead.

Green Lantern #37 leans into character development over spectacle, giving Kyle Rayner another enjoyable chapter as he adjusts to life in Los Angeles. Jeremy Adams continues to build Kyle's supporting cast and relationships while planting intriguing seeds for larger stories ahead. Although the main villain doesn't leave much of an impact, the issue's charm and final-page surprise help keep the momentum rolling.

The problems facing John Stewart and the GLC unite to bring about a huge challenge for the heroes. Will they have enough Light to stop Evil's Might? Prepare for the problems with the United Planets to finally get their moment as the Lanterns prepare the pieces for war against the Universe. If you go in with a better background on both series, this Special might seem tighter and hype you up; otherwise, you could be a little lost.

Seeing John Stewart as an enlightened hero is terrific and the perfect centerpiece of this new Green Lantern Corps series. The Green Lantern Mythos is taking off again, and keeping that momentum going forward is the best idea for another book. Having the main series creative team join up with Morgan Hampton is excellent as it is a Creative Corps working on this book. You can tell they have incredible chemistry together as their characters shine. It is the perfect time to join the Corps and get this series on your pull list, no matter how long you've been a Lantern fan or who your main Lantern is.

It's great to have an expanded stage for all the happenings in the world of Green Lantern. John Stewart gets to shine as Hawkwoman advances, yet the Red Lanterns will get in the way as they explore other potential power sources. It will be very interesting to see how items from Thanagar interact with the Emotional Spectrum. Razer makes an appearance, which is great for his fans, but another character's appearance shows that correct timing might not be in the shared story between this and the main Green Lanternseries.

Green Lantern Corps #3 delivers a fast-paced, emotionally charged chapter in the Fractured Spectrum arc. With intense character work, especially for Atrocitus, John Stewart, and Hawkwoman, mixed with Fernando Pasarin's bold visuals, the issue balances cosmic action with personal stakes. Adams and Hampton continue to bring heart and history into the mix, reminding us that rage and righteousness aren't always easy to tell apart.

This light, entertaining issue strengthens the broader Green Lantern narrative while standing solidly on its own. It's character-focused, emotionally resonant, and opens the door to intriguing developments, without getting bogged down in heavy continuity. Whether you're here for cosmic road trips, deep cuts from Lantern lore, or good old-fashioned superhero bonding, this one's worth your ring charge.

With the Mind Maze explored and the Lanterns finally united, Green Lantern Corps #5 delivers by deepening character relationships while escalating the mystery. Whether it's the traumas of Keli and Simon confronting buried pain, or the comedic spark of Guy, Narf, and Space Cabbie chasing down Evil Star Credits, there's a meaningful rhythm here; one that blends horror, humor, and adventure into a story that feels worthy of the Corps' name. This creative team continues to make space for every Lantern without sacrificing personality or purpose, and by the final page, there's a real sense of momentum. Something is waiting in space, and if this issue is any clue, it's going to test what's behind each Lantern's door, literally and emotionally.

Green Lantern Corps #6 strikes a strong balance between introspection and cosmic intrigue. The writing team dives into personal dynamics, such as Jessica Cruz's quiet reemergence of anxiety while building a powerful rapport with Jo Mullein. The issue advances the plot lines involving Sinestro, Vexar'u, and a returning fan-favorite location: Mogo. With callbacks to earlier issues and rich emotional beats, the issue continues to validate why this second Lantern title is essential. It highlights the diverse strengths and voices across the Corps without undercutting any one character. A character-driven sci-fi issue that still keeps the larger Fractured Spectrum saga moving forward to its next chronicle.

Green Lantern Corps #7 has the Starbreaker Supremacy deliver a delightfully ironic twist. The Corps can't stop the destruction because they simply don't care. With emotions stripped away, John Stewart, Kyle Rayner, Guy Gardner, and others drift into unsettling apathy, leaving unlikely allies, like the AIs, to pick up the slack. Jeremy Adams, Morgan Hampton, Fernando Pasarin, Oclair Albert, and Arif Prianto balance humor, high stakes, and continuity callbacks, creating a chapter that's both chilling in concept and fun in execution.

As Starbreaker Supremacy nears its climax, the Corps battles across the cosmos while Nathan Broome, aka Sorrow, confronts his place in the conflict with his emotions stripped away. Hampton, Adams, Pasarin, and Albert strike a balance between large-scale action and introspection, lending Sorrow weight in the narrative and hinting at bigger payoffs ahead. With the return of the Entities and a surprise villain's entrance, this chapter raises the stakes while keeping the character at the center.

The Starbreaker Supremacy saga reaches its finale as the Green Lantern Corps unites every color of the Emotional Spectrum for one final stand. Morgan Hampton and Jeremy Adams deliver a conclusion filled with heart, heartbreak, and heroism, punctuated by breathtaking visuals from Fernando Pasarin and his talented art team. It's a finale that hits the right emotional chords, even if its resolution feels a little too tidy for such a galaxy-shaking event. Looking past the story arc, the series has been an excellent expansion of the Lantern Mythos and its characters.

Green Lantern Corps #10 marks a confident and energetic new chapter as Morgan Hampton takes the solo writing lead. With John Stewart's long-awaited return, new Lanterns training up, and emotional fallout still rippling from Starbreaker Supremacy, this issue balances character drama, mythology expansion, and Corps camaraderie with impressive clarity. Supported by a seamless multi-artist team, Hampton maintains the book's momentum while sowing compelling narrative seeds for what comes next.

Green Lantern Corps #11 reminds us why John Stewart is one of the emotional pillars of the Lantern mythos. This issue isn't about winning fights; instead, it's about reckoning with loss, legacy, and the weight of connection. Whether it's Enquar's tragic path, Effigy realizing just how badly he's crossed the line, or John and Ellie navigating a bond that exists without shared memory, the story leans into the humans behind the power rings. Morgan Hampton understands that the Corps thrives not just on willpower, but on relationships, and this issue strengthens those bonds while planting seeds for conflicts that feel personal, dangerous, and worth following.

Green Lantern Corps #13 delivers a powerful, character-driven conclusion to Morgan Hampton’s opening solo arc, using Fatality’s crossroads to explore the true meaning of compassion within the Lantern mythos. By centering the Indigo Tribe and reframing revenge as a moral challenge rather than an inevitability, the issue highlights how emotional growth can be just as heroic as raw power. Strong visual storytelling and thoughtful character placement make this a standout, Corps-focused chapter that respects the legacy while pushing the characters forward.

Green Lantern Corps #14 pushes the series into intriguing new territory as Morgan Hampton begins weaving together two major threads: Guy Gardner’s bizarre new role as the Allsight and the Corps’ growing mission to reunite the Emotional Entities. With Baby Proselyte pointing the team toward Sector 3601 and trouble brewing with classic Corps villains, the issue balances humor, mystery, and character development. Fernando Pasarin’s expressive art keeps the pages lively, while Hampton lays groundwork for potentially major developments for both Guy Gardner and John Stewart. It’s a busy but engaging chapter that builds momentum for the Corps’ next big adventure.

This issue shifts focus away from Parallax’s possession of John Stewart and instead delivers a more personal, emotionally grounded story about what John has been neglecting in his life. Morgan Hampton balances that introspection with Guy Gardner’s evolving quest to reunite the Emotional Entities. At the same time, the Manhunters rise as a major threat. Strong character work and consistent artwork make this a compelling and well-rounded chapter in the series.

Green Lantern Corps #16 raises the stakes by turning the Manhunters into a more adaptive and credible threat, thanks to their hijacking of Aya. Morgan Hampton keeps the ensemble cast lively while building tension around the evolving conflict within the Emotional Spectrum. With strong art and a sense of mounting danger, this issue works well as a setup chapter that keeps the momentum going.

Morgan Hampton and Fernando Pasarin deliver one of the strongest Guy Gardner-focused issues in recent memory with Green Lantern Corps #17. Instead of pushing the larger Emotional Spectrum conflict forward at full speed, the creative team takes a thoughtful detour into Guy’s fractured psyche as the Allsight ability overwhelms him with memories, trauma, and possible futures. Hampton digs deep into Guy’s emotional scars without softening the character’s rough edges, while Pasarin turns the comic itself into an interactive experience with inventive layouts that mirror Guy’s disorientation. The result is a surprisingly emotional and visually ambitious issue that reminds readers there is much more to Guy Gardner than attitude and punches.

Green Lantern Corps #18 raises the stakes of the Aya-Hunters storyline by spotlighting Jessica Cruz's struggles as a leader while continuing to build toward the inevitable showdown on Oa. Morgan Hampton gives Jessica Cruz one of her strongest spotlight issues in recent memory while continuing to develop Aya and the Emotional Spectrum mythology. Though it feels like a bridge chapter, the issue delivers strong character moments and genuinely fun action sequences with inventive action and stellar artwork, making it another enjoyable chapter that makes the wait for the next issue all the more agonizing.

A perfect 10 bullseye of an issue! The voice was spot on, the art matches the tone of the book, and a mystery with guest stars all in the first issue. This was a dynamic debut for Matthew Rosenberg's Hawkeye.

Fantastic issue filled with comedy and action. The identity of Ronin is revealed, but I'm not so sure that the right cat is out of the bag. The mystery deepens and I can't wait for the next issue.

Consistent action and humor deliver in the newest issue. Worthwhile guest stars that will lead into next issue's confrontation, and how Ronin is able to do what he does makes for a fun issue to keep this mini-series hot and exciting.

Great issue with lots of fun moments and drives the story along putting Hawkeye even further in the hole with his good intentions. Rosenberg does a great job playing with Hawk's history and relationships to create fun moments while Schmidt continues to deliver fantastic art, keeping the pace going forwards.

Get ready for a great return to Hawkeye comics as some serious situations are being set up that will have major consequences for Clint's future. This issue is putting into motion some actions that might change Clint's status in the Marvel Universe.

Solid conclusion to a miniseries that contained a lot of humor and action. Rosenberg and Schmidt combined to make an awesome chemistry that made for a humorous, adventure packed, emotional story that looks to be setting Hawkeye up for a major change in status quo.

A fun trip through the Marvel Universe timeline as told by Galactus himself. You will see classic moments in a new way and see how all the characters connect within the continuity of the House of Ideas.

Here is a great comic that can lure you outside of the superhero feats with a mystery. DC Comics will get a chance to showcase its detectives with Christopher Chance in this maxi-series by King and Smallwood. The art is stunning; not overtly gritty, but still very noir. It reminds you of a timeless world that has superheroes but isn't drowning in them.

The Human Target #2 is an attractive dance between two characters that will entice you, but you'll discover hidden agendas by the end. The story drives Chance's mission, and we learn how the JLI are connected to Luthor. Now the question is, why the lies? All that wrapped up in alluring art and color will keep you on the case. The only thing missing from this issue is some soft jazz.

The Human Target #3 is a good issue that showcases a lover's quarrel in the world of spies and superheroes. It's entertaining to watch Guy Gardner and Christopher Chance match wits.

The mystery continues as another member of the JLI is being questioned, but they aren't the story's focus. Chrisotpher Chance is keeping an eye on his partner, Ice. It seems she has noticed, and she heats things up.

The Human Target #5 is a solid issue that dives into the mind and origins of our main character to update them for the modern audience. While looking at the past, a scandal was introduced that might change your mind about the JLI and its connection to this case. Good setup for the fallout!

The last issue of The Human Target before its hiatus leaves the fans wanting more, ending on quite a cliffhanger as we get passion, a lovers' quarrel, and that last page surprise will make this wait insufferable! Tom King and Greg Smallwood deliver in this one-two punch in terms of art and story. I know I'll be racking my brains to figure things out before this series returns.

All in all, this issue is a strong return by the creative team, and depending on how you read it, alliances are formed that could either lead to the real culprit or distract our investigator. Chance is an intelligent man, but it looks like lust and death are taking him on some wild rides.

Christopher Chance versus Rocket Red, what a fight! You will see what the Russian will do to someone who hurts his friend via Tom King and Greg Smallwood's imaginations, and trust me it'll hurt! It all leads to the big question: what does time mean when it is running out?

How often should you look over your shoulder when you're a master of disguise? That number will increase when the Dark Knight Detective is hunting you. Or maybe it's the guilt? Tom King and Greg Smallwood bring their best example of suspense to put the Human Target through the wringer.

This is a great issue featuring a wild teamup between a serious character and a goofball. Chance learns quite a bit, and it'll have you questioning characters' motives as Tom King and Greg Smallwood bring G'Nort in for an appearance. Man's best friend indeed!

With The Human Target #11, Tom King and Greg Smallwood craft an issue that shows how passion can complicate life and death. Christopher Chance finally sees beyond the mystery and seeks a deeper meaning. Ice can't accept her pending loss. The creative team gives us a tale that showcases these hurting hearts.

Tom King and Greg Smallwood's The Human Target wraps up, and the spotlight goes to Ice. If you're a fan of hers, check out this issue you'll understand why revenge is a dish best served cold.

The Flash that started it all gets a moment with his family as they reconnect after being lost in time in Jay Garrick: The Flash #1. Adams, Olortegui, and Guerrero craft an entertaining opener that pulls you in with all of its questions. It's a great start to a miniseries with growing pains and character drama that will test this Flash Family.

Jay Garrick: The Flash #2 is an amusing issue that showcases the new adventures of the Garrick family. Seeing an out-of-time Judy experience modern moments is excellent, and now Jay Garrick is the worried-sick scarlet speedster. Jeremy Adams taps into family life perfectly, and the art team of Diego Olotegui and Luis Guerrero display the antics amazingly!

Jay Garrick: The Flash #3 is an awesome adventure that moves across ages of comics from Golden to Modern. We are treated to some great guest stars that make for fun pairings of heroes which all leads to the secret identity of Dr. Elemental. Check your back issues because this character has been there from the start. Just what are their plans for the end?

Jay Garrick: The Flash #4 is a fantastic origin for a new villain to the Garrick family and a superb example of what the New Golden Age is about! Jeremy Adams weaves Dr. Elemental into the DNA of the Garricks perfectly while building up a villain that could hold his own due to his connection to STAR Labs. Diego Olortegui and Luis Guerrero combine to paint the perfect picture of a madman and an outstanding addition to the DCU.

Jay Garrick: The Flash #5 is another great installment showcasing Jay's newfound fatherhood as he fights to save his daughter from the evil that helped him get his speed. This miniseries has been a wonderful tour of the DCU with its guest stars while seamlessly adding continuity without tripping itself up. It is such an exciting issue that leaves a bittersweet feeling as we approach the conclusion.

Adams, Olortegui, and company give the Garrick family an excellent spotlight that showcases their powers and bond. Just recently reunited and then torn apart by vile Doctor Elemental leads us to an entertaining exploit reminding us that you shouldn't forget about Jay when it comes to Flashes. JSA guest stars, crazy villains, and a wonderful family will explain why the promise of the New Golden Age must continue at DC Comics.

This is a noteworthy moment in the DC Universe as we march towards the Dark Crisis. The issue showcases why they are the World's Greatest Heroes, but Williamson comes up with a significant threat to take them down. Now wrap that up in Sandoval's art, and you will be entertained!

Excellent aftermath to the Death of the Justice League. A simpler version of Funeral for a Friend that nicely showcases hope, heroics, and heritage. This comic will have you do a couple of double takes to what you've read before when it comes to Pariah and sets the stage for Dark Crisis #1!

A team of heroes using their wits and abilities to help people placed in unknown situations is an acceptable reason for a project to exist. You can't go wrong with members of the Justice League for this task, either. Yet this creative team of Ryan Parrott, John Ridley, Mike Perkins, and Adriano Lucas have found a way to mix science, military, heroics, and hidden agendas to create a story where you don't know who to trust. This creative team might have us saying, "Amanda Waller was right about superpowers.

The Atom Project delivers intrigue, dark secrets, and intense battles, including a wild showdown with an atomic-powered bear. While character voices feel off at times, the series builds a suspenseful narrative filled with espionage and superhero drama that keeps readers hooked.

A secret revealed could further split the Atom Project. The Atoms are hunting down Captain Atom, and we learn why, but does General Eiling know this secret, too? Will he force the military to get Captain Atom at any cost? Why is Ray Palmer acting the way he is? Many questions arise with little answer from the project as the issue ends with a potential showdown that has been long awaited.

This issue raises the stakes with a dramatic exploration of the Atom Project, General Eiling's ruthless tactics, and Captain Atom's unwavering sense of duty despite the personal toll. Writers Ryan Parrott and John Ridley skillfully develop the tension between past and present, with a gripping showdown between old rivals and a hint of hope for Ray Palmer's redemption. The art by Mike Perkins and Adriano Lucas amplifies the intensity, and the surprising final page hints at deeper connections to the Justice League Unlimited storyline. While the series has been a bit slow to unfold, the character development and the growing sense of urgency make for some exciting moments, leaving readers eager to see where the next twist will lead.

Justice League: The Atom Project #5 finally puts the pieces in motion. Inferno is revealed, the Atoms debate their intentions, and Captain Atom faces a brutal truth. It's not perfect, but bold and thoughtful as this series finds its feet. It's a step forward with heart that takes this auxiliary title and brings it closer to the main series and events shaping up in DC All-In.

Justice League: The Atom Project #6 wraps up the miniseries with a whimper rather than a bang. Despite consistent art from Mike Perkins and colors from Adriano Lucas, the story struggles to make a lasting impact. While Ryan Choi steps up in a standout moment alongside Captain Atom, the rest of the issue resets the status quo and sidelines any real development for the Atoms, Captain Atom, or the broader Inferno conflict. A few good ideas surface, but in the end, this finale feels more like a missed opportunity than a meaningful miniseries.

Justice Society of America #1 is a great start with action, mystery, and character that will help the JSA return to their all-star status in the DCU. Johns, Janin, and Bellaire craft an entertaining story that will help you want to return to solve this mystery. What's old is new again, but it's deeper, bolder, and more exciting this time!

The mystery of DC's New Golden Age continues as the Huntress faces the original JSA. Can they come together to face an enemy that can take on any time? We'll see the answer to that elongate as Huntress travels across the DC timeline to get help from heroes across other eras.

The action comes to the modern day as Huntress meets the JSA, and things look like they'll move forward until the villain arrives. Geoff Johns, Mikel Janin, Jerry Ordway, and Jordie Bellaire bring the goods from the past and the present to keep the excitement high and build for a showdown.

Degaton vs the JSA and Huntress is the wildcard! New mysteries arise to trouble our heroes, characters are explored, and just how powerful is Degaton? Huntress starts to explore more of the DC landscape and tempts fate with her interactions.

The Society vs. Degaton and his crew is an exciting, entertaining resolution to their current showdown. You'll see JSA members from eras get fantastic moments to shine. Plus, the issue has some great future teases that will have you returning for more of the Justice Society.

Justice Society of America #6 captures what the Society is about: Family, Legacy, and Learning. Johns and guest artist Marco Santucci craft a fantastic issue that takes the Society back to what makes them stand out from the JLA: earnest character moments. This issue was much calmer but rewarded readers of the New Golden Age by showing these stories payoff, plus the increased release frequency capitalizes on the team's energy!

Geoff Johns and Marco Santucci bring us a heaping of characters for the JSA to interact with. When we get some information, there seems to be another door opening, and it will be quite the task to give these classic and new characters enough screen time for this era of the Justice Society to make an impact. The issue drives the story forward but doesn't hit like previous ones have before.

The mysteries from the Lost Children and the Thirteen are getting some answers and interactions, which is excellent. Yet, with each revelation, there is a new situation. Johns, Janin, and Bellaire entertain with the Golden Age Red Lantern and connections to Alan Scott. What will be Ruby's ultimate choice be in our current timeline, and could she prove Huntress wrong about her future JSA team? The revelations will keep readers in suspense.

This issue keeps the JSA on their toes as they help round up Huntress' recruits to help them find redemption while helping Star Girl's Lost Children integrate into the greater DCU. Johns, Janin, and Bellaire round up the entertainment as they keep fans intrigued by revealing who the Legionnaire is and how that identity will impact the now, future, and the Society.

Seeing the JSA in action is exciting, but this issue reads too quickly, leaving you with quite the build-up of emotions. The rift between the team concerning the Golden Age Legionnaire has such potential for character drama, but it is cut short by the cliffhanger ending. Hopefully, the following two issues will be rich and timely so that the New Golden Age can end this arc on a high note.

Justice Society of America #11 teases a big brawl between the Legion and the JSA, which opens up the imagination to see those two teams taking each other on. Johns and Santucci provide an excellent adventure that offers much-needed closure while creating curiosity about what comes next for these characters. Luckily, the gap between issues got tighter, and this issue sparked my hope in how this team is being used.

An era of the Justice Society ends very sincerely as the New Golden Age concludes. Geoff Johns and Todd Nauck deliver a beautiful issue that hits all the right nostalgic notes. Get ready to want to do the journey all over again. Stargirl hits another milestone as her extended family roots her on, reminding us that Titans are Together, the Justice Leaguers are Legends, but the JSA is a family legacy.

I am so glad that we are getting an ending to the last volume of Ghost Rider without having to wait years like we did with Vol. 3. If you want to find out the fates of Johnny and Danny, check this out! If you're wanting to get some Mephisto in your life, check this out! King in Black: Ghost Rider #1 is a good story with beautiful art and a hard choice dilemma.

DC's summer event continues with a high-octane adventure that will have you worried for the heroes. Deadman gets some excellent moments as he squares up with Insomnia to search for the Dream Stone. This creative team will have you wide awake for their quest to save the day.

Knight Terrors #2 continues the story and gives funny banter between Deadman and Sandman while sprinkling in some clues, but it reads like a quick issue. It is enlightening to get some backstory on the Nightmare Stone and Insomnia with a tease of the Sleepless Knights, but some more action would've sealed the deal on this issue.

Joshua Williamson has a superb art team and a noted group of heroes that will give you an adventure that goes to the past and stops at the House of Horror. Sandman, Deadman, and Robin are an excellent sampling of DC's heroes that get the job done, but the story will make you question if this is actually a win for the heroes.

Insomnia reveals his motivations and origins in this issue as things twist and turn for our heroes. Deadman is at a loss, and Sandman is captive, so who will save the day? The conclusion is nearing as Knight Terrors set up real-life nightmares for the DCU coming true.

Knight Terrors concludes with sacrifices made, and one of those will haunt the DCU for a bit. How will images of heroes look after nightmares have distorted them? Night's End gives us a twist on being careful about your dreams and reminds us that heroes can come from anywhere. Get ready for characters to move on and an introduction that will have you wondering who is under the Helmet of Hate.

An alternate take of how much worse things could have been for Hal Jordan. Jeremy Adams sneaks in some clues for his ongoing GL while helping to reestablish GL's place on Earth as he experiences the Knight Terrors of the DCU.

Wrapping up the nightmares of Hal Jordan and Sinestro makes for an entertaining look at what makes these two characters tick. Parallax is no longer a fearful issue for Hal, and when Sinestro is unsure of himself, he finds very polarizing sides to himself. Great wrap-ups that are entertaining and could play further in the main Green Lantern series.

Three great stories from some superstars of the '90s that lay the seeds for future Ghost Rider stories and events! Plus, Chromium Deadpool -- can't go wrong with that!

You can't go wrong with Marvels and the original creative lineup. The extra story and beautiful art by Busiek and Ross help to bring this "DVD extras" comic to life. Marvels fans will return to a classic time in the Marvel Universe while giving tribute to Dave Cockrum in a whole new view.

Go out there and add this comic to your pull list -- this is the book you've been waiting for your whole childhood.

This is just the perfect mashup between two beloved properties. More insights into character and motivations are revealed along with dynamic art. This is a comic book that will put you in a good mood.

An excellent issue that leaves you wanting more. The Rangers and Turtles team up is dynamic, fun and reminds you why you loved these two properties growing up. Another classic character joins the action and adventure awaits as the bad guys are on the rise.

This issue was pure fun, and how could it not be? We see the ultimate idea of a crossover come to be: Power Turtles and Ninja Rangers. The action continues and all the players seem to be adapting to their new settings. This issue sets up nicely for the conclusion of an amazing crossover series. Pick this up, reread the whole series and brace for the conclusion and hopefully many more crossovers between these two properties.

This was a fantastic conclusion to an amazing crossover miniseries that delivered on the wildest dreams of every '90s. Heroic deeds triumph in the face of evil, brilliant mash ups with powers and zords"and of course, pizza!

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #1 opens with a bang and a huge loss, immediately setting a darker, more emotionally charged tone than its predecessors. Ryan Parrott's script trades playful crossover energy for high-stakes drama, using a flash-forward structure that injects every scene with tension and inevitability. Vincenzo Federici's grittier line work and Raul Angulo's weightier colors perfectly complement the shift in mood, making every blow land harder and every quiet beat feel heavier. By issue's end, this isn't just another RangerTurtle team-up; it's the beginning of a reckoning.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #2 slows down the crossover spectacle to let grief and anger take center stage. Ryan Parrott's script digs into the fallout of loss, showing how easily blame can fracture even the strongest teams. Vincenzo Federici's expressive art and Raul Angulo's emotionally charged colors make every clash, glare, and silence resonate. It's a heavier, darker issue than past crossovers, but one that feels honest and necessary, pushing these iconic heroes in bold directions.

Issue #3 deepens the emotional fractures between the Rangers and Turtles while showcasing some of the series' strongest villain control so far. With big character clashes, clever symmetry, and a killer cliffhanger, the creative team sets the stage for what could be the most explosive chapter yet.

MMPR/TMNT III #5 brings the crossover trilogy to a thrilling close, with the Rangers and Turtles pushed to their limits by a mutated Lord Zedd and Green Ranger Shredder. Ryan Parrott shifts the spotlight to Zordon and Master Splinter, delivering a mentor-driven payoff that elevates the emotional stakes. Combined with dark, dynamic artwork and nostalgic flair, this finale balances action, heart, and fan service into a satisfying conclusion, proving once again that this crossover knows exactly what fans want.

This celebration piece helps you revisit or discover Miracleman's wild world. This will be quite the trip for new fans, and for returning fans, it's a reminder of what potential Miracleman can achieve.

It's happening! We are getting closer to a conclusion to Gaiman & Buckingham's Silver Age story in Miracleman. This updated edition features new art and colors, which help to give that Silver Age feel of wonder and excitement.

Significant changes have happened to the Miracle Family, and the new bonds will be tested as moves are made. Young Miracleman will have his newly restored life turned upside down, which was a major cliffhanger for fans of Miracleman back in 1993. Before we get the new material, take time to appreciate this remaster of a significant issue.

We've waited 29 years for this, and the creative team recognized that and delivered an impressive issue. The art and story are a joy to behold, and the issue contains quite a few extras to keep you entertained. Now we wait to see what Dickie will do next.

Neil Gaiman, Mark Buckingham, and Jordie Bellaire bring a deep issue that showcases events that will have an impactful intersection. The Warpsmiths might have other motivations and problems within the Miracle Family, and Young Miracleman doesn't know what to make of the world. More questions and entertainment arise as we could be seeing the world fall apart.

Gaiman, Buckingham, and Bellaire bring us an issue that continues the exploration of the world of Miracles and Dickie Dauntless. There will be parts of the mystery that make you wonder if the memories are real or manufactured. The journey that Dickie is on has eclipsed the story of Miracleman and has you rooting for him every step of the way.

The lost memories of Young Miracleman present a melancholy tale of sorrow and exploitation that led Dickie Dauntless to become a hero. This creative team comes together to craft a story of survival that outshines Miracleman's origin and builds on the foundation of the Original Writer.

Mr. Terrific: Year One #1 delivers a powerful and grounded look at Michael Holt's early days, blending grief, genius, and growing tension in a story that respects the character's legacy while setting up something fresh for his origin. Al Letson's script pairs beautifully with intense art from Valentine De Landro that highlights the emotional weight of Holt's journey, and the hints of future tech and new threats make this a compelling first chapter for longtime fans and new readers alike to witness the rise of an excellent character in the DCU.

Al Letson and the art team continue to shape Mr. Terrific: Year One into something more than just a retelling; it's an actual character excavation. By threading together past trauma, present mystery, and future stakes, this issue deepens Michael Holt's emotional journey without losing sight of his intellect, heart, or pain. Letson's respect for the source material blends well with his drive to expand Holt's world, and the connections to DC's All-In initiative hint that Holt's story is just beginning to ripple outward. Whether it's the family tension with Paula, the lingering guilt of Dre, or the question of how far a man driven by grief can rise. This issue redefines Michael Holt's origin rather than simply retelling it.

Mr. Terrific: Year One #3 continues to impress with its innovative storytelling, emotional depth, and sharp visuals that split time between two pivotal eras in Michael Holt's journey. Al Letson crafts a story that honors the character's legacy while pushing him into new, mysterious territory, rife with tension, tech, and tantalizing DCU ties. With strong connective threads to past events and future promises, this issue proves that Mr. Terrific isn't just a background player, but he's a central figure worth investing in. If you're not reading this series yet, now's the time to catch up before Holt gets too far ahead of the rest of us.

Mr. Terrific: Year One #4 continues Al Letson's layered exploration of Michael Holt's journey, weaving together memories, struggles, and mysterious forces that shape his rise. The issue opens with Holt recalling his father's lessons: treat life like a game, and never accept losing. This framing sets the tone as Michael faces both physical battles and emotional crossroads. A desperate fight nearly ends in disaster until divine intervention arrives. Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne steps in, who reignites Michael's passion for science, reminding readers that Holt's greatest power lies in his intellect. On the villain side, Athena Prescott begins to unravel as a mysterious voice tempts her, raising speculation about its identity and hinting at bigger cosmic threads.

Mr. Terrific: Year One #5 keeps the momentum alive, balancing present-day danger with the formative trials of Holt's past. Al Letson and the art team continue to craft a story that's as much about the man as the mask, and Black Lightning's appearance adds sparks of both conflict and camaraderie that elevate the issue. With its mix of sharp action, thoughtful character beats, and just enough mystery to tease the finale, this chapter proves why Michael Holt's journey deserves the spotlight. If this issue is any indication, the conclusion is set to land with both brains and heart, precisely what Mr. Terrific embodies.

Mr. Terrific: Year One #6 delivers an emotionally resonant, thematically rich conclusion that elevates both Michael Holt's personal journey and his place in the DC Universe. Al Letson's final chapter reshapes the entire series with a powerful narration reveal, deepens Holt's emotional arc, and positions both Mr. Terrific and Athena Prescott for meaningful futures. At the same time, the art team delivers standout, emotionally charged, and character-driven moments. A fulfilling and heartfelt finale and mini-series.

The New Avengers #2 keeps the momentum rolling from the explosive debut issue, delivering a fast-paced, morally complex chapter that puts Bucky Barnes and his ragtag crew through the wringer with clone chaos, magical reinforcements, and the threat of an evil "Killuminati" looming large. This new lineup is barely holding on. Sam Humphries, Ton Lima, and Rain Beredo continue building on killer characters in intense action, adding depth and flair to a familiar formula that's surprisingly fresh.

If you had fallen off the Nightwing book, then this is a perfect issue to return with. If you stayed with the book, then Dan Jurgens and company have found a new hook to reward the fans. There is some payoff with Ric's situation that will make the next issues of the main series very interesting.

Nightwing might be the book that benefits most from the upcoming "Joker War" crossover.

This was a great issue that continues to build on the momentum from last issue. This is a darker Ric than we are used to, but it has been exposed that he is being mind manipulated and the worst part is that the Joker is behind it. This series is starting to get its legs again and that's exciting.

'Nightwing' #73 is another great issue that gets us closer to some closure with Grayson's current status. This issue really makes you think how lucky we were to have Ric, because the Joker has created an even worse monster: one who looks like family.

Overall, this is a good issue that hardcore Wingnuts will be excited to read as the surprising return of Dick Grayson happens here. The story is decent, but does suffer due to crossover tie-ins, but this is really about the return of Dick and Bea's heroism, which make this worthwhile.

Nightwing #75 is a good issue, worth a read to see the next leg of Dick's journey. The heart is there, but it does feel a little lackluster at times. There are great character moments, but this issue is rather slow. Just when the pace picks up, we find out the wait will continue.

Nightwing #76 is a much needed issue where we finally see Nightwing let loose on KGBeast after all that fallout from the shooting. This was such an emotional roller coaster -- it did utilize a classic lone hero trope, but it was played very nicely by the creative team to make it worthwhile.

Nightwing #77 is great ending to a series that had lost its way, but returned to greatness. This issue showcases a perfect holiday miracle by showing a hero who uses his heart, and is a perfect example of why we and the DCU love Dick Grayson.

Taylor, Redondo, Lucas, and the whole team have done Dick Grayson and his history justice. This being a high-profile launch, I can see why DC didn't need a new costume or a #1, because the story sells itself without the hyperbole. Get this book as best as you can; I promise you won't be let down by the adventure inside this big top.

Nightwing #79 is a perfect followup to last issue, with excellent world building. I know these sites and characters are not new, but this book is laying down solid foundation while planting new seeds that should entertain classic fans and enrapture new ones. Amazing art and wonderful words come together under this big top!

Infinite Frontier's new direction for Nightwing is just awesome entertainment. We get witty dialogue, considerable character interactions, and vile villains. We're drawing closer to the confrontation of Heartless and Nightwing, but the journey to that moment is pure enjoyment!

Fantastic issue! The arc is wonderful all on its own, but this new story reveal could really rock Dick Grayson's world.

Nightwing #82 showcases the love that people have for the Graysons, but we are not out of disaster just yet -- someone evil is coming to visit for that great cliffhanger of a page. A delicate matter perfectly handled by this creative team; get ready for another sell-out!

This new creative team's first arc concludes, and it is a smash hit! This is a great example of what DC's Infinite Frontier should be about: embracing character and history. Dick Grayson once again feels like an important character, even when outside the costume. The love and adventure appear while entertaining all types of fans!

A beautiful issue that shows the DC Universe is moving forward while embracing legacy and tradition. After this issue, I can see Dick Grayson and Jon Kent as the World's Finest, and this perfectly sets them up as respected leaders for the impending darkness that will attack the DCU.

Punchline #1 is a good setup issue that dives into Punchline's origins and motivations, but still enough to question her mentality. I appreciate the commentary she brings and how divisive she can be. Plus, getting to see Harper Row again is very exciting.

This is a fantastic opener. Tom King will leave you asking questions, Dave Stewart will bring a set of colors that enhances the noir vibe, and Jorge Fornes will intoxicate your eyes with his images. I can't believe I'm reading a comic in 2020 where the names Otto Binder, Frank Miller, and Rorschach are all attached. Mystery hype is real!

Rorschach #2 is a great issue overall, but your enjoyment will hinge on you wanting to solve a mystery. This is the long game, so be patient -- but while deciphering evidence, relax and enjoy the astonishing art of Jorge Fornes. Don't forget to ask yourself what is Tom King trying to tell us with the characters he is introducing us to.

Rorschach #3 is a great issue that shows us the making of a monster with Laura Cummings, but at the same time presents a torn conflict -- if you had lived through what that family did, could you see that as normal? Looks like our main Detective might be considering that now too. So watch our for the Squids as you enjoy the beautiful art inside.

Rorschach #4 is a slow burn of an issue, but deep art and mysterious writing have me gripped and ready for more.

Rorschach #5 is a great addition to the overall mystery of Rorschach. I am invested in our point of view character and I enjoy all the new clues to add to my string theory board. The words and art come together magnificently to cause me to dig deeper into this new yet familiar world.

All in all, Rorschach #36 is a great issue that asks more questions, sets up some amazing suspense, and shows us more about Wil and Laura. But can we trust what we are being shown? More mystery in this adventure set in the Watchmen World.

Overall, Rorshach #7 is a great opener for the second half of this mystery. We still don't know much, but the line between sane and insane are blurring, which makes for thought-provoking reading. I enjoyed the dose of reality that is in this issue and can't wait to see where it leads us next.

Rorschach #8 is another great issue that adds to the mystery and gives you a lot to think about between issues, fantastic art that makes you question the reality of the situation, and a major puzzle that is begging to be solved. This is building my hype, so I can't wait till we start getting some answers.

Rorschach #9 is a great chapter that builds on the overall story. Each month I walk away from an issue with a deep story to think about and new clues from the real world that could tie in. I feel like I'm with the detective, and the ride continues to get wilder!

While this is a slower, tamer issue, Rorschach #10 is nonetheless a good addition to the series with new developments that tease the reader and makes that monthly wait even harder. Knowing what you know now, it might be a good time to go back and check facts.

Rorschach #11 is a great issue that walks a fine line between adding to the mystery and making you feel like you're following a crazy man. The issue will raise lots of questions, which is fun since this is a mystery. The art team gets some great opportunities to allow the dead to come back and present their side, so now it is up to you to decide before all is revealed (hopefully).

The conclusion is here, and it will polarize fans, but you need to think about what is happening and ask yourself...what do you see? How do you really feel about our Detective, Laura, and Turley? Isn't that the point of a Rorschach test after all?

This is looking to be a great story of the struggle of a good man as he has to fight his own dark inner impulses, and Chip inflicts some real torture on his main characters. There is also a write up after the story from Chip that just gives you a rundown of what to expect from this new era. Spider-Man: Spider's Shadow #1 is the perfect opener to this, and I really look forward to what else is coming from this new run of What If!

Don't miss this issue/mini-series as it will peel back the curtain and add to what is happening in Ghost Rider. Ed Brisson does a great job with the characters of Lilith, Johnny, and Danny by showcasing their situations and creating motivations. Looks like seeds are planted that may culminate in a potential Marvel event, so get in on the ground floor.

Spirits of Vengeance is a new series that fittingly begins its focus on the '90s character Vengeance. What a sad fate that spirit is suffering, but what will cause his new mission, and how does it involve the Ghost Riders? Questions arise from this issue as it starts setting up the foundation for this new adventure. It also ties to the past will they come into play in the future? The engine is restarted and warming up; hopefully, it will be a hell of a ride.

Spirits of Violence #1 brings the Ghost Riders roaring back onto the page after their "Spirits of Vengeance" arc, this time with a sharper focus on legacy, family, and honesty. Sabir Pirzada leans into the tangled Blaze/Ketch family tree. He uses that history to spark friction between Riders, while also pointing out the glut of "spirit characters that have haunted Marvel's recent years. Paired with Paul Davidson's moody line work and Andrew Dalhouse's chilling colors, the result is a strong, atmospheric opener that balances spooky spectacle with character-driven drama.

A brutal, grief-soaked chapter that digs into what Ghost Rider's legacy truly costs, even if the pacing sputters. Still, the emotional stakes are rising, the violence is vicious, and the ghosts of the past are tightening their grip. This isn't a clean chapter, but it is a haunting one.

Geoff Johns and Todd Nauck are back with mystery and adventure as we look for The Lost Children. They are using elements from all across the DCU, including newly discovered ones, to make a fun, entertaining miniseries that rejuvenates the Golden Age.

Stargirl: The Lost Children #2 hits all the emotional beats while advancing the mystery. We can see that the Childminder isn't messing around, which puts Stargirl and Red Arrow in a dangerous spot. Geoff Johns and Todd Nauck deliver a potent one-two punch with the art and story as we continue the search for the Lost Children.

Stargirl: The Lost Children #3 is a character-driven issue that hits you with forgotten classic characters and introduces you to new ones that you will want to watch. Geoff Johns and Todd Nauck reveal just enough to keep you wondering but also add more to the mystery, making this story a hidden gem of a DC comic.

Stargirl: The Lost Children #4 is a great issue ignites the adventure these Lost Children are on. Lots of sacrifices, hurt, and hope await if they can escape. Yet the Child Minder brings The Buyer to the island, and what a surprise it is when you discover who it is. Questions arise, but adventure awaits!

A significant issue where Geoff Johns, Todd Nauck, and Matt Herms come together to get Stargirl and the Lost Children fighting back against the Child Minder before the big conclusion. Character connections, action, and drama are waiting for you in this issue that helps build up the New Golden Age.

The Lost Children was a fun adventure that showcased the innocence of youth and the dangers of comic book characters being forgotten. Johns and Nauck craft story and pages that hit emotions and bring excitement; this was a great mini that introduced new and classic characters to readers. In the end, where will they all go?

Strikeforce is shaping up to be an interesting mix of heroes going up against evil forces. The issue doesn't stand alone, so be ready to commit if you want to see this team in action, but the team members do work really well together.

Great miniseries that will finally take a Superman adventure from the radio series and bring it to the comics wold. Great tale with lots of character struggle with real world issues. Fantastic art that shows a timeless Superman as well.

Overall, this is a strong issue that really puts the characters into deep internal struggles that will affect them and also has them questioning themselves. Great coming-of-age and also a fantastic early adventure of Superman.

Fantastic conclusion and showcase of the moments you've been waiting for, including lots of firsts for Superman. The children in this story also are very strong characters and you care about their struggles as well. If you want an adventure with growth along with positivity and hope, here is an adventure worthy of Superman.

Priest, Pagulayan, Paz, and Cox unite as a tremendous force, crafting a beautiful story that tests Lois and Clark's relationship while showing fans how wild their world can be. A Superman shaken to his core and estranged from his wife seems to be a welcoming story for the Man of Tomorrow.

Priest and Carlo Pagulayan continue to show Superman's odyssey as he is lost in space and time. Encounters that will leave trauma on Superman as he returns. This issue will make you think about how vital a breath can be in a crazy situation.

Superman's biggest problem in this issue is...being Superman! Priest, Carlo Pagulayan and company take being Superman to a level of helping and punishment that drives Superman on such an emotional journey for our entertainment. Get ready to see how lonely and cold the universe can be.

Clothes make the Superman as we learn the value of his suit. Saving people is an integral part of Superman's character and get ready to see a side of him as struggles with the fact that he needs to be saved. Plus, ideals clash as Superman struggles with what do in the conflict created by Priest and Carlo Pagulayan.

Superman's Odyssey continues as his life is challenged by the past, present, and choices he might make. The veil continues to peel back as we discover the fallout of Szhemi's death and what the Lantern brings to this journey. Can Superman find and trust hope?

The ruse of Superman on Superman is just not enough to carry this issue and story arc any further. 10 months for this odyssey to complete is a big ask. There are redeeming qualities like the situation between Lois and Lex Luthor, the fantastic art by Weeks and Pagulayan, and Superman seeking help. Still, this issue shows that this will read better as a collected edition since the time wait is taken out.

Jon has to deal with the all-too-real price of heroics sometimes, and you can tell that while he is Superman, he still has a lot of growing to do. It is a tough job to take on, and Jon is doing excellently, and I love that he is wise enough to recognize that he doesn't have to do it alone. The shared talk with Jon and Dick was great, and it felt like such a bonding moment that will lead to this next generation of Superman and Batman trusting each other a lot more than their fathers do.

Overall, this was a very good issue. It was nice to see different characters in the event and a good struggle was placed on all of them with dealing with love and death, but it did leave me wanting more.

This issue is FANTASTIC! I highly enjoyed the way this took several events and tied them up very nicely by way of Blue Beetle. This story has heart and gives a dark take on what happens when we take on more than we can handle. Highly recommended!

This anniversary special is the perfect celebration, revisiting and adding to one of the biggest stories in comics. This issue will awaken your inner child and bring back the wonder, excitement, and drama you experienced the day Superman died.

The New Golden Age #1 invites all to explore the rich world of DC Comics. Legacy, mystery, and fantastic adventure await the reader as they are spellbound by the beautiful art inside. I was reminded of the wonder and promise of the DC Universe Rebirth Special and am hyped for this new Golden Age!

This book is a great idea and I had fun reading it, but I would have loved more new content. Still, this might get new fans to come over to Deadpool's way of thinking.

Starfire fans, take heed: this issue will expand on her origins and connections to the Beast World event. Brother Righteous was shown to be from Tamaran, but when you discover how connected he was to Starfire's woes, you'll understand her anger from that cover tease. Great sync with the DC event!

It's always darkest before the dawn. This issue proves it, as the Titans are against the ropes, but they regroup and come together for a costly win.
