The Hellfire makes its rocky way towards its end with three more issues, just as DC starts and interesting path with its Infinite Frontier miniseries. DC is finally giving us what we want, a more open DC Universe. If only it didn’t feel so disingenuous, as the major characters and their titles limp a bit […]
DC has been going ham these last few weeks with showing off their diverse heroes, but this week is the beginning of something more long term. Representation isn’t in just a one-shot, but in the start of a new series about a classic hero. Static returns with a new #1, and it’s… intriguing. The Hellfire […]
So it’s been over 2 years since Mortal Kombat 11 came out, 4 years since Injustice 2, and over ten since Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe came out. Yeah, time flies, but that can only mean one thing… more theorizing on what the next NetherRealm game will be. There have been a ton of rumors […]
Spoilers for DC Pride #1. A lot like DC Festival of Heroes, DC Pride is a book dedicated to representing people not represented enough in media. The LGBTQ+ community is underrepresented in superhero comics in particular. There are only two DC series out with a LGBT character in the lead, Harley Quinn and Crush & […]
The Hellfire Gala begins this week with a whopping three issues. I hope your fans of Marauders, X-Force, and/or Hellions, because if you’re not… this probably wasn’t a good week. Though, to be honest, I don’t expect many X-fans to be left wanting, even if they’re not fans of any of the series this week. […]
So Marvel’s Avengers has been out a while, and I think it’s pretty good. It could be worse, could be better, could still use an actual road map. Basically it’s just a four player co-op game about the Avengers. It has pretty fun combat, a pretty good story, and a terrible loot system. It’s better than […]
This was a strange weak. Neither DC nor Marvel disappointed me this week. Even the weakest of DC was still pretty good. Overall, the heights of both X-Men, New Mutants, and Harley Quinn have me on a comic book high. Hell, even the rather lackluster TMNT: The Last Ronin, couldn’t bring me down. If you […]
SPOILER ALERT for Dynamite’s Red Sonja, written by Gail Simone. Check out the video review on YouTube. I had only just started reading sword and sorcery comics when I wrote this review. I had started with Marvel’s Conan the Barbarian series, written by Jason Aaron. In that series Aaron made a strong starting point for […]
Stevevis was just arrested for killing the Prime Minister of Titania. He was marched through the streets like a dog, walked to his own slaughter. In a glass cage, with a bag over his head, he was treated with disdain from the Titanians he tried to protect. He was in a fishbowl, where only his […]
This week was light on comics, both from my pull list and in general. Usually this doesn’t happen until the last Wednesday of the month, but I’m not complaining. Between the long awaited arrival of the new Wonder Girl and some continuing favorites in X-Men and Daredevil, I didn’t read a single bad issue this […]
