smallville#13

Yes, what Joss Whedon did with Buffy turning it into a comic is what Smallville producers and writers have done. Smallville: Season 11 is a comic series that picks up six months after the events of the Smallville series finale. When Clark Kent finally became Superman we knew the show was over. Sad thing is,  [ Read More ]

Nightwing20

I saw the latest issue of Nightwing and I had to pick it up. I got into him when I started to play Injustice. I wasn’t disappointed by this comic. I actually like Nightwing as a stand alone character. I think he is more of a shot at the hip guy than the classic taking-his-time  [ Read More ]

I was always a Batman fan but got into comics late so I never knew the other story-lines or characters. I am liking the New 52 reboot with every new story-line I encounter. While I was at my local comic book store the Spider’s Web, I saw a weird looking Batman and I picked it  [ Read More ]

The Superior Spiderman #9 Review

This issue reminds me of the movie Inception, mainly because it takes place inside of Peter Parker’s mind. Basically, Doc Oc has taken over Spidermans mind and body. You really feel bad for Doc Oc in some ways but mostly for Spidey.  This is the best Superior Spiderman issue I have read so far. I  [ Read More ]

I just picked up the latest issue of Superior Spiderman and I was hooked. It’s a great story line and without giving to much away Dr. Oc is one of the main characters along with Peter Parker. I always loved Spiderman and all of his villains so this new story line was a definite must  [ Read More ]

Teen Titans #19 Review

TeenTitans19

The New 52 Teen Titans is what you would expect of teenagers battling evil. It’s funny, awkward, and sometimes strange when they are fighting for justice or between themselves. You have Red Robin, Superboy, Wonder Girl and others fighting together side-by-side. As teenagers, their hormones are running rampant, and fighting between each other isn’t something  [ Read More ]

Aquaman#19

First things first: When I was told to read the new Aquaman comic, I was baffled. I have heard “Aquaman Sucks” on the Big Bang Theory so many times it turned me off to the idea of him—period. Let’s just say I’m glad I didn’t listen to the critics. I picked up the latest New  [ Read More ]

From the outset of the first story arc since Death of a Family, what felt like should have been the major plot twist was revealed the moment I turned the page. As I jumped from panel-to-panel of Bruce Wayne holding up a bank, then shooting Jim Gordon in the chest with nonlethal shotgun shells before  [ Read More ]

SupermanAC20

In my last review of Superman: Action Comics the New 52, we learned that Lex is using some new technology to harness the man of steels DNA and use it against him. Does anything really ever work out for Mr. Luthor? We shall see. A parasite did start to grow on Clarks hand after a  [ Read More ]

Batman Arkham Asylum is one of my favorite games to date.  When I heard that there was going to be a sequel to say I was happy would be an understatement.  I saw the first trailer my mind started to buzz with ideas of what the storyline could be. We see a dying joker and  [ Read More ]
