DC’s The New 52 has done it again. Batgirl is 100% awesome. I enjoyed this issue one page at a time. This series is one for my personal collection. Barbra Gordon is a hot piece of ass, that also enjoys kickin’ some as well. This is one of the darker DC comics I’ve read so  [ Read More ]

I was at the Spiders Web, my local comic book store in Yonkers last week. I was getting ready to go to the Hamptons for a small family weekend vacation and I needed something more than comics to quench my geek thirst. The owner told me to pick up Marvels Illuminati. It was a short  [ Read More ]

All-New_X-Men_Vol_1_10.

The All New X-Men is one of Marvels best comics I’ve read this year. I always held a special place in my heart for the X-Men. Mostly because of the reality of our worlds genetic mutations. Mutations are happening every day. I understand that doesn’t mean magnetic manipulation or conjuring ice because you want to.  [ Read More ]

Grimm #1 Review

Grimm_1

Grimm started out as one of NBC’s newest television programs. I’m ashamed to have not seen it as I’m a fan of Buffy, Angel, Charmed, and all the other magical-ish shows. This comic made me have some interest in watching the previous seasons. Grimm is a monthly issue, published by Dynamite and it is also  [ Read More ]

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 ]

The Superior Spiderman #9 Review

ssm1

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 ]

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 ]

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 ]
