Review: Doomsday Clock #2

By Dustin Cabeal

It’s likely that Doomsday Clock will go down as the greatest waste of Gary Frank’s talents. I pop for the artwork for sure, but this story is so incredibly dull. I 100% stand by everything I said in my first review of the series. None of that has changed. This is just Geoff Johns making sure he’s the one that gets to play in the Watchmen world before anyone else can. I’m sure next year we’ll see plenty of the characters as they flood the DCU… or maybe not.

Review: Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #18

By Cat Wyatt

Issue number 18 for Batgirl and the Birds of Prey is more a single issue story than the start of a new plot. This one happens to be titled Eco-Deadly (got to love the environmentally conscious points of this series). Joining Batgirl on this adventure (because Batgirl is obviously involved) are Black Canary and Huntress. Which is pretty standard, as the rest of the ladies tend to be pretty busy.

Review: Giants #2

By Dustin Cabeal

Giants is definitely one of the best new titles from Dark Horse since Black Hammer. It’s been a while since I enjoyed a sci-fi title as much as I have Giants, but also, I will always have a soft spot for Dark Horse. The past few years have left me wanting to read more from them, but ultimately, not finding much that I enjoyed. After just two issues, Giants has me looking forward to the next month and the one after.

Review: Judas #2

By Dustin Cabeal

If I had only two words to describe Judas, it would be “Forced Drama.” If I had more than two words, which I do, it would probably be: Judas and Lucifer, shooting the shit in hell. The concerning thing about this comic is that we’re halfway through it and so far the only thing that’s happened is a condensed retelling of Judas’ story and Lucifer’s story. I sure as hell hope that the condensed retellings are somehow important to their character development in the next two issues because otherwise it was a waste of time and will likely be the sinking point of this mini-series.

Review: Suicide Squad #33

By Cat Wyatt

Apparently, this week was the week that DC decided to change things up with their plots (see my review for Wonder Woman). I love that they’re trying some new things, and this issue is no exception. In issue #33 of Suicide Squad, the perspective is not from one of the antiheroes we’re used to, but rather an unknown Task Force X recruit named Juan Soria.

Review: Ninjak vs. The Valiant Universe #1

By Dustin Cabeal

I will tell you something; I’m glad I read the first page of this comic. It’s a letter from Publisher Fred Pierce talking about the creation of this comic. The title of the series might be familiar in that it shares the name and concept as the web series that Valiant and Super Power Beat Down did last year.

Review: Sleepless #2

By Ben Snyder

Another entry into the Sleepless series another peak into the fantastical world these characters inhibit. While Sleepless #2 focuses more so on the politics of this universe, the few tidbits of information we get regarding the world, and it’s varying inhabitants and organizations definitely do the story justice and flesh out a much larger and intricate universe that one would initially assume.

Review: Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #36

By Cat Wyatt

Issue 35 left us off with four of the Green Lanterns rushing into danger in an attempt to rescue Ganthet and Sayd. We knew that time was short, as Sayd was due to be the next victim to the Controllers plans. Thankfully our heroic team arrived in time, but the fight was cut short by the end of the issue. Now we finally get to see what happens.

Review: Stabbity Bunny #1

By Dustin Cabeal

With a name like Stabbity Bunny I knew I had to check this comic out. Comics and novels are one of the few forms of media that can have a name that’s entirely out there and find success, which leads to finds like Stabbity Bunny.

The book is not really about the bunny. Instead, it's about a girl named Grace that’s kidnapped from the Zoo one day. Her mother received a ransom call, and the money is seemingly not an issue for her as she pulls it from her stash of cash and guns. Meanwhile, Grace and her bunny are being kept safe, but it’s clear that the man still wants to kill her. Good thing she has her bunny.

Review: Mister Miracle #6

By Kelly Gaines

For fans of the current run of Mister Miracle, The depth of the relationship between Scott Free and Big Barda has been both refreshing and melancholy. After issue #5 broke our hearts with the sweet normalcy of Scott and Barda’s life on earth amidst their otherworldly battles, Mister Miracle #6 manages to give readers a similar feeling of innocent monotony walled in by extraordinary circumstance. Issue six picks up with Scott and Barda as they navigate the impending doom brought on by Scott’s death sentence.
