Review: Suicide Squad #41

By Cat Wyatt

With the last of the Hack plot being wrapped up in the last issue, it’s time for Suicide Squad to take on a new plot. This plot is looks like it’s going to be different than the usual Suicide Squad stories, and I have high hope for how it’s going to go. Okay, if I'm fair at least part of that hope is coming from the seriously badass cover for this issue (seriously, look at it!) but I’m okay with that.

Review: Analog #2

By Ben Snyder

It says a lot that I’m continually left fascinated by Analog’s world despite writer Gerry Duggan’s hit or miss script. The post-internet world is so captivating that it feels as if there are endless possibilities. With the new addition of government intervention in private affairs, it seems as though Analog is on a more set path than previously thought which definitely helps, and Duggan’s humor is a much appreciated counter-balance to the heavy noir elements present in the story. Despite some initial trepidation due to an unnecessarily long fight scene, Analog #2 adjusts itself and delivers a solid issue to continue the story.

Review: Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #22

By Cat Wyatt

Batgirl and the Birds of Prey issue #22 brings about the conclusion to the Full Circle plot it’s been running. When we last saw our heroes, Canary had finally (and very successfully) taken out Burnrate, as well as maybe hitting her allies (side note; Catwoman and Ivy both joined this fight as well), during which time Helena had been kidnapped by Calculator and his people.

Review: Detective Comics #980

By Hunter T. Patrick

Welcome to the penultimate issue of Tynion IV’s Detective Comics run. Has it been incredible? Eh. Has it been bad? Eh. Now we are ending this run the only way this run knows how with an eh. The problem with the run that also is a huge problem with this issue is that there are so many great characters at play, but not enough time to see them do anything but be in the middle of the action. Like most issues, this is another one jam-packed with action. It refuses to take a breather as we go from scene to scene, its a wonder how this run of twice monthly, two-year comic run is supposed to wrap this arc up in the next issue. If it can be pulled off, then I salute Tynion, but as of this issue, I feel any ending would be way too rushed.

Review: Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #44

By Cat Wyatt

Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps is back, and so are the Darkstars. I’ve been excited about this plot, so it feels like the wait between each issue is insanely long (I know, I’m super impatient like that). A quick recap, for those that have missed any issues; The Controllers created a force called the Darkstars, intending to control them and have them rival the Green Lanterns. While they succeeded in the later, the former not so much. Now the Green Lanterns are assembling their collective allies to try and deal with the great threat here.

Review: The Spider King #4

By Sam King

This is the last issue of the currently planned miniseries, although based on the ending, this may not be the full end of the story. The Spider King finally concludes, and I enjoyed the last half of the miniseries much more than the beginning half. This comic is basically what happens when you combine Vikings and aliens. It is the unlikely and chaotic marriage of historical fantasy elements and science fiction craziness.
