Review: Heavenly Blues #5
By Cat Wyatt
Issue #5 of Heavenly Blues continues the tale of our dead criminals, this time with a focus on James. This fact is immediately made obvious by the fact that James is on the cover of the issue, usually a good indicator in this series that the character’s backstory is about to be revealed.
Review: Batgirl #23
By Cat Wyatt
Issue #23 of Batgirl brings us the conclusion to the Strange Loop plotline. In the last issue, we learned that Batgirl was trapped in a series of scenarios occurring inside her own head and if she didn’t figure out a way to free herself things would go very poorly for her.
Review: Barrier #4
By Cat Wyatt
It’s time for issue #4 of Barrier. How they’re planning on following up the extraordinary storytelling style shown in the last issue is anyone’s guess. The last time we saw our weary and unwilling travelers, they were trapped in a room that was rapidly filling with a water-like substance. Here we’ll hopefully not only find out they survive that, but how they’re planning on getting out of this situation altogether.
Review: Batman Beyond #20
By Cat Wyatt
With Payback taken care of, once again, Batman Beyond is free to start something new. While Batman Beyond #20 does start off a new plot, called the Jokers Are Out for Blood, it doesn’t ignore the multiple plots that are already in the air. This issue will either make fans very happy or very angry, depending on their ship of choice.
Review: Suicide Squad #42
By Cat Wyatt
Suicide Squad #42 continues the Constriction plot started in the previous issue. Deadshot’s daughter has been kidnapped by Kobra, and Batman is the only one that seems willing to stick his neck out and help the man go out and rescue her. It’s a bit more complicated than that, but isn’t it always?
Review: Wonder Woman #47
By Cat Wyatt
Wonder Woman #47 continues the Dark Gods plot that was started in the last issue. Last we saw Super Girl had gone crazy and started attacking Diana. She isn’t the first supernatural person to go off the wall this plot, but hopefully, she’ll be the last.
Review: Lumberjanes #50
By Cat Wyatt
It’s not every day a comic gets to hit the big five-oh, but that’s exactly what the Lumberjanes have done. Here our crew is back for issue #50, and fans couldn’t be happier about it. The last we saw of this curious cabin they were stuck inside thanks to the weather, and we all know how quickly these kids can get into trouble when left to their own devices.
Review: Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #45
By Cat Wyatt
Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps #45 continues the "Darkstar Rising" plot that’s been running for the last few issues, and man has it been an intense run. With the Darkstars going after every ranking criminal with lethal force, the Green Lanterns have found themselves desperately seeking ways to stop them.
Review: Motherlands #5
By Cat Wyatt
Motherlands is one of those series that really knows how to rip out your heart and stomp on it. Every time you think you’ve got the series figured out, and that you’ve seen the worst it has to offer, it throws another curveball at you. Motherlands #5 is no exception to this rule, so be prepared. The last issue left us off with Tabitha finally successfully tracking down Bubba, only to find him grieving over his dead father.
Review: Barrier #3
By Cat Wyatt
The third issue of Barrier is out, and I have to admit I’ve been really looking forward to this one. I’ve heard talk about it before – it’s the first online comic to be entirely nonverbal. Considering the story being told this actually makes sense, but it’s still such an interesting idea.
Review: Barrier #2
By Cat Wyatt
Barrier continues its unique storytelling style in this second issue. It’s the second out of five issues in total, and it really isn’t afraid to take any risks. When last we saw Liddy and Oscar they were being picked up by an alien spaceship, of all things. I don’t know how they’re going to get out of this situation, but I can only assume that they’re going to have to learn to work together in order to succeed.
Review: Barrier #1
By Cat Wyatt
Barrier isn’t a new series, but it is absolutely worth reading. It was originally shared on PanelSyndicate.com (and can actually still be found there). It’s being put into print for the first time ever this month, and honestly, even if you’ve already read the series before it’s worth picking up and taking a look at. The artwork is absolutely stunning, and I think it shows off beautifully in print format – especially the covers (have I ever mentioned that I’m a total sucker for pretty covers?).
Review: Rat Queens v2 #9
By Cat Wyatt
It’s time for another Rat Queens issue! I’m sure I’m not the only fan out there that’s been wondering what has been going on, and this issue mercifully starts to give us answers. Granted, it also gave me a lot more questions, but one step at a time, right? Keeping with the style of the last few issues we see yet another Rat Queen missing from the cover; this time it’s Violet who’s in the white silhouette. That leaves just Hannah and Betty on the cover. I wonder who will be the last gal standing? (For the record: I’m rooting for Betty).
Review: Batwoman #15
By Cat Wyatt
The Fall of the House of Kane continues in Batwoman number 15. Last we saw Kate she was in a race against time; her sister has gone back to being Alice and has arranged for a bunch of disease-riddled bats to fly over and infect as many people as possible. Kate is a carrier as well, which makes her immune to the risks…it also means she carries the cure in her blood. The question is, how can she possibly handle everything on her own?
Review: Lucy Dreaming #3
By Cat Wyatt
The third installment of Lucy Dreaming is here, bringing us past the halfway point of the series (it’s a five-part miniseries). This has been an imaginative and unique series so far, and now that we know what’s happening to Lucy and why we should be free to dig into the real plot of the story.
Review: Batman #47
By Cat Wyatt
Issue number 47 of Batman brings about the end to the Gift plotline (AKA the Booster Gold plot). While it was interesting, I have to say that I won’t be sad to see it go. Time to get on to bigger and better things! (Here’s hoping the wedding they’ve been building up to is both). Still, I was curious to see how they’d resolve the conundrum Booster created…
Review: Death of Love #4
By Cat Wyatt
The second to last issue of Death of Love is here, and I have to admit it’s already a little bittersweet. I’ve been enjoying this series, so I’ll be sad to see it go. In the meantime, I’m going to do my very best to enjoy it while I have it! In the last issue, we saw Philo drugging his two (and possibly only) friends to prove that he wasn’t crazy (because that’s the sort of thing a sane and considerate person would do…oh wait), and well…they now understand what he’s been wailing about this whole time.
Review: Green Lanterns #47
By Cat Wyatt
We’re nearing the conclusion to the Ghosts of the Past plot, and man have things gotten pretty intense. Jess is trapped inside her own memories, courtesy of Singularity Jain; Simon is trying to get inside to rescue her, and the rest of the Justice League are waiting outside and probably wishing they could do more to help.
Review: Wonder Woman #46
By Cat Wyatt
After everything that has been going on the last few issues, it’s time to get a new plot rolling. This one is called ‘All Hail the Dark Gods’ and it gives a pretty good idea of what Wonder Woman will be facing off against in the very near future.
Review: Prism Stalker #3
By Cat Wyatt
Issue three of Prism Stalker brings us back to the psychedelic worlds that we’ve come to know and love in just a few short issues. This issue continues the saga of the new world that Vep is supposed to be helping to colonize, at least, that’s assuming she passes all of her training.
