Review: The Shadow v3 #4

By Justin McCarty

Shadow number four is out this week, and up until the last issue we were mostly confined to a hospital room, Mr. Crispy gave his backstory, Mary did make it out to the world to do some sleuthing. At the end of issue three, The Shadow escapes as a SWAT team storms his hospital room. Mary, of course, goes after him and finds him on the rooftops, wearing the slouch hat, cloak, and twin .45s. It was an exciting conclusion, leaving me dying to know what would happen!

Review: The Shadow/Batman #2

By Ben Snyder

Picking up exactly where the last issue left off The Shadow/Batman #2 is another enthralling entry into the second crossover of two of the most iconic and historic characters in all of comics. While certainly not perfect in all regards, Steve Orlando and Giovanni Timpano do more than enough to justify the existence of this comic.

Review: The Shadow v3 #3

By Justin McCarty

The saga of Mr. Crispy continues! Issue three of The Shadow Vol 3 is out, and it takes us a little deeper into the mystery of The Shadow’s investigation into President Wyatt and his aid Worthy Delaney. So far this story started out with strong social commentary notes, but then gets a little more subtle, the story gets even more subtle with this issue. At first glance, you might think there wasn’t much in this issue. You’d be wrong and haven’t been paying attention.

Review: The Shadow/Batman #1

By Justin McCarty

Here is the newest Shadow Batman team up. It promises to give us the best of Batman and The Shadow as they have to deal with a decades-old conspiracy. There has been a steady run of Batman Shadow books lately, and that's for a good reason, they feed into each other. The Shadow inspired Batman, and it’s clear as Batman became popular, the mythos fed back into The Shadow stories. As long as we keep making great Batman Shadow comics, the loop will continue.

Review: Shadow Vol. 3 #2

By Justin McCarty

The pieces are falling into place in issue two of The Shadow Vol. 3. The circumstances leading up to The Shadow's last appearance and the burned gentleman’s arrival at the hospital are starting to make the news. Mary’s story starts to take shape as she recruits her sister in the mission to find out who Mr. Crispy might be. The whole thing possibly goes all the way to the President!

Review: The Shadow v3 #1

By Justin McCarty

The Shadow knows! The newest Shadow story puts The Shadow in present day up against a mysterious evil called The Leviathan. We don’t get much about the Leviathan in this issue but what we do get is promising. I was excited to see a new Shadow story; I’m a huge fan! This book is a great start to a new Shadow series.

Review: Batman/The Shadow #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Lately, DC has been teaming up a lot of character with other companies. It’s not a bad play as it was a heavy staple of the 90s and I doubt anyone would argue that it was a business practice that sunk the industry. If anything, it was a decent practice that made comics fun so in a lot of ways, it’s nice to see it back. Now, that’s not to say that they’ve all been hits or even interesting.

More Publishers Working Together! Batman/Shadow Crossover Announced

By Dustin Cabeal

I was all about this until I read the creative team. No thanks. Just exhausted of everyone involved. That and unless this means that DC is buying Dynamite, I don't particularly care about crossover anymore... ever.
