Justice League: Generation Lost #21 review

Blue Beetle is dead, Max Lord has gotten away and the JLA members are licking their wounds. Booster Gold and Skeets are trying to work out how to get Jaime Reyes out of the Scarab suit before delivering his body to his family. Captain Atom is telling Ice that the thousands of recent deaths are […]

Wonder Woman #608 review

It’s looking bad for Diana as the Odyssey storyline resumes. The Amazons in their townhouse temple have been slaughtered, and the killers have her in their sights. After seeing off her remaining sisters, Artemis, Cheetah and Giganta pile on the Amazon princess. Mid-battle, the Oracles from the early part of J Michael Straczynski’s arc appear […]

All-New Batman: The Brave and the Bold #4 review

As a longtime Wonder Woman fan I should probably defend her against the accusation that she has a lousy Rogues’ Gallery. Sorry, no can do. Mouse Man, Firework Man, Amoeba Man, Paper Man, Egg Fu, Blue Snowman, Crimson Centipede … she’s certainly gone up against some no-hopers in her time. And while most of these […]

Annihilators #1 review

I hate this title. Seriously. I can’t spell it, I keep having to cut and paste the thing into the text. Also, like The Invaders, it doesn’t sound very superheroic. It’s a good read, though. Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning continue to guide us through Marvel’s Cosmic Corner following the cancellations of Nova and the […]

Avengers Academy #10 review

I’ve been wanting to see more lessons at Avengers Academy, and that’s what we get this month, with classes in Rudiments of Magic, Applied Chemistry, Extraterrestrial Culture, Anger Management and Superhuman Ethics. The guest teachers are Dr Strange and The Protector, though they’re only around for a panel or two. The real learning comes courtesy […]

Giant-Size Atom #1 review

And that has to be the best use of a ‘Giant-Size’ tag since the infamous ‘Giant-Size Man-Thing’. The Atom even gets to be a giant here, well, relatively, in one of several coups de science Ray Palmer comes up with as he battles evil boffins The Colony. Before he was so rudely interrupted, by being […]

Secret Six #31 review

The ‘get out of Hell free’ card from this series’ first arc takes centre stage in a new three-parter as the team descends into the Pit. It’s not a united unit, though, with one member staying behind, and the rest out to catch the associate who’s stolen that very useful pass. Let’s name names. Ragdoll […]
