Teen Titans: Beast World #6 review

After a couple of months of comics in which a plague of Starro spores have been proving a massive threat to everyone on Earth, the Titans save the day with surprising ease. Nightwing has an idea to undermine Amanda Waller’s plan to kill a million humans who have been transformed into beasts – cure them […]

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest 2024 Annual review

I’ve been looking forward to this one since it was announced – a bunch of World’s Finest-adjacent characters in their own stories. First we have Mr Mxyzptlk, Bat-Mite and their Just-Us League of Imps meeting at the Fifth Dimensional Hall of Just-Us. Mxy has an agenda to discuss but no one is listening. I just […]

The Flash #5 review

Jai West is having a bad day. He’s had a fair few lately, his Speed Force connection to his father sending uncomfortable vibes his way. And he’s started manifesting a little man from his body. Then someone full-sized appears by Jai’s side. Meet Inspector Pilgrim. The mushroom-topped mystery man gives Jai the lowdown on his […]

Titans: Beast World #5 review

A million beast men are raging across the world. The Titans want to save them. Amanda Waller, who finally steps out the shadows and onto global TV screens, has other ideas. Among the viewers are the Titans, minus Beast Boy, seemingly killed by human black hole Chunk – tossed at him by Waller, who claims […]

Titans #7 review

Well, I’ve given up trying to keep track of the Beast World storyline running through Titans, Titans: Beast World and various specials. There are editorial notes aplenty telling us such and such happens before or after such and such, but the comics come out so frequently that I simply shrug and give thanks I’m not […]

Superman #10 review

Yee-haw! Or maybe Yee-FWOAR! Who knew Superman would suit cowboy cosplay so well? Our hero is as smokin’ as the barrel of a Colt 45 on Jamal Campbell’s instant classic cover. And that’s a brilliant tagline, too! But can the interiors live up to this image? Yes they can. Writer Joshua Williamson and artists Bruno […]

Jay Garrick: The Flash #4 review

STAR Labs has been a part of DC Comics lore for a long time. I remember its introduction way back in the Seventies’ Superman #246 as a Metropolis scientific research facility. Over the years we learned there were branches all over the globe, and while it’s usually been a friendly place, occasionally dark science has […]

Ultimate Spider-Man #1 review

Peter Parker has a pretty good life Certainly the recent loss of his Aunt May in terror attack was a blow, but he does have… … Uncle Ben? At home, he’s loved by wife Mary Jane and kids Richard and May. At work, the Daily Bugle Old Guard is being forced out. Dark days are […]

Titans: Beast World #4 review

The world is being overrun by crazed animal people, transformed by little Starros made from a super-sized Beast Boy. The heroes are doing what they can, and so are the villains. Well, some of them, anyway. It’s Giganta, longtime enemy of Wonder Woman and occasional girlfriend of all-new Atom Ryan Choi. Ryan’s not in this […]

Action Comics #1061 review

Bizarro is back. But he’s not the simple reverse Superman he’s always been. He has a new tool in his kit. Magic. One of the few weapons Superman has no defence against. The artificial being tells Superman how, six weeks previously, he found himself on Zerox, the Sorcerers’ World. Reacting to Bizarro’s attack on guards […]
