Justice Society of America #52 review

The action is on two fronts as Mr Terrific learns who’s behind his incredible shrinking intellect, while the rest of the JSA bring in specialists to discover what’s beyond the secret door under Monument Point. The news is bad for Terrific as he learns that the stranger who nobbled his noggin is dead, a suicide. […]

JSA: All-Stars #17 review

It’s a quiet day at the All-Stars ranch when a gaudily garbed stranger appears among them, claiming to be a member. What’s more, The Prince announces to Judomaster that she’s his wife – or was, before reality changed. The Prince is, he says, the son of Regent, the world’s greatest hero, who once led the […]

Justice Society of America #49 review

It’s been a long few months, waiting for the story that went with this cover. When it was solicited by DC I could barely type for laughing.

Oh. My. Lord.

I’ve been a vocal supporter of the new JSA run by Mark Guggenheim and Scott Kolins, but I really do have to point at the upcoming cover for for March’s issue #49 and jeer a little. Alan Scott takes his Green Lantern title too literally. The man looks like a flying coal scuttle …

Justice Society of America #45 review

Is there any buzz about this book yet? Because there should be. The new creative team of Mark Guggenheim and Scott Kolins came on board last issue and immediately changed the feel of the title. Out went the endless hero vs villain crowd scenes, in came a tighter team, allowing for more satisfying action and […]

Justice Society of America 80-Page Giant #1 – anyone know a good shrink?

Some weeks there’s just not the time to review every comic I’d like to. Especially when they’re giant-sized issues (which barely anyone buys – seriously, you should see my stats when I try to give a multi-story special its due. Pitiful). Still, I’d not sleep if I didn’t at least try to bring a little story […]
