Supergirl #3 review

Crazy Kandor kid Lesla-Lar wants Supergirl’s life. She’s hypnotised Kara’s Earth parents and convinced the town of Midvale she’s the real deal. Kara’s regular costume having been vandalised by Lesla, she’s resorted to an older look and is doing good regardless. A little super-vision spying has Supergirl guessing where Lesla’s head is at, and she […]

Superman Treasury 2025: Hero For All #1 review

A giant robot attacking Metropolis isn’t an everyday occurrence, but it isn’t unique. Usually it’s a plot by Lex Luthor, or maybe Toyman, and once Superman has busted its butt and picked up whoever has the control box, that’s it. But not today. As he flies into space to follow the signal, Superman thinks about […]

DC’s Misfits of Magic review

Adoptive sister and brother Rikki and Ross are off to summer camp – but not one of the usual ones. Nope, the results of self-styled mystic detective Rikki’s investigations mean they’ve been enrolled in magic camp at the local library by their guardians, a bunch of mysterious monks. Running the show is camp counselor Zatanna, […]

JSA #9 review

Upholding the law? The Justice Society of America are pretty good at it. Upholstery? Not so much. Look at those backbreaking chairs? Checking in with the Injustice Society of America we find… … much comfier-looking seats. They’re perfect for listening to Green Lantern Alan Scott give away a big secret. ISA member Johnny Sorrow, disguised […]

New History of the DC Universe #1 review

In 1986, over two issues, Marv Wolfman, George Perez, Karl Kesel and Tom Ziuko told us the new history of the DC Universe. Readers had questions after the Crisis on Infinite Earths shmooshed together five parallel DC Earths. In 2025 we’re getting four issues and we’re not coming out of a Crisis event. We’re coming […]

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #40 review

I’m just an old-fashioned boy and I love an old-fashioned superhero romp. And that’s just what we get in the latest between-big-storylines issue of World’s Finest. Gotham Police Commissioner Jim Gordon is in Metropolis for a chat show appearance, and he’s nervous. But help is at hand. There to support his friend, Bruce Wayne’s attention […]

Superman Unlimited #2 review

What’s the definition of unconvincing? Journalists Lois Lane and Ron Troupe find out as the President of the country of El Caldero explains that he doesn’t want an official Daily Planet globe, as doled out to members of its new affiliates programme. And when the President’s punny personal guard, the Krypto-Knights, refer to him as […]

Krypto: The Last Dog of Krypton #1 review

This review could be boiled down to one word – Awwwww. I’ve always been a fan of the Dog of Steel. Well, the real one anyway, not the post-Crisis lizard thing or the grumpy Super-Marmaduke. There’s only one Krypto, and he’s a small fella of indeterminate breed. And that’s official! Published to coincide with Krypto’s […]

New Champions #6 review

The latest teen superheroes of the Marvel Universe are in trouble. They’ve gathered as the New Champions and been getting to know one another, but the nearest thing they have to a leader, Liberty, has vanished, spirited away by supposed ally Monte, and the young heroes haven’t been able to find her. Luckily one of […]
