The Question: All Along the Watchtower #5 review

Cyborg Superman and his merry band of bad guys and possessed heroes have taken over the JLU Watchtower. And he’s going to blow it to smithereens… just because. The countdown is on, the satellite will explode within the hour unless Question Renee Montoya can save the day. And to do that she must take down […]

The Question: All Along the Watchtower #4 review

The Question, Renee Montoya, was tasked with using her detective skills to find out who has been interfering with the Justice League Watchtower. And she’s cracked it! The Cyborg Superman has escaped from the Phantom Zone and used his ability to meld with machinery to bring the tech to life, surprising and incapicating most of […]

Alan Scott: Green Lantern #4 review

If this issue’s cover had a blurb it’d be ‘ALL-OUT EXPOSITION ISSUE’ because it’s flashback time for villain of the piece Red Lantern. He’s captured Green Lantern Alan Scott in our hero’s own apartment and is telling him that His Love Was a Lie. Yes, Alan’s long lost love is the Red Lantern, he’s not […]

Superman: Son of Kal-El #12 review

After returning a victim of mad scientist Henry Bendix, leader of nation state Gamorra, to his loved ones, Superman 2 Jon Kent answers an alarm from his mother.

Superman: Son of Kal-El #8 review

Last month, international bad guy Henry Bendix sent his pet super team to Metropolis after climate change woke a leviathan. Superman and Junior Aquaman Jackson Hyde had been handling things just fine, calming the beast, but Bendix’s Gamorra Corps were out to kill the creature. Enraged, it struck out, and Gamorran teen metahuman Spark died. […]

Superman: Son of Kal-El #7 review

Well, there’s a cover. New Superman Jon Kent protesting against climate change with a bunch of equally earnest kids, including boyfriend Jay. Actually, forget the ‘earnest’ bit, after his improved performance last time I’m back to trusting Jay not one bit. Oh, and there’s Aqualad… and is that a sea monster? Anyway, the cover reminds […]

Infinite Frontier #4 review

In the Hall of Heroes, things are getting weird with Captain Carrot and Machinehead. In the White House of Earth 23, President Superman and multiversal visitor Batman – the Thomas Wayne of another parallel – are getting to know one another. On Earth 0 – the regular DC Universe world – Director Bones of the […]

Justice League Dark #21 review

The Parliaments of Life are at war with one another. The Red, the Green, the Grey, the Divided and the Rot are vying to rule Earth. The Green is manifesting flowers in corpses but it’s the Rot which is announcing itself with the most sickening style, taking over hordes of humans in Los Angeles. Detective […]

Justice League Dark #1 review

Magic is broken. All over the world, practitioners are being consumed by their spells, their corpses left grotesque and filled with a strange energy. Wonder Woman, the Justice League member most familiar with enchantments, has been tasked with putting a team of specialists together. But even occasional Leaguer Zatanna, who gladly accepts Diana’s help when […]
