Justice League: Dark Tomorrow Special #1 review

It’s been a busy week, I’ve only just got to my second comic, Justice League: Dark Tomorrow Special #1, and this is how it begins. How does ‘Now’ work in the context of a non-place in between time periods? Happily, things quickly improve, with a cracking double-page spread of DC time cop Waverider being chased […]

The Question: All Along the Watchtower #6 review

It’s the final face-off between the Question and the Cyborg Superman. As the last issue of this mini-series opens the latter, Hank Henshaw, wants to destroy the Justice League Unlimited Watchtower, while the former, Renee Montoya, just wants to stay alive. Expelled into space, she’s saved when Blue Beetle Ted Kord – supposedly under the […]

Green Lantern #22 review

Look at writer Jeremy Adams breaking the rules. First of all we have the big confrontation with classic Green Lantern annoyance Hector Hammond… … ending five pages into the issue. Then we have the return of a long-gone superhero with not a hint of it on the cover. You know, Dan Garrett, the first… Oi! […]

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 […]

Challengers of the Unknown #3 review

The Challengers of the Unknown have been invited to be part of the new Justice League Unlimited. They’re smart, skilled and massively experienced in investigating the weird. Well, anomalies have been popping up all over universe, individual members of the core team have been teaming with Leaguers to investigate, disturbing things have been occurring that […]

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 […]

Green Lantern #19 review

One of my favourite things in superhero comics is the Day in the Life issue, and that’s exactly what we have here – Hal Jordan and friends hanging out as they prepare for their next big battle. First, we check in with Star Sapphire Carol Ferris, loving her new membership in Justice League Unlimited, even […]

Green Lantern: Fractured Spectrum #1 review

Peace has broken out in the DC Universe. Well, the outer space bit that concerns the Green Lantern Corps, anyway. The war with the forces of rogue United Planets President Thaaros had been won, the world of Oa is being rebuilt and there’s time for Hal Jordan to enjoy a sandwich. Now there’s a thought […]

Challengers of the Unknown #1 review

I love the Challengers of the Unknown, those adventurers who live ‘on borrowed time’. It’s been a while since they’ve had a book, so this mini-series went straight onto my Must Buy list. They’ve had a few minis over the last few decades but never earned an ongoing, so here DC Editorial pushes the nuclear […]

The Question: All Along the Watchtower #1 review

Who watches the supermen? Renee Montoya, the cop turned Question. Life in Gotham City having gone to hell (again!), she’s accepted Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman’s offer to be marshal of the new Justice League Watchtower, hangout for every one of Earth’s heroes. She certainly looks the part. There’s a specific mission attached to the […]
