It’s DC revamp time! Again

So, what do you reckon to the news from DC this week? The New 52 is long gone, DC Rebirth is so 2016, and as for all those mini line refreshes… well, did anyone ever have a handle on what exactly Dawn of DC was? So, coming up in October we have DC All In, […]

Superman #13 review

House of Brainiac continues, with most of the Super Family bottled by Brainiac and dragged into outer space. The conqueror from Colu sicced the last citizens of the planet Czarnia on Metropolis, along with his droid warriors, and the hit and run caught the heroes off guard. Superman, though, has an idea as to who […]

Oh, now this is great! Not enough review for you? OK, a few details. It’s Saturday in Metropolis, Lois is having a rare day off and she has yoga on her mind. Yep, Superman is on patrol but soon he’s on the scene as Clark, the epitome of Hot Dork. He’s ready to show off […]

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 […]

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #12 review

Supergirl and Robin go on a date. There a monkey on the loose. That’s all it takes to spark one of the best DC comics we’ll get this year. Writer Mark Waid is a master when it come to depicting superheroes with personality, building off classic characterisations and adding insights that, while logical, haven’t been […]

Action Comics #1047 review

Comics today aren’t cheap, but if Action Comics #1047 had consisted of just one particular page, I’d still have left the issue smiling. Superman saves a family from plunging into Metropolis Bay after he ends a pretty unusual car chase. Adorable. But we are blessed, because there are more terrific scenes to enjoy in the […]
