I’ve been reviewing most of every GENERATIONS issue Marvel‘s put out, and each one was supposed to be building to this massive event known mostly as… LEGACY. Now, I think it’s fair to point out that all but ONE issue of the GENERATIONS that I read– well, they pretty much sucked. They lacked direction, and made it feel like Marvel still … Read more
As Joe Pesci’s character, Leo Getz, said in the iconic franchise Lethal Weapon, “Okay, okay, okay,” I know these SAGA reviews feel a bit repetitive. They might even seem a little like I’m just copying, pasting and editing the issue “#” to the current, but I swear I’m not. SAGA is just truly this good. It’s probably the strongest overall … Read more
I know, I know, I know, but it’s that time of the month again where I hit you with the absolute truth– GREEN ARROW yet again delivers one of the best issues of the month. Sadly, this issue is the grand finale to the “Hard-Traveling Hero” arc, which if you ask me– and well, you technically are, … Read more
This marks my third GENERATIONS issue that I’ve read, and it continues the trends of its predecessors quite well– eh, I guess well is the right word, but not giving accurate meaning. This issue highlights the problems I’ve had with GENERATIONS: IRON MAN AND IRONHEART #1 and GENERATIONS: CAPTAIN MARVEL AND CAPTAIN MARVELL #1 in spades. … Read more
Roughly a week ago– eh, more or less, and honestly it’s more than less, I had reviewed the GENERATIONS: IRONHEART AND IRON MAN issue and if you recall, I still wasn’t at all satisfied with the direction Marvel is headed with LEGACY. Though, I did still have hope that the rest of these GENERATIONS one-shots, or whatever they really are, … Read more
I was pleasantly surprised with how much I loved this issue of HAL JORDAN AND THE GREEN LANTERN CORPS, as it really struck a chord with me. I’ve always been beyond fascinated with the relationship between Hal and his father [Martin,] and how it plays into Hal’s character. Seeing Robert Venditti (writer) use that to bend … Read more
I’ve been pacing a hole in my floor waiting for this issue of DARK NIGHTS: METAL since the ending of the first. Having the dream team of Scott Snyder (writer) and Greg Capullo (artist) back together has never felt so good, and this issue reminds me of why their BATMAN run was so damn good. Reading this … Read more
I’ve been building to this moment for what’s felt like a millennia– well, actually just a little over a year when Jeremy Haun (co-creator) first teased THE REALM, but you get my over-exaggerated point. I do have to admit, though, that I was starting to get a [tad] bit worried that I might have hyped it … Read more
If you recall, in my review for ELSEWHERE #1 (just click and read if you haven’t already) I wasn’t exactly blown away by it overall, but I was willing to give the next issue a read. I wanted more DB Cooper, more delving into what makes this world so “fantastic,” and some answers as to how Amelia … Read more
After the massive success of WONDER WOMAN it’s now a done deal, as it’s being reported by Variety that Patty Jenkins (director) has signed the dotted line to direct the DCEU’s critically acclaimed hit’s sequel. WONDER WOMAN has made $813-million worldwide, and is still in theaters. With such great success it’s as of no surprise … Read more
