Patrick Daniel Comic Reviews

All in all, Absolute Superman #10 is a great book. Solid work by writer and artists. I do enjoy the combination of a classic Batman villain with the Omega Men and Boom Tube technology. And a great cliffhanger that has me ready for next month's issue.

The Immortal Legend Batman is the Sci-Fi/Western/Fantasy you didn't know you wanted. It's a bold combination of genres that opens up a new world with much to explore. The shadow realm looks to be the most interesting and I hope we see more of it soon.

The Unchosen #1 poses many questions about its world and its charactersperhaps too many questions. There's nothing wrong with posing questions for the reader, but providing a few answers as well is helpful. A writer should give the reader a few bread crumbs to sate their hunger, yet still keep them hungry for more. If a reader is left with nothing but a hunger, they may look to find food elsewhere. It is a curious beginning to a new world and story.

The Unchosen #2 gives us some much needed backstory to Aida's world and the Word. The questions raised are getting some answers. Some beautiful art and coloring help carry us through the slow burn of Aida's story.

Absolute Wonder Woman #11 is slower issue here gives us some quality time with Diana. Another great flashback gives us some nice character moments of Diana being "the best of all of us. This issue sets us up nicely for the story's conclusion next issue.

Justice League Unlimited #9 is a great epilogue for the "We Are Yesterday storyline. It still has a nice bit of action, drama, and good character moments. The world and the multiverse are again safe to continue more great adventures in the next issue.
