I've always liked Buddy Baker and his family, but since the debut of the New 52, Animal Man has become one of my favorite books to read each month. While there was a crossover with Swamp Thing several months back, this title reminds me of the days when a strong monthly comic was enough to grab our attention! I wish more books were as consistently enjoyable as Animal Man! Can't wait for next month!

Batman's flying high right now, and that's such a pleasure for a long-time Bat-fan like me. I was sorry to see Arkham Manor bite the big one, but there are so many other excellent Bat-titles out there now that it's lessening my pain.

Sometimes annuals don't measure up to the monthly title, but this one is a perfect companion. Having three villains appear ups the ante in the book, and the mystery surrounding what's going will help the Dark Knight's mystique grow in Gotham's criminal underworld since I just KNOW one of them will blab about it anyway! While it's a great read at any time, I would highly recommend returning to this annual on Halloween when it will be a perfect way to celebrate that holiday!

Hurwitz has done an exceptional job of playing the dark tone of Batman stories off genuinely funny sequences.

I mean, NOBODY lives life without ANY humor at all, even the Dark Knight of Gotham City.

This was a good celebration of 900 issues of Detective Comics! Of course, it would have been nice to see that numbering restored, but I'm okay with this kind of recognition. It literally drives me batty to see a comic go on for 10-20 issues, then get renumbered when a company thinks they can sell more copies by leaping back to the numbering they just left a few months back!

However, you can now pick up the trade collection for the early stores at local comics shops if you prefer a paper copy. I highly recommend this book! It's what I think good comics should be!

Since this comic has more to do with everyday life than superheroics, it's good that the art team is using a simpler, more relaxed style than many superhero books that focus on trying to make the fights pop off the page.

I often complain about how poorly supernatural events in comics are handled. When the writer has painted himself or herself into a corner, the (in)famous "Woo-Woo Ray" appears, something that we've never had any indication of seeing suddenly appears and resolves the situation. Nelson and company NEVER do that, thankfully. The characters shine, the scripting is powerful and the art is eye-popping. What else could you want from a comic?

Whether you've read Magnus before or not, it doesn't take more than a few pages in before you understand him very well, and I need that! Not only am I going to be there for Magnus, I'm enjoying other Gold Key books that come my way. Kudos to Dynamite and these creators for grabbing me by the short and curlies and not letting go until I read these comics!

Of course, there are several nods to DC's regular books along the way, like one kid who is wearing a t-shirt with Batman's logo on it. I'm sure that, if we got the chance, we'd see tales like this more often if they sell well, so I'm hoping this will be the first in a series of books featuring these teens and families. They were fun to read about!

The Infected: King Shazam #1 |
Nov 10, 2019
show
|
|
One of the best ways to get to know a character is to see his "dark side," as it were. You know, explore the things the "real" person would NEVER do. And that's what this comic is all about"what Billy Batson or Shazam! wouldn't even consider saying or making happen.

The Owl #2
August 8, 2013
|
|
The Owl is a mini-series of only four issues, so those of us interested in it should be buying it as much as possible so we can get more! It's a unique take on costumed crime fighters, so it gets 5 out of 5 stars from me!

The Owl #4
October 10, 2013
|
|
I loved this update for a classic hero. I would beg Dynamite to make more because I'm sure Mr. Krul and company have other stories that many of us would like to dive into.

The Silencer Annual #1 |
Aug 31, 2018
show
|
|
It's a series that has one foot in the main DCU and one in the "real" world, and its sympathetic view of Honor and her family is something I particularly enjoy.

I do love me a team-up, and giving these "big guns" and "new guns" a chance to work together with hints of what's to come in Rebirth made this an annual worth picking up. Recommended!

Titans: Titans Together #2 |

It's always great to see the Titans in action (especially using this name instead of Teen Titans). I particularly enjoy seeing this version of Nightwing instead of the brain-changed one in his current comic.

ProsSets up the "Trinity War" involving all three Justice Leagues.Updates the Pandora legend for the New 52.ConsSometimes the story is told out of sequence, which can be confusing.Pandora's Box is radically changed from previous tales involving it.

Under the Flesh #1 |
Jul 30, 2014
show
|
|
When there's a popular trend going on, it's easy to just grab hold and ride that train until it runs out of steam. However, Under the Flesh thankfully doesn't do anything the easy way. It's full of engaging characters, thrills, twists and turns, making it one of the very best zombie titles I've read! I'm really looking forward to the second issue, expecting this high level of quality to be maintained as we go deeper into the UTF universe!You can get a copy of the book atundertheflesh.comor via their Facebook group at this link:facebook.com/undertheflesh.comic.You can also listen to my interview with Mr. Deltres during a recent episode of my Wayne's Comics Podcast at this link:http://majorspoilers.com/podcasts-show/waynes-comics-podcast/.

Action and adventure stories always are ones I'm anxious to read. White Widow is off to a great start, and I expect its popularity to increase as the tale unfolds.

What would it be like if we had to deal with mythological gods and demi-gods in our current world? Well, the current folks on Wonder Woman are focusing on just such an idea. And it's not pretty.

Year of the Villain: Hell Arisen #2 |
Jan 28, 2020
show
|
|
This twist on the normal "good guys versus bad guys" average comics format really has me guessing and concerned. Normally, events like this clean up nicely and neatly, but I can't see how that will happen in the Year of the Villain. DC has upped the ante here quite substantially.

One excellent comic book stands out above the rest when it comes to showing us history and all it involves, and that's Yi Soon Shin. The first in the latest series is coming, and it's amazing!
