Wasted Space #3
Molly Sue kicks a hornet's nest of galactic trouble. Legion doesn't care for bad manners. And an unexpected guest throws a monkey wrench into the thing Billy was calling a plan.
Detective Comics #1070
The gothic opera crashes into a crescendo as Batman goes head-to-head with an Azmer demon...unaware that it is is someone in Bruce Wayne's life. Meanwhile, a mysterious team called the Vigil arrives to investigate the Azmer sightings-but who are the Vigil, and are they on Batman's side? Then, in the backup: With Mrs. Freeze only a pale image of the...
I like the writing so far, and the character development is nice. Definitely getting me invested in our main three.
Wasted Space #2
Mayhem, cyborgs of destiny, and boozed out prophets. It's all here in Wasted Space, so strap in and hold on tight for the wildest sci-fi ride of 2018. Never has a more ragtag, unwilling group of heroes - "heroes" - been assembled, but if they don't pull their crap together, it might just spell the apocalypse.
This was a pretty decent start. Good set up and introduction to the main characters, just a hint of backstory, and enough plot teases to get me intrigued and eager to know what's going on. Writing was good, just one or two jokes that didn't land, but overall it was solid. I know Hayden Sherman is a terrific artist and that his stuff later in this series gets much better, so it doesn't really bothe more
Wasted Space #1
Billy Bane is a prophet who got it all wrong, and the galaxy has been burning ever since. All he wants is to waste away in the darkest corner of space with his best pal Dust, a supercharged Fuq bot. But when a new prophet comes calling, Billy is summoned to save the galaxy he's at least partially responsible for destroying. Too bad he couldn't care...
A hopeful but flawed ending. Hard not to be disappointed with how this series went downhill. I enjoyed the first half, but it just fizzled at the end.

SERIES FINALE!
"FIX THE WORLD," Conclusion: In the aftermath of war, how does Willa pick up the pieces? How does she deal with this very different status quo? And what the hell does Willa want to do with her life now that her world's completely changed?
Unfortunately this series just keeps on getting more and more stale and uninspired. The characters have grown completely one-dimensional and are near impossible to care about. Even the villains' motivations and actions make no sense. The story itself has gone nowhere as the whole final conflict that's been brewing since the 2nd arc was just resolved in less than 20 pages. It's a disappointing penu more

"FIX THE WORLD," Part Four: The battle for Chicago! The bug-riding Farmers have descended on the city, and it's all-out WAR. It's up to Willa and Edison to save their home! But if they're not enough... can the city itself rise to the challenge?
It's fine. It's all just...fine.

"FIX THE WORLD," Part Three: Chicago is in terrible danger, and Willa finds herself trapped and unable to help save her home. It's up to Edison to rally the city and try to protect it from the Farmers' Revolt. But will it be enough? Can Willa figure out how to get there in time?
The flashback was cool, but I don't know how they're going to wrap up this story in 3 more issues. I did like the little Majora's Mask reference though.

"FIX THE WORLD," Part Two
Still reeling from the last issue's shocking discovery, Willa learns what really happened on G-day. See that terrible day from a very different perspective as we follow an untold story of loss, struggle, and perseverance. ALSO: someone gets a dog.
I feel like the writing has been getting gradually worse and the story has been getting gradually less interesting...

NEW STORY ARC!
"FIX THE WORLD," Part One-Willa's in a race to save the world! Can she beat Barrow to the finish line and finally restore gravity to what it was? And what shocking surprise awaits her at the end that will rock her to her very core? This is where EVERYTHING CHANGES.
Solid piece of work. I loved Dr. Joy's analysis of Batman at the beginning. Guest artists were great.
Detective Comics #1069
Batman investigates the frozen Azmer that Mr. Freeze gave him, and makes a huge discovery about the ancient demons. Meanwhile, Azmer begin to pour into Gotham's streets, controlling helpless people and those poor souls the city cares not for...all to do the Orghams' bidding. Then, in the backup story, what kind of deal have the Orghams struck with ...
Another solid entry, as I've come to expect from this run. I actually think I kinda prefer the way Spurrier writes Two-Face over Ram V, but it was nice to have him back in focus and V did a good job continuing what Spurrier started. It wad also really nice have Rafael Albuquerque back as a guest artist, although for some reason I found both his and Reis' work in this issue was lesser than what the more
Detective Comics #1068
This special Two-Face issue is split in half artistically by maestros Rafael Albuquerque and Ivan Reis to portray the struggles Harvey Dent goes through trying to stay alive with the help of his more evil side... Genius writer Ram V not only devised each page of this story to be a dark reflection of the page facing it, but also of itself from front...
