C.V.R. The Bard's Profile

Hats off to Quinones for capturing the absolutely grotesque facial features of Michael Keaton. I know that Burton is always into things that would make an audience vomit, and while watching his Batman films I can wholeheartedly attest that Keaton did not obtain his role because of any "good" looks.

Skybound X is the top anthology on the shelves right now overflooded with bloody black & white stories.
I've skipped over The Walking Dead for years because of the hype and high issue count never made the franchise inviting. The Rick Grimes 2000 tale that bookends here is more than I could have asked for in my first trip into The Walking Dead.

High paced action and my favorite person to ever wear a Spider this side of Eddie Brock, Black Widow No.9 is featuring a Widow story that is just getting better and better.
I am glad I stuck with the series, because the Arcade storyline dragged , and it seems as if the farther Natasha gets away from her family life the better the story gets.

Morrison didn't retire. Morrison didn't retire! MORRISON DIDN'T RETIRE! Those were my initial thoughts when I picked up "Superman And The Authority". Happy that one of my favorite scribes and teachers was not going to hang his hat on a series about my least favorite (and most overrated) Green Lantern's. It appears that authors in all mediums have a tendency to pull the ol' bait and switch to get c Morrison didn't retire. Morrison didn't retire! MORRISON DIDN'T RETIRE!

Barabarella busts out in an era where being a sex worker is more socially acceptable than ever before; dropping right on the heels when a clown like Meagan Thee Stallion covers a rag like S.I. It's only fitting.
The thing is, despite Barbarella's laughable, Enchantress - esque powers, there is deep storytelling here that throws everything that previous Barabarella know into flux - capturing Barabarella busts out in an era where being a sex worker is more socially acceptable than ever before; dropping right on the heels when a clown like Meagan Thee Stallion covers a rag like S.I.

I would give a lot for Bennet to draw She-Hulk 24/7. I love the way that Ewing writes her too and doesn't make her Savage side look stupid , as opposed to Aaron's writing on the current Avengers.
That's all the comparisons I'm going to speak on for this review, because Immortal Hulk will win against any other title currently on stands if I continued to do that.

The latest issue of Secret Files just could not dissapoint. What to expect from anything featuring Psycho Pirate? Here is a good reason why this character has survived every generation of the DCU.

Black Hammer Reborn No.1 is Lemire doing what he was born to do : telling goddamn stories about unknown characters that an avid comic book reader can only grow to love.
I come off of falling in love with Sweet Tooth two years ago at a Kansas Public Library.

In a week where I played catch up due to just hopping out on "time-served", "Static" was a title that I was looking forward to, though not at the forefront of the Milestone relaunch. Though it's placement is understandable , as Static is arguably the most recognizable character from Dakotaverse , all that I had feared was present in this first issue, namely the overwhelming sense of teen melodram In a week where I played catch up due to just hopping out on "time-served", "Static" was a title that I was looking forward to, though not at the forefront of the Milestone relaunch.

What with getting locked up over a little misdemeanor and then getting things together for my new place out in the 313, I've been sleeping on a lot of the books that have been coming out over the past two weeks.
Luckily, I was able to feast my eyes on Hickman's latest, via X-Men number 21.

Gorgeously drawn & well-written. Jones is able to tell a backstory & drum up excitement for the future without dragging in any point of her pilot.
Nubia makes a token appearance, as well as a queen who appears to have usurped Artemis' thrown. That's all great, but I still want to see more of Nubia in the DCU than these little cameos. Since she took over as Queen of the Amazons, I still ask D Gorgeously drawn & well-written.

These composite Batmen really make me think they are the real deal with the way Kubert is drawing this.
Kubert stays showing off his chops here, while the story from Taylor feels a little heavy on backstory. Hopefully the buildup is over so next issue we can get into the meat & potatoes.

Hulk got fused with Bizarro - two of my comic book favorites - just to get stamped out by the worst iteration of Hyperion. And I thought Spider-Man got done dirty ...
The lack of the MAX Squadron Supreme is going to stay as my biggest gripe against this story. I might try to ignore it.

Shiva's story was heartbreaking. But letting go of those you love is the universal language of life.
Skipped the rest but Red Hood. Great to see the best version of The Dynamic Duo back in action. I am a sucker for this shit.

An interrogation? The only thing I liked was the callbacks to the mask becoming the wearer's face.
I'm done man. And Rorschach is one of my favorite comic book characters. This wacky story is losing it's legs.
Anybody but Tom King should have handled this.
This book should have went straight to GN - maybe that would have saved it from being a blemish to Watchmen's legacy.

I wish Peter would have killed J. Jonah. Oh well,he'll be wishing the same thing next issue.
This is great. I love seeing Spider-Man cut loose and with the symbiote that never forgot him.
I always loved What If? stories, and this as a limited with Zdarsky on it - the master of pulling superhero's into depressive states - is the perfect intro to something I want to see more of.

Just read the Red Hood joint, because my favorite Robin was the draw to cracking open another dreaded Future State book.
It was not that bad. I'll check out the next one. Need to replace the penciler though, I hate how he makes Ravager look like a disproportionate toothpick.

Lovee some of the shorts here that I read and the exposure to characters that just get overlooked.
Kong should be replacing Jon for the next Superman role, and finding out so much of Green Arrow'd extended family - I smell a new Arrow team complete with a new Speedy.
And as for that last tale, Nubia looked perfect completing the Trinity. DC what's the hold up? Bendis would write her we Lovee some of the shorts here that I read and the exposure to characters that just get overlooked.
