What is this all about? Here we have our first Red Hood and the Outlaws Annual. I think of annuals as filler stories to hold readers over, to some degree, that’s basically what they are. Sometimes they’re good, and sometimes they miss the mark. This was a fairly light week for DC so naturally, it’s…
What is this all about? This story illuminates Alfred’s past involvement with the “Nemesis” program and it’s leader Briar. Batman is loyal to his code, brave, as always, and vulnerable.

“Heart of the Amazon” beats on in this, the fourth part of the story. For the most part this arc has only gotten better with each issue and even though writer Shea Fontana had the unenviable task of following a beloved Wonder Woman series by Greg Rucka, she has had fun with the character. Fontana…
What is this all about? (Spoilers ahead!) History tells us that on Black Thursday, October 24th, 1929, the stock market crash caused several stockbrokers to take their own lives, unwilling to take responsibility for their failures.

Story so far Fall of the Gods Part 2. We pick up where we left off in Space Sector 1418, on the planet Slyggia. After seeing Orion boom tube into the last issue only to get jacked by omega beams, Hal and Kyle rush him to a nearby planet to administer emergency treatment. Little do…
As a central Texas dweller, I would probably be driven outta the region if I didn’t read the writing of fellow Texan Donny Cates. Admittedly, I was late to the party, but God Country is one of my favorite titles of 2017 and I nearly missed it! I couldn’t let Redneck slip past me like…
What is this all about? It’s a bloody good time in the newest issue of Harley Quinn. In the previous issue, we see the Unconquerable 25 get fired to take out Harley Quinn. The team ends up ambushing a little shindig Quinn put together, and she doesn’t take the interruption well. This issue picks up…
