Superman: Secret Origin #4
January 30th, 2010 | By Timothy Callahan
In what might by Gary Frank's best-looking Superman comic yet, we get new origin for the Parasite and more.
The Atom and Hawkman #46
January 28th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
"Blackest Night" has resurrected another title from the cancellation pile. This issue is about as close to "Blackest Night" #6 1/2 as we're going to get and it leads straight into February's "Blackest Night" #7.
Green Lantern #50
January 28th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie
Industry veteran Doug Mahnke fills the role of artistic clean-up batter, and "Green Lantern" #50 is his grand slam.
Blackest Night: The Flash #2
January 26th, 2010 | By Benjamin Birdie
Kollins' art is superb, Johns' story goes beyond the formula for a very good "Flash" tie-in to "Blackest Night."
Adventure Comics #6
January 18th, 2010 | By Greg McElhatton
Even as an oversized issue, "Adventure Comics" #6 feels a little rushed.
Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds
January 4th, 2010 | By Doug Zawisza
Any fan of the Legion of Super-Heroes, George Pérez, Geoff Johns, or even Superboy Prime (you may have problems if you fall into that category) will want to look into this book.
Blackest Night #6
December 30th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
"Blackest Night" breaks the silence of the "skip week" in full color brilliance as the Black Lanterns set their sights on Earth.
Blackest Night #6
December 30th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Blackest Night" #6 in some ways feels like a fan game come to life, but in a fun and entertaining way.
Green Lantern #49
December 26th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Ed Benes comes in as John Stewart goes all military on a bunch of Black Lanterns. Unfortunately, it's the worst issue of the series so far.
Adventure Comics #5
December 13th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
A good series goes off the rails here, as Superboy Prime invades the DC offices, literally.
Blackest Night: Flash #1
December 3rd, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
"Blackest Night: Flash" breaks out of the starting gate with a supersonic boom, delivering a plethora of characters, a myriad of settings, and a tightly-conceived tie-in to the main "Blackest Night" series.
Green Lantern #48
November 25th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Larfleeze and Atrocitus share a delicate moment, and Sinestro bears his feelings to Hal Jordan. This issue also contains a few other Lanterns and some promises made under duress.
Blackest Night #5
November 25th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Middle issues are often where things slow down, and while "Blackest Night" does that for a bit, it's already picking the pace back up for a good cliffhanger.
Flash: Rebirth #5
November 19th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
While the story's a bit slowly paced for a tale about the Flash, this issue reveals something hugely significant.
Adventure Comics #4
November 18th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
In what is surely to be the strangest "Blackest Night" tie-in, the joke is getting a little old.
Green Lantern #47
October 28th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
The main tie-in book to "Blackest Night" continues to entertain on multiple levels.
Blackest Night #4
October 28th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
A largely inconsequential issue unless you like boring speeches about being a hero and watching Barry Allen run around.
Adventure Comics #3
October 14th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
It's a shame Geoff Johns and Francis Manapul's run is almost over, because "Adventure Comics" is awfully fun right now.
Green Lantern #46
October 3rd, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
"Blackest Night" leads to some "Uneasy Alliances," indeed. And Mahnke's the right man to draw that type of thing.
Superman: Secret Origin #1
September 23rd, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Geoff Johns and Gary Frank offer a fresh new take on an old story. What's that? You've seen fresh new takes on Superman before? Well, this one is also a good read too.
Blackest Night #3
September 16th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Jason Rusch's girlfriend, Gehenna, shares with us, "This is totally creeping me out." Me too, Gen, me too. The third creepy issue of this creepy story is here to creep you out.
Green Lantern #45
September 2nd, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
"Blackest Night" sweeps across the galaxy in an issue of "Green Lantern" that doesn't feature Hal Jordan, yet is still chock full of action and excitement.
Superman: Secret Files 2009
August 16th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
"Codename: Patriot" has begun over in the Superbooks. This is a pricey way to get caught up to speed, but for the most part, it is very informative.
Blackest Night #2
August 13th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
Zombie fun -- well, violence -- and a breakneck pace make this a great summer event.
Adventure Comics #1
August 12th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Geoff Johns, Francis Manapul, and Clayton Henry successfully show that both Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes have a place in today's comic market.
Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds #5
July 23rd, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds" finally crosses the finish line, but it's easy to forgive with such a satisfying conclusion.
Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps #2
July 22nd, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
So I bought a comic with a Red Lantern, a Star Sapphire, and an Orange Lantern in it. No this isn't a joke. Why do you say that?
Blackest Night #1
July 16th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Is this comic excessive?Yes. But the excesses are epic and this creative team makes them worth reading about.
Blackest Night #1
July 15th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
n a week besieged with undead and creepiness, DC offers up their event of the summer. This review is relatively spoiler-free.
Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps #1
July 15th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps" tackles two familiar Lanterns and one new addition, but these origin stories don't quite spark enough interest.
Green Lantern #43
July 8th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Billed as a Prologue to "Blackest Night," this issue welcomes Doug Mahnke to the Green Lantern corner of the DC Universe, just in time for a world of creepiness.
Green Lantern #42
June 24th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
War is about to break out among the different colors of Lanterns. You'd almost think there was a big crossover storyline just around the bend. Oh, hang on...
Flash: Rebirth #3
June 11th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Geoff Johns's Flash sci-fi epic feels a bit out of step, but the ambition is impressive
The Flash: Rebirth #2
May 6th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"The Flash: Rebirth" is an all right comic, but it feels odd to be calling an issue of "The Flash" a little... slow.
Green Lantern #40
May 5th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
With the release of "Blackest Night" #0 for Free Comic Book Day, the War of Light is drawing nearer. This issue moves more pieces onto the virtual chessboard.
Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds #4
May 4th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Resurrections and revelations and, yup, this is classic DC superhero storytelling done well.
Blackest Night
May 4th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
You may have been able to get your hands on a copy of "Blackest Night" #0 as part of Free Comic Book Day at your local comic shop, but if it eluded you for some reason, try and find it. It's the best free comic you'll get in some time.
Justice Society of America #26
April 29th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Happy birthday, Stargirl! The end of an era happens here and it certainly makes for an enjoyable read.
Green Lantern #39
April 10th, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
Geoff Johns introduces the Orange Lanterns, and Phillip Tan reinvents himself as an artist.
Justice Society of America #25
April 5th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
A throwdown with the (Black) Adam's Family that looks great but suffers from a weak ending.
The Flash: Rebirth #1
April 1st, 2009 | By Benjamin Birdie
Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds #3
February 9th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
The spectacle many readers wanted in "Final Crisis" is in this comic, in all of its eye-popping detail.
Adventure Comics
February 6th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Otto Binder and Al Plastino's introduction of the Legion of Super-Heroes is still charming, although "Superman" readers might be more excited by the back-up feature.
Justice Society of America #23
February 1st, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Geoff Johns's final "Justice Society of America" story returns to Black Adam, with a slightly slow but promising first installment.
Green Lantern #37
January 25th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Red, Yellow, Green, and Blue Lanterns all collide with Sinestro as the prize, and it's hard to not see the upcoming "The Blackest Night" story on the horizon.
Action Comics #873
January 14th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"New Krypton" comes to a close, with an ending that is actually more interesting in what's to come, rather than what happens.
Justice Society of America #22
January 10th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
18 issues later, "Thy Kingdom Come" finally ends, but with a bit more whimper than bang.
Faces of Evil: Solomon Grundy #1
January 7th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Solomon Grundy, born on Monday. Printed in comic book form and released on Wednesday. This issue follows Grundy after "The Tornado's Path".
Green Lantern #36
January 4th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
"Rage of the Red Lanterns" continues as the War of Light is declared upon the universe in an issue jammed with Star Sapphires as well as Red, Blue, and Green Lanterns.
Action Comics #872
December 11th, 2008 | By Greg McElhatton
The "New Krypton" crossover continues to be entertaining, but it's also starting to feel like one too many new elements are being inserted into a story that's nearing its conclusion.
