(00:24:57) Plus our Honorable Mentions covered each week by Josh! Here’s the run down –
MultiVersus: Collision Detected #3 – “Rated by Dash” – 4/5. This issue is just crazy but it is good and I love the pictures.
Jenny Sparks #3 – 4/10 – Evil Captain Atom kills the enti8re Justice League team. But also didn’t. Or maybe he did? And Jenny smokes. Such. Great. Writing. All points given for the art.
Batman: Full Moon #1 – 7.5/10 – An interesting story. Batman’s no stranger to horror stories, but this one feels written a little different. I enjoy it, and Subic’s art. However, Subic… stop signing interior pages. You look incredibly full of yourself when you do that. It’s in the credits. That’s the only place it needs to be.
Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter #4 – 8/10 – I really hope that DKOS continues after this, like a White Knight kind of universe. Please. So fun to read, such great stories. Such good art.
Batman and Robin: Year One #1 – 8.25/10 – This is a great year one story without it being an origin story. It’s not campy or with cheesy dialog. I’s written well; the art works awesome. It’s a great time.
The Strange Case of Harleen and Harley – 9/10 – This was awesome. Really. Like an origin story for the development of the Harley Quinn side of Harleen Quinzel. And Poison Ivy. It was done really well and the art works great for it too. It’s not a kid’s book, unless kids should read the F bomb, which does show up once along with some other profanity later in the book. So… if this was a movie, it would be rated PG 13.
This Is Our Land – A Blue Beetle Story – 9.5/10 – A VERY rare 9.5 from me because of how absolutely amazing this book is. There’s really not another way to describe it. It’s relevant, has real meaning, is impactful and it gives a cool bit of an origin story. And it’s written so damn well that I couldn’t peel my eyes off of it, and may even go back and read it again. Unbelievably good. I couldn’t recommend it more.
Harley Quinn in Paradise #1 – 7.75/10 - It’s a silly webcomic about Harley shortly after breaking up with the Joker. She’s pissed off a lot of criminals and Poison Ivy warns her to hide… so her idea to make everyone love her while staying safe is … get cast on a reality show looking for true love. Ooohhhh boy. This should be something. The art is good, and I like Harley’s new look at the end of the issue.
Nothing Butt Nightwing #1 – 7/10 – A webcomic about Nightwing going undercover as a model while dealing with… being dumped by Babs. For a webcomic, this was actually not too bad. I’ve seen far worse. It was enjoyable for what it was… but… if an issue is centered around Dick Grayson’s butt, only Nicola Scott should be asked to draw it. Art wasn’t bad though.
