Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Tom Reilly | Colourist: Jordie Bellaire | Letterer: Rus Wooton | Published by Skybound If the last issue was all about tightening the screws, G.I. Joe #17 is where the whole thing finally blows wide open. Part Five of The Dreadnok War kicks off with zero buildup, throwing […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Tom Reilly | Colourist: Jordie Bellaire | Letterer: Rus Wooton | Published by Skybound G.I. Joe #16 brings the Dreadnok War to a boiling point, delivering the kind of chaotic, character-driven carnage this arc has been promising since the opening chapter. If parts one through three were about […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Tom Reilly | Colourist: Jordie Bellaire | Letterer: Rus Wooton | Published by Skybound Skybound’s G.I. Joe line keeps proving that when it leans into pulp grit and character tension, it fires on all cylinders. Issue 15, the third chapter of the Dreadnok War arc, slows the breakneck […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Tom Reilly | Colourist: Jordie Bellaire | Letterer: Rus Wooton | Published by Skybound Skybound’s relaunch of G.I. Joe continues to impress, with issue 14 delivering a pulse-pounding continuation of the Dreadnok War storyline. This chapter doesn’t ease into the action. It thrusts readers into a high-speed desert […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Tom Reilly | Colourist: Jordie Bellaire | Letterer: Rus Wooton | Published by Skybound Skybound’s G.I. Joe run has been consistently strong, but Dreadnok War looks set to be the book’s first truly wild, unpredictable event—and issue #13 kicks it off with exactly the kind of pace and […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Various | Published by DC Comics So here we are, the rather arbitrarily chosen issue number seven, the final part of the mini-series we were told would shatter everything we knew about previously shattered universes and multiverses. Overall it’s been consistently decent, but has lacked that certain something […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Daniel Sampere | Published by DC Comics We are now approaching the endgame, and the stakes are as high as they will be. The entire Multiverse is at stake, and we are now in very familiar Crisis territory. The cover is superb, really evoking those mid-80s days when […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Daniel Sampere | Published by DC Comics The Multiverse is, it seems, dying. DC seem to be ripping up all of the Dan Didio restructuring of the DC Multiverse and returning things to closer to how they were pre-New 52, pre- Final Crisis, Pre- every Crisis. Joshua Williamson […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Daniel Sampere | Published by DC Comics And there you have it. DC had been pushing this event more than most, promising that it would be of huge significance going forward. Well, we’ve heard that quite a few times of late, so it’s fair to say that the […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Daniel Sampere, Daniel Henriques, Danny Miki | Published by DC Comics The best way to describe this book is the comic book equivalent of a summer popcorn action movie. Doesn’t lend itself to a whole lot of navel gazing analysis, but there are a lot of explosions, action […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Daniel Sampere | Published by DC Comics I enjoyed the first issue of this book but did say in my review of that one that it was very much the introduction issue, so story took second place to establishing all the pieces on the board. It was still […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Daniel Sampere | Published by DC Comics Will there ever come a time when DC will retire the ‘Crisis’ label for whatever universe-shattering, er, crisis is just around the corner? I doubt it. I guess it’s the comic book equivalent of a movie franchise in some ways. Let’s […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Rafa Sandoval, Jordi Taragona | Published by DC Comics From the cover alone I could tell that subtlety isn’t going to be a word associated with this book. The cover positively screams in your face. Death, destruction, anarchy, as a whole bunch of DC A-lister’s scream in pain. […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Viktor Bogdanovic, Daniel Henriques | Published by DC Comics I think the days of ongoing monthly books are numbered, judging by just how many monthly books these days from Marvel and DC are one-shots, limited series, or big event books. That’s not necessarily a criticism, because a good […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Xermanico | Published by DC Comics So, incredible as it may seem now, there was a time when Multiverse was a dirty word. Back in the early 1980’s DC decided that having multiple versions of their characters was just too confusing for potential new readers, and so essentially […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Gleb Melnikov | Published by DC Comics When it comes to the character of Robin, I’ve always been ready to be annoyed whenever a new kid takes over. When Dick Grayson became Nightwing so Jason Todd could become Robin, I was a bit irritated. When Jason died (though […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Howard Porter | Published by DC Comics So, after 100 issues, Joshua Williamson is hanging up his bright yellow Flash boots. He first took over the book four years ago, and has since then put together one of the outstanding run’s in Barry Allen’s history. He’s in some […]
Written by Joshua Williamson | Art by Rafa Sandoval, Jordi Tarragona | Published by DC Comics Slightly under the radar Joshua Williamson has been putting together a mighty fine run on The Flash. I don’t know what it is about The Flash as a book, but down the years it has had some great runs […]
Written by Various | Art by Various | Published by DC Comics I seem to be reviewing a whole lot of 80 Page Giants of late, most of which have been appearing from DC. That’s not a complaint mind you. I’m still an avid collector of the DC Dollar Comics issues from the late 1970’s […]
Recently DC announced that Tom King would be leaving the main Batman title at the end of the year and continuing his story in the Batman & Catwoman book. No matter your thoughts on that news the biggest question now is who takes up the reigns as the new Batman writer? It is a big […]
