Review: The Movement #1

Review: The Movement #1

Now that DC is done with the “wave release” format (finally), we have books starting to come out when they are good and ready.  The first of these is The Movement, which shows DC is ready to take chances on books again. Gail Simone uses the Occupy Wall Street movement as inspiration for the Movement [...]

Review: Action Comics #19

Review: Action Comics #19

After Andy Diggle left Action Comic, where he only wrote one issue, everyone was talking about this book. But was Diggle’s issue any good? It was Superman’s best outing in a post 52 world. Action Comic #19 is full of reasons why readers love Superman.  Unlike Grant Morrison’s run, and whatever has been going on [...]

Superman Unbound: Roundtable Interview with Matt Bomer

Superman Unbound: Roundtable Interview with Matt Bomer

I had the great pleasure of being in a round table interview at WonderCon with Matt Bomer, the voice of Superman and Clark Kent in Superman Unbound, this past weekend. Now as I simply went through the Q&A with Molly Quinn (voice of Supergirl and one of the stars of Castle) for my last article [...]

The Neglected Nemeses: Deathstroke

The Neglected Nemeses: Deathstroke

One of the first names that pops up when asked which DC villain needs to be features in a film is Deathstroke, the rogue who has been one of the most popular for the Teen Titans. However, this assassin has also been on the side of “good” when needed. Many will tell you that he is the DC version of Deadpool, or vice-versa, and it is hard to dispute the similarities. In the long run, I think that Deathstroke is a baddie that should be taken a bit more seriously than his Marvel counterpart, as he is a man that has a purpose and nothing will get in his way.

MrComicBook Reviews Constantine #1

MrComicBook Reviews Constantine #1

DC seems to have thrown away the “wave” method of releasing new books.  Instead, they are just releasing them whenever they feel like it.  Constantine is one of those books, and #1 is a decent enough book. Jeff Lemire and Ray Fawkes dive right into the history of John Constantine and why his character is [...]

The Neglected Nemeses: Ares

The Neglected Nemeses: Ares

In this installment of The Neglected Nemeses, we look at one of the biggest, baddest mo-fos that Wonder Woman has had to face. But, he has not always gone by this name, as during most of the Golden Age, Silver Age and Bronze age of comics, he went by the name of Mars, the name [...]

Review: Swamp Thing #18

Review: Swamp Thing #18

With the “Rotworld” officially over, it is time for Scott Snyder to end his run on Swamp Thing.  It’s fitting that Snyder goes out with a bang. While Animal Man #18 acted as a “Rotworld” epilogue, Swamp Thing #18 is more about Snyder capping off his year and a half run.  Buddy Baker is nowhere [...]

Rumor: David S. Goyer to Pen Man of Steel Sequel

Rumor: David S. Goyer to Pen Man of Steel Sequel

It’s not uncommon these days for a studio to begin work on a sequel before the first film even releases. In fact, more and ore often, this is the case. With Warner Brothers and DC Comics, however, this is a bit of surprising news; at least to this geek. With the studio recently going back [...]

Wonder Woman Fan Film Trailer Wows

Wonder Woman Fan Film Trailer Wows

 A fan film trailer for Wonder Woman has been making waves early today and I have to say is quite good. It looks to take place in WWII giving a nod to Wonder Woman’s origins and early years in the DCU. The costumes and cinematography are really amazing and this should indicate to Warner Bros. [...]

Dc Comics New 52 : Vibe #1 Review

Dc Comics New 52 : Vibe #1 Review

DC Comics New 52 Vibe #1 is something I didn’t expect to find myself reading, Vibe in general as a character was before my time, and then just looking him up and reading about him you could tell he wasn’t the best character out there. He was a break dancer, had a bit of power, [...]

New 52: Justice League of America #1

DC Comics New 52 version of the Justice League of America had me very skeptical at first, I mean when you see the line up and you think about the past of some of these characters you realize that this mix and match team isn’t exactly the big seven, but then when you see the [...]

The Neglected Nemeses: Bizarro

When it was announced that DC Comics and Warner Brothers would be bringing new life into the Superman film franchise a few years back, rather than continuing the series Bryan Singer took over in 2006, one of the biggest wishes from fans was to have a more physical threat for the Man of Steel to [...]
