Top DC Comics For November [Shadowhawk]

DCU vs MOTU 03

Shadowhawk takes a look at and talks about the top DC comics to watch out for in November, single issues and graphic novels alike.

Forever Evil #1 by Geoff Johns – Comics Review [Bane of Kings/Shadowhawk]

Forever Evil 01

Bane of Kings and Shadowhawk review the first issue of the new Forever Evil event mini-series from Geoff Johns.

An otherwise excellent story hampered by its poor art, the first outing for Forever Evil provides a mixed bag.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields

“A bold new vision of the New 52 DCU is beginning to unfold here and this is going to be one hell of a ride if this issue is any indication, aside from a few negatives.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

Trinity War – A DC Comics Event Review [Shadowhawk/Bane of Kings]

Trinity War 01

Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings take a look at the six-issue crossover event that leads into the current ongoing Forever Evil event.

“Start to finish, this was one hell of a ride, and as the first mega-event in comics that I’ve been able to follow issue by issue, this definitely was something else. Geoff Johns and Jeff Lemire started off great, and they ended great, with ample support from all the artists involved like Ivan Reis, Joe Prado, Mikel Janin and the others who were really on top-form here.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

“Worth buying all the issues for rather than just reading the ones from the comics you follow. Top notch stuff.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields

Comics Round-up 01.09.2013

Batgirl 23

Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the first comics round-up for September.

“After two fairly good story arcs, Justice League Dark heads downhill with the addition of writer Ray Fawkes even as JMS’ second installment of Wonder Woman: Odyssey impresses as much as the first. Greg Rucka continues to impress as usual with the second and third issues of his creator-owned project with Image, and I dip back into the Marvel Now universe with Young Avengers with a somewhat tepid first arc.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

An awesome new arc for Batgirl gets underway, Captain America reaches its penultimate issue in Dimension Z, and Chris Roberson’s Masks delivers an impressive but flawed union of Dynamite Comic’s strongest heroes. ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields

Comics Round-up 15.08.2013

Justice League Dark Volume 2

Shadowhawk brings to you the second comics round-up for August.

“With a creative change, Justice League Dark gets much better in its second volume, while Chuck Dixon’s first Nightwing arc with the hero setting up in Blüdhaven also proves to be quite enjoyable. ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

JLA 06

Shadowhawk takes a look at some of the linked artworks for DC’s Trinity War event.

“There’s only one word that encapsulates the feel and effect of these covers: fanfrikkintasticallyawesome.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

Comics Round-up 16.07.2013

Death of Superman

Shadowhawk and Bane of Kings welcome you to the second comics round-up for July.

“In a recent full-on run with various DC titles, it has been quite a mixed bag, in a good way. Doomsday proved to be a technically great story that I mostly enjoyed while Milligan’s first arc on Justice League Dark had its great moments as well. The strongest title here is definitely Gail Simone’s breakout hit (as far as I am concerned) The Movement which continues from strength to strength.” ~Shadowhawk, The Founding Fields

With Marvel, Young Avengers and Daredevil: Dark Nights both get off to an incredible start, while at DC, Snyder proves that he can write two-issue arcs as well as year-long epics, and Kyle Higgins gives Nightwing a fantastic new direction.” ~Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields
