The New 52 #1 – Free Comic Book Day Review

By: Too many to list—check out the review. The Story: Everyone needs a lawyer—especially when your judges are master mages.

By: Geoff Johns (writer), Jim Lee (penciller), Scott Williams, Sandra Hope, Batt, Mark Irwin (inkers), Alex Sinclair, Tony Avina, Hi-Fi (colorists) The Story: Darkseid, wouldn’t printing ads on the back of milk cartons work better than all this?

By: Geoff Johns (writer), Jim Lee (penciller), Scott Williams (inker), Alex Sinclair & Gabe Eltaeb (colorist) The Story: Vic, would this be a bad time for me to suggest you star as the new Bionic Man?

Justice League #1 – Review

By: Geoff Johns (writer), Jim Lee (penciller), Scott Williams (inker), Alex Sinclair (colorist) The Story: I have only one question—what happened to everybody’s underwear?

By: David Finch (writer and penciller), Scott Williams (inker), Alex Sinclair (colors) The Story: Golden Dawn, Part Two: Batman and the Penguin tangle over exactly who is interrogation whom.

Batman #686 – Review

By Neil Gaiman (writer), Andy Kubert (artist), Scott Williams (inks), Alex Sinclair (colors), Jared K. Fletcher (letters) Some Thoughts Before The Review: He’s fucking dead?! Well no, not exactly.

All Star Batman and Robin #10 – Review

By Frank Miller (writer), Jim Lee (pencils), Scott Williams (inks), Alex Sinclair (colors) I’ve got one word to describe this issue: Yawn. I literally fell asleep reading this book.

All Star Batman and Robin, The Boy Wonder #9 – Review

By Frank Miller (writer), Jim Lee (pencils), Scott Williams (inks), Alex Sinclair (color) Oh boy, here we go again. After last issue being somewhat enjoyable, we’re treated to 18 pages of crap once more.
