Batman/Superman #1 [Review]: Bruce & Clark Begins.. we think.

Deciding to read this book whilst listening to Hans Zimmer’s score for the Man of Steel was a big mistake. A score that epic could have only been met by the level of Scott Snyder and Jim Lee's Superman Unchained. But that was two weeks ago. So I re-read my assignment, thinking it would change …

AGE OF ULTRON #10 [Review]: Not even “Scary Trousers” can save this Virtual Boy…

Age of Ultron has been one roller coaster of a comic...and it'd still be rolling down the street if this "event" were on DVD. For the past couple issues, Marvel's version of the "Big Bad Wolf" (see: Busch Gardens) has been stopped or rerouted more times than anyone would like to mention. Hank Pym's pride-and-joy …

GREEN LANTERN #21 [Review]: No, Seth; this ISN’T The End!

Robert Venditti? Who the hell is Robert Venditti, and why is his name printed where The All-Mighty Geoff Johns’ name goes? Okay, so I was skeptical about this Venditti character becoming the new writer of Green Lantern. Why had I never heard the name of the man who was going to be taking care of …

X-MEN #1 [Review]: Girls just do it better.

First, allow me to begin this review with a simple statement: I am an X-men fan. A mega one. In fact, like many other lucky comic-teen-nerds in the 90s, my first issue was Chris Claremont & Jim Lee's X-Men #1. There's no question that Lee’s revamped “Blue and Gold” X-team hooked me in with the issue's …

BIOSHOCK INFINITE [Review]: The Last Great of the Last-Gen?

Okay, okay, I know. The game came out just over 2 months ago and we're just getting around to reviewing it now. I hear you. I do. And I agree that I should've been mesmerized by the overabundance of hype behind the game; but the cynic in me couldn't help but assume a game with …

GREEN LANTERN #20 [Review]: All good things must come to an end…

Green Lantern is the title that got me back into superhero comics. Around 6 months before the release of the Watchmen film, I was curious as to exactly what this certain cape-and-cowl phenomenon was. There was an Entertainment Weekly cover. Action figures. T-shirts. Lots of word of mouth. Like anyone this green, I hopped over to Borders …
