WONDER WOMAN [Review]: Her Universe.

I sit here, writing my thoughts on the Wonder Woman movie on fucking Wonder Woman Day -- a Wonder Woman Day, an actual day designated by DC Comics dedicated to The First Lady of comics. Having seen the movie on Thursday, I'm stilled with so much inspiration, admiration, excitement and hype for a character that …

BATMAN / SUPERMAN / GREEN LANTERNS / GREEN ARROW [Rebirth Reviews]: Born Again Heroes.

Considering Bats' involvement with uncovering the mysteries that are fueling DC's new rebirth (in DCU Rebirth #1), it's only fitting that a few of the themes of the whole event are front and center in Batman's own restart issue. The issue of lost time, and time being messed with, is very appropriately dealt with as …

WONDERCON 2016 [The Bible Scale]: L.A. Witnesses A ‘Rebirth’.

Another year, another WonderCon. Only this time, the "baby Comic-Con" took place this Easter in Los Angeles--just 40-miles or so from its usual Disneyland residence. While the show missed its share of oversized mouse-ears (and had exhaustingly larger entry and foodtruck lines than expected), the Con had a myriad amount to showcase from its Burbank-neighboring …

DIVERGENCE [#FCBD Spotlight] vs. CONVERGENCE [Sunday Stash, Rd. IV]: Boxin’ in the Free World.

One DC Comics event down, another one up-- or two, if you include both The Darkseid War and Divergence. If you haven't read the free comic preview for Divergence, we can tell you that this "event" stands more as an era in the major publisher's line than a mere series of event comics. In addition to …
