DCU: Legacies #5--My Thoughts
Finally got/read this today. Always fun carrying around paper products on a rainy day! But off we go:
The Joker's (return to?) murdering people as seen could have placed him in "the state hospital for the criminally insane" that he escapes from in

It was last year that I attended Big Apple comic convention & got the pictures of the Batmobile (which can be found posted on the main site here). A friend sent me this link;

I bought this one on a whim, but probably would have given it a pass if it had been the first issue of a new ongoing series. A quick flip-through told me two things: that Bryan Glass’s story was respectful of continuity and that the art and coloring

The producer who gave us The Rockford Files, The Greatest American Hero, The A-Team, Hunter, Wiseguy, 21 Jump Street, and more, died from melanoma.

Star-Spangled War Stories Featuring Mademoiselle Marie One-Shot
Well, there's a swell Brian Bolland cover (The Power of Fishnets!) and the interior art is pretty good, too. The story is OK, probably my favorite after the Sgt. Rock one. I never read any Mlle. Marie stories before, so it's hard for my to compare t

This a great, very thoughtful review of the second issue of this Married Archie series...

A Crisis on Infinite Earths story with George Perez art? What’s not to like? Actually, this is a story I’ve long since thought needed to be revisited. In the post-CoIE DCU there had been a “Crisis,” but there no longer were “Infinite Earths.” This is

I like stories about Captain Pike’s Enterprise if they’re done well, and this one is done very well, indeed. The story is told in two parts and deals with the relationship between Christopher Pike and Yeoman (later Captain) Colt. The first part of th

First of all I’d like to say how excited I am to be able to report that someone at Dark Horse finally came around to my point of view and changed the paper of their Gold Key reprints (this one, anyway) to a stock that better showcases the original co

I don’t usually buy Archie comics, but every once in a while an unusual story or direction will attract my attention. In this case, it’s the trend of “sympathetic vampires” coming to Riverdale. As a matter of fact, both a vampire and a werewolf trans

I saw this story, and my first thought was, "Yeah, those greecefires can be hard to put out."

Over at Mister Silver Age's forum (glad that's up and running again), I wrote about how the super-villains gathered by Doctor Destiny in Justice League of America #61 (Operation:Jail the Justice League) were a bit lacking. Luthor and the Penguin, fin

O.K., gang, I'm experiencing another problem with getting my column to "press". This time, with the art.
The way it always worked before was, when I added art to my draft, I clicked on the icon in the toolbar marked "Insert Image".
Then I'd get

The art is good. Winslade is certainly a competent artist. The story is OK, but nothing special, nothing that makes me say, "Gee, I wanna read more of these!" I never read any of the old "Haunted Tank" stories, so I can't compare this story to them
