Stuff That Was Awesome #2

So even with a light week, there’s still plenty of stuff worth reading, and I’m here to tell you what it is! Flash #3 Writer: Geoff Johns Artist: Francis Manapul Oh man.  This Flash series has been some of the best stuff that I’ve read lately.  Very interesting ideas, new characters, and plenty of potential.  I’m not a very big fan of Manapul, but he is really cranking out his best material on this book.  Johns writes it as well as he can, and it’s clear he really enjoys it.  Even Eddie liked this, so I must be right! Secret … Continue reading

Stuff That Wasn’t Very Awesome #2

And we’re back!  This was a lighter week, but don’t worry, I still found some mediocrity in there.  So let’s get to it! Justice League of America #46 Writer: James Robinson Artist: Mark Bagley Justice Society of America #40 Writer: Bill Willingham Artist: Jesus Merino This was rough.  I haven’t really liked anything about the Robinson-Bagley run so far.  It’s been a series of weird narration and what seems like half done Bagley art.  This is no exception.  I really do like Bagley, he’s on time, usually passable to look at, and fairly consistent, but that’s not what we’re getting … Continue reading

Phil’s Reviews — Stuff I Bought #173

Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #3 (of 6) — Writer: Grant Morrison;  Pencils: Yanick Paquette;  Inks: Michel Lacombe Joe the Barbarian #6 ( of 8 ) — Writer: Grant Morrison;  Art: Sean Murphy Two from Morrison this week: B:ROBW, after what felt like a shaky beginning, has been getting better and better, as Our Hero time-hops closer and closer to the present, but his eventual revival may be part of a Darkseid uber-plot. Little of that’s covered this issue, though; instead, we get pirates, including Blackbeard and DC’s own Black Pirate. Yarrr!  Morrison’s clearly having fun with it, while … Continue reading
