Batman Eternal #52 — Story: Scott Snyder and James Tynion IV; Script: James Tynion IV; Art: Eduardo Pansica and Julio Ferreira; Robson Rocha and Guillermo Ortego; David LaFuente; Tim Seeley; Ray Fawkes Let’s start this week with two DC books: an ending and a beginning. Batman Eternal finishes its one-year weekly run, and in decent enough fashion: 37 pages but still at its regular $3.99 price, with a number of different art teams. Was it worth buying 52 $3.99 issues ($207.48)? That depends on your passion for Bat-stories, but it certainly gave a number of supporting characters a chance to … Continue reading

Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #298
The week between Christmas and New Year’s is traditionally very light, and this one’s no exception — but, fortunately, there are still some comics worth mentioning: Abigail and the Snowman #1 (of 4) — Writer/Artist: Roger Langridge; Colors: Fred Stresing Langridge has delivered a lot of quality humor/bigfoot books over the last few years; his dry British wit and adaptable art made him perfect for The Muppets, and he pivoted from that to a pitch-perfect Elsie Segar-inspired Popeye.

This story’s set in 1949, a period whose fashions and people Chaykin has always loved to draw (Satellite Sam, his other current work, is set the same era — and written by Matt Fraction, who knows full well how to keep his artists happy), and watching him set up his plot, craft … Continue reading

Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #263
So far, this has been the year of the first issue, with lots of reboots, brand-new series and plain-old-relaunches almost every week. This time, we’ve got nine first issues to look at (and there were actually a few more than that I didn’t get to), so let’s start with the obvious best-seller: Batman Eternal #1 (of 52) — Story: Scott Snyder; Script: James Tynion IV; Consulting Writers: Ray Fawkes, John Layman and Tim Seeley; Art: Jason Fabok DC isn’t stupid: if you want to sell more comics, take your top-selling book and create a one-year weekly comic about it, making … Continue reading
