Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel are officially returning to comics in major ways thanks to Dynamite Entertainment and Disney’s 20th TV new partnership. This renewal is led by Eisner Award-winning Kelly Thompson, who has launched a bold new chapter for his beloved franchise and writes both the Interconnected Series. Known for her rave reviews under titles such as Captain Marvel, Black Widow, Bird of Prey, and Deadpool, Thompson brings Sunnydale and Los Angeles a signature mix of heart, humor and action. The Buffy and Angel comics act as a companion series, giving longtime fans a fresh twist while also…
SDCC Coverage sponsored by Mad Cave Through the Hollywood Reporter, IDW Publishing has announced that the main Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series will have a new creative team. The pair will take over from Jason Aaron and Juan Ferrelia, who renewed the series (along with a few other artists) during the 40th anniversary of Turtle last year. Little has been said about their running premise, but the reunion of the brothers will see them confront Ujigami, a new assassin who brings “personal danger” to the four heroes. TMNT #13 (2025), Cover A for Freddie E. Williams II In…
Unless you’ve been living under a rock on Krypton, you know that James Gunn‘s Superman movie is out in theaters, and the internet is abuzz with reactions from fans and foes alike. Comics Beat’s finest gathered in our own Justice Gang HQ here at Stately Beat Manor to discuss our thoughts on the movie, the characters and what’s next for the DCU. What were your general thoughts on Superman? DEANNA DESTITO: I loved it. It felt like a comic book movie. It wasn’t trying to be anything but a superhero film, with bright colors, action, maniacal villains, and everything else. It wasn’t trying…
If Spider-Man is not beaten to pulp once every six months, there should be a source of concern. Helgate had arrived in New York as of the last issue. This week’s issue is about knowing when Spider-Man should fight and when he will run away. It’s another quest for new memories from Peter’s youth, but Helgate continues to understand his points using his fist rather than words. Amazing Spider-Man #8 is a kind of test of how much damage Spider-Man and Hellgate can do without the need for a hospital. By the end of the question, it’s very clear that…
Lost Fantasy’s first arc appears in the dramatic closing in issue 4, and we’ll first look at what promises to be a game-changing finale. Henry and Neelas finally confront the killer they’ve been chasing, but the truth they reveal is far more devastating than what they imagined. With oversized action and emotional revelation, Lost Fantasy #4 is a must-see climax of the series’ opening chapter. And if you’re heading towards San Diego Comics Scam, there’s more to it: High Horse Comics is debuting a special black, white & blood edition of Lost Fantasy #1. But don’t expect to grab this…
Congratulations to Jeremy Adams, Xermanico and the rest of the Cosmic Creative Team. Issues #600 gets hot because not only is this current series problem #25, but also Legacy #592. So far, it’s a wild, emotional ride, the even parts are interesting, heartily expanding myths. This issue brings us deeper into the fallout of the recent bursts of the emotional spectrum. Starbreaker is ready to step up with the kids in the fractured spectrum and claim power before the lantern is ready, and yes, things are likely to be colorful. DC I enjoy the Green Lantern and Green Lantern Corps…
The Gotham City Siren No. 4: Not suitable for orbit, the woman not only reunites, but finally begins her ascent into space! As I doubted the previous issue, the third article was a bit of a narrative speed bump to pad out the story to meet the five problem requirements. As it gets out of the way, the book goes back to what made the first two questions work well. The trio of Catwoman, Harley and Poison Ivy kick the ass, take their names and tighten up Quisk while they do it. The Sirens reunion occurs fairly quickly on this…
The new history of the DC Universe will be Hercules’ work to help a single writer separate, even if he is a well-known comic veteran like Mark Wade. It is not only a book designed to understand all the confused DC Canon revisions that began at the Flash Point and continued through the dark crisis of the Infinite Earth, but it is also a book that seeks to reconcile the DC Canon that existed before and after the crisis on the Infinite Earth. These eras are even less compatible with DC Canons that emerged after flashpoints. At best, the new…
“She is a little girl because men are denial of little girls. So she will not be visible. She is the kindest person we can imagine. What I’ve always loved about Wonder Woman is her sense of vulnerability. For decades, Wonder Woman was a face of emotion. She fights for love and compassion, and does so without judgment. Their moral compasses are directed in a variety of emotional directions, which distinguishes her in comparison to her DC compatriots Batman and Superman. Wonder Woman will want to fight for you and have moments of crying. So you’re probably thinking, why open…
“Hush 2” continues this week with Batman #161. We are away from whopper on cliffhanger. Damian and Bane are working together! It’s certainly a surprise as it was made to see Damian kill Alfred in front of him. After overcoming that shock, Batman has to save Damian from Hash, who has a knife in his throat. It’s a fierce opening as the series begins to delve deeper into the mystery. Batman #161 begins with a four-panel layout of Batman playing against Hash, who holds a knife in Damien’s throat. Hush speaks a lot, but doesn’t expect Damian, who has the…
