Just in time for the start of spooky season, DC’s I Know What You Did Last Crisis hits stands October 2nd. This holiday anthology takes a different approach than previous iterations, as each spooky story takes place during a previous crisis, or perhaps more accurately, a crossover event. It covers events from the first “Crisis” in 1985, Crisis on Infinite Earths, to Flashpoint in 2011. This 80-page behemoth is packed with spine-chilling threads that will please even the most continuity-minded reader.direct currentI’ll be the first to admit that there are some holes in my comic book reading, especially when it…

Whether you have a brand new iPad or are still using an older model, investing in a good case is one of the best ways to protect your device. After all, the iPad is a versatile device that you can take with you anywhere, so it’s likely to get dropped, scratched, or spilled from time to time. Also, if you have children, the chances of an accident happening are higher. A case acts as an extra layer of protection, protecting your iPad from the bumps and bruises of everyday life. But it’s not just about protection. Many iPad cases come…
E-Ink tablets have always been intriguing to me because I’m a longtime lover of pen and paper. I’ve had probably hundreds of notebooks over the years, serving as repositories for my story ideas, to-do lists, meeting notes and everything in between. However, I turned away from physical notebooks at a certain point because it was just easier to store everything digitally so I always had my most important information at my fingertips.E-Ink tablets seem to provide the best of both worlds: the tactile satisfaction of regular notebooks with many of the conveniences found in digital tools, plus easy-on-the-eyes E-Ink screens.…
In Ryan North and Carlos Gomez’s Fantastic Four #18, our heroes visit the impact site of what is believed to be a Tunguska-sized “asteroid” (please excuse the misnomer, it actually is) meant a meteorite).

It’s hard to believe that this is Geoff Johns’ last issue of the Justice Society of America. Some creators are connected to their characters, while others have become synonymous with their companies. It was an exciting experience. For the most part, we have some great comic books from his time at the company. I was lucky enough to be reading Grant Morrison and Howard Porter’s JLA when the “modern” JLA/JSA crossover happened in Crisis Times Five. Luckily, that momentum continued with one of DC’s fifth week events, JSA Returns, which continued into the JSA series. It was a great experience,…

Nothing ever goes well for DC’s comic relief characters, but no more Plastic Man! #2 reveals just how devastating life can be for the characters, often accompanied by a laugh track. The rapid dissolution of Plastic Man’s character follows the next stage of his slowly progressing demise. Once again, Christopher Cantwell, Alex Lynds, Jacob Edgar, Marcelo Maiolo, and Becca Carey develop a truly gripping story that shows Eel could be more than just a sitcom star. I put all my effort into proving that.In terms of artistic talent, Plastic Man No More! #2 picks up where issue #1 left off.…
