Welcome, X-Fans, to another uncanny edition of X-Men Monday at AIPT! No, you haven’t slipped into an alternate universe — it is, in fact, Wednesday. But honestly, it’d cost a fortune to rebrand the column to “X-Men Wednesday,” so hopefully you’ll let this one slide. Plus, we’ve got the Conductor of X himself, Tom Brevoort! I think we can make an eXception. X-Men Monday has already spoken to writers Jed MacKay, Erica Schultz, and David Marquez about their Age of Revelation tie-in series, and now it’s Tom’s turn to break down the event’s origins, as well as tease the future…
Imagine this: Wonder Woman’s daughter Lizzie is on a time travel adventure to grab the Supersons, Damien Wayne and John Kent. Lizzie consults two older selves to keep her timeline intact and triple her chances of avoiding a crisis. This premise sounds like something straight from Bill and Ted’s amazing adventures. And it’s not too far. In this issue, Lizzie, with her Domino’s mask and a Monica’s Wonder Robin, finds herself in Wayne Manor at a key moment in history. This is the halfway point of Tom King’s Batman Run. DC Readers who have not read King’s infamous output have…
The Gaslite version of the Justice League was slowly assembled, and Batman No. 3: Gotham by Gaslite – The League of Justice somehow became appropriately global. The previous series – and the aforementioned series, the Crypton Era – are slowly coming together with alternative versions of key figures from the DC Universe. Each issue appears to invite another character into the fold, whether it’s a classic league member, a compelling Weiler or a more solo character. As the league is built, the outside conspires. DC Question #3 both do a lot: Jay Garrick and Victor Stone go more directly into…
One of the best cartoons of DC’s All-in Initiative is Sophie Campbell’s Supergirl. Aside from the fact that the comic is fun to read every month and embraces Kara Zoruel’s Silver Age history in the best ways, it also expands the Steel’s supporting cast and the Girls of the World. It’s also a manga that still portrays deeper characters, even in a more humorous moment. In Supergirl #5, Campbell takes a break from focusing on Kara and her friends Lena Luther and Lesla Rah, focusing on her life’s super pet. Along with guest artists Paulina Ganuci and Rosi Kempe, Campbell…
Everything about Absolute Batman grows to the way Bane breaks Batman. That’s the case with the absolute Batman #11, but it turns out it wasn’t really realistic, and instead, Bane does something even worse. Targeting Blues’ friends. In Absolute Batman #12, Bruce discovers what happened when he was knocked out for 48 hours, but it’s not pretty. Also, when it comes to origin stories, it’s one of the boldest options. Absolute Batman #12 opens where we left off, and Clock rescues him from Bane, then waits for Batman to get his bearings. He wants to die as Bane and his…
It’s time for Superman to grow up when he tries another newer Kryptonite, literally, in Superman: Kryptonite spectrum #2. The first problem was to develop the reader’s imagination by playing over time, and things almost lying down, but not as bad as the second issue. It’s a catastrophe that makes you wonder if Superman should stop testing without knowing the results! Superman: Cryptonite Spectrum #2 opens immediately with the thickness of Superman’s angry fuel attack against Metropolis. He is as big as a skyscraper and restrained by atoms. Crying about the climate crisis, he appears to be angry with the…
Since Jason Todd Red Hood was taken from the grave in the 2000s, DC has consistently struggled to figure out what to do with Batman’s infamous dead Robin. This was only exacerbated by a flashpoint reboot when DC tried to sell Jason essentially as a “cooler” trigger happy version of Dick Grayson. Since then, Jason has been featured in both solo adventure and Batman Family storylines, but has not been in the way of the storyline that determines outstanding runs and characters in the veins of Batman: Owls Court of Scott Snyder and Greg Capro. During the all-in era, DC…
