Cause and Effect are one of the storytelling engines where Mark Waid leans against Batman and Robin. All major players feel connected to the fallout of past events. The death we witnessed in the final issue is a spark that pushes the “general” even further into the shadows, deepening the emotional stakes between Batman, Robin and Alfred. Their bond feels like both weapons and vulnerability. Wade and Chris Samney hope the series will grab the barrels and test it with joy towards conclusion. This part is a matter of daring to place dynamic duoes in the cufflinks. So, what did…

There was a lot to be excited when Torunngrønbekk began running her Catwoman. One of them was a return to the form of Selina Kyle being the hero of her own story, not focusing the story or characters on the complicated romance with Bruce Wayne. This led to other exciting things about the run of Grønbekk: the expansion of the world of Catwoman. This included exploring other relationships that were important to her, but not bound by Batman or his family. For her first nine issues, Grønbekk has provided them all in all respects. Apart from exploring the hidden chapters…
So far, Absolute Flash has done an incredible job of immersing us in the gradually becoming a superhero of Absolute Wally West. We saw his origins, met his allies and were introduced to some of his villains. But that wouldn’t be a flashbook without his rogue. Heroes like Batman and Spider-Man have many villains who never end their battles with their respective heroes, but their relationship with the Flash is always different. If you’ve seen Justice League Unlimited, you know what I mean. Many of Flash’s Rogues are people with more human and tragic backstories that often cause trouble. But…
One of the absolute Batman’s biggest surprises is its art consistency. In less-thoroughly tuned series, guest artists may appear in the same arc on two or three issues, but here they are always responsible for special flashbacks and side stories. The result is a cohesive and theme-heavy reading experience. That’s why I loved these issues the most. They feel like one shot with a character-focused core and self-contained emotional payoffs. This time, Clay Mann will be at the helm and explore the story of the absolute origins of Bane and how he turned out. DC Surrounded by Alfred’s horrifying thoughts,…
The classic serial comic strip variant of the time of King Arthur is often known as Prince Variant – when translated into German, the main character and title became Prinz Eisenhertz (literally “Prince Iron Heart”). This legendary and long-term comic strip about the Knights of the Roundtable – their chivalrous acts in a romantic medieval world, fighting and defeating demons, magicians, evil of all sorts – captured the minds and imagination of German-speaking audiences just like American readers. For many, this vision of Arthur’s world remains the standard on which all stories of knights and chivalry are based. Austrian-born cartoonist…

Throughout all the Terminator films, I had one persistent question: “What is the future war like?” Just a glimpse of bits and pieces between Terminator and Terminator 2: On the day of judgment, the conflict between humanity and Skynet looked bleak. Soon, other Terminator media will begin to expand it. The Terminator’s salvation is set entirely during this period, but some may argue that it did not seize the possibility. Declan Shalvey and Luke Sparrow aim to change it in Terminator #10, which was set entirely during the war between Skynet and humanity. Terminator #10 follows a few soldiers trying…
