First things first, Congrats to
@Babillygunn for winning Comics Poster of the Year...you definitly deserved it.
I missed last weeks comic week mainly because I only had two books and that wasn’t something to talk about.
I mean it got Batman Annual which featured Ghostmaker and was mainly to build up Batman Inc new…I liked it and it definitely built interest in the upcoming Batman Inc comic, but it wasn’t something super huge.
The other one was the final of the Shadow war and eh…it ended on a weak note imo.
Sure Damian and Bruce are on good terms again, but overall shadow war was disappointing to me.
Anway, onto comics week
Aquaman: Andromeda #1
That was a damn good issue, especially on the visual part.
I like the vibe an overall start so far, really good stuff.
Batman #124
Abyss finale…yeah it was okay but nothing more.
One final “filler” story so to speak before we move on to a new creative team and a new style etc.
It worked, but it didn’t blew me away.
Batman Killing Time #4
Puh, at times this was really hard because of the constant jumps, and we got a weird amount of cursing dialogue that due to its censoring felt a bit strange.
Still a good series, the art is so good and I do love the overall vibe.
Dark Crisis #1
Well that was a good start that absolutely makes me interested to see where this goes.
The Art is great too and it built a few good things that have me interested in seeing.
Monkey Prince #5
Same as usual, same as usual…nothing to complain there.
I really like it and have a great deal of fun with it being super comicy.
Nubia: Queen of the Amazons #1
More Nubia and Amazons is always good so count me in on that.
First issue was super good, Im absolutely into this.
Poison Ivy #1
Boy that was a surprise, that one is really good.
The Art is so good, the fungus etc stuff looks so creepy and scary, the overall visual design is very nice to look at and gives the world depth.
And most of all, the writing keeps you hooked where Ivys Journey goes.
That could be one of THE stories to read when it comes to Ivy.
Then the big one…DC Pride 2022
That Kevin Conroy story really grabbed my heart, such a strong message that probably will stay with me for longer…I will remember this story for a long time.
The rest of the Stories were good too, very likeable and positive…most you could feel the heart being put in.
But boy the first one sucked ass.
And that was the one with the Prides main big shot…Superman, Son of Kal el.
Such a tonedeaf story on several levels…mainly the way Damian was written imo.
But overall a fantastic read.
It was a rather huge week and a fun week too.
A lot of good stuff, new series that did good in their first issues, a strong Pride comic…so im quite happy overall with the comics week.
