REVIEW: Red Lanterns #35


Posted in: Red Lanterns Reviews

 

The crossover rolls on with the another emotional spectrum book taking the spotlight. Now it’s time to focus on the Red Lanterns who (due to events of Lights Out) have claimed sector 2814 as their territory. Unfortunately for me this one title I don’t keep up with on a regular basis. I apologize if I gleam over anything that seems important. This review will rather see how this book fit’s in the over all scheme of Godhead. So with that being said, what is up with Guy Gardner and his motley crew (not the band) of Red Lanterns are up.

REVIEW: The Multiveristy: The Just


Posted in: Multiversity Reviews

 

Well ladies and gentlemen it’s once again time to jump into the bleed, and see where our conductor Grant Morrison takes us this time. If the cover is any indication of what exactly this issue will be about it’s a fun coincidence that this comes out a week after Batgirl making current culture today the focal point. How exactly does the world of superheros mesh with modern culture? Should they treated as separate or does a mesh work for the better? Well let’s see what Morrison has in store for Earth 16!

REVIEW: Green Lantern New Guardians #35


Posted in: Green Lantern New Guardians Reviews

 

The crossover rolls on with the focus shifting towards everyone’s favorite White Lantern, Kyle Rayner. Due to Kyle’s incident with the Source Wall and the discovery of the Life Equation in makes complete sense that Kyle will be the focal point for this epic story. Plus given last month’s Futures End tie-in readers have a vague idea of what Kyle’s ultimate fate might be. Will this book continue the theme of Lanterns having their collective tushes kicked by the New Gods? Or will the shift in titles make the tone change as well? Let’s charge up and find out shall we.

REVIEW: Earth 2 #27


Posted in: Earth 2 Reviews

One might think that with a weekly book dedicated to Earth 2 one might think that this book is a bit a redundant now. Well that’s neither here nor there and it’s all about what’s inside the book that matters. So have ever meet a family member once and then never again? Only for them to show up years later in a odd situation? Well that’s the the theme for this issue of Earth 2, and the nature of what it means to have a family during times of crisis.

REVIEW: Green Lantern Corps #35


Posted in: Green Lantern Corps Reviews

 

You know the players and you know the game, now it’s time to dive just a bit further into Godhead. The biggest issue with Godhead so far is that of the power scale. For the first time in quite a while the New Gods were actually treated like Gods, which is great but from a story perspective it could write this crossover into a hole. For now it appears that this will be a slow burn with bursts of action for each issue. Let’s see if the momentum continues with this issue of Green Lantern Corps.

REVIEW: Earth 2 Worlds End #1


Posted in: Earth 2 Reviews

 

The time has finally arrived, the debut of yet another weekly book from DC comics this time focusing on Earth 2 and their troubles. Now that the book has been expanded 100 pages per month (do the math) this could be a great way to fully develop the cornucopia of characters for this Earth. Plus it seems that two lost souls have may their way home and how does their return affect the heroes of Earth 2? Plus Terry Sloan and Bedlam are still out there, so let’s not waste any time and pages and let’s watch the World End.

What an opening for Godhead right? If that previous chapter was any indication, then the Green Lanterns are outclassed in every single way. In a way this paints the story into a bit of a corner, but it also can make the reader wonder how exactly this “war” will play out. When you factor in the drastic choices Hal has had to make, what is going to have to do with an enemy like the New Gods? Let’s not waste any light with part 2 right of Godhead.

REVIEW: Green Lantern/New Gods Godhead #1


Posted in: Green Lantern Reviews

 

Jack “King” Kirby, a name synonymous with super hero comics greatest icons. Namely from the Marvelous side of things, but as many know he did create magic for DC, the most famous being the New Gods. The New Gods are a peculiar bunch, with many recognizing the figures but few understanding their actual origins. They have there share of the spotlight, namely from Grant Morrison and Jim Starlin in recent memory but this the first real use of the New Gods in the New 52. It’s the start of a long three month crossover so let’s buckle in and start the show already.

REVIEW: The Multiversity Society of Super-Heroes


Posted in: Multiversity Reviews

 

Morrison is back again and this time with an all new Earth to explore, filled with wonders and mysteries. Lucky for this site, a Green Lantern actually appears in this issue so kudos to Morrison there. After the zany epic that was the opening salvo, one must wonder what will come out next Especially since the golden rule with a Grant Morrison story is to expect the unexpected. What awaits readers as they follow the brief adventures of Doc Fate and the SOS? Enough of the chit chat it’s time to break down this story!

REVIEW: Green Lantern New Guardians Futures End #1


Posted in: Green Lantern New Guardians Reviews

 

For this reviewer this is the last Futures End tie-in thus ending DC’s latest gimmick month. Now the spotlight shifts to resident White Lantern, Kyle Rayner. Both Hal and John have gone to the extreme in either actions or personality. Heroes who have been raked through the mud with no other option but to become something they don’t recognize. So when you factor in Kyle’s recent trip into the Source Wall, it’ll be interesting to see what Kyle’s status in Futures End.
