A full bracket for DC's March solicits
Robot 6 @ Comic Book Resources &bull Dec 15, 2011
Since the March solicitations kick off the back half of the New 52s first year, it's probably worth noting that the whole line remains unchanged: no "midseason replacements" like Justice Society, but no cancellations either. If I hear relieved sighs… Full Story »

Green Lantern Butt's FOREVER! &bull Dec 5, 2011
I've been making my usual round of the various blogs and message boards and stuff, and it has come to m attention, that James Robinson is expressing some doubt about whether or not DC will continue to publish his Shade Mini-series...due to faltering sales. Gahhhh! This...will not stand! I LOVE the Shade!… Full Story »

Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong.… Full Story »

Point One
Comics And...Other Imaginary Tales &bull Dec 1, 2011
So a few weeks ago Marvel released Point One, an anthology book designed to tease a bunch of new titles and storylines coming out in the next calendar year. A book like this is both a great idea and a terrible idea. On the one hand, I hate this kind of thing. Teasing future storylines is a sure fire way to get comic fans excited. They may not give a damn when they actually happen, but we loooove them when… Full Story »

CBR Review: Captain Atom, issue 3
CBR Reader Reviews &bull Nov 18, 2011
One of the more dramatic re-inventions of September's re-launch has been J.T. Krul and Freddie Williams II tackling "Captain Atom." In the past, the character's been all over the map; military commander, exasperated leader, emotionless being, destroyer of universes, and inspiration for part of "Watchmen." This new series feels like it's picking and choosing from these past appearances… Full Story »

The Geoff Johns Literalism Method: A Primer
Comics Alliance &bull Nov 17, 2011
Geoff Johns is quite possibly the single most successful superhero comics writer in the business today, with an almost alchemical ability to transform any struggling franchise or character into a top-tier title ripe for spinoffs and multimedia exploitation. It's a feat the writer performed not only with Green Lantern, but also with DC Comics' TheFlash and Justice Society of America. The "New Geoff Johns #1 Issue" is a market force to be reckoned with, and this past September he began to do it again with the New 52's Justice League and Aquaman. What is it that Geoff Johns does so… Full Story »

Cancelled Trade Cavalcade: REBELS: Starstruck and cancellation musings
Collected Editions &bull Nov 9, 2011
Cancelled Trade Cavalcade -- where the Collected Editions blog looks at some trades that never quite made print. Big news last week was the cancellation of DC Comics's REBELS: Starstruck (which you can still see listed at the link on DC's site even though they've announced it cancelled). So big was the news about REBELS that despite that we've lost Doom Patrol: Fire Away, JSA All-Stars: Puzzle Men, and the Weird Worlds collection officially, and good money says Nick Spencer's Supergirl: Good Looking Corpse is going to go soon, too, this is the first time the recent cancellations have scored… Full Story »

The Luckiest Character Ever?
Silver Age Comics &bull Nov 1, 2011
My vote goes to the Black Canary. She got a very late start, debuting as a guest star in the Johnny Thunder feature in Flash #86. Johnny Thunder had a long history in the DC universe at that point, having appeared in such historic comics as NY Worlds Fair Comics #2, Flash Comics #1, and All-Star #3, in which he became a charter member of the Justice Society of America. With the exception of some small insets, it was the only time a feature other than… Full Story »

Cancelled Trade Cavalcade: Suicide Squad: Nightshade Odyssey and Supergirl: Good Looking Corpse
Collected Editions &bull Oct 26, 2011
Cancelled Trade Cavalcade -- where the Collected Editions blog looks back at some trades that never quite made print. You were going to see a different Cancelled Trade Cavalcade today, but in light of the fact that Suicide Squad Vol. 2: The Nightshade Odyssey suddenly disappeared from DC Comics's release list, we interrupt your regularly scheduled cavalcade. The 1980s Suicide Squad series has had a long, strange collection history of late. In 2009 or earlier, DC solicited a black-and-white Showcase Presents Suicide Squad that would have collected the series' first eighteen issues plus some crossovers; they cancelled this (twice, I… Full Story »
