Legion of Super-Heroes: Milliennium #2 is marginally more successful than the first, but it still suffers from many of the same problems that plagued the miniseries’ debut.
All by Jason A. Fleece
Lois Lane #4 // Review
Lois Lane #4 is a great example of why Lois is a linchpin of the DC Universe.
Ghost Rider #1 // Review
Ghost Rider #1 is a compelling first issue, showing a great deal of promise.
Batman/Superman #2 // Review
Fans of widescreen, brainless superhero action should pick up Batman/Superman #2.
Dial H for HERO #7 // Review
Dial H for HERO #7, while largely unnecessary, is still fun because of the work of the four fill-in artists.
Harleen #1 // Review
Stjepan Šejić’s Harleen #1 is a sexy retelling of Harley Quinn’s origin.
Angel #5 // Review
All the components for a good comic are here--a good writer with a handle on the characters, a solid art team that particularly works well together. Why, then, does Angel #5 feel (pardon the pun) lifeless?
Frogcatchers // Review
Jeff Lemire’s elegiac new graphic novel Frogcatchers is highly recommended for a reader willing to engage.
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #3 // Review
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen is the opposite of DC’s often-criticized doom and gloom.
Absolute Carnage #3 // Review
Breaking up is hard to do in Absolute Carnage #3.
Second Coming #3 // Review
Second Coming remains clever enough, which goes a long way in this otherwise unfocused third issue.
Event Leviathan #4 // Review
Event Leviathan #4 continues this fun, brisk, compelling mystery.
Wonder Twins #7 // Review
Wonder Twins #7 is pleasant enough, but it lacks the bite of earlier issues.
Miles Morales: Spider-Man #10 // Review
Birthdays are hard in Miles Morales #10.
Gotham City Monsters #1 // Review
Pardon the expression, but Gotham City Monsters #1 is a strange beast.
Lois Lane #3 // Review
Lois Lane #3 makes the superhero comics’ first couple feel somehow both iconic and real.
Something is Killing the Children #1 // Review
Something is Killing the Children is bleak, horrific, and immediately compelling.
Legion of Superheroes: Millennium #1 // Review
Fantastic art by four different superstar teams don’t help make Legion of Superheroes: Millennium #1 anything other than unnecessary.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #8 // Review
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #8 is a promising, if slight, beginning for the first Buffy/Angel crossover.
Batman/Superman #1 // Review
While Batman/Superman may be essential reading for those following the metastory of the DC Universe, it has some work to do to justify its own existence.
