Despite starting as an “event,” the 2099 storyline ends as a small origin story.
All in Crossover
Year of the Villain: Hell Arisen #1 // Review
Year of the Villain: Hell Arisen #1 is completely superfluous.
Harley Quinn's Villain of the Year #1 // Review
The laughs themselves are a bit weak, but Russell and Norton host a fun, little 30-page party for anyone interested in attending.
Jane Foster: Valkyrie #6 // Review
A young hero leads a group of mid-list superheroes on a mission to save Death.
Hellmouth #3 // Review
Hellmouth #3 feels like filler.
Absolute Carnage #5 // Review
Absolute Carnage has been a good event, but it feels unfinished, and the final issue ends extremely abruptly.
Black Cat Annual #1 // Review
A brilliant approach to an Indiana Jones/Tomb Raider-style adventure…with a bit of Ocean’s Eleven thrown-in.
Hellmouth #2 // Review
Hellmouth #2 is competently drawn, if a bit hackneyed in its writing.
Harley Quinn #67 // Review
In a special Thanksgiving issue, Booster Gold teaches Harley the true meaning of Crossover.
Angel #6 // Review
Angel #6 is the strongest issue of the title to date, focusing on the supporting cast rather than the title character.
The Amazing Mary Jane #1 // Review
There are interesting little bits of promise emerging from an intriguing concept.
Jane Foster: Valkyrie #4 // Review
The series regains some momentum as CAFU puts in some very, very deft work.
Absolute Carnage #4 // Review
Absolute Carnage #4 is dumb action, and thank God for it.
Supergirl #35 // Review
Supergirl continues to make a very appealingly heroic presence.
Batman Beyond #36 // Review
Jurgens sets things up in an auspicious direction at issue's end.
Absolute Carnage #3 // Review
Breaking up is hard to do in Absolute Carnage #3.
Batgirl #38 // Review
Castellucci is putting together smart, interesting stuff that details Batgirl’s distinctive style of selflessness.
Absolute Carnage #2 // Review
Keeping the action within the Spider-family gives Absolute Carnage #2 tight focus and clear stakes.
Ghost Spider #1 // Review
McGuire's writing is particularly sharp in this debut issue of the new series.
Harley Quinn #64 // Review
Fuses interpersonal drama with lighthearted fourth wall shattering multi-genre spoofery.
