Doom Patrol #4
Wed, November 4th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Doom Patrol" has its least amount of gloom yet. . . just in time for "Blackest Night." No, that wasn't a joke.
Astonishing X-Men #32
Wed, November 4th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Astonishing X-Men" isn't bad, but thanks to its earlier terminal lateness, it's turned into a book that doesn't feel important.
Sky Pirates of Neo Terra #2
Wed, November 4th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
This charming series may be a video game tie-in, but that doesn't make it any less delightful.

Sun, November 1st, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
The mystery of Rock Raven’s murder is solved with a huge revelation in this final issue.
Fantastic Four #572
Sat, October 31st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Hickman exorcises the Reed Richards-centric focus by focusing on a Reed Richards-centric story. And it works!
Ambush Bug: Year None #7
Sat, October 31st, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Issue #7 in this 6-part series is a disjointed disappointment.
Detective Comics #858
Fri, October 30th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
As though I needed to develop a man-crush on a comic book artist. This issue is crush-inducing, so read at your own risk.
FVZA: Federal Vampire and Zombie Agency #1
Fri, October 30th, 2009 | By Augie De Blieck Jr.
It's a high concept book trading on some of today's hottest high concepts, but it's a frustratingly slow start.
X-Factor #50
Thu, October 29th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"X-Factor" has its future storyline lurch towards a conclusion, even as it looks ahead to the upcoming "X-Factor" #200.
Batman #692
Thu, October 29th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Tony Daniel's first issue as writer/artist of "Batman" is already a step up from "Battle for the Cowl."
World's Finest #1
Thu, October 29th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
The DC Universe has frequently embraced the concept of legacy, frequently using old names in new ways to keep a brand alive or to spawn new ideas. "World's Finest" returns from the idea bin with a fresh team-up and a load of fun.

Noh-Varr and Fantomex team up to save the World. Oh hell yes.
Ultimate Comics Armor Wars #2
Wed, October 28th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Entertaining, but not entirely substantive. Though, Ellis continues to write a fantastic Ultimate Tony Stark.
Green Lantern #47
Wed, October 28th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
The main tie-in book to "Blackest Night" continues to entertain on multiple levels.
Blackest Night #4
Wed, October 28th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
A largely inconsequential issue unless you like boring speeches about being a hero and watching Barry Allen run around.
The Eternal Conflicts of the Cosmic Warrior #1
Tue, October 27th, 2009 | By Augie De Blieck Jr.
It's more of a pilot issue than a complete issue, but there's enough interesting stuff going on to make it worth a read. Plus, Paul Grist's art!
Ultimate Comics Avengers #3
Tue, October 27th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Enter the Avengers, a group that’s made up of new, darker versions of the Ultimates. It all comes down to how much you enjoy Mark Millar’s scummy characters.
The Incredible Hercules #137
Tue, October 27th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
This issue of "Incredible Hercules" follows the continuing journey of Amadeus Cho. The decisions he makes here will play out in these pages for a long time to come.
X-Necrosha #1
Tue, October 27th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
The three participating books in "X-Necrosha" show what they've got in store with zombie mutants, and there's some fun stuff up ahead.
DCU Halloween Special 2009 #1
Tue, October 27th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
Continuing a DCU tradition, this issue features a bunch of fan favorite characters celebrating the Halloween season. The efforts put forth for the stories contained in this issue -- as well as the results -- are mixed.
Superman/Batman #65
Mon, October 26th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Peter Johnson and Matt Cherniss write "Superman/Batman" with an overly-familiar story, but the art here is lovely.
Azrael #1
Mon, October 26th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
The writing in "Azrael" makes me want to read more, but the artist choice isn't right for the script.
The Incredible Hulk #603
Mon, October 26th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Incredible Hulk" makes both Skaar and Daken interesting. Bet you didn't think that was even possible.
Rin-ne Vol. 1
Mon, October 26th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Rin-ne" may feel a bit familiar to people who've read Rumiko Takahashi's past comics, but the book is so charming it's hard to mind.

Sun, October 25th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
The story doesn’t fully work in this issue, but the art is gorgeous and features a double-page spread that will blow you away.
Dark Avengers #10
Thu, October 22nd, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
A marked drop in quality in this issue as the tone is too light-hearted and Deodato’s art doesn’t mesh with the script as much as usual.
Dark Wolverine #79
Thu, October 22nd, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Horrendous art kills a lackluster story in one of the worst comics I've read this year.
Justice League of America #38
Wed, October 21st, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
James Robinson and Mark Bagley begin their much anticipated run on "Justice League of America" in this issue, which also straightens out some timing concerns fans may have had about the books that are currently hitting the shelves every month.
Spider-Woman #2
Wed, October 21st, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Jessica Drew wakes up in a Madripoor prison after killing a Skrull. Clearly, her life could be better.
Final Crisis Aftermath: Dance #6
Wed, October 21st, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
Super Young Team battles Rising Sun and Mister Mind in this metafictional, high-action finale.
Superman: Blackest Night #3
Wed, October 21st, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
This sidebar of the "Blackest Night" saga wraps with the heroes being heroic and evil slinking off into the shadows. Of course it also points back to the main "Blackest Night" title.

Thunderbolts #137
Tue, October 20th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Rick Remender doesn't get off to a great start here, and the art by Mahmud Asrar doesn't help.
Web of Spider-Man #1
Mon, October 19th, 2009 | By James Hunt
“Web of Spider-Man” returns as an anthology title.
Perhapanauts Halloween Spooktacular #1
Mon, October 19th, 2009 | By Doug Zawisza
DeZago, Rousseau and crew turn out a new "Perhapanauts" issue for the spooky holiday. This story features Halloween more than feels like Halloween, and in this case, that works well. This is a nice treat with limited trickery involved.
The Incredible Hercules #136
Mon, October 19th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Incredible Hercules" is even better than your friends are telling you. And that's before you include gods giving each other wedgies.
Blackest Night: Batman #3
Mon, October 19th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Of all the spin-off "Blackest Night" mini-series so far, it's Batman that turns out to have the winner.
