You explain why you called yourself Apollo, which had to do with Hyacinth. Apollo turned Hyacinth into something else, something more beautiful, even better. Even with all the crap Midnighter had to deal with, Apollo believed his lover could rise above it and become something better. Neither...
I guess have some angel-powers grafted onto you. Especially if your own powers won't work in hell. Midnighter does, and he fights Neron, the devil who's taken his lover, Apollo. This is mostly fighting, and mostly Midnighter getting his face kicked in. Then again, he's used to fighting, even...
Because it's all about hope: Apollo's hope that he can outwit Neron, and Midnighter's hope that he can rescue Apollo. Midnighter backs up his hope, with determination, with stamina, and he punches and kicks his way into the darkest parts of hell, where Apollo is being held, determined to punch and ...
Midnighter goes to Hell to save Apollo. This gets a lot less weird than most of the graphic novels set in the DC or Marvel universes. It doesn't try to shoehorn it into the story without worrying about offending people, which is the sense I get with other stories. This is about Midnighter do...
While everyone tries to convince Midnighter that Apollo is dead and that he has to deal with his grief, he counters with 'no, I believe Apollo is alive, thank you very much.' He refuses hugs and any comfort, and instead tries to revive Apollo and then tries to find Apollo's soul. Riiiight. Beca...
MIdnighter is back with Apollo, has friends, and he still gets to kill the crap out of evildoers. Sounds perfect, right? And it is, especially in this issue, at least until The Gardener's ex-boytoy comes along and Midnighter just has to find Henry Bendix, a mad scientist who had tried to kill an...
These aren't bad enough for me to stop reading, nor are they a horrible reading experience. They simply don't get me all that excited. I find that I can't bring myself to get up the energy to write that much about them, either. This one seemed to have an interesting time-travel/AU twist, but ...
This is even darker than the Flash volume! Batman isn't the Batman we know and love. He's a much more driven, more morally compromised version. What would happen if a man's child was killed in front of him and he was powerless to prevent it. The Joker is probably even more twisted, and you wouldn't ...
Crossposted at The Bibliosanctum.This book is a series of mini-arcs giving a glimpse of a world where Bruce Wayne’s Batman doesn’t exist. It asks: “What kind of ripples would’ve been made in the world if Bruce had been the one to die in that alley and not his parents?” Initially, I read “Batman: Kni...
