George Lucas's Star Wars movies are grounded in a binary struggle between good and evil. On the one side you have the Jedi, the Republic and the Rebellion, and on the other the Sith, Palpatine and the Empire he builds. Both are largely monolithic, with people (most famously Anakin Skywalker) occasio...
Of the three Sensation Comics Collections I have read, this is my favorite. It is also the most feminist. There are two stories where Wonder Woman is not a central character - one about a woman army officer and another about two sisters. Both those stories feature girls and women of color. Both s...
It was alright, but I'm not going to be upset if I never read more. (I probably will see if my library has vol 2, though.) I've wanted to try reading more DC comics for a few years, but I never found any motivation. I stumbled across this at the library after watching the movie (also"meh" in my opin...
This book has ten Wonder Woman stories each by different creative teams that put their spin on the character. What I loved about this book was that, while I may have enjoyed some more than others, each story captured the essence of who Wonder Woman is—someone who fights for others; who likes to reso...
My Batman-loving girlfriend* told me the New 52 sucked, and I didn't listen. I saw these at the library, and thought, ooooh, DC's Lady Deadpool! Even Harley didn't save these. Better than the next reboot, but not by much. It didn't help that the same character died in two volumes - which w...
I picked this and Birds of Prey up on free comic book day, and am just now getting around to them...Oops! I really liked this comic. Overall I generally like don't like the Batman/DC heroes but really like their villains so this was something I was really interested in picking up and I wasn't dis...
The one half star I knocked off was for what I felt was the weakest art of the trilogy. However, this one was the funnest read for me, as it had a dark aspect - Han Solo's fate, for example - but was the best outcome for the majority of the characters. Maybe tapping into that little bit of wish ...
Suicide Squad, Vol. 1: Kicked in the Teeth centers on a group of villains unleashed to do the government's dirtier assignments for a shorter prison sentence. To keep the team under control, each member of the squad has a nanite bomb injected in their necks. Problem with villains, such as Harley Quin...
There is something absurdly appealing about this series to me. I guess it's because it's so crazy and out there. A team of super-villains is selected from the population of Belle Reve, a maximum security prison in the middle of the Louisiana swampland designed to house dangerous meta-human criminals...
These Batman Beyond comics have serious issues... It's really hard to care about McGinnis as Batman... Hush is done. This was just pretty meh, but at least better than the other Batman Beyond novel I read..
