Week Ten

I think that may be my favorite moment in “52” so far. Granted, Black Adam has been nothing short of bad-ass throughout this thing, but that moment is absolutely brilliant. That aside, here’s the rundown on this issue. Clark Kent is fired from the Daily Planet for not being able to secure an interview with…



Week Nine

After hearing about Lex Luthor’s plot to create a procedure designed in order to turn regular saps into super heroes, we finally get a glimpse of what he’s capable of (other than turning John Henry Irons into actual steel). That’s right, folks, he can turn average people into a bunch of foolish looking tough guys…



Week Eight

In week eight, we find out, conclusively, that John Henry Irons has been infected by Lex Luthor’s metagene, which is slowly turning his body into stainless steel, an ironic joke on Luthor’s part, which eventually turns Natasha, Irons’ niece, into Luthor’s hands, where she’s also going to be given the gene, since she thinks her…



Week Seven

Let’s get the nitty gritty out the way first. In this issue, Renee Montoya goes to a private party where she hopes to find some clues on the case they’ve been working on. At the party, she meets with an ex-girlfriend, named Kate Kane, whose family owns the warehouse on 520 Kane Street in the…



Week Six

In this week, we see that Booster Gold finally stoops so low that he actually hires a “villain” whose plans he can easily thwart, thereby pushing him from greedy, camera-hungry entrepreneur to underhanded sleaze-ball. Hal Jordan and John Stewart (the Green Lantern, not the comedian without the “h”) capture Evil Star over Chinese airspace, which,…



It Makes Me Wonder

After picking up and reading the first issue of Wonder Woman today, I’m left wondering why she’s one of the “Big Three” players in the DCU. To put it simply, she’s never interested me, and I don’t understand how she can interest anybody. She has a lasso that makes people tell the truth, bracelets that…



Week Five

Last week, if you’ll recall, my biggest gripe was that week four seemed to go by too quickly, that by putting every one of the individual stories into the same issue made it so that none of them were given ample time to develop anything. This week, the story focuses on one of the smaller…



Week Four

You know how you can sit down on the toilet and read an issue of a comic book by the time you’re done? Well, with this issue, I think you could finish it up before finishing up a whiz. That’s not necessarily a bad thing; I’m just saying that it goes by extremely quickly. Part…
