Yeah, so the bad news is that my new job keeps me busy enough that I’m horrible at keeping up with a weekly Doomino effect schedule. But the good news is, I’m bringing in more money, so I’m buying more comics to review! So let’s start off with Green Lantern #25, the finale of the…
At first, keeping up this website was simple. But as time has gone on, we’ve become more aware of certain elements of this blog’s past that we’d all like to forget. How can I justify choosing Deathblow #1 as the Book of Doom? How can one explain Fin Fang Doom’s infamous Buffy post, or his…
A brief conversation discussing the trends, between Jim Doom and Doom DeLuise: Doom DeLuise: What do you figure accounts for that big bump for both at Week 13? Jim Doom: I really don’t know. Doom DeLuise: Weird. The Week 13 bump in Countdown came after an issue where absolutely nothing happened, featuring the cover of…
I do not know how long it’s been since I’ve done a Doomino Effect. All I know is that it has been too long. So it’s time I returned (sort of like the last time I returned, when it had also been too long since I’d done a Doomino Effect … I’ll try to actually…
I was cleaning out my office this morning and noticed that I hadn’t looked through the November issue of Previews yet. While scanning through Marvel Previews and saw the cover to Fantastic Four #553. Michael Turner bashing has almost gotten to the point where it’s too easy. The guy doesn’t even seem to be trying…
First off, I misspoke, or miswrote, or just plain screwed up in my preview for this week’s Book of Doom. That gray-templed Superman is the Superman of the Kingdom Come universe, not Kal-L of Earth 2. But he is a sign of reviving a past storyline, and Justice Society of America #10 is the beginning…
Doom DeLuise mentioned it in his Countdown review this week, but nearly two years ago, Fin Fang Doom presented you dear Doomkopf readers with Crisis on Infinite Titles, his ambitious theory on the secret behind Infinite Crisis. Much of it turned out to be wrong, but in other ways, he was way ahead of his…
DOOM NOTE: By the time this week’s Doomino Effect rolls around, Halloween will be long gone. There’s enough to talk about with this book – and still a few hours left in the day – so here’s what will likely be a one-time only single issue review. I’m a big fan of short stories –…
I have to confess, I haven’t done the Doomino Effect in a while. Actually, I probably don’t even need to confess. The fact that there weren’t any Doomino Effects on this site the past few weeks pretty much points a finger at me. I’m not a big fan of “Sorry I haven’t posted more!” posts,…
Last I knew, Earth-2 Superman was dead – a victim of Infinite Crisis, and more specifically, Superboy-Prime’s fists. But if the past year or so of DC Comics has taught us anything, it’s that what was old is new again, and what happened as a result of Infinite Crisis apparently doesn’t really matter because writers…
