As I sat down to write the preview to this week’s Book of Doom, I honestly thought to myself, “What have I done?” (and then I typed it). When it’s my turn to pick, I try to pick something I’m unfamiliar with, but also something that has a chance of being liked. This usually means…
What have I done? In celebration of my 100th post here at the Legion of Doom, I have chosen Sub-Mariner #1 for our weekly Book of Doom, that’s what! I don’t know if it’ll be good, and I don’t even know anything about it to be honest, but some of us here at the Legion…
It’s Saturday once again, which means it’s time for the Legion’s weekly Book of Doom review. Our featured book this week is Invincible #42, written by Robert Kirkman with art by Ryan Ottley and Bill Crabtree. The issue is being billed as “New Reader Friendly,” and the five of us are in a position to…
“Ever thought about trying Invincible but just haven’t gotten around to it? Now is your chance! This special introductory issue — priced to sell — features the start of a brand new story-arc, and is an excellent jumping-on point for new readers. Also in this issue  a recap of the entire series from start…
In a strange coincidence, a couple weekends ago I was in Florida and my father-in-law broke out his quite amazing collection of ’60s and ’70s comics. The highlight, though, was the first issue of Silver Surfer, which established the creation of Mr. Shiny Britches and started his series of independent adventures. And now that’s all…
We’re steady at work here, doing our damnedest to replace the saying “another day, another dollar” with the much more flavorful “another week, another Book of Doom.” C’mon, popular vernacular, you know you want to spice things up! In that vein, this week we Doomers are going to be tackling Silver Surfer: Requiem, the new…
Welcome to this week’s edition of our weekly roundtable discussion of the newest issue of Wonder Woman, a tie-in to the current big event Amazons Attack! This week, the Legion is joined by special guest reviewer The Fortress Keeper from The Fortress of Fortitude. Overall, the issue seems to have caught all of us off…
It’s that time of the week again. Time to choose this week’s Book of Doom. As you can tell by the title of this post, if you’re one of the types who actually reads headlines, we’ve decided to pick “Wonder Woman #9.” In case you haven’t been paying much attention to Wonder Woman lately, there’s…
It’s our tribute to the notoriously delayed, yet finally released comic books of last week, as yesterday we took on Ultimates 2 #13 and today it’s time for All-Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder. I stopped reading ASSBAR after issue 2 or 3 when I just felt offended to be paying money for stupid…
There’s just too much this week. We took on two books at once, and there was just too much reviewing and writing to do, so we only got one done. I read on the internet that Doom DeLuise was almost done with his review, but then I read somewhere else that he isn’t…but the next…
