Variants

McFarlane Toys again for variant covers on Batman / Superman: World's Finest #33, Action comics #1076, Titans #17. Lots of pretty good variants this week, but my favorite is undoubtedly Catwoman #70 by Frank Cho, followed very closely by the Watchtower Variants from Jorge Fornes, Lucio Parrillo, and Danny Earls.

Issues

Batman & Robin Year One #2 – Really good. 100% Samnee art. The dialog is great and it’s a really good story. 8.25/10

Batman Full Moon #2– Fantastic. Utterly fantastic. If anyone is telling you otherwise, well, the just aren’t right. The art and story and dialog are all spot on in this book. 8.5/10

Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter #5– Okay 5 issues in and I can officially say this without doubt. So far, Allwinter outshines the original story, and that original story was awesome… and… the art scheme. It sells it so much. Every sliver of the story is also being told in the art and the colors and if you aren’t reading it, I mean this, you are truly missing out. .. 8.5/10

Jenny Sparks #4– I really don’t know what I was expecting with this. At all. But it wasn’t this. I didn’t expect to like this. Here I am hating it. The art is really, really, really good. But that’s NOT Jenny Sparks OR Captain Atom. Again, it’s the art – 6.5/10

Wonder Woman #15 – Same as Jenny Sparks, but lower because this is canon, not Elseworlds. Great art. Awesome art. Really crappy story. 6/10

Milestone Universe-The Shadow Cabinet #1– So much in this issue! It really kicked this 4-issue mini off. There’s a lot to the issue, and it’s a good thing it has extra pages. I’m really looking forward to the next issue so we can find out more about what’s going on, and what will happen with the Blood Syndicate and where are the rest of the team? Man, I love Milestone. 8.5/10.
