March 12, the most recent comic book day, was my birthday. My wife took the day off to hang out with me, and one of the things to do on my list was go to the comic book store. I tried and I tried, and I could only find 3 comics I wanted to buy,…
If the competition for the year’s worst cover were held today, friends, you’ve got your winner right there. An expressionless Kyle Rayner throws up the weakest Green Lantern force field ever made, as Superman cracks down on it with an angry left hand (though he looks more constipated than angry), Wonder Woman shatters it with…
This weekly review is going to end with a plea. So sit tight. I didn’t do a Doomino Effect last week because Doom DeLuise started reviewing his weekly stash, and not only did he review every comic I bought last week, but I pretty much agreed with him. So in the interest of not making…
To start with, let me just say that the reason that title is so ridiculous is because, to be honest with you, I couldn’t think of anything good. I bought seven comic books this week, and I’m writing seven reviews of those comics. Happy? Overall, it was a fairly off week. Either that, or I’ve…

Oh, wait, silly me; they’re not actually in this issue. They’re just on the cover. I’m getting ahead of…
The Best Writer Award- Ed Brubaker If only three Ed Brubaker books came out every week. Captain America #35, Daredevil #105 and Criminal Vol. 2 #1 all come out this week, and not surprisingly, all of them were awesome. Daredevil was the conclusion to the Mister Fear arc, and what a conclusion it was. DD…
Hello, and welcome to the first ever alphabetical weekend review session with yours truly, Doom DeLuise. The idea is, I’m going to review all of my comics I bought last Wednesday in alphabetical order. I’ve also come up with a nifty grading system; in the spirit of alphabetizing, I’m going to give exceptional books a…
