Here Is Your Jetpack – The Five Years Later Future Of DC Comics Today, From Futures End, Action Comics, Aquaman, Detective Comics, Batwing, Green Lantern, Grayson, Green Arrow, Phantom Stranger, Swamp Thing and Earth 2
But it must have been something pretty bad. As Action Comics: Futures End #1 basically has him back to being a farmer And not one willing to use his superbreath to bring rain, or whatnot. Aquaman went to war with Earth 2 in Aquaman: Futures End, though at odds with his isolationist Atlantenas, things didn't go well… Batman[...]

Everyone loves that Helmet of Fate these days, don't they? Moving on… A Batman unmasking in Batman Eternal may get pageviews, but not as many as an iPhone 6 unboxing, surely? There are priorities. In Action Comics, Superman does his very best impression of the Hulk, as Superirl enables him Hmm… is it just me, of having Superman[...]

But sadly, as Action Comics #31 reveals, no it's not enough Nowhere near enough As the world gets a dusting of a certain green cloud – no, not the one from Marvel's Inhumanity, but a permeation of the atmosphere of kryptonite, it affects Superman in an unexpected way But he's not the only Kryptonian exposed,[...]
Silver for Timely's Golden Age and Gold for Marvel's Silver Age
The birth of Jerry Siegel and  Joe Shuster's Superman in Action Comics #1 laid the foundation for a formula that was emulated often in the Golden Age, and during the many decades that followed. In 1939, Batman first appeared in Detective Comics for National, Captain Marvel debuted in Whiz Comics for Fawcett Publications and Timely unleashed[...]

But the look of your space ship does matter quite a bit…       Starlight returns with its mashup of the old and the new and the way new used to look in the old. Triple rainbow! Wow! Triple rainbow! Amazing! Action Comics #30! Field #1 does a great trick of forced perspective to put as much spaces between two[...]

And certainly not expose it to young children. Well, in Darkness, even if you don't make friends, you certainly influence people. Sometimes you don't need to have someone say "fuck you, dickweed." Sometimes, as in Tales Of Honor, an expression says it all. Retcon alert! Retcon alert! Today's Nova shows us when the first Nova first met Beta[...]
Bleeding Cool's Best Comic Panels of 2013
And I just cannot ever take Reed Richards seriously as a character after panels like this one, from the wonderful and wonky Longshot Saves the Marvel Universe. From Action Comics #19, written by Andy Diggle, with art by Tony S Daniel I don't like Superman, it's a personal choice, but this is one hell of a statement[...]
Superman – Faster Than A Speeding Drone
Whether it's the US bombing Pakistan or everyday gun toting Americans threatening to blow Amazon's new delivery system out of the air, or toy drones as the hot toy for Christmas, all you need now is for a drone to start twerking with a chicken for a hat and the internet is over. Well, he may[...]
Anatomy Lessons – Action Comics #775
Brandon Thomas writes for Bleeding Cool: "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice, & The American Way?" by Joe Kelly, Doug Mahnke, and Lee Bermejo It's impossible to discuss this particular issue of Action Comics now without also discussing Man of Steel, so if you're one of the many (myself included) that found themselves often exhausted and[...]

And a trip into the kind of territory that the latest series of Black Mirror mined so well in its first episode. You know that website Superdickery? I think they just have a new entry, from Action Comics #25 Superman? What a dick. From Iron Man #18, possibly the line of the week I might[...]
Thirty-Four Thoughts About Thirty-Four Comics – Uber, Grindhouse, Garfield, Spawn, Mara, Lazarus, Mind The Gap, Fantomex, Action Comics, All New X-Men Special, Mighty Avengers, Infinity Hunt, Movement, Earth 2, The Star Wars, CBLDF Liberty Annual, Hinterkind, Witching Hour, Hit, Robocop, Todd The Ugliest Kid On Earth, Crossed Badlands, Superior Foes Of Spider-Man, Mighty Avengers, Detective Comics, Iron Man, Hunger, Bushido, Spera, Quantum And Woody, Shadowman, Suicide Risk, Bedlam And Occultist
He tried to return the character to its original Grant Morrison style, and must have succeeded because, well, FantoMAX (as we should call it) reads totally like a swearier Seaguy. Hey, after Villains Month had concluded, I thought we were done with the evils that parents do, for a little while at least? Anyway, this[...]
Could We Have A Zod Of The Jungle Spinoff Sometime?

And, you know, probably all protest, everywhere, everywhen. Pax Galactica bring out another Battlestar Galactica phrase to go with last month's "So say we all" for Action Comics. That's how evil Caldwell Industries are in Detective Comics… they experiment on children! To ensure the kids will be teased in playgrounds forever Is this the first DC[...]
