Or – “It IS A Little Weird That Teenagers Killing Each Other Is A Genre Now…”

There has been quite a bit of fury aimed at this book, seeing as how we’ve taken a large number of Marvel characters, some with full-fledged back-stories and fans, and pitted them against one another in a head-to-head deathmatch, all orchestrated by a version of Arcade fully unlike any we’ve seen before…  Will this issue finally pull back the shroud of what’s REALLY going on, or just more bodies added to the count?  Your Major Spoilers review awaits!

REVIEW: The Ravagers #12 (of 12)

Posted on by

Or – “The Title That Embodied What I Find Wrong With The Post-Flashpoint DCU.”

When this book debuted, I had a moment of interest upon hearing that it would be relaunching parts of the New Teen Titans with parts of Gen 13, two books that were occasionally awesome in their original incarnations.  Things quickly turned sour for me, for a number of reasons (many related to Howard Mackie) and I dropped the book before issue #4.  Will this final issue satisfactorily wrap things up with a big ol’ bow?  Your Major Spoilers review awaits!
