REVIEW: DC Universe Presents #19 (of 19)

Or – “Say What You Will About WTF Month, But That Cover Is SERIOUSLY Goofy-Looking…”

When the New 52 kicked off, I was happy to hear that they had an anthology title in the mix, allowing us to see characters other than Superman, Batman and Catwoman once in a while.  Now, the grand experiment comes to an end and the cover promises a crossover between the present-day Justice League and Sword and Sorcery’s Beowulf.  What’s the deal with all that, you ask (assuming you’re Jerry Seinfeld?)  Your Major Spoilers review awaits!

REVIEW: Sword Of Sorcery #3

Posted on by

Or – “By The Honor Of Purple-Skull!”

Sword of Sorcery is one of the most unusual titles in DC’s current line-up, combining a revamped version of the Princess of The Gemworld with futuristic tales of Beowulf, sharing only a sort-of medieval viewpoint between them.  Of course, skilled execution can make anything work, but is this issue a razor-sharp sword or a broken shield of wood?  Your Major Spoilers review (and possibly more tortured metaphors) await!

The creative team from last year’s hit series FRANK FRAZETTA’S DEATH DEALER team up to tell the story behind of one FRAZETTA’s most famous paintings: The Silver Warrior! North of Iparsia, there is a land of frost known as Icevald. Akrila Sangrilak, the Silver Warrior, has watched over this land for decades, but now a deadly threat from beyond Icevald’s shores threatens the entire continent! Critically acclaimed novelist and comics writer Joshua Ortega (GEARS OF WAR, THE NECROMANCER) teams up with superstar artists Nat Jones (SPAWN: THE DARK AGES, ROB ZOMBIE’S THE NAIL) and Jay Fotos (BEOWULF, ‘68) to bring you the first SILVER WARRIOR tale worthy of FRANK FRAZETTA’s blessing–this one’s been approved every step of the way by the Master himself!

DECEMBER 3 • 32 PAGES • FC • $3.99
