NEW 52 REVIEW: Batman: The Dark Knight #1
Fear is a cannibal that feeds upon itself. For DC Comics, that fear is the success or failure of the big relaunch we’ve been covering for the last month or so. Batman faces his fears, and Two-Face in Batman: The Dark Knight #1.
NEW 52 REVIEW: Superman #1
Superman has been called The Man of Tomorrow. In Superman #1, writer George Perez is focused on transforming him into the Man of Today. He’s back in his own #1 issue by virtue of DC’s new relaunch. Clark Kent is much younger than we remember, and his place in the world in and out of the costume is different in this new continuity. How successful is Perez at bringing Superman into the world of 2011? Take the jump and be prepared to share in my disappointment.
NEW 52 REVIEW: Teen Titans #1
Kid Flash Fact: Fire’s bad, Red Robin’s good, and Cassie doesn’t want to be called Wonder Girl. Can Scott Lobdell and Brett Booth convince this reader that Tim Drake should have wings? Find out after the jump!
