New comics

Battle Beast 2

This is just beautifully drawn and stupid fun.

Absolute Batman 10

The indomitability of Batman is on full display here.  It’s stunning to behold, a wonderful issue from Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta.

Wonder Woman 23

Tom King introduces us to the creepy inner workings of Mouseworld (or whatever it’s called).  All setup for what’s to come.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 10

More setup, this time getting us to a satisfying final splash page of April O’Neal dressed in Casey Jones’s mask beating the crap out of some soldiers.  Two more issues of this before Jason Aaron, and probably me, take off.

Krypto: The Last Dog of Krypton 2

Turns out Lex is a shitty dog owner.  Who would have thought?

Absolute Flash 5

I’m worried that I’m only sticking around because of the “Absolute” on the title.  This isn’t bad, but is it really good enough to keep reading?  Maybe a few more issues.

Detective Comics 1099

Old school in the sense that it’s a solid, self-contained arc that leaves Batman where he started with no real consequences.  At least Lee Garbett’s art is still great.
