Writer: James Robinson Artist: Nicola Scott Back in September, DC Comics launched a wave of new number one issues. This would be called ‘The New 52’ and would give old and new audiences an easy access point to the vast catalogue of DC Comics.

Review Shooter: Suicide Squad 2
Writer: Adam Glass Artist: Federico Dallocchio & Andrei Bressan Making a villain-centric project is always a tough endeavor. You risk losing your audience if the characters are completely irredeemable and unrelatable, but at the same time, you risk softening them up too much to the point they are no longer villains. Gail Simone’s Secret Six was a perfectly …

Review Shooter: Grifter 2
Writer: Nathan Edmonson Artist: Cafu The success or failure of DC’s New 52 initiative can be measured in multiple ways. I will leave the number-crunching, and spinning to the expert. On a personal level, I consider it a success for opening up the DC Universe to me. While we had great issues of Batman, Superman, …

Review Shooter: Green Lantern 2
Writer: Geoff Johns Artist: Doug Mahnke The more things changes, the more they stay the same. Seems to be a motto that can usually be fitted across comic-dom. Death is never permanent. Sidekicks take over for heroes before the heroes return to their original costume. Teams are re-arranged and then re-united. So it should come …

Review Shooter: Swamp Thing 2
Writer: Scott Snyder Artist: Yanick Paquette (Review by Ryan Hancock) Swamp Thing #2. Wow. Just simply, wow. Scott Snyder will never cease to amaze me.

Review Shooter: Green Arrow 2
Writer: J.T Krul Artist: Dan Jurgens and George Perez Green Arrow 1 was an interesting book in the initial New 52 month, as far as I could tell, I was one of the people who really enjoyed the tale. A younger, more hip Oliver Queen was on-board, and the story was a much lighter-fare than …

Review Shooter: I, Vampire
Writer: Joshua Hale Fialkov Artist: Andrea Sorrentino It seems impossible to have a vampire story without romance these days. I, Vampire is no exception (though it is a title originally from the 80s, so the only bandwagon jumping it’s committing is to be relaunched at this present time). What helps though is that these are …

Review Shooter: Voodoo 1
Writer: Ron Marz Artist: Mani Basri I feel like a review should reflect your opinion of a product, and should at times put in as much as the product put out. That said, Voodoo really did very little for me. I mean the comic boils down to like 75% of the main character stripping or …
