Batman: The Adventures Continue #1 – Review
The DCAU lives on! We return to the world of Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures in a new comic series – Batman: The Adventures Continue. With writers, Paul Dini and Alan Burnett returning, does the series add any value to the legacy of Batman: The Animated Series? Let’s find out! The timeline of this first issue is a little confusing. Lex Luthor is the main antagonist of this story arc, but the Justice League doesn’t seem to have been formed. It’s likely in-between TNBA and JL, but some inconsistencies also make that confusing. Anyways, we see Batman patrolling Gotham City, and all seems fine. However, we’re…

Killmonger is Getting His Own Prequel Comic From Bryan Edward Hill
I am Killmonger No one’s perfect But no one’s worthless We ain’t deserving of everything Heaven and Earth is But word is, good – Paramedic!, Kendrick Lamar feat. SOB X RBE When Black Panther hit theaters last February, audiences were captivated by the man, the myth, the legend, Michael B. Jordan Erik Killmonger. Killmonger was a hit with viewers because his moral center and ideals challenged the hero in a direct way. He was wrong when he was right, just when he was unjust, and flawed where he had been failed, and Jordan sold that arc with genuine gravitas and pathos (if it sounds like I’m stanning for that Oscars…

Review: EDENS ZERO Chapters 4-9
Due to life, collecting shiny star balls and a lot of turn-based situations, I haven’t been able to keep up with the reviews lately. Meaning this review will be an overall recap of chapters 4 through 9. In the words of Quentin Tarantino, spoken by Leonardo DiCaprio: “You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention.” The classical Hiro Mashima tropes remain in this manga, don’t get me wrong. But now, it starts to feel like its own story and a possibly a good one at that. I would argue that this could end up as his best work yet (Yes I will eat my words later if I have to).…

OPINION: Batman or Superman: Which Comic Should You Be Reading?
Right now, the two biggest superheroes in comics are Batman and Superman. One is what all of humanity should strive to be, and one is what a man could be he if dedicated all of his life on a singular goal to stop all crime. And dresses like a bat. They’re also the only two heroes with two separate comic books dedicated to them. You might also be able to count Spidey, but he has, like, ten of them all dedicated to different versions. Anyhoo, this is not an easy question. Both of these characters have A-list writers backing them, and are currently writing some amazing stories. But sadly, comics…

Review: EDENS ZERO Chapter 4
In Chapter four, we follow our protagonists searching for a professor called Professor Wize. But something is not like it first seems to be. This chapter is probably the best yet. It’s as simplistic as the previous one but yet had you leaving wanting for more like a good episode (or in this cause a chapter). You even get some small bit of knowledge of what is likely going to be the “Dragon Balls” of this franchise, which I certainly liked. If we get more chapters like this, this has strong chances to be something really good. I certainly hope that Hiro Mashima proofs me right that he is a…

Review: EDENS ZERO Chapter 3
I’m sorry about this late review. But life and the hottest summer in 260 years got the hold of me. With that said, let’s start it all. In this chapter, we get to know the “guild” that Rebeca is a member off and have Shiki join. If there is any chapter that makes this manga feel like Fairy Tail painted in science fiction color. The only difference is some slight change in the guilds behavior. However, there is a big difference between Edens Zero and Fairytail. Unlike Fairytail, Edens Zero has mystery building up since the first chapter, which has me somewhat intrigued. While the chapter isn’t bad, it’s nothing in…

Manga Review: BURN THE WITCH
Burn the Witch is the latest creation from the creator of Bleach, Tite Kubo. Here in this one shot, we follow Noel Niihashi, one of the many people that are fighting to protect dragons in the street of London. The first thing that makes Burn the Witch rather different to Bleach is the tone. Yes, the manga has some funny moments, but it’s closer to Attack on Titan than Dragon Ball in tone. Burn the Witch, on the other hand, is the reverse. It was a nice change of pace, considering what Kubo previously made. If you are a fan of Kubo’s earlier work, you will recognize it right away. Unlike…
