- MAR090132 BATMAN BATTLE FOR THE COWL #3 (OF 3) $3.99
The final chapter of this mini-Bat event promises to wrap up with a cagey reveal that we all know is coming. Best guess, you'll have to wait for Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely before you actually see Dick Grayson as the new Batman, but we'll almost certainly get something close to a reveal when he confronts rogue-ward and phony killer-Batman, Jason Todd. Can't help but feel this was an event we could've done without. Tony Daniels adds a mid-nineties awkwardness to the story's visuals and script with an aesthetic and pace that reminds us of the most frivilous moments in comics. It's not that I dislike this comic, but I doubt it's value at $3.99, and wonder whether or not it wasn't a good premise bungled into the short break between Morrison's ill defined conclusion to Batman RIP, and his seperatist Batman & Robin. Like Countdown was to Final Crisis; it feels a lot like a disassociated take on a story that Morrison didn't actually want to bother with. We'll see.- MAR090130 FINAL CRISIS AFTERMATH DANCE #1 (OF 6) $2.99
Still on Morrison; and after the massive mixed reviews of Final Crisis, the hype that accompanied the first few issues feels like a forgotten daydream. Some of the most exciting forethoughts came from the introduction of the Japanese heroes who worked with Sonny Sumo to bring an end to the darkest day on Earth. I really hope Sonny Sumo gets a chance to return to action, but I'm not sure if I should be expecting that. So far Aftermath series have been of varied quality, but you would expect Morrison-buddy, Joe Casey, to hook into the pop culture poseur cypher tapped in the original Final Crisis series.- MAR092552 PUNISHER #5 DKR $2.99
The Punisher's tour through the Marvel Universe continues as he stalks the top dog of the super-villain union, The Hood! Doubtful that he'll get very far, but anyone who saw the preview with ol' Frank utilizing the Ant-Man helmet (and presumably Pym particles) to great effect, will probably want to pick this up. Seems like the series will be touch and go, struggling with the old issue of throwing a murderous vigilante into a world where characters are essentially kept immortal by corporate necessity. As far as Dark Reign tie-ins go, it's making good use of the landscape, despite being utterly incidental.- MAR092607 X-MEN FOREVER ALPHA $4.99
Everybody knows by now that the X-Men are the trashy corner of the Marvel catalogue. History has been a monkey on the back of the X-Men books, whose fans ensure a minimum bouyancy of sales, regardless of the quality of the books. Grant Morrison was once again the catalyst for positive change, but when his work was demolished upon departure, the X-books began a slide toward utter mediocrity as evolution was sacrificed to try to create a nostalgic rerun of past glorys. Chris Claremont attempts to literally go home again as he picks up where he left off in the original Jim Lee early nineties revamp of the title, which veered off after disagreements saw him leave after the third issue. X-Men Forever promises to be another hideous failing for the once dominant brand, but at $4.99, Alpha is well worth the cost to relive the past in it's own context. Reprinting X-Men #1-#3; this is a chance for those who missed out to get a grasp of one of the last defining moments in X-history. A decent enough Magneto story with all the underpinnings of what gave us the legendary nineties cartoon series and created a cross-media phenomenon. To this date, X-Men #1 is still one of the highest selling single issues ever. So give it a go, but do so with appropriate context.
