The Spotlight...
- APR090480 AVENGERS INITIATIVE #25 DKR $2.99
After being abandoned, it looks like the Shadow Initiative is about to be embraced by the corrupted regime of Norman Osborn and his Dark Reign! I guess when you're as cuckoo for coco puffs as Osborn you can never quite have enough private assassination squads, and in Taskmaster he gets a fine mercenary leader to add to his squad of Dark Avengers, Thunderbolts, and Hood underlings! It's another interesting beat for a book that's managed to walk that fine line between being directly connected to the on-going escapades of the Marvel Universe, and being very much it's own comic full of great characters.
- APR090494 DAREDEVIL #119 $2.99
On his way out, Ed Brubaker is really restoring Daredevil to the prominence of his entry as Return of the King ramps up toward it's big conclusion! It's tough to not look forward to a fresh influence on the character who undeniably lost some of his lustre under the last creative team(s), but there's enough here to really savor what this regime has been able to do. It looks like Andy Diggle will be bringing Daredevil back into the Marvel Universe, which is something that will no doubt garner resentment from some readers, but has the potential to really shake off the dust and freshen up this much loved character. He's been away cornered-off from the Marvel Universe for the bulk of the decade, so there's a lot of fertile ground there for the gradual intrusion of Dark Reign and the return of history [Hawkeye].
- APR090152 DETECTIVE COMICS #854 $3.99
I can't actually remember the last time Batman wasn't a regular in Detective Comics, but I'm all for the change! Detective continues the Reborn revamp with a striking redefinition of one of DC's longest running titles, replacing the Dark Knight detective with his female equivalent - Batwoman. Those of you trained on the mainstream will remember Batwoman as the much hyped debuting character from 52, who went on to do very little more than be publicized for being gay. The mistakes of the past will presumably be resolved as writer/creator, Greg Rucka, gets the opportunity to stretch the Batwoman's wings in her first starring solo-series. Unsurprisingly, The Question (Renee Montoya) will also return alongside her ally in the Co-Feature that finally returns back-up material to Detective Comics! Shame about the price, but considering the stunning visuals of JH Williams, I'll forgive it. Seriously, you could buy this thing for the art alone -- something I'm not especially prone to considering!
- APR090158 GOTHAM CITY SIRENS #1 $2.99
The cancellation of Catwoman earlier in the year was an absolute disappointment, but a decision that felt like it were part of a bigger picture. I'd like to think Gotham City Sirens was always part of the plan, delivering the continuation of Catwoman's adventures as told in the post-RIP interim in Batman and Detective Comics. Sirens, just like those tales, were handled by fan-favourite writer Paul Dini, who'll reunite with Catwoman, Poison Ivy, and Harley Quinn, to produce a series sure to set fans of Batman: The Animated Series atingle with anticipation! I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling a little bit cynical, particularly with the gratuitous penchant for ass shots cover artist Guillem March has shown, but the excitement begun with Batman & Robin has permeated through the diversity of the Reborn line-up.
- APR090183 GREEN LANTERN #42 $2.99
We're just a month away from the big event! Blackest Night is right around the corner, but before we have desert, we've got to eat our greens. Or at least, that's the case for Larfleeze -- possessor of the orange light of avarice! The introduction of the spectrum has gotten a little cramped as Geoff Johns fills the space between the GL #25 2007 teaser and the 2009 event, but we've got the information we need to move forward. Hard to ignore the theory that Hal Jordan will save the day in BN with a combination of the powers of light, but it's just a little too obvious for my liking.
Hey, Larfleeze wants everything!Maybe he's the key!
- APR090457 NEW AVENGERS #54 DKR $3.99
For years Brother Voodoo was a bit of an in-joke amongst online punters and fans of Fred Hembeck, but lo and behold, Marvel are finally going to make good on what those fans want! Since hitting fifty issues it really feels like Brian Bendis has just finally started to deliver on the Avengers comic he was always supposed to be writing. Dark Reign weighs heavily on the title, but unlike distracted issues based on Civil War and other stories, this is a book that is all about it's own story. Dr. Strange, Son of Satan, and Dormammu are an exciting list of guest stars as the Secret Avengers clash with The Hood to prevent the forces of evil taking possession of the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme -- destined to be Brother Voodoo's!
