Review: Wonder Woman: Amazons Attack collected hardcover (DC Comics)
It's something of an understatement that a lot of people didn't like Wonder Woman: Amazons Attack (and some of them even let writer Will Pfeifer know about it). I just read it, and I understand the outcry -- there's a lot wrong with this story. But if you ignore those shortfalls -- and I think... Read more...

Top Wonder Woman Trade Paperbacks
It's been a while since we've done one of our lists of top essential trade paperbacks (see our Superman and Batman lists), so here's a guide to Wonder Woman trade paperbacks. There's a good amount of modern Wonder Woman trade paperbacks out there, though they collect runs from just a couple of... Read more...

Review: Wonder Woman: Love and Murder collected hardcover (DC Comics)
In the "Keep a consistent creative team" versus "Ship the book late" debate, I tend to side with the creative teams. Though this meant something of a long wait for the collection of Wonder Woman: Who is Wonder Woman? (and an even longer wait for the Superman: Last Son hardcover), the consistency... Read more...

Trade Perspective: DiDio and the State of the DCU Wrap-Up
[Contributions can be made in Michael Turner's name to The American Cancer Society.]My post the other day on what Dan DiDio's done right at DC Comics brought in a lot of great comments both here and at some of my favorite blogs, and it's given me a lot to think about regarding the state of DC...

Review: Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Heroes: The Quest for Cosmic Boy trade paperback (DC Comics)
Tony Bedard's Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Heroes: The Quest for Cosmic Boy is a surprisingly complex, well-crafted comic book story. Though Bedard has a significant comic-writing track record, the only story I'd read by him was a somewhat off-the-cuff issue of Legion in the Dominator War... Read more...

Trade Perspectives: What DiDio's done for DC
It's been a fascinating week in comics-news-dom with the rumors of Dan DiDio's firing. Rich Johnston at Comic Book Resources put it best that "based on nothing but fan discontent based on message board postings, this wishful thinking was whipped around the internet long enough until people...

Review: Helmet of Fate trade paperback (DC Comics)
If you're a big fan, perhaps, of the Golden Age characters reborn in the Helmet of Fate miniseries, you might find the trade paperback collection worthwhile. I'm not, and so while all the stories found here are entertaining in a Showcase or 80-Page Giant anthology type-way, I don't have much to... Read more...

Review: Shadowpact: Cursed trade paperback (DC Comics)
I read Bill Willingham's Shadowpact wanting it to be his Fables, and unfortunately, it's not Fables. Even as I enjoy Shadowpact, at times it's hard for me to believe this is the same writer as Fables, just as it was hard for me to believe during Willingham's run on Robin. Ultimately, however, I...

13 on Countdown ... Nah!
First, thanks to everyone who commented or emailed in support of Collected Editions' 13 on 52 series; Spacebooger most recently linked over, but I know there's been more. Writing the thirteen-word summaries fun and interesting and challenging, and I'm glad I undertook it.The obvious sequel would... Read more...

Review: Robin: The Big Leagues trade paperback
Reading Robin: The Big Leagues, I had an undeniable sense of the Tim Drake Robin character finally coming in to his own. The Big Leagues isn't perfect -- in fact, Robin: Teenage Wasteland is by far the more superior collection of Adam Beechen's Robin run -- but what Beechen establishes here in... Read more...

My Unsolicited Take on the Chuck Dixon/DC Comics Split
By now you've heard from any of a number of sources about Chuck Dixon's terse board message announcing his departure from DC Comics. I'm sure Mr. Dixon has his own reasons for the split, and the last thing he needs are uninformed knee-jerk opinions from some blogger (namely me). But ... if... Read more...
