This week, Batgirl hits 50, Peter J. Tomasi hit two runs this week with his work on Superman and Batman: Detective Comics, and I became distracted by Mikel Janin’s art on Superman. So pretty.

Secret Six guest-starring Batgirl is bittersweet this week and, meanwhile, Midnighter hops around the DC Universe. (But not to fight Deathstroke, thankfully.)

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow gets a comic, sorta. Meanwhile, Martian Manhunter is the best comic SF epic you’re not reading. That and more reviews of this week’s DC Comics.

This is an odd week for DC. First, an alternate universe story featuring classic Lois & Clark is our favorite, Frank Miller seems to have a more hopeful view of superheroes than many of DC’s current comics, Neal Adams goes back to 1970s style storytelling and the big Darkseid War saga is falling flat, even […]

What else should you grab? If you like horror, Swamp Thing. Batgirl fans, the new issue is out and Black Canary’s back.

This week’s favorites feature women. Cassandra Cain is spotlighted in Batman and Robin: Eternal, Lois is the co-lead in Superman: Lois & Clark, and Black Canary, of course. Sadly, Superman/Wonder Woman and the Wonder Woman title suffer by comparison.

DC Bombshells is spectacular this week, as is the final issue of Gotham by Midnight, Ray and myself are in love with the Titans Hunt series (the less said of the regular Titans series, the better), The Robin War zooms toward an ending, Bryan Hitch gives us spectacular splash pages in Justice League of America, and Dark Knight III: The Master Race goes in an unexpected direction.
