Lois & Clark Rule This Week in DC

February 25, 2016Corrina Lawson

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 […]

DC Bombshells: The Perfect Stocking Stuffer

December 23, 2015Corrina Lawson

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.

‘Batgirl #45’: A Sea Change For DC on LGBT Weddings

October 28, 2015Corrina Lawson1

In 2013, Batwoman writer and artist J.H. Williams III quit the comic, citing that DC would never allow Kate Kane and Maggie Sawyer to be married as one of the major reasons for his departure. “We were told to ditch plans for Killer Croc’s origins; forced to drastically alter the original ending of our current arc, […]

Rape by Deception in ‘Aquaman #44’ is Poorly Handled

If you’re going to include rape in a story, don’t toss it in there in a sexy sequence.

GeekDad Interviews ‘Grayson’ Writers Tim Seeley and Tom King

June 3, 2015Raymond Masters

‘Grayson: Agents of Spyral’ contains the first four issues of the series, plus the ‘Futures End’ tie-in and a story from ‘Secret Origins’ issue eight. I was really surprised by the story after having read it. The writers were true to the character, making him boyish and happy-go-lucky. He was still high-flying and quick with a quip. He still kicked major butt. He was the same Dick Grayson who has been a fan-favorite for these past 75 years.

The Greatest Show on Earth

January 16, 2012Dakster Sullivan7

Did you know the term geek originated from the circus? It was originally used to describe “a performer engaging in bizarre act.” Even some of our comic book heroes owe their look and some abilities to the circus. Dick Grayson is a perfect example. Before his parents died, his family was the circus. The skills […]
