It was a good week to be a comic fan. The Next Batman #4, X-Men Legends #1, Wonder Woman #2, and Immortal Hulk: Flatline delivered a range of compelling stories.
Future State: Teen Titans #2 and the fantasy art ofStar Wars: The High Republic Adventures#1 shined, Dark Detective #3 delivered a unique take on Gotham City whileRadiant Black#1’s opening anthem hit a sour note.
In a relatable and fast-pacedFuture State: Superman of Metropolis#2, Sean Lewis and John Timms embrace the fact that Jonathan Kent will never replace his father as Superman, and instead finds a place as the Superman for a new era.
The Next Batman#3 premiered this week, and while the issue makes valid points about the modern justice system, John Ridley’s script tends to bash readers in the face with overt social commentary.
Future State: Aquaman#1 put a cosmic spin on an oceanic adventure while Black Panther battled a Phoenix-infused Man-Thing inAvengers#41. Check out today’s edition of Frankie’s Reviews.
