The Flash #28 is a very well-balanced comic. It is a carefully constructed concoction of character study, action, and intrigue.

JLA #12 is charming, but its pacing issues are abysmal. If you aren't attached to the characters, the slowness of the plot will likely drive you away.

Mister Miracle #1 is ambitious, unique, and draws you in. It has some surface-level flaws that drag it down, but it's worth your time to check it out.

Since the start of Rebirth, DC has yet to cancel a single ongoing title An impressive feat in the modern comic book industry. Last month, however, Bleeding Cool speculated that Blue Beetle could be the first, after Christopher Sebela made the following comments about taking over as writer on the book: I guess this is officially out[...]

This past week's Superman #28 and Batman #28 both look at war in a way. They approach it in similar fashion, but display it in completely different manners.

Sales of DC titles during the early months of the reboot were up, though they eventually dwindled, necessitating the thinly veiled apology known as DC Rebirth But it seems that the make-up sex may not be quite as good as the break-up sex, according to DC Co-Publisher Dan DiDio. In an interview with ICv2, DiFio talked[...]

Green Lanterns #28 effectively expands the cosmic lore of the Green Lantern Corps, and the series continues to be a joyous and exciting ride.

Deathstroke is quickly becoming one of my favorite DC titles. It is interesting, the story is layered very well, and Deathstroke is a fascinating anti-hero.

Nightwing #26 is a great entry into the saga of Nightwing. It has action, character, and a fantastic guest star in Huntress to balance out the hero himself.

Superman #28 is pretty U.S-specific in its content, but if you can get on board with some payment of respect to veterans, then you might enjoy this comic.

In Batman #28, despite the awesome guest stars of Deathstroke and Deadshot, they don't get enough time on the page and the story feels rushed.

With the story set to reveal one of the biggest mysteries of the DC Rebirth universe soon arriving, DC have revealed that Action Comics will be getting their favourite treatment for big stories: lenticular covers. The Oz Effect, starting in September in Action Comics by Dan Jurgens and Viktor Bogdanovic, promises to reveal the identity of[...]

Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps continues its hot streak with another incredibly issue that promises many great future issues.

However, it has side effects, and Wonder Woman has to fight Crawford to save her life. Greg Rucka revitalized the Wonder Woman comic in DC: Rebirth, and Shea Fontana is showing to be more than capable of carrying the torch This is a powerful and emotional issue that shows how and why Wonder Woman is different[...]

I haven't gotten to review a Flash comic yet, though. One of the reasons I hadn't covered an issue of the Flash comic yet was that, much as I hate to say it, I didn't find the Rebirth title to be all that good or interesting for a portion of its run The title had taken a[...]

It’s disappointing to say, but Blue Beetle #11 is a very disposable issue. It is glacially slow, and it wraps up a story that was pretty much over already.

I continue to hold that this is the best comic of Rebirth, and everyone should give it a try. [rwp-review-ratings id="0"] [rwp-review-form id="0"] [rwp-review-recap id="0"] Having been defeated and cast out by Volthoom, the First Lantern, Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz are split up and in a place they don't recognize Simon's Ring was destroyed by Volthoom, so[...]

This is easily one of the best Green Arrow issues of Rebirth It's got action, it's got heart, and it's got Green Arrow being a loudmouth liberal What more do you need from a Green Arrow comic? Also, you can probably enjoy this if you're a conservative, too — unless you endorse murder or needless war[...]

Aquaman #26 is a fantastic comic book. The art is gorgeous, the story is enthralling, and the characters are engaging. You should be reading this.

This comic is absolutely incredible. It’s easily among the best issues of Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps to have been released.

Titans #13 is a rocking, action-packed issue to compensate for the previous issue’s slow-moving and character-focused pacing.

All-in-all, Dark Days: The Casting's story is more focused than 'The Forge', the art didn’t hop around as badly, and it introduced some interesting ideas.

The beginning of DC Universe: Rebirth is a recent example that comes to mind The Watchmen implications, the return of Wally West, promising the return of the Justice Society as we know it — all of these things resonated with a lot of readers Sure, a couple of those promises haven't solidified yet (such as[...]

I know, Rebirth is something of a reboot However, it still just adds unneeded complexity to something with a history already loaded with endless plot threads and godlike beings. What interested me the most was the reveal that one of the first Green Lanterns was the first plant elemental It seems to be following up on[...]

The threat in this comic doesn’t seem menacing enough to warrant both Green Arrow and the Flash; however, the team chemistry keeps it entertaining.

Legendary Batgirl, Secret Six, Birds of Prey, and Wonder Woman writer Gail Simone took to Twitter today in discussion about the New 52 and film origins

I have a feeling one of the more interesting early Rebirth stories is about to play out here. [rwp-review-ratings id="0"] [rwp-review-form id="0"] [rwp-review-recap id="0"] After renouncing the identity of Deathstroke in the wake of his failed attempt to go back in time and save his son, Slade Wilson has had something of a religious experience — which has[...]

Nightwing #24 features a giant submarine with Nightwing outwitting a bunch of supervillains inside. What more could you want?

Cyborg #14 is a fun read. The characters are likable, and the story has a good amount of 80s techno-futurism to keep the reader interested.

Overall, Batman #26 was definitely better than #25. It had more interesting character moments with the villains, and it did less to actively frustrate me.
