Frankenstein Agent of S.H.A.D.E. #1
It amuses me how The Man From U.N.C.L.E. is still influencing the naming of “secret agencies”, so many still have periods after every letter, sometimes meaning each letter represents a word, sometimes just making fun of the trope. They’ve combined … Continue reading

Grifter #1
I never read Grifter before this issue. It was a Wildstorm comic and I didn’t read many of those. Grifter was a character I only encountered when he appeared in other titles, and I didn’t start reading any Wildstorm titles … Continue reading
Demon Knights #1
Etrigan the demon gets his own series. Paul Cornell is writing it, so that is in its favor. If anyone can write this as more than just the mystical blather the character has been infused with since his creation, it … Continue reading

Deathstroke #1

Batwoman #1
Batwoman is a relatively new character, only a few years old. This incarnation anyway, previously Batwoman was a 1950s character that was referenced over the years, but was mostly discarded and forgotten. She’s a popular new character though and so … Continue reading
Omac #1
OMAC or O.M.A.C. to be more traditional is originally a creation of Jack Kirby when he was at DC Comics. O.M.A.C. stood for One Man Army Corps and took place in a dystopian future. We’ll have to wait to see … Continue reading
Static Shock #1
I’m not sure why, but Static Shock seems much more cartoony than the other reboot titles I’ve read so far. It could be the art or it might be the fact that I first encountered Static through cartoons. Static originally … Continue reading
Stormwatch #1
Stormwatch seems to be a reboot of the title The Authority. They’ve monkied around with it a little, throwing in the Martian Manhunter for some reason. I suppose they didn’t want the Martian Manhunter in the Justice League because he’s … Continue reading
