Forever Evil by Geoff Johns and David Finch – A Book Review
This book is the culmination of years’ worth of storytelling. Truly, it is the result of multiple plots nurtured since The New 52’s dawn. Did it satisfy? Yes. Without spoiling too much, the events of Trinity War led to Forever Evil, which means that the Justice Leagues are incapacitated. Save Batman and Catwoman, they are…

Aquaman Confirmed For Batman v. Superman, and You Better Not Laugh!

52: Volume I – A Graphic Novel Review
I’ll admit it, I read every spoiler of this series on a weekly basis. I know how it ends, but even that did not diminish the sheer pleasure I derived in reading 52: Volume I. Reading the collected edition of this series cannot possibly mimic the experience of reading it on a weekly basis, but…
