Johnny Worthless Reviews Comics

Hello People of the Internets! Got Five on the List Today! Here we go...







Everyone's favorite five year old book, Justice League # 3! Cool Cover, very busy, there's a lot going on. Line of the night came very early on with, "Has anyone seen a Harpy?". That wouldn't be beat. It's cool WW has a short sword. Sups, Barry, Hal, and Bruce have a couple pages of fighting 'Para-demons', which was great to see just them together. As a whole the book went fast. Hopefully there is some BIG-TIME action next issue.



For Fans of... Cramming as many heroes in one book, Origin Stories, Jim Lee




Batman #3. Awesome Cover, Go Capullo! (Artist if you didn't know) This story is phenomenal. Scott Synder Rules! There was ZERO fluff or BS in this entire book, every inch served the story (Poe would be proud). MUST BUY. You can even start with this issue if you can't find issues 1 or 2 (although they go over what has happened in the past two issues in this one). Go pick this book up now.


For Fans of... Batman being smarter than you, Batman not knowing something, Scott Synder



Next at Bat! (HA!) Catwoman #3. Excellent book, very touching, it really delves into Selina. It's a Catwoman character study. Big fan of the heavy in this issue, not sure if he is new or not but he's cool. Also she doesn't don the Cat-Suit mask the entire issue, pretty sweet if you ask me. This is a much more mature series then the Balent years or the last run of Catwoman. Great book, Winick is hitting them out of the park so far with this one.


For Fans of... Selina, Fast Cars, Tough Chicks, Mobsters, Cats



Birds of Prey #3 followed on the pile. Intro! Nice! Now I know who everyone is. Interior Art was A++. CAT-FIGHT!!! So what we have here is the completed team of the Birds? I'm thinking yes? Only time will tell. I will keep reading this series due to the great renderings of the Feathered Femme Fatales and Starling. Do I know her? Have we met before? Is she new? I need to know more. And when does Babs come around again?



For Fans of... Hot Chicks, Black Canary, but mainly Hot Chicks



At the bottom of the stack, Nightwing #3. Not a fan of this cover. It's not bad, it's just not great. Got to see Nightwing in action doing some classic Nightwing stuff. ( I think that is my favorite sentence I've written thus far. ) The art was good, except for a weak Splash page at the end. Not a lot of new information in this issue, just fleshing out of the story. Can't wait to see Dick and Babs together, there is a crossover happening somewhere I'm just not sure of the order of things. Hopefully they make out.



For Fans of... Dick Grayson, The Circus, Bearded Ladies








Sidebar... I'm really hoping that Nite-wing doesn't exist in the new DCU, And if he does I hope he meets a swift ending. There was SO much time wasted in the 1st Nightwing ongoing series it made me sick. It still does to think about it.


That's it for today folks!
