Crisis in Infinite Comics

Kyle Garret: I didn't buy Crisis was it was coming out.  I started buying it a year later, only because I'd discovered Who's Who in the DC Universe and it was referenced repeatedly in every issue.  The death...

Michael Bettendorf: Crisis feels like a TV show that has gone on for 3 extra seasons. The heart of the story happened long ago, the major deaths (plot points) - you know, things people cared about - have...

Back again, my fine feathered friends, with more tie-ins for DC's big Crisis on Infinite Earths.  Theoretically, these comics should tie-in to issue #9 of the main series, but let's be honest: they don't. ...

Kyle Garret: If you were to point to any single issue in this series and say "here is evidence that Wolfman and Perez were tasked with showcasing as many characters as possible before most of them are erased,"...

Another issue of Crisis on Infinite Earths, another batch of tie-in issues.  But, hey, there's a legitimately great one in this group! All-Star Squadron #51 If Infinity, Inc. is Roy Thomas as your...

Ray Sonne: It is the 4th of July at the time of this writing and, for the record, I don’t feel as if I am living my free, independent life to the fullest by sitting inside and reading Crisis of Infinite...

Now we're cooking with gas! It took a while for DC to start cashing in on the "Crisis" brand, but in month #7, they started increasing the number of books with the "Crisis" banner, even though most were...

Jason Sacks: Oh, you with dead souls and lack of patience, I pity you. I truly do. Because those of you in the newcomers' camp who decry Crisis #7 for not being as good as Alan Moore's comics, well, I'm glad...

Ray Sonne: Funny how this never occurred to me before this issue, but...this comic is for children, right? It’s pre-Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns. It contains zero pacing, stumbling over itself in...

Yes, it has finally happened: at the halfway point of Crisis on Infinite Earths, we finally have official tie-ins! What's that saying?  Be careful what you wish for? There are two comics this month with...

Daniel Gehen: Why do I love comics? Because I like superheroes being heroic and things can be done in this medium that simply cannot be replicated to the same effect in other media. I find a crazy, fantastic...

Ray Sonne: Before we talk about Crisis on Infinite Earths, let’s talk about film. You ever wonder how Christopher Nolan films keep on getting nominated for stuff like Best Sound Editing even when special...

Daniel Elkin: … here we go again. Gin poured. Loins girded. Time to wade into another seemingly infinite cage housing this 5,000 pound drunken gorilla covered in scabies and smelling like sewage which, in...

I'm a completionist. I suppose we all are, to a certain extent.  It's part of the appeal/misery of reading comics.  Once we decide we love something, we completely invest ourselves in it.  Spider-man is...

Zack Davisson: Don't tell me I have to start this one off? Alright then. Let's do it. I've been reading the First Timer's Review, and something I can't help but notice is the difference in general tone. We...
