DC To Publish Only One Comic At The End Of August

May 15, 2011 | | Comic News

I think that this is a clever idea from DC in terms of creativity and bringing something different to comics
In
terms of business, and making money it is probably not the soundest
because selling just one book vs Marvel who is just pumping out as many
books as they can in a month might be bad, but I applaud DC for trying something
new and giving their book the attention it deserves.

Moriarty: The Dark Chamber #1 – Review

May 15, 2011 | Nicole D'Andria | Comic Reviews

London town has always been the perfect setting for a good detective story and this spin-off from Sherlock Holmes into the world of his arch-nemesis Moriarty is an interesting one that leaves something to be desired, but still makes me want to continue reading. It is the early eighteenth century in London and Sherlock Holmes’ archenemy Moriarty has lost his motivation to rule the underworld after Holmes’ death. His fall from power has given rise to another dark organization The Black Hand, which has recently killed Arch Duke Ferdinand. Moriarty’s services as a detective are soon requested and he is brought back into the action when the English Secret Service asks him to find Sherlock Holmes’ brother.

Adventure Comics #526′s FLASHPOINT Pages?! Geoff Johns Creates Flash Red

May 13, 2011 | | Comic News

I read this news article and I thought. Does this really work? Does the Flash need another color of Flash? I am sure that Geoff Johns will try and make this concept work, but for me it doesn’t seem like a really good idea. This may have worked great in Green Lantern since there powers are based of emotions, but Flash power is not based on will or emotions, there just a really cool power that he inherited. Lets see if Johns can capture ligthing in a bottle again with this idea. Below are some pages that elude to what might be a different color of Flash.
