I agree about Heartless. I forgot he was still in this series. I don't mind the slow build with Blockbuster. And the art is just amazing. I loved the 2 page spread of Nightwing leaping off a building with the city skyline behind him. Just gorgeous. I agree too.. been a great job having him simmering in the background.. it'll be something when the payoff happens. I absolutely LOVED the flashback sequence with Alfred standing up to Bruce.. fantastic stuff. |

Pick of the week: Alice Ever After #1 & 2A re-imagining of Alice in Wonderland. A dark and real world view of addiction and it's consequences. Alice first visited Wonderland as a child. Now grown up, it’s become her only escape from a cold, harsh world that feels even less real—a distant family, a tormented lover, and a father with secrets he’ll do anything to protect. But in order to return to her fantasy, Alice will need something much stronger than mushrooms. Cursed with a growing addiction, Alice is forced into the twisted underbelly of London and pulled ever further from reality. Writer/Artist Dan Panosian brings another dark book from Boom. His first book, A Kindness of Ravens, was a favorite of mine from 2020/21. Panosian draws the Wonderland segments while main artist Giorgio Spalletta draws the Victorian era Alice storyline. Dreamy, horrific. Alice in Wonderland meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.  I picked up the first two issues of this book this week and really enjoyed them. The art is gorgeous, and the story is of course familiar but at the same time, it has a new spin on it. Will be picking this up for the foreseeable future. |

I love his art a lot. It's really gorgeous stuff. |
