Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths Hardcover review by Raphael Borg

ReviewsJune 17, 20240Comments

Dark Crisis on Infinite Earths Hardcover by Joshua Williamson (Author), Daniel Sampere (Illustrator), Jim Cheung (Illustrator), Jack Herbert (Illustrator), Giuseppe Camuncoli (Illustrator) DC is well known for drastically shaking it's continuity in order to make a statement, and all in grand, spectacular narratives drawn by the likes of the late George Perez and his ilk. This, to some extent, is different yet similar. …

Dark Nights: Death Metal review by Raphael Borg

Dark Nights: Death Metal by Scott Snyder (Author), Greg Capullo (Illustrator) Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's Dark Knights: Death Metal is very much the sequel of its predecessor in all of its senses; it carries…

Dark Nights Metal review by Raphael Borg

Comics, ReviewsMay 9, 20220Comments

Scott Snyder is an acquired taste. He seeks to write as in a sub-textually meaningful way as Geoff Johns and Alan Moore with the cosmic scale of Grant Morrison, but more often than not just about missing the mark in being a little too ambitious and overt with his plans. Dark Nights: Metal is one such…

The Other History of the DC Universe review by Raphael Borg

Comics, ReviewsMarch 1, 20220Comments

What a beautiful, beautiful book. I have not said this about a book for a long time. I read good books; I read fun books, sure. But a beautiful one? Not since the Alex Ross books. And like Alex Ross and Kurt Busiek's Marvels, The Other History of the DC Universe seeks to make the history of…

Trinity review by Raphael Borg

Comics, ReviewsJune 22, 20210Comments

I must admit with all the buzz around Matt Wagner's Trinity when I was younger I expected something a little more along the lines of a reflection upon the relationship between DC's big three. It is by no means a bad read - it is, in fact, a swift read and keeps you engrossed all the…

Superman For All Seasons review by Raphael Borg

Comics, ReviewsJune 15, 20210Comments

Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale's "Superman For All Seasons" is best described, I believe, as a simple masterpiece. It doesn't try to be a grand story with sprawling action scenes or a mind-boggling thriller or a deconstruction of the Man of Steel. It is a simple retelling of a life, Clark Kent's early life as Superman…

Batman V Superman film review by Raphael Borg

Movies, ReviewsMarch 16, 20210Comments

The notoriously divisive Batman v Superman suffered a great disadvantage when it was released in the form it did in mainstream theaters; not that the ultimate cut was perfect, but some glaring plot holes were smoothed over far better in such a way that most fans - myself included - refuse to watch it in…

Final Crisis review by Raphael Borg

Comics, ReviewsJune 19, 20200Comments

Leave it to Grant Morrison to write about something as headache inducing as a murder mystery centred upon a multiversal godlike presence and the side effects of its dying body falling through time itself. As headache inducing as it might sound, having read through it, one easily appreciates Morrison's typical metastructural thinking and way of…

All-Star Superman review by Raphael Borg

Comics, ReviewsJune 19, 20200Comments

The greatest lie that has been told about any comicbook character is that Superman is boring. This book by, once again, Grant Morrison partnered with Frank Quitely, puts that idea to rest by putting Superman in an entirely new situation: Superman is dying, and what he does as a consequence of this is nothing short…
