ComicBook CliqueComment

When one of Batman’s most famous stories gets an animated adaptation, you KNOW Major Issues is on the case! Based on the Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee story of the same name written in 2003, Batman Hush takes Bruce Wayne back to his detective roots, and does its best to honor the source material while offering fresh surprises for those who follow the comics.

There is still the Catwoman /Batman action the story is famous for, with some added twists and turns along the way. In the film, Batman’s enemies are acting stranger than usual, and a mysterious bandaged puppet-master seems to be at the center of the chaos. Featuring cameos from the greatest rogue gallery in comic book history, a love affair between masked vigilantes, and some painful blasts from the past, can the World’s Greatest Detective solve this increasingly personal puzzle and find love?

ComicBook CliqueComment

What happens when you mix the best and brightest superheroes in DC’s pantheon with the very real ramifications of dealing trauma and mental health? You get Tom King’s 9 issue limited series entitled Heroes in Crisis. King, a former CIA agent in his own right is no stranger to subjects like PTSD, but how does his brand of storytelling gel with the rest of the DC Universe?

Follow along as we talk about Sanctuary, a safe haven for all heroes dealing with trauma. When multiple heroes turn up dead, it’s up to the Justice League to find the culprit in a story that tries to show us a different side of our favorite caped characters. Did King’s message come through? What does HIC say about mental health? We talk all that and more in our review of Heroes in Crisis!

The second installment of Holland’s web-slinging hero brings back the heart, humor, and spectacle of the first whilst turning the knob on the stakes way up. Now that MCU's Spider-Man has swung back into theaters and into our hearts, was the film any good?

FFH follows Tom Holland aka Peter Parker tries to navigate life post Avengers:Endgame. For the first time since his introduction, Spider-Man seems to not want the responsibility placed on him as the “next Tony Stark”, he just wants to be a regular kid. Luckily, on a tour of Europe, he finds a mentor in the form of Quentin Beck’s Mysterio, but as we learn in Far From Home, things are more than likely not what they seem!
