Comic Book Stash 1/10/2025

 By Mark Rodriguez

The first comic haul of 2025! We hit Third Eye Comics and grabbed six books this time around. I also got a classic comic from Hipcomics just in time.

Batman # 156- The story continues as we now know that Riddler somehow framed Gordon for the Mayor's murder. There's also a new hero in town, and there's also Bruce's mystery brother trying to take the majority in Wayne shares.

Batman # 156 Review

Batgirl # 3- Cassandra has to trust her mother, Lady Shiva as their adventures continue.

Batman Dark Patterns #2- Batman is after the Wound Man, a man incapable of feeling pain, but very capable of dishing it out.

Batman Dark Patterns # 2 

Two-Face # 2- Two Face deals with the divorce between the King and Queen of Hearts.

The Spectacular Spider-Men # 11- Peter and Miles deal with a new hero in town, Elemental.

All New Venom- # 2- After the Venom War ended, we continue with this series of the one and only Venom. I'll eventually get to this one and see who is Venom's new host.

Like previously mentioned, I recently ordered a comic that came just in time for this haul. After the last Two-Face comic I read, I was curious of what comics featured Mr. Zsasz in something other than random cameos in Arkham break outs. I found out that his first appearance was in Shadow of the Bat # 1 and I was able to get it for a good price. Shadow of the Bat was an additional series that ran alongside Batman and Detective comics back then, so I'll be checking those out too.

Arachna# 1 Review *Spoilers*

 By Mark Rodriguez Here's another awesome comic from independent artists that opened up an Indiegogo to get it started. I usually don't chip in unless it looks real good, like you just know they're gonna hit their goal. Arachna, a sexy superheroine with a split personality and an amazing art syle, sure looked like a good pick for me.  With lots of clever marketing in advance, even getting a person to dress as Arachna herself to bring the character to life, they hit their goal the same day they actually opened the Indiegogo for donations. I chipped in for the comic and the shirt, and here is my review on the latest superheroine that's bringing sexy back to comics, Arachna! Also note, while I'll try to keep my language as tame as I can, this book deals with way more adult stuff than I usually discuss on this blog. The Adventure Begins The issue opens with Jennie lying in bed naked in her apartment, a noticeable pile of sketches lying on the floor. She awakens to a voi...

SNK VS Capcom Chaos Volume 1

By Mark Rodriguez We'll be seeing a few crossovers this month, and we're gonna start with one based on a crossover videogame. If you think the Malibu SF comic series was kinda sloppy, this one was literally all action, pin ups and splash pages, and what little story in it is just plain weird. I'm talking about the SNK VS Capcom Chaos comics made by Happy Comics, translated by Japan and produced with supervision from both SNK Playmore and Capcom. But first a brief explanation on the game this was inspired from. In 2000, Capcom produced Capcom VS SNK Millenium Fight 2000 which would throw the fighters of Capcom and SNK at each other. Unfortunately, aside from Morrigan from Darkstalkers and Nakoruru from Samurai Shodown, the game felt more like Street Fighter VS King of Fighters. Capcom later made Capcom VS SNK 2 Mark of the Millenium with even more characters and variety as well as different modes of play. SNK made their own game, SNK VS Capcom Chaos and it offered a bit more...

Goshawk and Falconet # 1 (heavy spoilers so beware!)

 By Mark Rodriguez Brought to you by the same studios that brought you Arachna # 1 and 2, we get a brand new superhero duo, Goshawk and Falconet. Let's check it out. The story opens with Goshawk and Falconet soaring through the sky just above Santa Monica Bay. They fly towards a ship that is being robbed. Goshawk tells her to secure the cargo while he keeps the guards busy.  The robbers are working for a villain named Black Parrot. Goshawk lands between two of them and bashes their heads together. Just then a third man pulls a gun on him from behind. Goshawk retracts his wings which knocks the gun out of the man's hand. Goshawk knocks the guy out while Falconet kicks the guy protecting the cargo. Falconet uses one of her claws to pick the padlock and finds a room full of captured women. She assures them that they're alright now. On the lower decks, Black Parrot and a woman named Secretarybird think their mission is a success. With the harbormaster being bought and paid for ...
