Darth Vader #24

/ / Comics

Darth Vader #24Never underestimate the power of the Dark Side. Vader has been defeated by Cylo-V and trapped within the mechanical body which the cybernetic genius has completely shut down. But just because the Dark Lord of the Sith is down doesn’t necessarily mean he’s out.

Taking place mostly inside the mind of Vader we see glimpses of Mustafar and the choices of Anakin Skywalker that continue to dominate his destiny. It’s an interesting issue to see the events played out from Vader’s point-of-view, we even see Vader responsible for destroying Anakin at one point. The point of the issue is Anakin is dead, and through the power of sheer will the presence that impossibly wills the dormant mechanical body into action belongs solely to Darth Vader.

All-Star Batman #1

/ / Comics

All-Star Batman #1Scott Snyder is certainly a glass half-empty kind of guy. All-Star Batman #1 puts Batman and Two-Face on the road. Desperate for a chance to cure Harvey Dent, Batman races to an undisclosed location while the criminal kingpin has put an offer out to everyone. If Two-Face isn’t rescued every piece of dirty and blackmail available to him will be released to the public. However, if someone should find and release Two-Face untold riches will be theirs.

All-Star Batman #1 offers a pretty bleak view of humanity where everyone from a cop to a waitress is willing to kill for the prize. Batman also has to deal with super-villains like Killer Moth, Firefly, and Black Spider. Snyder’s choice to make even Alfred culpable in such scheming leaves a pretty awful taste in my mouth.

Atomic Robo and the Temple of Od #1Set in 1938 during WWII, the Japanese have captured a Chinese scientist who has made a breakthrough in zero-point technology. The U.S. Military sends a reluctant Atomic Robo to investigate, find Dr. Lu Huang, and discover if the rumors of the Japanese creating their own teleforce gun are true.

In Shanghai, Robo will meet the Chinese resistance and encounter old friend Helen McAlister before being captured by the Chinese military led by a super-powered soldier in Manchukuo. Let’s just say Robo’s sense of whimsy doesn’t help him make friends.
