    Second Base - Grifter v2: Newfound Power

    We're halfway through the year, which means its the ideal time to get back to everyone's favourite cool 90s bandana man, Grifter.

    Second Base - Justice League v2: The Villain's Journey

    This week, we're going back to our earliest days and the place where it all began, Justice League. Its time to finally reassess an old friend and see if it gets any better when its in the present day and building up a new villain and Jim Lee's scheduling is bringing in an infinite number of inkers, colourists and fill-in pencillers for pages at a time. But maybe it won't, and maybe it'll be a chance to fix its placement on the rankings. Either way, its Justice League vol 2, The Villain's Journey by Geoff Johns, Jim Lee and Gene Ha with additional pencils by Carlos D'Anda, Ivan Reis, David Finch and Ethan Van Sciver and colours by Alex Sinclair, Art Lyon, Gabe Eltaeb, Pete Pantazis, Hi-Fi, Sonia Oback and Tony Avina.

    Second Base - Nightwing v2: Night of the Owls

    Remember how last time we sat through all that build up about how Dick Grayson was fated to be a Talon for the Court of Owls, who were now gonna go wild on Gotham for an event? Well, don't worry too much about that, its time for his undead great grandpa's origin story while he lectures Nightwing. And also Nightwing is facing social revolutionaries who don't have any politics and getting a new worse origin story. Its all another day in the mines of Nightwing vol 2, Night of the Owls by Kyle Higgins, Eddy Barrows and Andres Guinaldo with additional writing by Tom DeFalco, additional pencils by Geraldo Borges and colours by Rod Reis and Peter Pantazis.

  8. Second Base - Batman: The Dark Knight v2: Cycle of Violence

    Second Base - Batman: The Dark Knight v2: Cycle of Violence

    You know the thing Batman comics were missing up until now? That's right, villains going "we're not so different, you and I". Well, technically this one doesn't fulfill that because its a narrative conceit for the reader / something in Batman's head, but that doesn't matter really because the key thing is its time to ponder generational trauma with Scarecrow. Come lie down on our chaise lounge for Batman: The Dark Knight vol 2, Cycle of Violence by Gregg Hurwitz and David Finch with additional pencils by Mico Suayan and Juan Jose Ryp and colours by Sonia Oback. Next week: you know the wheel by now, of course its Nightwing vol 2, covering issues 8-12 and 0 Find our ongoing rankings and more at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://pandoraslongbox.club/
