Comic Book Classics Revisited: Crisis on Infinite Earths #7

Comic Book Classics Revisited has finally entered the blackest week in our series’ short run. The Grim Reaper is going to make a couple stops this week. First, Crisis on Infinite Earths #7 deals out death to an under-appreciated character that would later be heavily mourned by the DC faithful.

The State of SuperHero TV

This seems like a good time to take stock in the various hero shows out there. Agent Carter finished her initial season with no real word on if the show will be back, ditto for Constantine.

Comic Book Classics Revisited: Crisis on Infinite Earths #1

Welcome back to Comic Book Classics Revisited! Last week saw the conclusion of our first classic to be revisited, Secret Wars, and with the start of this week, it’s time to take a look at a DC Comics classic – Crisis on Infinite Earths. With Convergence, DC Comics’ 2015 event, on the horizon, and with many of the tie-ins dealing with characters from Crisis, I thought this might be the perfect time to take a closer look at this series. Let’s dive right in to the first issue!
