*Non Spoilers and Score At The Bottom*

The time has come once again for Tom King to return with another issue of Batman and Catwoman. For the most part, I realize that I’ve actually been pretty high on this series. Granted, I’m not blown away by it or anything, but looking back on my recent reviews, and reflecting on the series as a whole, I’m not too disappointed by it. I know many people aren’t the biggest fan of Tom King and others actually are the biggest fans of his, but I’m in the middle of the road. I’m enjoying the series, but even I can ignore the blatant flaws that it has. Despite those though, I think I’m looking forward to the newest issue to see where it takes us. So, without further ado, let’s jump into it.

The Flash is back and now that Barry Allen plans on discovering what the new Omniverse holds with Calvin Ellis and the rest of Justice Incarnate, it seems that the person who's going to fill his boots back on the Earth we know and love is none other than my Flash, Wally West. That's right, after a few bad years of getting the shaft, it seems that Wally is back in the good graces of DC Comics and is getting a shot to make a difference. Let's hope that this continues as this series does because man..... Wally West seriously needs a win. Let's jump into this issue and check it out.

Future State: Superman Vs. Imperious Lex #3 Review

Release Date: March 30, 2021

Even though we're deep into Infinite Frontier, it's time to take a step back into the future of..... you guessed it, Future State.... for some reason because apparently, this series needed another issue to come out a month later than everything else. Yeah, it's weird but we'll go with it because, for the most part, this has been an alright story, even though we're essentially doing the same thing in each issue and making Lex Luthor look like a dummy for the sake of Russell's satire. Let's jump into this issue and see if we needed a third issue to this story and if it matters to the overall Future State premise that our heroes will be dealing with as they progress in their Infinite Frontier. Let's check it out.

The Joker has hidden a bomb in Gotham-but there might be a bigger explosion if Batman proves his suspicions true, and Catwoman actually knows where it is! It’s a dangerous secret that threatens to destroy the couple’s relationship in its early days, and it’s going to reverberate throughout their time together. In the present day, it will affect how Selina handles Andrea Beaumont, a.k.a. Phantasm, who has a vendetta to carry out against the Clown Prince of Crime, fueled by the righteous fury of a mother who lost her son.

And this whole chain of events is what ultimately leads to Catwoman killing The Joker in the future-a secret she can’t keep from her daughter, Batwoman, much longer. Particularly now that old man Penguin is involved.

1983. Japan. Tatsu Yamashiro’s life has been taken from her. Her home, her children, her husband are all gone.

The long-awaited miniseries written by Academy Award-winning screenwriter John Ridley (12 Years a Slave, Let It Fall) and beautifully illustrated by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Andrea Cucchi continues to look at the mythology of the DC Universe as seen through the prism of DC Super Heroes who come from traditionally disenfranchised groups
