Against all odds, this video game tie in remains one of the best things DC is putting out. Somehow. Did I mention that the game in question is a fighting game? Maybe because Taylor seems to have been given relatively free reign, so long as what he writes leads to the scenario in the game. There's a lot of great things here. Lex and Superman being all chummy, even if I'm slightly confused as to why they would be. Maybe because Lex is the only survivor of Metropolis? In at least one version of Lex...

This was so good!Its pretty much the war between Batman and Superman multiplied by factors and like first it starts with whatever is going on with Hawgirl and MM and then the fatal thing Superman does and well the procuring of the Strength tablets and funny bit with Harley and Lobo and its sort of a nice comedic relief in this dark timeline and then Superman vs Batman in his cave and what the action of it leads to, the rifts become large, the friends are divided and more importantly the age of i...

Okay, so has anyone felt personally victimized by this series yet? Well, I have.And that's why I can't give this four stars. Well, that's one of the reasons. This volume, like the first volume, had good dialogue and good artwork as well as humor and interesting characterization. But I wasn't enjoying it as much as the first one. Because Superman and most of the Justice League have really been aggravating me. And THEN SUPERMAN (view spoiler)[ KILLED MY FAVORITE SUPERHERO, GREEN ARROW. WHY DID THI...

➸ Volume 1 : Injustice: Gods Among Us, Vol. 1 ★★★★★➸ Volume 3 : Injustice, Year 2, Vol. 1 ★★★★➸ Volume 4 : Injustice, Year 2, Vol. 2 ★★★HEY! GUYS! I'll take more of this, please.✘ Give me more humor like this, especially when Green Arrow and Harley Quinn are involved. BEST. TEAM-UP. EVER!!✘ Keep the plot twisted and captivating as hell. ► We definitely get a dictator vibes going on, because do you really think dictators come and tell people that they're going to oppress them? God, if only it was...

Introduction: So I just got through with reading the first volume of Tom Taylor’s take on “Injustice: Gods Among Us” and I must admit that reading that volume had gotten me pumped up for the second volume of this series! So, I went to the library to pick up the second volume of “Injustice: Gods Among Us” and man, was it just as interesting as the first volume! What is this story about? Continuing off from the first volume, Superman along with the Justice League continues to promote peace

This was better than the first volume in my opinion. I have the same problems with this one as I did with the first but I thought it was written with a little more maturity than the last one. Overall, the reason I'm not super in love with this series is that it reads like a 12 year old boy was like "What would happen if Superman went evil and just gleefully murdered everyone?" and Tom Taylor was like "That's a great idea!" I wrote in my last review about how Lois as the catalyst for all of this

This series reads like a very realistic nightmare. You know how people you know (including yourself) are doing things that are horribly wrong and there's nothing you can do to stop it? And the only hope you have is that you'll wake up soon? Yeah, that's Superman and those who subscribe to this skewed belief in justice after his terrible loss. It's weird to say you hate Superman, but I kind of do in this book. Batman is seen as the threat and the enemy, but he's like a sane voice in a nightmare o...

Full review with Injustice: Gods Among Us Year One Collection.Introducing... Lex Luthor! This series is really going to bring all of the characters out of the woodwork!

Terrorism and Social Control,or: How to Promote Fighting Games“The Shocking Origin Story for the Best-Selling Fighting Game Continues!”It’s not exactly the kind of back-cover blurb that usually makes me want to take a closer look at a comic book, but Injustice: Gods Among Us continues to be that rare exception to the rule: a fighting-game-based comic book that is actually readable, enjoyable even. It is accessible, full of big ideas and over-the-top drama, the storytelling is crisp and fast-pace...

Holy crap is this stuff good! Another “I can’t believe this is a video game tie-in” collection that shocked the hell out of me. I knew if Tom Taylor could maintain what he started in the first volume I would love it and he did. Read this cover to cover in one sitting and now the long wait for the next collection begins.Taylor fills this book with more memorable moments including the fight with Black Adam, Wonder Woman in Mogadishu, an Apokolips invasion, Superman and Flash playing chess, Damien

Wow! I am loving this series!First, let me say that I played and loved the video game.As far as video game tie-ins go this has to be at the top. There were portions that I appreciated because I've played the game, like seeing character's 'specials' used..But there is plenty to enjoy if you haven't played the game. I find the plot to be incredibly gripping and writing takes me from laughter to tears, this comic is anything but one-note.The characterizations are intriguing as Superman and Wonder W...

I love broken Superman!

Just gettin' better and better... and darker.Surprisingly good for a videogame based tie-in and the ending was really insane, 100% grimdark at its best, and coming unexpectly after the funny Green Arrow/Black Canary/Harley Queen team up against Lobo. An exellent DC universe going grimdark/dystopian series.

Thank you, NetGalley!First...forget the blurb.Nobody wants to read a comic book based off of a video game.Especially one that's in the style of Mortal Kombat.Seriously? No.But this?Tom Taylor lit my ass on fire with this story! I mean, Injustice: Gods Among Us Vol. 1 rocked. Really, it did, but somehow volume 2 is even better!I was all prepared for my inner fangirl to be disappointed, because how long could this guy keep a story like this fresh and exciting? I was even prepared to pat him on his...

Injustice: Gods Among Us, Vol 2 collects issues #7-12 and the IGAU Annual #1.Proceeding directly from the fallout of the first volume, Superman and Wonder Woman are out kicking ass and taking names. However, King Arthur (Aquaman) is not very pleased by all this. He makes the point that his Sea nation is sovereign. Superman, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman are forced to fight Aquaman and the legions of Atlantis. Finally, Superman shows off the true extent of his powers and puts Atlantis in a stran...

I'm a total fanboy of this title.

Moral lesson for Superman: Don't make any life changing decision when you are seriously grieving! You are bound to do something you will regret later!!!Moral lesson for Superman no.2: When your beloved foster parents and your birth father are all telling you to reconsider your decisions, you damn well should!Moral lesson for Batman: Teamwork and Batman don't get along, they simply don't. LOLDr. Harley Quinn wants you to talk about YOUR FEELINGS in your therapy. LOLAlfred Pennyworth is 100 Shades...

I didn't enjoy this second book nearly as much as the first. It felt episodic and formulaic overall, with a few sparks of the fun and excitement of the original outing. Takes about halfway before it gets back to the creative, original spark we saw in the last book. Until then, Batman is doing his "defeat the Justice League with carefully laid plans" shtick and Superman is being fascist Superman. Bo-ring! Morrison already did the Tower of Babel storyline, and the writing was tighter there. On top...

Breaking Bad Ft. SupermanAfter an explosive as well as tragic Volume One, Tom Taylor turns up the heat with full-scale invasions and moral ambiguities! "If you are not prepared to take a life, then you can't possibly fight a war." As Lex Luthor joins the game unexpectedly, Superman's Justice League find themselves lacking in man power to police the world and ensure the peace. On the other side of aisle, Batman is forming a team to take down Superman!The story boasts not only excellent

4.5 starsBased on their interactions in this volume I have a suggestion - the kooky quartet of Black Canary / Green Arrow / Harley Quinn / Lobo should be commissioned, ASAP, as the Justice League Pacific Northwest. I'd read THAT series in a heartbeat. Anyone else agree? Are you listening, DC?Meanwhile, I'd say Vol. 2 is just as good as or better than Vol. 1. The divided factions of the JL continue to scheme and plot against one another. Things get even more out-of-control violent and nasty, espe...
