My Pick of the Month: CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS!!!
And there you have it. Tons of fantastic reads and views, but I’d be completely out of my mind if I didn’t give my pick of the month spot to the first three parts of the CW’s “Crisis on Infinite Earths” crossover event. Brandon Routh’s return as Superman, Kevin Conroy’s debut as a live-action Batman, and all of the cameos that made even the most jaded comic book fans excited were just the beginning of what makes this such a life-changing viewing. Kevin Smith said it first, but I think it’s safe to say that yes, Jon Cryer is the best Lex Luthor we’ve ever had on the screen. But that’s just the shows. I can’t believe December gave us such great releases as Young Justice, Superman, Action Comics, Lois Lane, Year of the Villain: Hell Arisen, Doomsday Clock, Justice League, Batman/Superman, and a ton of other fantastic reads. What are you looking forward to most in 2020 in terms of Superman-related releases? Hit us up on social media. Until then, see you next year for the continuation Super Sunday! Who knows… maybe we’ll go weekly. 😉
