TICGN’S O.W.R for September 2016

 

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to TICGN’S O.W.R for the month of September 2016. This is an article where we review the pickups from TICGN’s Comic section using one word or a specific phrase. These words or phrases can range from what we felt after reading the comic or to what we the readers think the comic was about.  We only got a few new titles that launched this month such as Teen Titans and Trinity,which both I really enjoyed. You will noticed the lack of Marvel related comic books on this list. That is because Civil war 2 is still going on and most of the tie-in’s are terrible. But don’t be alarmed guys, I bought a  ton of Marvel’s Now! books that will be on the next Top 5 that will come out soon.

 

 

 

Batman #6,7

 

Batman (2016-) #7

 

Word for #6 – Emotional

Word for #7 – Weirdness

Explanation for Word #6 – The whole issue is just a reminder of what Gotham Guy could have been to the city of Gotham before he lost his mind.

Explanation for Word #7 – Using human cadavers to create monsters is not something I would have expected in Batman.

Recommend ? –  Not Recommend either issue. Both are just something that can be skipped.

Word for #5 – Unbelievable
