He also wrote reviews for Atomic Robo Vol 2 #1, Tiny Titans #7, Marvel Apes #1 and a ton of other titles.

He may be my favorite reviewer - ever! :twisted:

I can’t wait to see what happens. If Batman is really crazy I think Robin is going to have to beat him up.
Maybe we're over-analyzing all this Morrison stuff. If we just let the 7-year old in us revel in the craziness & (bleep)-kicking we'll be better off.

I like how the kid notices:
I like how Batmite showed up and kept talking to Batman and the statues started talking to each other and Batman. Everything is so weird now unless Batman is only thinking it and it’s not real.
Very astute observation, kid! Well done!

I swear, this kid is the only reviewer I need!
From: http://kidscomicbooks.blogspot.com/

Atomic Robo Vol 2 #1
Written by Brian Clevinger and illustrated by Scott Wegener and Zack Frinfrock
Published by Red 5 Comics

The cover of this comic is so cool. It’s a robot in an army outfit holding a machine gun.

The comic is about a Robot that is used by the army to go into battle and kick butt...

...It was cool how the battle ships shot the plane and they needed Robo to jump out but he was a little scared because he thought he was too heavy for the parachute to work. Then his friends told him to jump or they were going to push him out of the plane.

Another funny part was how one of the soldiers told his friend that even if he gets killed he still owes him ten dollars from a bet. It was also really funny when Robo just got mad about all the shooting and called the bad guys jerks...

For all of us, who began reading comic books at his age (give or take a year) this is like a flashback. We did not analyze the writer, we enjoyed the story, appreciated the action and looked forward to the next issue.

Great job!! Liam!!
