Hawkgirl: Once Upon A Galaxy – Comic Review
I wanted to read Hawkgirl: Once Upon A Galaxy, because it featured a character that I’ve grown to enjoy named Galaxy. I liked this book but didn’t love it, and I know where it slipped for me.
Hawkgirl is struggling following the dissolution of the Justice League, and she’s working to figure herself out. Who is she without the Justice League and what should she be doing with her life? I loved what Jadzia Axelrod did with the storytelling for Hawkgirl’s journey.
The book 100% slipped for me on the villain. I was just not into Vulpecula. Sure she was from the Nth Dimension, and she has those direct ties to Hawkgirl. I just wasn’t feeling it. Honestly, I wasn’t feeling basically any of it. I hope it worked for others though!
And, once again, I really liked Galaxy. She’s a fun character that I had zero knowledge of before I recently discovered the two volumes of her story. Seeing a newly-created character like Galaxy interact with the DC Trinity of Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman is tremendous. I really hope to see more of her in the future.
The art from Amancay Nahuelpan was great! Combined with the colors from Adriano Lucas, Alex Guimaräes, and Carrie Strachan, it really felt like book came alive. There were some fantastic images in this book.
Overall, I think this book is fine. I had a good time with it. I didn’t love it.

Justice League Chronicles with Doug Adamson (The Monitor Tapes)
Look, at some point you have to respect the audacity of putting the entire Justice League on a Game Boy Advance cartridge. Not one hero. Not two heroes doing a buddy-cop thing. The whole league. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the works. All crammed onto a handheld that also had to share shelf space with Hamtaro games. That’s ambition. That’s vision. That might also be a cry for help, but we’re not here to judge.
Justice League Chronicles was Ubisoft’s love letter to the animated series, which means it had genuinely great source material to pull from and a screen roughly the size of a Post-it note to work with. The Justice League animated series was the kind of show that made you sit down and watch it with your kids because it was actually that good, and somehow that energy had to survive the trip to a device that ran on two AA batteries.
Here to help make sense of it all is Doug Adamson from The Monitor Tapes, a man whose podcast is literally named after the thing the Justice League uses to watch for trouble. Which means he was cosmically destined to appear on this episode whether he wanted to or not.
So pull up a chair in the Watchtower, try not to touch anything that looks important, and let’s talk about a DC animated tie-in that had no business being as earnest as it was.
Learn such things as:
- Does it really matter if you end up fighting against someone else’s villains?
- Does it really matter if you can’t pick how you’re going to pair off the League members?
- Does anything really matter when you’re getting to play one of the best cartoons ever made?
- And so much more!
You can find Doug on BlueSky @themonitortapes.com, Threads @themonitortapes (although it might actually be DC Dave running those, I don’t know), his podcast The Monitor Tapes, and whatever else they decide to release over on Brick Crisis Network.
If you want to be a guest on the show please check out the Be a A Guest on the Show page and let me know what you’re interested in.
The next episode is going to be The Multipath Advantures of Superman, so get your thoughts ready and over to me if you want to hear them in the show.

If you want to hear Chris talk with Karrington Martin about the lessons we learned from children’s media and how crazy it is that we’re supposed to just forget about that now that we’re adults, then Sugar, Spite, and Everything is Fine is probably something you should check out.

Justice League Heroes with Gavin Mevius (The Q Division, The Mixed Reviews)
Somewhere in the mid-2000s, a group of developers looked at the Justice League and said, “What if we made a game where all your favorite heroes team up… and then we just kinda vibed with that idea instead of sticking to any specific comic storyline?” Which kind of works actually because they got Dwayne McDuffie to write it but that’s not the point. So anyway, Justice League Heroes burst onto the scene for PS2, Xbox, PSP, and Nintendo DS like a Watchtower alarm that nobody remembers installing.
This week on Play Comics, we grab our capes, charge up our vaguely canon-adjacent superpowers, and dive into a game that absolutely has Batman, Superman, and friends… ummm, friends are definitely there I promise and sometimes they have to be there because of contractual obligations. And sometimes even the best version of those friends if you’re lucky and the best version of that hero had been invented already.
Joining the adventure is Gavin Mevius from The Mixed Reviews and The Q Division, bringing along just the right blend of insight, chaos, and “wait, was that ever a comic plot?” energy to help us make sense of it all.
So get ready for teamwork, button mashing, and a Justice League game that is just kind of meh, especially considering the story that it had to work with.
Learn such things as:
- When you can have Justice League adventures without Batman or Superman
- Why you don’t need a 100% comic plot line to have a good comic plot line.
- What the world was like before micro transactions got involved with everything
- And so much more!
You can find Gavin on BlueSky @shhhitsgavin, Instagram @gavinmev, and of course on his podcasts The Mixed Reviews (a monthly film review show taking a deep dive into a subject, actor, director, or something else along those lines) and The Q Division (a monthly deep dive into James Bond).
If you want to be a guest on the show please check out the Be a A Guest on the Show page and let me know what you’re interested in.
The next episode is going to be Galactic Wrestling with Ultimate Muscle, so get your thoughts ready and over to me if you want to hear them in the show.

Justice League Injustice for All with AJ Malacarne (Gamma Head Press)
Welcome to another episode of Play Comics, where we dive into the pixelated world of superheroes and their digital escapades! This week, we’re strapping on our capes and booting up our Game Boy Advances to tackle Justice League: Injustice for All. Based on the beloved Justice League Unlimited cartoon, this game lets you step into the boots of your favorite heroes, even if the gameplay sometimes feels like it’s stuck in the Phantom Zone.
Joining us for this heroic journey is the illustrious AJ Malacarne from Gamma Head Press. Known for their penchant for the absurd and psychedelic storytelling, AJ brings a unique perspective to our discussion. Will they find the game as thrilling as a battle with Darkseid, or as perplexing as The Riddler’s latest scheme? Tune in to find out!
So grab your Batarang, call in your sidekicks, and prepare for a supercharged episode that promises more twists and turns than a Luthor-led plot. Let’s see if Injustice for All can truly do justice to the Justice League!
Learn such things as:
- How can you create a show where off screen characters are treated as if they actually exist all the time?
- How does the platform a game is going on impact the development and design of that game?
- Which characters really need to show up in new Justice League experiences?
- And so much more!
You can find AJ on Twitter @AJMalacarne, BlueSky @ajmalacarne, Instagram @aj_malacarne, Threads @aj_malacarne, and of course their newsletter Gamma Head Press.
