I dont get to buy a lot of comics but like to keep up on whats on... does anyone have a site that reviews and tells you what happens in the books >

this site is pretty consistent in content and quality of reviews, and they are not one of the ones with a real bias to dc or marvel, which is refreshing.

this column is one i really enjoy, the gentleman who writes it does quite a good job researching his topics and gives you really good background stuff, if you are interested:

Every week there's a "My Marvel/DC Comics for..." thread started here on the realms in the Marvel Comics and DC Comics sections, which features brief reviews and synopses. I'm not sure about sites with anything more in depth.

This is the only one I know of, so therefore the only one I use, but it's pretty decent. Updated often and they review more than just the 'big' titles:
