Arkham Unhinged is a series that's meant to fill in the gaps between the video games Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. It's written by Derek Fridolfs (Justice League Unlimited, Li'l Gotham) and features a new artist with every issue including such talented individuals as Darick Robertson, Jorge Jimenez, and Peter Nguyen. Content Volume 2 of…
Villains Month is finally here and that means all the traditional titles have been wiped out and replaced with one-shot villain stories. So here's what's going to happen. I'm going to give you a list of all the Villains month comics coming out this week and then I'll show you which ones I'm going to…
It's the end of the month and that means it's time to take another break from Batman to talk about all of our other favorite comic books and hopefully get more folks excited about reading! I'll share the names of all the best comic books I had the chance to read and then I'll invite…
Last issue ended in grand fashion as Wonder Woman swooped in on a Pegasus to dispatch the evil Trickster (a phantom figure associated with Darkseid, who you can see on the cover of the book so I don't count that as a spoiler) and she apparently killed Lois Lane (who was at the time possessed…
Before we get started, does the cover look like Henry Cavill and Billy Zane to anyone else or is it just me? And NO Billy Zane would not make a good Lex Luthor. Can we stop that? I'm sick of seeing his name in every fan casting discussion. It's as bad as every time we…
Plainly put: if you liked the sewer beat-down scene from The Dark Knight Rises, then you're going to enjoy Talon #11, but more importantly it's a really solid ending to yet another entertaining arc with some very important developments for this series. Now, I promise I'll get a review up soon of Talon, Vol. 1.…
I really enjoyed last month's issue and this one started out strong too until Batman started using a weird force-field gun and then I had to shout "What are you doing?!" We've seen Batman use big, hulking Iron Man-like armor in the past but it's always been easy to say "Yeah, but he can't wear…
Not only do I approve of the Batman Incorporated Special but I wouldn't mind seeing this turn into an annual or semiannual thing. Much like Batman: Black & White or Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight, Batman Incorporated Special is an anthology that features the works of multiple different writers and artists only instead of…
How well you enjoy Justice League #23 hinges on whether or not you've had things spoiled for your already and how jaded you are by big events. This is a comic that's going to divide readers into two camps. There will be those who view it as an awesome comic because it has such a large…
You have 3 weeks to vote and I’m dividing the poll into four parts. It’s only the 4th year of Batman’s existence but he’s already showing up in a whole lot of books and we need more polls to fit all the options. Part one decided the best World’s Finest cover of 1942, then we had a…
I'm at least a little excited for every bat-title coming out this week (except for Teen Titans and Catwoman, which are so bad that I pretend they don't exist). This Wednesday marks the end of Batman Incorporated, Trinity War concludes, and then we have a little Bane, Clayface, and Injustice goodness to look forward to…
Go fetch a box of tissues, bat-fans, because Peter J. Tomasi is here to make you shed some tears. "But it features Nightwing this month and Nightwing always makes me smile!" you exclaim. Well, I hate to break it to you but if this comic was labeled honestly it would be called Batman & Alfred…
This should be read after you pick up Justice League Dark #23, but seeing as how not much happened in that comic you would really be shooting yourself in the foot if you decided to read this one first anyway. It's no secret that I don't think much has happened in Trinity War and they've…
I'm done. I'm out. If I want to read a fringe bat-title with a mysticism angle then I'll pick up the better-drawn Batwoman title. Writer James Tynion IV has taken Red Hood and the Outlaws too far in a direction that I don't find interesting in the slightest. At least when Lobdell sent the trio…
Batman Beyond Universe #1 collects two digital firsts (Batman Beyond 2.0 and Justice League Beyond 2.0) into one $3.99 book. This is a relaunch that features all-new creative teams who have taken the story left behind by the previous series Batman Beyond Unlimited and jumped events ahead by one year. Didn't read any of Batman Beyond…
Beautiful artwork, but a whole lot of nothing happens in this issue. The first page recaps how Madame Xanadu is being held captive, Batman's team failed to find any answers in the underworld, Shazam was tricked by Constantine, ARGUS was blown up, and Wonder Woman is now corrupted by the ring box. What follows is…
This is about as close as Adam West is going to get to a Lethal Weapon 2 "It's just been revoked!" scene. In Batman '66 #2, Penguin has built a giant iceberg in Gotham harbor that has been recognized as the independent nation of Penguinia. Penguinia is blocking all shipments from entering Gotham, but for…
Batman must try to save Rex Mason from transforming into Metamorpho. Directed by Curt Geda. Written by Erin Maher & Kathryn Reindl. There won't be any new episodes for a while, but if you haven't caught Beware the Batman yet all 6 episodes will repeat starting with episode #1 next Saturday at 10AM Eastern on…
The future, the past, and everything in-between is available to Batman fans this week as we get a new installment of Batman '66, a brand-new Batman Beyond series, an issue of Batman & ___ dealing with the fallout of Damian's death, and, of course, Trinity War continues in not one but two titles released this…
If you've read my previous reviews then you know I'm tired of the doom and gloom and gore of this series and wish it were more fun like say Batgirl: Year One or what the current New 52 Nightwing series is doing. But while issue #23 doesn't take that turn toward the more lighthearted tone…
