8 on Batman: Arkham Unhinged, Vol. 1 reviewFor a little over a year now the series Arkham Unhinged has been going up online as a digital first and then collected in print copies that show up in stores a few months later. The story of Arkham Unhinged is based on the Arkhamverse, the Batman universe created by Paul Dini and Rocksteady Studios,…
Harbinger, Vol. 1 A powerful telepath travels the world finding teens with remarkable powers and brings them back to his secret school for the gifted. Sound an awful lot like X-Men? That's because it is... on the surface. But trust, me by the time you reach chapter 5 that notion gets thrown out the window…
Batgirl Volume 1 dealt pretty heavily with Barbara's lack of confidence and struggle to re-adapt to the cape and cowl again while pitting her against villains that reflected her own inner demons. Volume 2 continues that pattern but it goes bigger. Much bigger. Not only do we dig deep into The Killing Joke, but we take a…
We have an opening available! It's pretty much impossible for a Batman fan to not know what happened last Wednesday. Even if you like to trade-wait all your books you likely had the death of Damian Wayne spoiled for you by casually browsing the web, listening to the radio, or watching the evening news. Or…
Emperor Penguin and Batman finally come face to face, Batwing loses his armor, and we get three stand-alone stories outside of the New 52 continuity in this week's Batman comics! Here’s a list of all the Batman comics coming out this week, March 6th graded on a scale of my own anticipation. Hell no! – …
While many who frequent this site are very familiar with the most recent Boy Wonder I imagine that a great many casual fans who saw this week's headlines were a bit confused to learn that there were multiple Robins and surprised to find out that Batman had a son at all. To help get these…
While DC may have given away Batman Inc. #8's ending 2 days ahead of time, they did manage to keep one secret from fans for a good long while! Earlier today Buzzfeed broke the news that the covers DC had previewed for all upcoming March Bat-titles were all a facade to hide the tragic death…
Before we get into the comic itself let's take a moment to appreciate how cool this cover is. Ethan Van Sciver really put a lot of detail into this so take a few minutes to note all the mushrooms, the white rabbit holding a gun, the skull flowers, the Cheshire cat that is now a…
More than just a marketing gimmick, Injustice: Gods Among Us might just be the most awesome superhero comic you can read right now. Think Kingdom Come without Alex Ross' art but with more laughs, more shocks, and a way faster pace. Since this comic takes place within its own universe it doesn't have to abide by…
Even if you don't usually read Batman Incorporated, issue #8 is required reading. Like it or hate it, what happens here is going to resonate in all other Batman comics for (ideally) years to come. I tried to stay quiet about what happens in this comic all week. People have even been emailing Batman-News saying we…
Li'l Gotham has expanded to two issues a month and while we've already seen a Valentine's Day adventure this week we get a rather unexpected Lunar New Year episode. Very little attention is given to this holiday, however, but the story does maintain an Asian theme as Damian Wayne teams up with Katana in Gotham's…
All the buzz is around Batman Inc. #8 but we also get some trippy Mad Hatter shenanigans, and a follow-up to the mind-blowingly awesome first issue of Injustice: Gods Among Us! Here’s a list of all the Batman comics coming out this week, February 27th graded on a scale of my own anticipation. Hell no! –…
This issue starts off really strong and ends strong but I found everything in between to be rather lacking. I will say that now is probably going to be your best chance to jump on board this title if you never have before. Another opportunity like this won't come around for quite some time. Justice…
What can I say? It's a drastic improvement over previous issues because this comic actually made sense. I wouldn't go so far as to call it interesting or memorable in any way, but at least I didn't feel like slamming my head in a car door a few pages into it. Nocenti's quirky style is…
Greg Pak and Jae Lee are behind an all new Batman and Superman team-up book that will debut this June. The story will follow Batman and Superman at the beginning of their careers. USA Today broke the story earlier this morning and Twitter follower @KyleLofton brought that report to my attention, so thanks for that! My…
This was one of the shortest reads I've experienced in a while. I actually found myself flipping back to make sure I hadn't skipped over any pages. I don't even think it took 10 minutes to get through but I think a big part of that is the artwork, which is definitely not good. There…
Death of the Family is over and all of the Bat-titles that took part in the crossover event are going back to business as usual. All of them, that is, except for Nightwing. Of all the members of the batfamily, no one got hit harder than Dick Grayson. I would argue that even Batman himself…
Whooooooooaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Although The Throne of Atlantis storyline wrapped up a lot sooner than I expected it definitely went out with a bang. Aquaman #16 Recap Now, I never got around to reading Aquaman #16 until a couple of days ago but in that issue we found out what became of Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman…
I wasn't exactly sold on the idea when it was first announced but the characters DC had assembled is so non-traditional that it did peak my curiousity. It sounded like a slightly improved version of Justice League International because now instead of getting Batman and a group of D-list heroes we're getting a more balanced…
DC's official blog The Source was cool enough to send me some preview images of tomorrow's JLA #1 to share with everybody. An official press release came with the email as well with Geoff Johns and David Finch's own insights on the upcoming series. I've already read JLA #1 and you can read my review…
