Yvonne Craig, the first actress to ever portray Barbara Gordon/Batgirl, has died. Craig passed away Monday night in her home in Los Angeles, California after succumbing to breast cancer, which had metastasized to her liver. Yvonne Craig was trained as a ballet dancer and was a member of the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo in…
Justice League: Gods and Monsters marks the return of beloved animator Bruce Timm to the DC animated universe. While seeing another DC flick with the Justice League title may look like business as usual, Gods and Monsters is anything but. This is a “What if?” or better yet an Elseworlds story like Red Son or…
There is one less hero in the world. Late Sunday night, Lenny B. Robinson, better known as The Route 29 Batman, had engine trouble and stopped partially in the fast lane where he got out to check the engine of his Batmobile. Soon after, he and the car were struck by a Toyota Camry. He…
It was on a Friday afternoon smack-dab in the middle of the overcrowded San Diego Convention Center.

Superman, Arrow, and Flash costumes was the roped-off corner of the DC booth where…
I was going to build a poker table this summer, but now constructing a miniature GCPD building seems more in line with what I really need in this house! Sideshow Collectibles was kind enough to send Batman News a sample of the new John Blake and Jim Gordon with Bat-Signal by Hot Toys and I'm…
As promised, here's the review for DC Collectible's Joker sculpted by Irene Matar and inspired by the Batman: The Animated Series episode "The Last Laughed," which aired way back in September of 1992. Is the figure a worthy tribute to Bruce Timm's popular design and does it live up to the quality of the other toys…
The third and final figure in DC Collectible's second wave of Batman: The Animated Series toys salutes "On Leather Wings," the episode that started it all-- kind of. "On Leather Wings" may be the pilot, but it actually aired the day after "The Cat and The Claw, Part 1." But that doesn't matter, what matters…
The second wave is here and that means new toy reviews. We'll start with #6 in the series since I've had some trouble with acquiring a decent Joker sample to discuss.

Justice League, Vol. 5: Forever Heroes? A more appropriate name would have been "Forever Evil: The Supplemental Material." Volume 5 doesn't really feature the Justice League at all. These chapters fall smack-dab in the middle of Forever Evil and that means that almost all of our heroes are being held captive somewhere and the evil-doers…
Old meets new at DC Comics this spring as the universe is enveloped by the two-month long event known as Convergence, a reality-bending event in which Brainiac has tied together timelines from all of DC History for a twisted experiment. During this "experiment" we will see characters of retro continuity and bizarre Elseworlds intertwine with…

Unfortunately for him, that harmless institution he was hoping for doesn't exist in Gotham. He's going to Arkham Asylum, a…
