11 on Batman and Robin Eternal #10 reviewBane and the boys work their way deep into the heart of Saint Dumas and discover the secret behind their Angel of Death, while Grayson and Harper make their way to the super-villain lair of DAVID CAIN!!!!! First off, allow me to apologize for being so incredibly late with this review. I typically try to…
Zombies, "Robins", and some teenage tension between Maps and Olive.....oh the horror! Gotham Academy #13 is a tie-in for the currently running "Robin War" storyline. It follows the exploits of Riko Sheridan, one of the primary cast members of We are Robin. This issue bridges the gap for her from Robin War #1 to Detective…
This week, in the pages of Batman: Jim vs Robo-Bat, Jim vs Bloom, a couple of big surprises, and Bruce wrestles with a demon from his past. My "What the hell?!?" moment for this issue: Usually when I include these, I put them toward the end of the article so I can start things off…
All the Robins are under lock and key with only Grayson at large to save the day. Will the original Boy Wonder be able to bring down The Court of Owls on his own, or will he need help from an unlikely ally to win the day? Detective Comics #47 is part 3 of "Robin…
As issues of Gotham Academy go, this was somewhat underwhelming. Don't get me wrong, it's still wildly entertaining and engaging, but I've put Gotham Academy on a pedestal that this issue just couldn't reach. Everything that has happened up till now, was building to this moment. This installment was a culmination of a year's worth…
Red Robin and Red Hood battle a bearded Bane on the Island of Santa Prisca, and we get our first glimpse at the Angel of Death! Let me get this unimportant detail out of the way right up front so we can focus on the rest of the issue without it permeating my every thought.…
Wanna see a mountain of armored muscle beat a bunch of defenseless kids senseless? Then you came to the right place! Come for the spectacle, but stay for the depth. Not only does this issue feature plenty of action, it also poses delicate philosophical questions that would tempt the best of us. Last month, I…
Cassandra and Harper battle ballerinas while Grayson bandies words with Mother. In this, their second installment for Batman&Robin Eternal, Genevieve Valentine and Alvaro Martinez continue to deliver high quality storytelling at its finest. Valentine with her expertly crafted dialogue and Martinez with his sublimely stunning pencils. Get ready, as we delve deeper into the mystery that…
Can lighting strike twice? After last week's near perfect chapter of Batman & Robin Eternal, I had high hopes for continued success going into this week's follow up, and I am happy to report that my expectations were blown out of the water. Ominous, elegant, sophisticated, intelligent, cultured, and mysterious are all words I would…
Curious about the longevity of our Burnside Batgirl? Well, look no further. In this installment of the monthly sales report, I provide a complete breakdown for the sales of the ongoing Batgirl title. Get ready, the results might shock you! But first, let's take a look at our October numbers. Below you will find a…
Bloom goes on a murder spree, Bruce and Julie have a sexy shower scene, and Duke Thomas breaks into the Iceberg Lounge. I'm guessing I have your attention now, so lets begin. (It was the sexy shower scene that got you, right?) The issue opens with Bloom murdering every person in sight. Then he suggests…
Now that's more like it! After a couple of rough issues, Batman&Robin Eternal comes back strong with a healthy dose of intrigue and a Bruce-centric story that is sure to put a smile on even the most critical fans' face. Forget about the story. If this image doesn't do it for you, I question your…
The last issue of Bat-Mite is here....or should I say FINALLY here. Now maybe I'm just in a good mood since I don't have to dread reviewing more issues of this mini-series, but I didn't find the finale to be as intolerable as I was expecting. But don't misinterpret that as a recommendation. This is…
Batman & Robin Eternal #5....where the Batfamily continues to dominate Mother's operatives, and DC continues to mess with Tim Drake. Mother and her band of cohorts are quickly losing any sense of intimidation. In the premiere issue, there was a real sense of peril and a thrill of the unknown. Maybe the mystery is still…
The League investigates the homicide of a 200 foot tall eyeball eating alien. Is this an issue of Detective Comics or an episode of the X-Files? Right from the start, I was happy to see that this issue of Detective Comics actually had some detective work for a change. However, it only took a few…
I'm not going to talk extensively about September. For the most part, everything dropped in sales, and it's kind of bumming me out. The only issues that saw an increase were Detective Comics, Batman Beyond, and Injustice. But don't worry, despite September being uneventful, I still have some interesting things to discuss. Below you will…
Grayson takes on axe-wielding mind-controlled freaks with the help of We are Robin and Batgirl. That pretty much sums up this whole issue. While I know that might sound exciting and fun, it's actually a lot more mediocre and unnecessary than you'd expect. The story is basically just one long fight scene, but not very…
This is easily the best issue of We are Robin to date. While not heavy on action, the issue boasts a substantial amount of introspection and plenty of motivational disclosure on our group of "would be heroes". We also get our first real look at the Robins' nemesis, along with an appearance of the Nest,…
Does everyone have their parental permission slips signed? Good, because we are off to Gotham City to have a field trip adventure that only the cast of Gotham Academy could deliver! Independence! For some kids, field trips were their first experience in controlled freedom. We all ventured out into the real world with our parents,…
The Batcave, The BatFamily, and even Bruce Wayne. It's like a family reunion in here, but actually fun! The gang is all here! I really liked how much of the team was represented in this story. At times, it got a little crowded, as if Seeley wanted to give each of them a little page…
