61 on Batman Eternal #51 reviewAfter reading this issue, you'll be thankful that the powers that be decided to make this a weekly instead of a monthly. Oh, who am I kidding! Even 7 days seems too long to wait after reading this. Expectations can play a huge role in the overall enjoyment one gets out of a story, and…
February was a great month for the Batman titles! 10 of the titles that we cover all had tremendous increases in their sales, and one had an unexpectedly large dip. Below you will find a chart detailing the 25 comics that this site reviews, along with the total sales for this month and several previous…
You want to see Batman completely lose his composure and take down a bunch of criminals in seconds! Well then, you've come to the right place. And we aren't talking your run of the mill street thugs either, we are talking about super villains who would usually get entire story arcs devoted to them. This…
I'd like to tell you all that this issue is awesome and that things are finally kicking into high gear, but that just isn't the case. At this point, Eternal doesn't feel like it has any gas left, and instead of speeding over that finish line, it's just coasting to the end. A lot of…
Why? This might be the question you ask yourself after reading this book. Why did I buy this?...why did I read this?...why did they make this?........why does Harper look like a man? Most of the time, I get the impression that a comic starts with a writer brainstorming an idea that forms into a story…
Up to this point, I've genuinely been enjoying the Anarchy story, only to discover in this closing chapter that it was not an Anarchy story at all. As a reader, I feel lied to. It ends up being nothing more than a inventive ruse designed to hide the personal nature of the actual crime at…
It's a miracle! We have an issue of Batman Eternal with Gordon in it! We haven't seen hide nor hair of Gordon nor Bard since issue #38, and we have not seen any kind of real progression in the story since then either. Here's hoping that getting Gordon back into the fold gets our story…
You know when you're driving in a 55mph speed limit zone but everyone around you insists on going 45. That's how I've felt for the last 2 months in regards to the Batman Eternal storyline. "Just go already!" This weeks chapter meanders through 9 different stories! And only 2 of them were able to hold…
Next month is the final chapter of EndGame, so I wanted to take a moment to reflect on where we have been, extrapolate on the future, and share some concerns. Let me start by saying, even thought I am not on board with the idea of the Joker being immortal, I have thoroughly enjoyed the…
Considering that this issue has a line of dialogue in it that sports the title of this entire series, I would have thought more time would have been devoted into making sure that this issue knocked your socks off. As it stands, it is merely acceptable. The majority of this story is spent showing the…
This is a Batman site, but I would be remiss if I didn't point out the fact that the new Star Wars title that premiered in January had the highest totals for a comic that I have seen in years, coming in at 985,976. That number is ridiculous! It's ten times the number of the…
This is going nowhere fast! I thought the last issue was unnecessary, but this one is borderline ad nauseam. So, what happens in this issue? Batman punches out Mister Bygone, Batwing chases the spirits out of his apartment, Jim Corrigan elaborates on the book used to bring Deacon Blackfire back from the dead, Harper and…
The two main questions that are probably on everybody's minds are: is Lonnie dead and does Batman get blamed for it? I'm going to talk about it, so if you haven't read the issue yet and don't want to know, I suggest you stop now and come back for the discussions after reading. Exactly like…
Only 8 issues left with Batman Eternal, and the creative team decides that THIS is the best use of their ink? This issue is all about Professor Milo on the run because of his involvement with the Arkham incident; personally, I thought the Arkham plot was finished when the Spectre intervened. I did not need…
Sometimes words simply are not enough. Experiencing it for yourself is the only way to truly grasp the scope and poignancy of something. This is one of those times. This was sooo good, it actually made me sad: at some point in the future, Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo are going to stop doing Batman…
This is the best issue of Batman Eternal I have read in 3 months! There are so many excellent scenes in this comic it is almost unfair. Maybe they could have doled out some of this awesomeness into previous issues instead of cramming it all into one. James Tynion IV completely nails it with this…
First, let me start by apologizing for this being a week later than usual. The powers that be decided that they wanted to release the data on the year in review for 2014 before the December data. I guess that means it isn't my fault since I had to wait on them, but since they…
Bluebird's first flight! Does she soar....or crash to the ground like a rock? In my opinion, it turned out pretty good; not in the sense that she did everything right, but in the fact that she didn't do everything right! This is what made it a good story. If she had just shown up and…
Cracking open the pages of this book felt a lot like opening the lid of a long buried treasure chest. I always knew it existed, but I thought of it more as a legend than a reality. To hold a copy in my hand is almost surreal. Batmanga was a project that was undertaken by…
Nano-Bots. Nano-Bots everywhere! This is probably the most straightforward issue of Eternal we have had in quite awhile, spending almost all of its time on a single story line, with only a quick check in on Spoiler. The story is primarily allocated to a rooftop conversation and the pursuing warehouse raid and while we don't…
