4 on This Week in Comics: Batman and Bane settle an old scoreBatman: White Knight continued to be an action-packed, high-stakes drama, but with plenty of room for fun and funny—like when Batman finally payed Bane back for the whole back-breaking thing: If you’re new to White Knight, it’s only three issues in, so it’s not too hard to get caught up. And since it takes place outside…
Batman's the bad guy. That’s what Jack Napier wants Gotham to believe, and when the Dark Knight's hands are far from clean, the city doesn’t need much convincing. But the artist-formerly-known-as-Joker has done more than point fingers—he has also pledged to do some good of his own. And while his methods may leave a bit…
We’ve seen Batman have bad days before. Sometimes, even someone as brilliant and well-trained as Bruce Wayne makes errors in judgment and pays the price. But what if the bill comes due for someone else, instead? And what kind of mistakes will the world tolerate from the Justice League? Whether you’re new to this book,…
Justice. If I can sum up Batman's appeal to me in one word, that would be it. In a city where justice is too often blocked by the very structures erected to preserve it, Batman stands outside the law as its most effective champion. But what about here in the real world? How many orphans…
Crash! Bang! Kersplatt! Onomatopoeia threatens all of the above on the citizens of Star City, and only Robin and Red Arrow stand in the breach. Maybe! Can the rest of the Titans convince Kid Flash to come back and help them help Damian help Emiko? Or will Wally keep his back turned and leave his…
It’s Justice League month, so it’s only fitting that the Legion of Collectors would send out a box of goodies based on the film. Other than a questionable t-shirt design, this one is pretty great, with two Pop!s and several other sweet, fresh items. Check out the video, and then sign up at legionofcollectors.com.
Hey, guess what? We're looking to add a comic reviewer to our team. Is it you? Follow the directions and find out. Anyway, on to business. There were some good books this week! Even if you're new to comics or tired of Metal, there was an excellent Metal tie-in: Justice League #33. So if you just got back…
It's here at last—the conclusion of "Dark Destiny." Will Circe succeed in sucking the souls out of scads of slavish supers? Or will our heroes find a way to prevail? Find out in Trinity #15! Ding-dong, the witch is dead Whereby "the witch," I mean "this arc," and not "Circe"—I won't tell you one way or…
The Justice League has been defeated! With Batman and Superman lost in the dark, and Cyborg subdued by the Murder Machine, the Batman Who Laughs and his Band of Bad Bat Boys (and girl) made quick enough work of the rest of the team. Can our heroes get out of this pickle? Find out if…
I used to have a guitar that was made of resin. If I had known that when I first played it, I probably would have passed on it. Guitars are made of wood, dagnabbit! I kind of felt the same way about Diamond’s collection of Batman: the Animated Series resin busts when I first saw…
If you’re into anything DC, you probably don’t need me to tell you: Harley Quinn is kind of a big deal. She’s in movies, cartoons, toys, and all sorts of other things. And you can’t throw a mallet at Comic Con without hitting at least a dozen ladies—and gents—dressed as Harley. If you want a…
It’s the Outlaws vs. those other outlaws: the Suicide Squad! Batwoman and the Wannabats have shipped Red Hood, Artemis, and Bizarro into the hands of Amanda Waller. Can the team escape one of the most secure prisons in the world? Will they have brain-bombs before the day is over? Does axe beat mallet??? Get answers…
The Bats out of Hellthe Dark Multiverse press on, as Dawnbreaker and Hal Jordan face off to decide the fate of Coast City—and everywhere! Will the Dark Knight who should not be defeat the Emerald Knight that is? Or can Hal succeed where his compatriots failed and gain some ground against the enemy? Find out…
So I recently got a box of Batman: the Animated Series and Batman Beyond goodies from Diamond Select. I expected to like the PVC Gallery figures (like this Laughing Fish Joker I reviewed last week), but I wasn't too excited about the resin busts—an SDCC-exclusive unasked Batman, and an Old Bruce Wayne. What am I supposed to do…
Our friends at Downtown Bookworks are at it again! After redefining what the term "stupendously amazing children's book" actually means with their Little Library; after showing us that neither laughter nor its close friend Plastic Man is dead with The Official DC Super Hero Joke Book; and, after teaching us that we can, in fact, eat what…
Who is the villain in a Batman story? Is it the rogue-of-the-week, like Joker, Penguin, Riddler, or Ivy? Is it corrupt police and politicians? Batman is a complex character within himself, but his existence in a society that somewhat resembles our own forces us to question the heroism of the Dark Knight himself. What's more,…
The Dark Knights of the Dark Multiverse have brought Dark Times to the Justice League! From nightmare worlds that should never have existed, this League of Extraordinary Evil (Lady and) Gentlemen wields powers that the League can’t beat. So how can the League possibly beat them? The answer lies in Justice League #32, as “Bats…
It’s a good year to be a Batman: the Animated Series fan. We just got Mask of the Phantasm in HD home release, the whole series proper is coming to Blu-Ray soon, and there’s more merchandise available than ever before. Some of the best stuff is coming from Diamond Select, whose figures, busts, and such capture…
Will Kid Flash come home? After Wally assisted Deathstroke and nearly destroyed everything, Damian kicked him off the team. But Damian isn't in charge anymore, and Starfire and the rest of the crew want to bring their exiled friend in from the cold. Does Wally want back in? Find out in Teen Titans #13, as "The…
Wonderbat! It's the romance you've demanded here at last, just long enough for it to be broken by a dead Diana and a Bruce who's let the guano go to his brain! How did the Dark Knight of Gotham become the Prince of the Dark Knights? Find out in Batman: The Merciless #1! Spoilers ahead!…
