After much anticipation, Justice League of America: Rebirth #1 launched this week. With some serviceable setup at the end of Justice League of America: ConceptionJustice League vs. Suicide Squad, there weren't too many surprises, but I still enjoyed Orlando collecting his team, and I'm always happy to see Ivan Reis's work (beautifully colored by Marcelo Maiolo, whose name…

But before they can move full steam ahead, Red Him and Red Her have to address the dimwitted, super-powered elephant in the room. How do you solve a problem like Bizarro? Find out, in Red Hood…
Batman #16. One issue—really, one sequence from one issue—was all it took for Tom King to wash the taste of "I Am Suicide" out of my mouth. That was by far the most fun I've had in Batman in a long time. But it also had some serious flaws, so I'm not sure what to expect…

Tempers run hot, issues get worked out, and in the end, both the world and the League are changed. But will it…
The second and final installment of Tim Burton's Batman franchise, Batman Returns employs a markedly different approach than the film that preceded it. At times, it adopts a lighter tone, with Bat-hangers and silly puns. But at others, Returns goes darker and creepier than perhaps any Batman film before or since. No character bears more responsibility…
Justice League vs. Suicide Squad drew its final breath this week, and while some of you clearly enjoyed it, I'll be glad to put it behind us. Some of the ideas were neat, but the artwork was all over the place, and I didn't like the dialogue much from the start. Babs is back in…
Last week, Eclipso emerged from Max Lord, ready to shroud the world in everlasting darkness. This week, in the sixth and final chapter of Justice League vs. Suicide Squad, Batman and the few unaffected stage a last-ditch effort to bring Eclipso down and save the world. It ends here—for better or for worse. For better... This…
Desiring to save the lives of his fledgling Titans, Damian returned to his grandfather, pledging fealty in exchange for Ra's calling off the Fist. But centuries of life have bred caution in the heart of the world's most prolific killer/crimelord/madman, and peace might just cost Robin his life—in Teen Titans #4. Pham settling in The early…
Mongul had a kid in The New 52, but he wasn't half as adorable as this deadly little scamp. And on that topic, Trinity #5 may not have been the strongest issue of the story so far, but it had a few interesting developments as Manapul delivered some much-needed exposition. In a shocking-not-shocking twist, Nightwing…
After a rough stay in Themyscira got them banished, the Trinity found themselves face-to-face with Mongul, Lord of Warworld. As we pick up our tale in this month's Trinity #5, Ivy gives Lois an explanation, Mongul gives the heroes an explanation, and the child at the center of this madness comes into focus. Watch out for spoilers! Having…
With most of the Justice League in thrall to Max Lord and the Heart of Darkness, who is left to help Steve Trevor when things go south in Washington? The Survivor tries to make it home to protect his sister and her children, but will he make it in time? Spoilers for Justice League vs.…
Last week's outing concluded with Max Lord in full control of most of the League, the original #skwad beaten, and Lobo short one head. As the curtain rises on JLVSS #5, the USA is at Lord's feet, with only Batman and a rag-tag band of scoundrels standing in the gap. Worth it for the "bastich"…
This is it—the final volume of Batman from The New 52. Its heights were higher than its depths were low, and there were stories that will be talked about for years to come. Epilogue doesn't contain any of them, but that's okay. Filled with one-offs—all but one of which stand perfectly well on their own—this last word…
So, setting Czarnian physiology aside for a moment, Batman totally blew Lobo's head off in Justice League vs. Suicide #4. While the Main Man won't be down forever, Bats still put him down, and it was spectacular. "Batwoman Begins" got off to a good and beautiful start in Detective Comics, and Red Hood's first arc concluded…
