13 on Metal tie-in Dark Knights Rising: The Wild Hunt announcedIf you're like me, you read Dark Nights: Metal #3 and thought "you know what this world needs? More Detective Chimp." Well, friend, you're in luck, because that's exactly what we're getting. First announced at New York Comic-Con, the upcoming one-shot Dark Knights Rising: The Wild Hunt will expand on the story of Metal by…
Well. This went a few different places I wasn't expecting. It's always nice when the direction a story takes surprises you. That happened a few times during this installment off Teen Titans Go! The end result is still pretty routine when all is said and done, but the relative complexity of such a short story…
All-Star Batman may have just ended (as a monthly), yet we're already getting some ideas about Scott Snyder's next great Batman story: Batman: Last Knight. Granted, details are scarce right now, but Snyder had a few choice sound bites from NYCC. CBR has more information, but this was pretty interesting: “I want it to be my…
If you don't know Dynamic Music Partners by name, then you at least know their sound. The trio, consisting of Michael McCuistion, Lolita Ritmanis and Kristopher Carter, have composed the music and themes for countless animated projects over the years. From serving as the legendary Shirley Walker's protégés on Batman: The Animated Series to their Emmy-nominated…
Heavy riffs. Driving bass lines. Infectious drum grooves. Metal. In one of the more obvious ideas of corporate synergy, it was announced today that a soundtrack is being curated for Dark Nights: Metal. Music has been a recurring theme in Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's rock opus, with references ranging from the obvious to the…
DC Comic's super-weird imprint has found some great success since launching last year. The new Doom Patrol and Cave Carson titles were almost instant critical darlings, and Mother Panic shone a light on parts of Gotham that are rarely spoken of. And, come on: Bug! is just awesome. Aside from the occasional cameo, though, these…
Well, we're reaching the end of the road. In just a few short months, Tim Seeley will no longer be writing Dick Grayson. Beginning with December's 35th issue, current Green Lanterns writer Sam Humphries will take over the title, while Seeley will be the new writer on Green Lanterns. A nice old switcheroo. It feels…
Yarr, ye scavernous bilgerats. Buckle yer swash and hoist the mainsail, prepare to weigh anchor and set course for adventure as All-Star Batman draws to a close. If you have any doubts about Snyder's sincerity with the pirate motif, just know that the very first page sees an airplane take off from a landmass with…
Let's get this out of the way up front: "the Murder Machine" is a pretty silly name. And it's not like the other Dark Knights are being subtle either: Devastator? Red Death? The Drowned? You know what these guys are about. Murder Machine is probably the most on-the-nose of the lot, but you know what?…
Dick Grayson has created some problems for himself. In the future presented in The New Order, the former Nightwing has done what he can to eliminate superpowers. Not content with setting off a bomb that takes away the abilities of 90% of the world's superpowered population, Dick is also the head of an organization that…
Stately Wayne Manor, home to billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne and his young ward Dick Grayson, is a 42,500 square foot dream home: it's a huge mansion, sits on a gorgeous cliff (depending upon who you ask), and is conveniently located on top of a cave for all of your needs as a crimefighting vigilante. Truly,…
In Batman #32, due on October 4th, we'll finally have answers to some burning questions: what did Batman do during "The War of Jokes and Riddles" that even he is ashamed of? How will Selina react to this revelation? And, most burning of all, will she accept his marriage proposal? We'll have to wait another…
If you're like me, you've seen an ad for something called Batman in Noir Alley at the back of comic books for a few months now. What is this, exactly? A noir Batman story? I'm all over that, but, again... what is it? Besides branding from Turner Classic Movies, there isn't much information in the…
Join Metropolis' favorite son and Gotham's... Robin as they traverse a dangerous new world. Can Superboy and the Boy Wonder make their way back to Earth? Just where in the universe did Kraklow send them? Are they even in the same dimension anymore? All of this and more in this issue of Super Sons, which…
The Dark Knights of the Dark Multiverse have arrived, and in their wake comes destruction. To recap: Challengers Mountain, the headquarters of the Challengers of the Unknown, has suddenly nestled itself in Gotham City. That, along with the arrival of the heralds of Barbatos, have made Gotham a war zone. I mean, even more so…
It's that time of year again: Batman Day is almost upon us. The annual event, which celebrates all things Batman (like we do, you know, every day), is this Saturday, September 23. At least, it would be, if a certain harlequin of crime hadn't taken it over. Yes, in celebration of her 25th anniversary, Harley…
Ever since it was announced that Bryan Hitch would be leaving the Justice League title, fans have been waiting with bated breath on word of his replacement. Well, the wait is over, as DC Comics have just revealed the new creative team: Christopher Priest and Pete Woods. The Eisner-nominated writer of Deathstroke will be joined…
Well this is sad. In an exclusive with CBR, it's been announced that Tim Seeley will be leaving the Nightwing title with Green Lanterns scribe Sam Humphries taking over writing duties. Funny enough, Seeley will be writing Green Lanterns, so yeah, they pretty much swapped titles. It's bittersweet, as Seeley's done some great work on…
One of 2015's biggest surprises was James Tynion IV and Freddie Williams II's Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover. What could have easily been a throwaway story was actually a genuinely funny team-up that was full of heart. In addition, it had Bane turn into an elephant, so it was also so awesome. The success of…
Mister Miracle is an escape artist. Mister Miracle is a devoted husband. Mister Miracle is a reluctant soldier. Mister Miracle is Scott Free. And Scott Free is tired. Or maybe he's depressed. It's hard to tell. I'm not even sure Scott knows how he feels or what he's going through right now; he's just there.…
