15 Years of Coverage (2010-2025)

The Batman minis are coming out in full force, and none sound as different and interesting as this. Batman: Creature of the Night was just announced by DC Comics, and it sounds like it will be a different kind of Batman story: set in Boston in 1968, it follows a young boy as he is…
Ever since he was introduced in Batman: Zero Year, Duke Thomas has seemed destined for heroism. He began as a young kid caught up in a city-wide tragedy, became one of a number of Robins, and blossomed into something new. Something... different. Now, after featuring heavily in All-Star Batman and the one-shots leading up to…
Gotham Academy is the little series that could. The story of Olive Silverlock, Mia "Maps" Mizoguchi, and the other members of the titular academy's "Detective Club" has been Gotham's shining light ever since it was first announced. Now, with tomorrow's release of Gotham Academy: Second Semester's final issue, the kids are saying goodbye. To give you an idea…
Titans Tower is falling apart. The fridge is out, the elevator has stopped working, and worst of all? No. TV. ::shudders:: What are the Titans who are also teens to do? Well, with their savings tapped dry (not worth it) and no actual discernible cash flow, they do what any of us normal chumps would:…
Dick Grayson is angry. Understandably so: since moving to Blüdhaven to try and figure out his his purpose, things haven't exactly gone his way. He thought he'd found love and a true reason to stay, though a pregnancy scare and kidnapping didn't help matters much. That's to say nothing of his stupid mouth either, as…
One of the highlights of DC's "Rebirth" initiative was seeing Dick Grayson back in blue as Nightwing. Don't get me wrong, the Grayson comic series is one of my favorite books of all time, but having Dick back in costume just feels right. In the course of a year, Tim Seeley has been steering the…
Next week begins a new arc in Justice League, where DC's finest heroes are visited by time travelers seeking to change the future. The twist? These heroes from the future... are the League's own children. Check out a finished page from Fernando Pasarin as well as his character designs for the time travelers below. Dig…
Kyle Higgins has had a pretty good couple of years. After some stellar runs on the New-52's Nightwing and Deathstroke, along with work on the digital-first Batman Beyond that was none-too-shabby either, he's had great success over at Boom! Studios with their Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers titles. Now Higgins has the chance to return to…
All-Star Batman can get ridiculous, often to its benefit, occasionally to its detriment. There's a real sense of zaniness to the book that makes it really enjoyable to read, and you get the feeling that Scott Snyder's having a blast working without a net. Usually, that translates to the page, and that's generally the case…
It's summer again, and you know what that means: Comic-Con. Yes, the biggest geek event of the year was upon us this past weekend, and with it came all sorts of news, announcements, and exclusives. Our good friends at LEGO in particular have announced some new sets featuring DC Comics character that will be due…
Beginning with October's Batman #33, Joelle Jones will provide pencils for the Tom King-helmed book. The issue begins a new arc titled "A Dream of Me," where Batman goes on a journey of self-discovery after we learn Catwoman's answer to Batman's proposal. So, yes: this is when we will learn what Selina says. Jones is…
Ignoring the fact that, you know, every day is Batman Day for most of us, the annual event has had a pretty strong showing the past few years. Batman's pretty popular after all, so it makes sense. You know who else is insanely popular? Harley Quinn. That comedic queen of crime is turning 25 this…
In a bit of a surprise, another Batman/The Shadow crossover will be coming this fall. The current miniseries from Scott Snyder and Steve Orlando is only about halfway through, so it's curious that a follow-up would come so soon after its conclusion. This time, though, the names are swapped, as Dynamite brings us The Shadow/Batman. …
25 issues already. It's crazy to think that it's only been a year since Dick took up the Nightwing mantle again. Shipping bi-monthly certainly gets you more adventures, of course, and a starring role in Titans means even more Nightwing for your buck. To celebrate a year back in blue, the ever reliable Tim Seeley…
A funny thing happens anytime I read Super Sons. I go into it expecting some great action and writing, which I get in spades, of course. What seems to slip my mind, though, is just how well-rounded a character Jon is becoming. He's been a part of the DCU for about two years now, and…
When Batman '66 Meets the Legion of Super-Heroes was announced, I was a little taken aback. Part of that was because Batman's team-up with Wonder Woman was coming to an end, and that series was... ok at its best. Frankly, I was a little burnt out. Did we need another crossover between the Caped Crusaders…
In the vein of DC's line of Bombshell statues, a new digital-first comic series based on the Gotham City Garage miniatures was just announced. Trading costumes for motorcycles and tattoos, the series will feature familiar faces such as Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, Catwoman, and even Silver Banshee as they fight for freedom in an alternate reality.…
