21 on The Dark Knight Rises: 10 years laterOn July 20, 2012, The Dark Knight Rises, the long-awaited conclusion of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, finally hit theaters. To say that it was highly anticipated was an understatement, to be sure, as it followed one of the most critically, commercially, and financially successful movies of all time. Rumors and fan speculation were rampant in…
Eleven months and six issues later, Batman ‘89 has finally decided on a story. That’s been one of my main disappointments with the series to this point, in that it feels like it’s more a collection of loosely connected scenes without anything to tie it all together. Now, in the final issue, Sam Hamm has…
Reports are coming in that artist Tim Sale has died. Jim Lee recently reported via Twitter that Sale had been admitted to the hospital, but no other details were made available. Now, his personal Twitter account has announced that he has passed away. Sale had a long, acclaimed career in the comics industry, with some…
When discussing great Batman comics, we often focus on particular storylines or creative teams. But what about the times in Batman's history where no matter which title you picked up off the newsstands, you're almost guaranteed to get some quality Batman content? The times when different creative teams worked on different books to different ends,…
Two original graphic novels with two vastly different takes on Batman have been announced by DC Comics, and they both sound delightful in their own ways. Next spring will see the publisher release Stuart Gibbs and Berat Peckmezci's Bruce Wayne: Not Super and Jim Benton's Fann Club: The Batman Squad, both of which are aimed…

Everyone needs something that allows them to let off some steam. Some people play sports, others fish, while some cook or craft or play video games. While these activities can go hand in hand with hobbies, what one person may engage in for excitement and entertainment, another does so for the purposes of relaxation. After…
Much will be made of the delays to Batman '89 #5 in many reviews being published today, I'm sure. It's hard to talk about the issue without at least mentioning it, really, which is clearly evidenced by the fact that this is how I'm starting off my own review. I don't remember when this issue…
Welcome back to the future. Batman Beyond: Neo-Year is a new six-issue miniseries that spins out of Batman: Urban Legends #7, where the entire world of Terry McGinnis and his home of Neo Gotham was shaken up. Bruce Wayne died, Wayne Manor burned to the ground, and the entire city became sentient and set its…
I feel like I hardly need to write a preamble at this point. You all know I love the Sixties Batman television series. You know I welcome any and all merchandise based on the show. You know that McFarlane Toys have been making some pretty solid action figures based on the show, and that I…
I think he loves gold. And gold shall he receive, with McFarlane Toys' Platinum Edition 12" The Batman statue. If you're lucky, dear reader, then you too may be able to find this highly sought after collectible for display on your shelf. But is it truly 24 karats of (plastic) goodness, or is it the…
Remember Endless Winter? The crossover from 2020 where the Justice League tried to prevent… well, an endless winter? You’d be forgiven if it slipped by you, because it came and went when Death Metal was still doing all sorts of craziness to the Multiverse, even if Endless Winter was actually a ton of fun in…
As much as I love Batman, I also love the entire DC Universe, and would consider myself a DC fan first and foremost. I'm just as likely to get excited about a Jimmy Olsen comic or something featuring Jack Kirby's Fourth World characters as I am something featuring Batman and his extended cast of characters,…
When I first saw the cover for this issue a few months back, I braced myself to go on a tirade. Ghost-Maker? Really? I thought we were done with that guy. I'd hoped we were done with that guy. But no, there he is, right on the cover with Batman. Always striving to be as…
We're less than a week away from Batman's latest big-screen outing and you know what that means: lots and lots of merchandise. Given that McFarlane Toys have the DC license, of course they're going to make some sweet action figures based on the characters in the film, and they're offering quite a few different pieces…
Everyone needs to unwind and relax every now and then. Some people do so by watching television, making crafts, cooking, or even performing maintenance on an old car. Nobody finds peace and relaxation in the exact same way, so it's good to know that there's plenty out there for different tastes and preferences. In recent…
Let’s take a look at some more McFarlane figures, this time for some characters that are based on all different types of source material: two completely different versions of Superman from the comics, a Flash from a movie, another (Reverse) Flash that’s generally faithful to the comics, and a Wonder Woman design that has sprung…
DC Comics have announced that Batman, Inc. will return, which is cool. I'm all about Batman, Inc. However, rather than Batman or one of his long-established allies heading up the team, Ghost-Maker will be their leader. Ghost-Maker, who was introduced not two years ago, is the trusted head of Batman, Inc., as personally chosen by…
