10 on Nightwing #59 reviewYour enjoyment of this issue will depend on your stance with a number of things involving Nightwing at the moment. Despite your stance though, you can’t deny that Dan Jurgens brings a much better aesthetic to the table than previous writers. That, alone, deserves to be recognized. DC is continuing to run with this Ric…
In this chapter of Batman, we get the return of naked Bane. I’m going to try my best to prevent from sounding like a broken record here, but after weeks of providing commentary on “Knightmares,” it’s becoming more and more difficult to do so when I’m forced to critically discuss a story that does nothing…
The Game of Thrones premiere was last night, and that’s essentially all my social media feeds consisted of. I… Have never seen a single episode. Is that weird? Am I an anomaly? Do I read too many comics? (Trick question. You can never read too many comics!) Anyway, if you’re a GoT fan, I hope…
This arc may contain Batman’s “Knightmares,” but I can’t help but feel that they’re actually my nightmares. Tom King wraps up “Knightmares,” his self-proclaimed “arc of one-shots” with this issue. Based on that description alone, I’d hoped that we would get some type of zinger or reveal that would make this feel like an actual…
We have a heavy Batman presence this week! With Batman, Detective Comics, and The Batman Who Laughs all hitting shelves, Bat-fans far and wide should be happy! This week’s releases are listed according to our anticipation scale, with titles listed in alphabetical order within each sub-header. For each title, I’ll include the official solicitation, the…
We’ve got a bit of a light week in terms of full reviews this week. With the absence of Batman this week, the only books we’ll provide full coverage for is Justice League and Harley Quinn. That being said, we’ll have plenty to cover for This Week in Comics, and there are quite a few…
It's Batman's 80th birthday! What better way to celebrate than by having your favorite comic review team come together to discuss the landmark Detective Comics #1000? Well, that's what we're here to do! So grab your bat party hat, a piece of bat-birthday cake, and your best bat-buddy, and join us for this conversation! “Batman’s Longest…
Heroes in Crisis? More like King in Crisis. This is definitely a Tom King book, and I don’t mean that in a positive way. That’s not to say that he’s a terrible writer. King has written many incredible comics. In fact, if I were to make a top ten list of my favorite comic books…
This is a very important week! Yes, it is the week in which Detective Comics #1000 releases, but it’s also important for a reason that is personal for all of us here at Batman-News. This week, we say goodbye to one of our original team members… Elena. Back in 2014, Andrew Asberry was a machine,…
Let’s be honest, Nightwing is better now than when DC started this whole Ric Grayson stint, but it’s still far from great. On the surface, this story might appear to be decent, but when you start digging in, it quickly falls apart. And no, Joker’s Daughter definitely doesn’t help. Two huge problems continue to plague…
So… Tsujihara is out at Warner Bros. How will this affect the future of DC films? New leadership often involves people bringing in their own respective team members, so could we potentially see major changes within the next year? Only time will tell. The appointment of Tsujihara’s replacement could be very telling, so as more…
Pulling this post together is one of the things I’ve grown to look forward to more than anything. I get to cover comics without approaching them with a hypercritical eye. If I don’t like something, I simply don’t have to write about it. If I love something, then I get to gush over it… And…
We have a light week in terms of coverage this week, so I’m curious to hear what each of you will be picking up. With Detective Comics #1,000 not releasing until the end of the month, I’m definitely going to be missing that book this week… I mean, it is the best Bat book on…
Happy March everyone! We’ve had some terrible weather throughout the U.S. the past few days, so I hope everyone is safe. Between the tornadoes in the south and the extremely cold temperatures up north, there are probably a number of people who could use some help. If you’re capable of doing so, I urge you…
“The Price” wraps up in this chapter of The Flash. After four issues of a “story” that fails to do exactly that – tell a story - one must simply ask the question: what was the point of this? I’ve been outspoken concerning how I feel about Josh Williamson’s approach to writing. Simply put, he’s…
I had high hopes that this issue, based on its synopsis, would finally move the mark for Heroes in Crisis. I had hoped that the “mystery” of this story would finally grow some legs and allow for plot progression. I had hoped that the various plot threads would fall into place after the set-up of…
This week, we’re getting two issues that should lead into some interesting developments. One, obviously, is Detective Comics which is on the cusp of its 1,000th issue, and the other is Heroes in Crisis, which will hopefully receive a jolt of momentum now that we’re in the back-half. Will it actually happen though? We’ll have…
Despite the fact that we’re still having to endure this Ric Grayson nonsense, Nightwing #57 takes a number of steps in the right direction. To make things even better, we have Travis Moore covering art duties! I was hesitant to say this, but… things are looking up, people! It’s no secret that I’ve hated Nightwing…
I'd love to say I'm excited about the books we're covering this week... But... I'm not. The best thing on our slate is Justice League, unfortunately, I fear it will be bogged down by Tynion's pen. Then we have Batman's "The Price of Justice" continuing (gag), as well as Nightwing... As in, "Ric Grayson" Nightwing.…
We’re back with another set of covers as we work to decide the Top 25 Covers of 2019! Last week we had a ton of covers to vote for as we played catch-up for the month of January. Did your favorites advance? Find out below! Below you’ll find the covers for February week one and…
