43 on Batman: The Dark Knight Miniseries by Tom Taylor and Andy Kubert Debuts This AprilDo you know who we really like over here at Batman News? Batman. Shocking, right? You know who else we really like? Tom Taylor and Andy Kubert. Tom Taylor is easily one of DC's best writers at the moment and Andy Kubert has proven to be a legend in the world of comics. Considering that,…
And we’re on to week 2 of Future State. What title are you looking forward to reading this week? Or… Will you be opting to dive into some back issues instead? Alright, on to business. This week’s releases are listed according to our anticipation scale, with titles listed in alphabetical order within each sub-header. For…
For some reason, we got the 2021 annual in 2020… I guess DC just wanted to rush this out for a sales bump? Or, perhaps, they felt that waiting a few months would make the story come a little too late? Regardless, this issue features Clownhunter’s origin, and after reading it, I’m not sure it’s…
Well, hello 2021! We’re kicking the year off with Future State, and while I know there are plenty of nay-sayers out there, I’m actually a little excited to see if there’s anything fun or worthwhile in these stories. Are you picking up any Future State titles, or will you wait to see what the general…
Uh…. Yeah, I’m not too excited about this week’s releases. Alright, on to business. 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 talent credits, a random comment (or rant), and the Batman News team member…
I’m keeping things brief again this week. My day job is in sales management, and when you’re living in a Covid-19 world during the holiday season, your free time is practically non-existent. So, there won’t be any assessments or comments on the titles because… well… I’m on my lunch break, and I’m either going to…
Honestly… Burn it. Just burn it. Do yourself a favor and just burn it because this book is awful. The Story This issue starts off with another flashback between Bruce and Ghost-Maker. AKA: another failed attempt to try and get us to understand why these two men are supposedly great friends. I don’t buy it.…
We’re getting closer and closer to pausing/ wrapping up the current status quo, and “Endless Winter” isn’t turning out to be as good as I was hoping it would be. So, will the one-two punch of “Endless Winter” and Future State hold readers’ interest or just serve as a jumping-off point? I’m concerned it will…
When it was announced that Batman: Black and White would be returning, I was really excited! I tend to love Batman: Black & White because it gives the writer a chance to come in and deliver a short, focused story that is centered on a single theme or characterization. It’s similar to the anniversary issues,…
Covid has me running circles at my day job since a number of employees are quarantined and we’re in our peak season, so I’m keeping this short and sweet this week. There won’t be any commentary on the titles this week, but I will drop them into the anticipation scale. Alright, on to business. This…
We’ve reached the third chapter of “Ghost Stories” by James Tynion, and this is probably my least favorite issue in this arc. To be clear, I already wasn’t crazy about this arc or this run, so… yeah... The previous issue ended with Clownhunter going after Harley. Ghost-Maker going after Clownhunter. And Batman going after Ghost-Maker.…
I hope everyone had a happy and safe Thanksgiving. I know it was probably smaller than many of us would have wanted, but it’s just a sign of the times and safety is important. But, with Thanksgiving behind us, that means that winter is coming! Endless Winter, not Game of Thrones. Yes, that’s right, we’re…
We’ve reached the end of Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo’s Suicide Squad! Does the creative team deliver a satisfying conclusion or does the book crash and burn on its way out? Find out below! Despite stating otherwise in interviews, there’s no way that DC – or Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo’s for that matter –…
Thanksgiving is this Thursday for those of us here in the states! That means many of us are out of school or will have a long weekend, which allows for plenty of time to read some comics! It might even allow time for some of you who have considered joining our review team to actually…
Batman #103 can be deceiving. The front half of the story contains some fast-paced entertaining action, which can make you think this is a solid book. But the moment you actually pay attention to what’s taking place, you realize that there’s a quality issue that will ultimately become pretty damning to the remainder of the…
Wherever you look, there are inspirational teams all around us. The Justice League. The Outsiders. The Titans… But how would you like the join the best team of them all? The Batman-News Comic Review Team. Well, here’s your chance. We’re looking for the next Casper, Matina, Michael, or Nick… and that person could be you!…
You know, Punchline is a character that I really want to like, but every time I try to dive further into the character, I find myself disliking her more and more. And I don’t mean in a “she’s such a good bad guy that I dislike her” sort of way. No, that would be a…
We have a light week this week. The Punchline one-shot is coming out, and I’m curious to see what the response is for it. Will it sell a lot, or will it just kind of flounder? I guess we’ll find out on Tuesday/ Wednesday. Also, the trader for Three Jokers is hitting shelves this week.…
New week. New books. But… Honestly… Aside from DCeased and potentially an interest in Ghostmaker’s debut… Is there anything you’re actually excited for? Now, I don’t intend to be negative, however, the more I talk to people, the more I hear, “I just want to get to____.” It seems like more and more people are…
This is the penultimate issue of Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo’s Suicide Squad, and they don’t hold back from delivering some hard knocks! The Story Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo have delivered an insanely entertaining run on Suicide Squad! It’s a run that has been action packed, shocking, engaging, and even heartfelt. With the introduction…
