9 on Upcoming Comics: October 26, 2016The day has finally come! My stuff arrives today! I’ll be able to sit on my couch, watch my tv, sleep in my bed! I’ll have my desk so I can sit and write these posts and reviews in peace, rather than try to write while balancing my laptop on the arm of a couch,…
I’ve been in a bit of a black hole lately. I’m living out of a suitcase at the moment, and my phone doesn’t get a signal at my parents’ house, so every time I go into town, I get flooded with text messages and voicemails. I sat down today to start pulling together this week’s…
I’m in Texas now, and I get the keys to my new apartment on Wednesday! Until then, I’m staying at my parents’ place. Most of you are probably thinking, “What? You’re staying with your folks? That’s got to be rough.” But actually, it’s not too bad… Well… Except for their dog. This dog is the…
I'm dipping my feet into graphic novel reviews, and I'm going to focus on some of Batman's greatest allies. To kick things off, I figured I would start with Tim Drake. This might seem like an odd place to start - I mean, any sensible person would start with Nightwing or Batgirl - but considering…
Suicide Squad has turned into one wild ride! While the first issue made me a little nervous, every issue since then has proven that the debut was just a fluke. This chapter does drop a little in quality compared to the previous two issues, but it's still a good, fun read! If you haven't been…
Oh Batgirl & the Birds of Prey, I just don’t know how to feel about you! I love the idea of you and there are moments when I genuinely enjoy you, but then there are times when I wonder what your actual goal is in this universe. Birds… Don’t take this the wrong way, but…
Well LA, this is a wrap! My entire apartment is packed in boxes, and movers come tomorrow morning! After that, I’ll have a long drive ahead of me! Once I get settled, I’ll go back to being more social on here and on twitter. I’m also behind in posting the September Variant Cover Poll and…
I know I say this each year… But how in the hell are we already in October? This year has FLOWN by! This past month, in particular, has been incredibly fast for me since I’m preparing to move. I’m trying to balance work, planning/ organizing, packing, and life in general. On top of that, my…
We are three issues into Titans, and every issue has left me feeling frustrated. Yet again, I find myself struggling to find the best way to express my opinion with this title because it isn't terrible, but it is far from great. Whenever a book falls on either side of the quality spectrum, it is…
Oh my squad, now this is a suicide mission! It’s the Suicide Squad vs Zod… or as I’m referring to it, Suicide Squad #3: the issue where people fall in love with Katana. After last month’s cliffhanger, I was eager to get my hands on this book! Did it deliver? In some ways, yes. In…
Batman Beyond has essentially felt like it’s been in perpetual change ever since DC announced that Terry McGinnis would become part of continuity in Futures End. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing though, considering the book has gotten better and better over time. Futures End initially featured Terry traveling back in time to stop Brother…
It is officially fall, but it is over one hundred degrees here in LA. I can’t tell you how wrong that is. Based on the lengths I’m taking to avoiding going outside, you’d think there was a plague that has ravaged the city. I’m just hiding away in my apartment with all of the curtains…
I’m moving back to Texas in three weeks, so everything is a little hectic for me at the moment. I just wanted to apologize and ask you not to throw batarangs at me since I’m a little behind with this post. Anyway, December looks pretty exciting! With Rebirth launching successfully, and the creative teams delivering…
I don’t know about you, but I’m still on a high from last week’s releases! Detective Comics was EPIC! I think we all knew it would be – despite our trepidations concerning Tim – but it still managed to blow me away! Speaking of Detective Comics, this past Saturday was Batman Day, and I got…
Ah! Praise baby Jesus! This is much better than issue #1! If you remember, I had some unkind words for the previous issue because nothing happened. We had twelve pages of a story, and barely got a set-up, so I grew concerned that there would hardly be any plot progression with each issue moving forward.…
It’s a new month, and a new issue! Oracle is still operating in Gotham, and Batgirl isn’t going to allow it. Considering how personal this mission is for Barbara, she’s enlisted Black Canary to help track down Oracle, which leads them right into the path of Huntress - who happens to be on her own…
We have an epic week ahead of us! First, there are quite a few books we’ll be covering this Wednesday, and I’m pretty excited to read most of them! Mostly, I can’t wait to see what happens in Detective Comics! I’m crossing my fingers and holding my breath to see what happens to Tim. After…
The current run of Batman Beyond comes to a close with “Wired for Death: Epilogue.” Up to this point, Jurgens and Chang have delivered an incredibly satisfying story, and I'm honestly a little sad to see this book transition because I’ve been enjoying it so much. Tim Drake is currently operating as Batman following the…
There have been some nice announcements from DC within the past week! In case you missed it, DC will release a Justice League vs Suicide Squad mini-series event throughout December and January. And if that weren’t exciting enough, we also found out that this event will lead into… Justice League of America! You all know…
School is in session, so you know what that means… Homework. But before you moan and groan, you might actually enjoy our version of homework over here at Batman News. So what is this weekend’s homework assignment? Check out this awesome preview of Gotham Academy: Second Semester #1! GOTHAM ACADEMY: SECOND SEMESTER #1 Written by BRENDEN FLETCHER,…
