7 on Robin #13 reviewAfter reuniting with Talia in the last issue Robin dives straight into Shadow War this month. Damian continues his search for Deathstroke, answers as to why Ra’s was killed, and learns more than he expected to. I’ll be honest, I found this issue a little hard to review since it’s less an issue of Robin…
When I first applied to write reviews for this site I wrote a practice review for Detective Comics and sent it in, with the hope that I could simply join the team. And now at last, I’m lucky enough to be given the opportunity to properly review the title itself. I am so excited to…
After an action packed issue last month, I expected The Joker to slow down again this month, though I didn’t realize how much the narrative would grind to a halt. There are things I enjoyed about this issue, but too often I was frustrated and felt a little let down by the events playing out.…
My excitement over Batgirls seems to be dwindling with every issue I pick up. Five issues in and I feel like the plot is in roughly the same place it was at the very start, which doesn't make for a very exciting story. The Batgirls are still fighting the same set of villains they were…
Following the fourth season of Young Justice: Phantoms, DC has announced a new comic mini-series titled Young Justice: Targets written by Showrunner Greg Weisman with Art by Storyboard Artist Christopher Jones! Fans will be delighted to learn that this series is set to take up the reins of the show by following up events of…
DC comics and WEBTOON have just announced an expansion to their partnership that started last September with Batman: Wayne Family Adventures. They will be releasing three new titles within the DC Universe starting with Vixen: NYC, and followed by Red Hood: Outlaws, and Zatanna & The Ripper. It’s no secret that Wayne Family Adventures is…
Now that the tournament is over and its instigators have been wrangled it’s time for Damian to return home. But just what kind of a Gotham is he returning to, and does he really even have a reason to stay there? I’m still enjoying this series quite a bit, and a big part of that…
Bruce has officially started his world tour to find out just who he wants to be, and begun learning the skills required to make him Batman. This month his journey takes him deeper into the mystery of The Foundling and a few steps closer to becoming the Batman we know and love. I’m covering Batman:…
With the Batgirls making headway into their investigation into Tutor last issue, will they finally catch him this time around? And what about all those other villains they keep tangling with, will they make any progress finding them this month? We’re four issues into Batgirls and honestly? It still doesn't feel like it knows what…
Now that we know who is behind A-day and everyone has arrived in Texas, it’s surely time for some answers regarding everything that’s been going on in Joker up until this point right? Right? In the fashion typical of Joker this issue does not pick up on Bane, Jim, or any of the characters it…
I love heists, the Riddler, and a good old fashioned villain team up so of course I was going to at least check out Tom King’s newest mini-series, Killing Time. Focused on Batman’s early days, the story revolves around Riddler, Catwoman, and Penguin teaming up to participate in the heist of the century! And I…
With the Lazarus Tournament over, and Mother Soul outmatched there isn't much left to do but wrap up the loose threads hanging around Robin and the rest of the tournament fighters. And what better way to do that than with a family reunion and party? Robin is one of those books that I love to…
The Batgirls are busy busy busy as they try to settle into their new home, and unravel the many mysteries surrounding them. Last month they made some headway on that, but were interrupted at the end by Tutor hypnotizing a crowd of people and even Stephanie! Just what is going on here? This issue continues…
At last, a book gives me a chance to really share my expertise: critiquing how a creative team chooses to represent my home state Texas. I’m kidding–mostly. It’s not often I get to see names and places I know as well as my own face in fiction, so there is some sense of ownership of…
Last month Damian managed to rally the remaining fighters on the island to help him take down Mother Soul’s Lazarus demon. At last faced with Mother Soul herself, Damian was suddenly transported back into the past, right in the path of not only Mother Soul, but a younger version of his Grandfather as well! Robin…
The Super Sons are reunited again in this Superman & Robin special. I’ve missed these boys together, and I’m especially interested to see how their dynamic holds up now that Jon is older than Damian. We’ve had a couple brief meetings between them, but at last it’s time to see them take on another adventure…
With the first issue of Batgirls behind us, I find myself excited to see where this series is going. Issue #1 got the trio together up, and left off with the exciting introduction of some antagonists. This next issue promises to build off all that and give us even more fun than the first, so…
After a break for backstory last month, this issue gets back to the main plot by diving headfirst into the Sampson family’s motivations and exploring Jim’s fate. With a return to the present, will the momentum pick back up or will it continue to meander forward? Let’s see. It is refreshing to be back in…
The tournament is over, but that doesn’t mean that Damian’s battles are done. With Connor as the victor, Mother Soul has raised her Lazarus Demon and plans to set it first on the fighters, and then on the world. Just how is Damian going to get out of this one? Something I love about this…
It’s here, one of the titles I’ve been asking for almost since the moment I fell headlong into Batman comics. Batgirls! At long last we are being gifted a title featuring not one, not two, but all three Batgirls together on their very own adventure. It’s safe to say I’m very excited for this series,…
