Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club! This week we will be discussing Batman: The Cult by Jim Starlin and Bernie Wrightson, with colors by Bill Wray.

I started reading comics in 2013, in the lead-up to Man of Steel. I had always liked super heroes. I had always really liked Batman. But, even as a child, that never led to reading comics. Other than the copy of Spider-Man Versus Wolverine I received from a cousin, I didn't really have anything to do with…
What? An Upcoming Comics post? Didn’t Diamond announce that they were suspending shipments due to Covid-19? Doesn’t that mean that new releases won’t be hitting retailers for now? Yes. Yes. And yes. But… There are still a few things hitting digital this week, so we at least wanted to make sure you were aware of…
Many of us are under some form of quarantine or Stay at Home/Shelter in Place order to help stop the spread of Covid-19. It wasn't so bad at first. There was plenty of cleaning to do around the house, Tiger King just premiered on Netflix, and, most importantly, we were still able to fill our…

It’s not a secret that I’m not the greatest fan of this series. The Batman Who Laughs stuff didn’t resonate with me, and I also did not give issue #7—which started off the current arc—a favorable review. This issue, however, is definitely an improvement! Let’s have a look. Nick Derington is one powerhouse of an…
“Ugly Heart,” the story that’s currently unfolding in the pages of Detective Comics, started off strong in issue #1020. The detective work was entertaining, Two-Face was written and drawn really well, and overall it was a fine setup for the story proper. Usually I like to build some suspense asking whether or not the creative…
Batman Beyond #42 should be a slam-dunk for Dan Jurgens and Sean Chen. It brings the main cast back together, positions Terry’s return to being Batman, and puts Bruce Wayne face to face with Blight himself. Unfortunately, the script offers no surprises and leaves Chen without much to do other than go through the motions…

Batman: Creature of the Night took a long time to reach its conclusion, but it was worth waiting for.
