Joshua Williamson’s “Price” arc continues toward it’s book-jumping crossover conclusion with a chapter titled “The Price of Vengeance” in which payment for Gotham Girl starts coming due. I’m just going to leap right in here and say there’s an incredibly disconcerting contradiction in this story and it needs calling out. Flash and Batman are under…
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.…
It started with the hashtag #DCeased and the ominous phrase “Darkseid was.” Now, after a week of cryptic tweets, Tom Taylor has finally spilled the beans about DCeased: he’s writing a DC Universe zombie story. For the record, I totally called it. Yes, the mysterious DCeased is another apocalyptic, out of continuity epic from the mind…
Earlier today, the official DC Comics twitter account debuted the cover to the much-anticipated three-part story about a young Bruce Wayne trekking across a post-apocalyptic landscape with the Joker's severed head in tow. Or at least that's as much as we can surmise from what little has been said about the mysterious project. Originally, the…
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…
Reviews and the discussions they inspire are a big part of why readers visit the Batman News comics section. So an article in which all of our reviewers engage in a discussion about that week’s titles? Why, you’d think it’s a no-brainer! And yet it took several years for the idea to cross our minds……
I need to start this post with an apology. This was going to be the grand return of Break From the Bat, covering our favorite releases from January, and it was going to post before any February releases hit shelves... But due to me picking up some additional posts here, this got pushed back so Batman-related…

Batman and the Ninja Turtles go for a hat trick as they cross paths once again in Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III, just announced by DC Comics. Where the first series focused on the heroes saving Gotham City, and the second on saving the Turtles’ New York, the third crossover sees Krang get a hold…
The current story in Detective Comics, "Mythology," has been a thrilling read since it kicked off in issue #994. Under the pen of the inimitable Peter J. Tomasi, the arc has seen Batman investigate a murder mystery that has led him to various teachers and confidants from his past. While it may not have been…
Batman and the Flash continue their team-up in this chapter of “The Price,” and I think the title is a little ironic because it might have you questioning if the story is worth… wait for it… the price. What? I write comic book reviews. Nobody said I was a comedian. Gotham Girl has gone crazy…
Jason follows the Underlife to the end of the road, and confronts a face—or three—from his past. OR DOES HE? Mystery begets mystery, crowbars fly, and you’ll feel the earth move under your feet in Red Hood: Outlaw #31. SPOILERS AHEAD Meh This is...boring. It isn’t very bad, and it isn’t very good, because it isn’t…
All right, fellow comic fans, I hope you’re ready for this, because Snyder and Jock have really done it this time! Those who’ve read my reviews on issue #1 and #2 know that I’ve been enjoying the show so far—issue #1 in particular because it offers such a great mix of psychological horror and body…
Last year, DC Comics released DC Nation ahead of Free Comic Book Day, which was a 25-cent comic that had stories from heavyweights like Tom King and Scott Snyder. Besides being a lot of comic for a dirt cheap price, DC Nation also serves as a preview for some of 2018’s biggest storylines. In an…
This week’s “Hell and Back” installment of the “Mythology” arc continues the trend of Peter J. Tomasi using rather cliché titles for what’s so far been a fairly stellar arc. But maybe this time the title is rather apropos as the story stumbles a bit now that Batman is closing in on his prey. We…
We’ve got a solid week of books ahead of us! There are some great trades hitting shelves this week, and we’re getting new issues of Detective Comics and The Batman Who Laughs! Even if I just got those two issues, I’d be pretty happy. Just being honest. So... Is it Wednesday yet? Alright, on to…
Reviews and the discussions they inspire are a big part of why readers visit the Batman News comics section. So an article in which all of our reviewers engage in a discussion about that week’s titles? Why, you’d think it’s a no-brainer! And yet it took several years for the idea to cross our minds……
Back in #57 a murder mystery was introduced, with Harley as the main suspect. Batman tracked her down and ended up taking her to the Batcave to investigate whether or not Harley really is guilty of the crime. This issue picks up where #57 left off, with Harley and Bats standing in the cave, and…
The Martian Manhunter and the Superman Hunter meet on the plains of Mars! J'onn and Lex hold a secret meeting, but why? What could they possibly have to talk about? Find out in Justice League #17! Snyder's back (at least for now) It's no secret that I've been missing Scott Snyder on Justice League for the past…
We interrupt Tom King's “Nightmare” arc to bring you the first of a four part story from writer Joshua Williamson and artist Guillem March. So just put the King digression on hold for a fresh digression about the Justice League taking on the Amazo Justice League in a battle of brawn that not only has…
It’s Super Bowl Sunday and…. I’m going to be reading some comics! Ok, I’ll watch parts of the game, but it won’t be my focus. I was pulling for the Saints and the Chiefs going into this, but since neither team made it, my interest is pretty slim. I do want to congratulate my fellow…
