6 on Cover Talk: January Week 2 2019A little over a week ago, we held the very first Cover Talk of 2019! This was just the first of many polls that will ultimately decide the Top 25 Covers of 2019! So, without further ado, here are the top covers you picked from January 2, 2019! Below you’ll find the covers for January…
I’ve been in a very special hell… jury duty. Ugh. This is my first time being summoned and it’s the absolute worst. No offense to our judicial system, but man… It’s a pain. Where’s Batman when you need him? Just scare the be-Jesus into criminals so they stop their crime! Anyway, this set me back…
Batman has broken free of the Scarecrow's toxins, but can he shake what he saw while he was under? Would Gotham truly be better without the Bat? Answers abound—from several quarters—in Batman: Kings of Fear #6, as the miniseries wraps up. It's a miserable life If you're just now checking in with this book, here's the…
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……
A heist worthy of Batman has occurred, and now it's up to the collecting community to help solve. Pedigree Comics’ Comic Art Consignment Director, Rand Lawrence of Boca Raton, Florida shared a letter with Bleeding Cool about what happened recently to his impressive collection of Batman and Detective Comics issues. I had probably the worst…
Ric Grayson continues his misadventures in this week’s Nightwing #56, and before the current arc ever really gets going, it ends… Because, apparently, the book doesn’t have enough problems as it is. It’s no secret that I haven’t enjoyed Nightwing ever since Dick Grayson was shot in the head. I know some people are enjoying…
Starman heats up, and the Hawks get savage! At home and abroad, the Justice League is beset by should-be-allies! How will they get out of this mess? And what secret lies at the center of Thanagar Prime? Find out in Justice League #15! A good story, adequately written I feel as though I'm repeating myself, but…
This review was originally posted on Comics Now. A beat-up old pickup truck winds through the streets of Metropolis. At the behest of a pursuing police officer, the unseen driver pulls over to the side of the road. After a conversation about a busted taillight and the questionable safety of the vehicle, the officer demands…
There are two Batman (or Batfamily) books out this week that are high energy and with lots of forward momentum. While one is better than the other, they are both incredibly entertaining issues that will please fans of both properties. The superior issue, for the record, is Young Justice #1, which takes already high expectations…
Batman has bad dreams. This is one of them. Here’s the thing. I’ll be the first person to complain about boring rote fan service or books that don’t take chances (though I equally have no problem with “safe” stories done well). In a weird way this book irritates me less than, say, the now-notorious Batman…
If you’ve been wanting to catch up on some back issues, but don’t have the scratch to blind buy from your comic shop’s quarter bins, then I have good news for you: DC Comics is now available on ComiXology Unlimited. For a small monthly fee, you’ll have access to tons of DC Comics content, along…
On the heels of the return of Young Justice the television show, we now get the return of Young Justice the book! I’m super excited for this, and can’t wait to discuss it at the end of the week in This Week In Comics! Other than that, we have the finale of Batman: King of…
Below you’ll find the covers and variant covers for this week. Check them out. Study them. Try your best not to let your opinion of the story affect your thoughts on the cover, then vote for your favorite. If you’re like me, and can’t decide on just one, then you can select multiple covers if…

Heroes in Crisis #4 hit shelves today, and it’s, unfortunately, my least favorite issue of the series. Ironically, it will probably be the least controversial issue, so… that’s good, right? There have been many complaints about Heroes in Crisis since its debut. A number of people were immediately repelled by the gratuitous deaths of beloved…
Batgirl #30 marks the beginning of a new arc, ‘Old Enemies.’ I really enjoyed Mairghread Scott’s first storyline but I wasn’t enamoured of Wyrm or Grotesque so I’m delighted that this story will be dealing with established villains. The first to be introduced is Jason Bard. This is the New 52 version of the character,…
Peter J. Tomasi kicks off the countdown to issue no. 1000 in the second part of his “Mythology” arc, titled “Ring Them Bells”. And the bells are definitely tolling a death knell, as whoever is targeting Batman by playing on Bruce Wayne’s past demonstrates their deadly intent. We still don’t know much about who this…
How was everyone’s holiday? I had a great – yet busy – Christmas with my family, and as weird as it was to not have any new comics from DC on Wednesday, I appreciated the break. This week, however, we’re jumping back into the groove with more reviews, another This Week in Comics, and the…

All right fellow comic book fans, it’s Harley Quinn time again. This issue is a one-shot that is very new-reader friendly in that it doesn’t go out of its way to reference past events. The issue features some characters that appeared previously, but new readers don’t necessarily need to know anything about them to understand…
