6 on Batman '66 Meets Wonder Woman '77 #5 reviewThis is not the first time Batman '66 has entered the Seventies. No, the Caped Crusaders actually made a few appearances in the decade following their TV series, though they're programs that may be best forgotten. There was the short-lived 1977 animated series "The New Adventures of Batman" that, while somewhat charming, was cheaply animated…
After reading the first three pages of this week’s Batgirl, I was already gearing up to write a completely excoriating review. And then...a miracle happened! Hope Larson pulled it off. The “Son of Penguin” finale proves to be no dodo. Indeed, I had been optimistic going into issue No. 10 that there was still hope…
Yesterday was full of incredibly sad news. My heart goes out to all of the families effected by the bombing in Manchester. Senseless acts of violence always hit me hard, and only helps the themes of the comics we cover resonate with me more. I feel as though I've addressed too many acts of terror…
We have a range of titles being released next week, along with a range of quality. If there’s one title I had to recommend though, it would probably be Batman/ The Shadow. If you passed on the first issue, I highly recommend you scoop it up on Wednesday when you visit your local comic shop!…
I confess I’ve been kind of dreading this cage-match time-travel storyline since it was telegraphed months ago, but as always Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti manage to sell a premise that’s completely bonkers on the strength of Harley as a character, the relatability of her relationships with her friends and colleagues, and by working with…
If you can never get enough of Batman against Batman (or even faux-Batman), welcome to Injustice’s latest grudge-match between the caped crusader and that evil guy pretending to be him--yeah, you know the one: with all the guns and the killing and glowing red eyes. That guy who just blithely did away with Amanda Waller…
Sigh... Four weeks ago when I was writing my review for Batman #21, which was the first part of "The Button", I said this: "After waiting so long, it’s somewhat disappointing to be given so little. We don’t really learn anything we didn’t already know and no real progression occurs. Ultimately, this comic is little…
This comic is a hoot and a half! I didn't really know what to expect going into this story, but I was quite pleasantly surprised with the outcome. The first thing that I noticed was that this story has detective work in it. It seems odd to have to call this out every-time it happens…
This is a testament to how great this book is: even with a chapter that doesn't reach the highs of its predecessors, I still had more fun reading it than just about any other book out there. Such is the case with Super Sons #4, the first issue in the series that I wouldn't describe…
Coryana is an island full of mysteries and Marguerite Bennett and James Tynion IV tease out bits and pieces of the puzzle as this exotic thriller continues to play out. In this issue we particularly get a little more information about Tahani, the machete-wielding spirit of vengeance who has been haunting Kate ever since she…
A crisis on the Watchtower! Still trying to put together the pieces of their adventures with the White Mercy, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman have no choice but to put a pin in it and save the day—in space! Trinity #9, right now! Exquisite visuals After a few issues with other artists, Trinity receives a huge bump…
Deathstroke has captured the Wallys West! Determined to harness the power of the speed force to save his long-dead son, Slade tries to use the speedsters to go back in time and make things right. But with two young super-teams missing their fastest men, it's only a matter of time before both sets of Titans come…
It's boy's night in Blüdhaven as Dick Grayson and Wally West take a night off and bro down. Given the difficulties the two have been through in their respective personal lives, what with girlfriends being kidnapped or completely forgetting they exist, the boys decide to just chill out and have a nice, relaxing evening sans…
Jessica Cruz is dead! Or, she will be if Barry and Batsy can't figure out a way to save everything. Will the Flash and the Batman succeed? Will it matter? Hard to read Before I—of necessity—tear down Justice League #21, let me say that I applaud Hitch for trying to do things a bit differently.…
Below you’ll find the cover of each title being released this week. Check them out. Study them. Try your best not to let your opinion of the story effect 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…
**Updated to reflect the correct issues for Batman and Nightwing since dccomics.com can't seem to get their act together. I feel like I need to apologize for a comment I made in one of my reviews last week (JLA). I made a comment along the lines that Justice League of America is 50% of the reason I hate reviewing…
Welcome back to Break from the Bat, your monthly dose of the wide world of comics outside of Gotham! A little over a year ago, I took a short look at Mark Waid's first volume of Archie. I shouldn't like Archie—who wants to revisit high school and all of those silly emotional crises that come…
Hey Warner Bros., if you need a script for Suicide Squad 2, look no further. Rob Williams has already done that for you. You’re welcome! It should be pretty clear by now that I’m a big fan of Suicide Squad, and an even bigger fan of Rob Williams. In fact, this is probably…
Olive is on the rampage in Gotham City tracking down people from her hit-list, and the kids of Gotham Academy are abandoning the school in droves. The fact that we are taking the story away from the school adds an entirely new layer to the narrative. That's not to say we haven't ventured from the…
Crap story? Check. Bad dialogue? Check. Convenient plots? Check. Whiskey to try and forget the past twenty minutes? Check. I really hate this book. Nothing would make me happier than to see a new creative team on Batgirl & the Birds of Prey. At this point, I don’t even care if you deliver…
