These books will now include access to a digital copy of the book on ReadDCEntertainment.com via digital code so fans can access their favorite stories in print and digital form anytime, anywhere.

Another week, another set of releases! This week we get the second half of Batman and Catwoman’s sexcapade on rooftops, plus another chapter of “Bludhaven” in Nightwing! I’m excited by the release of Nightwing alone, so of course I’m looking forward to Wednesday. On a separate note, we recently posted the Top 25 Covers of…

This is it—the final volume of Batman from The New 52. Its heights were higher than its depths were low, and there were stories that will be talked about for years to come. Epilogue doesn't contain any of them, but that's okay. Filled with one-offs—all but one of which stand perfectly well on their own—this last word…
Welcome back to Break from the Bat, our monthly look at what's happening in the wide world of comics outside of Gotham. I had a tough time picking a book to feature this month, because there were two that I really loved. So while it doesn't get the place of honor, be sure to read…
With all of its changes and returns to status quo, one of the most enduring mysteries of Rebirth has been "the button." The Comedian's blood-smeared smiley-face pin, one of the most indelible images from Watchmen, was discovered in the Batcave and has been mysterious since. This April, the Batman and The Flash titles will cross over…
This is going to sound strange, but nothing inspires me to write comics more than when I read a bad comic. I felt this way while reading Anne Nocenti’s Catwoman. I felt this way when reading Sean Ryan’s New Suicide Squad. And I feel this way when I read Batgirl and the Birds of Prey.…
“This reminds me of the old days.” That single line describes this issue better than anything I can possibly pull together. Titans #7 is head shoulders above any other issue in this series to date. If this is a sign of what’s to come, then we are all in for a wonderful treat! The…
I’m going to be honest, Rob Williams did not have an easy job in writing this story… assuming he was told the parameters of what he needed to write, and what he could/ couldn’t disclose by his editors. But don’t worry, this review isn’t going to be a giant excuse for the issue’s “shortcomings” simply…
Batwoman Begins is a two part story being featured in the pages of Detective Comics that will most likely lead directly into the solo Batwoman book that is starting in mid-March, preceded by a one-shot Rebirth book in February. Both this story and the subsequent Batwoman series will be written by James Tynion IV and…
The battle for Bizarro raged last month, and Jason raced back to his cave looking for the cure. Unfortunately, Black Mask followed him, and as we pick up the story in Red Hood and the Outlaws #6, everyone's favorite skeletal low-life gloats over our (apparently) defeated hero. But Jason isn't one to stop banging his…
Lord Zedd has it out for Zordon and he’s got an army of thralls to overthrow the Power Rangers’ peacekeeping on Earth, but never fear: the Justice League is here! Or there. Because teleportation is going to make this crazy crossover happen! Sound like the zany plot of a Saturday morning cartoon? Welcome to the…
A short stay in Amanda Waller's custody last week segue's directly into this week's long-awaited collision between the "Justicide Squeague" and the Wall's original band of losers. The fight is a massive one, and before it's all over, feelings will be hurt, alliances will be forged, and someone's going to need some eye drops. Justice League…
A lone, dark figure begins to come into view, still largely shrouded by the thick snow. The blistering winds whip a long, black cape back and forth. The frigid temperature, which is no doubt well below zero, likely feels even colder. This is not a place for man, this cold, dead place. Yet a man…
The time has come… This is going to be a battle royal of Batman themed covers, and while I typically have an idea of how the votes will go, I honestly have no clue how you guys are going to vote for this. Anyway, below you’ll find a ton of covers to vote on for…
I’m super excited for this week’s releases, but most of that excitement is because of two titles: Detective Comics and Justice League/ Power Rangers. While Detective takes the first steps leading into Batwoman, Justice League/ Power Rangers brings together another crossover dream! I. Can’t. Wait. And I’m hoping someone (*cough* Batman *cough*) refers to the…
The Dark Knight returns to take on Mr. Bloom! With Gordon and Gotham against the wall, Bruce's blank mind is jogged by a robin and a choo-choo, and the city that never gives back gives back Batman, reborn (not to be confused with that other time Bruce died and came back). What's included? Bloom collects…
Babs is back in Burnside. After her sojourn in Asia and a memorable flight with Poison Ivy, Batgirl comes home to meet new challenges and new foes. Batgirl #7 doesn't come out for a few weeks, but enjoy this sneak preview in the meantime. Written by Hope Larson and illustrated by series newcomer Christian Wildgoose,…
Break out your beach blankets and suntan lotion, work on your volleyball game, because it's time for spring break. I... has Garth ever been to the beach? Borscht? Ok then... And wait, it's January. Spring break is in, what, March? I don't know, I haven't had one in over a decade so I forget, but…
This issue is essentially Catwoman's last night of freedom on the town before getting sent off to the big house...being shipped up the river...submitting to the slammer...(insert your own preferred jailhouse terminology here.) What could the woman who has stolen everything that her heart desires possibly still crave? Any Batman fan worth their salt knows…
