11 on Batman, Vol. 3: Death of the Family reviewThe Joker has returned! After enlisting the Dollmaker to remove his face back in the New 52's first volume of Detective Comics, the Clown Prince of Crime has been AWOL. Batman should know better than to expect peace in Gotham, though, and with the Court of Owls defeated, Mr. J is back to fill in…
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Whether you’re waiting for the turkey to finish cooking, or you’re trying to come to terms with how much you ate, we hope this post finds you happy and thankful! We are thankful for this site, and for each and every one of you that continue to come join in on our…
I’ll be the first one to admit that Titans is not a title I get excited to read. So far, Abnett has delivered a less-than-stellar story, and it only makes it worse when you compare this title to the Rebirth special that preceded it – and even more so considering Wally is the focus of…
All you need to do is look at the credits page for this issue of Batman Beyond, and that alone should convince you that this chapter will be well worth $2.99! I mean, come on! Who could turn this down? Batman (Bruce Wayne) is chained to the front of a freaking snow plow!…
If you're like me and love these characters to the point that you're happy with a story even if it's just about them sitting around having dinner together, then you're going to have a good time with this chapter. No, they don't have dinner together, but it is just a bunch of talking with nothing…
Writers Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti invoke the spirit of British 80s sensation Frankie Goes to Hollywood in this issue titled “Relax, Undo it!”. Among the lyrics for the original song (called “Relax”) is a verse that intones: “Live those dreams/Scheme those schemes” which probably sums up Harley’s joie de vivre pretty well. The title…
Aw yeah, Super Powers! The fantastic team of Art Baltazar and Franco are back to deliver wonderful all-ages adventures for your enjoyment. In the vein of the spectacular Tiny Titans and Superman Family Adventures, Super Powers is innocent, charming, and fun. It may also be one of the best team books DC is publishing today, and…
Damian Wayne has the ingredients for a truly super super-team, but he started himself at a disadvantage by kidnapping them all. Rather than appeal to their better angels, he cynically tricked and swiped his would-be teammates and then attempted to motivate them through insults and fear. How on Earth can the fledgling Teen Titans stand…
The “Beyond Burnside Finale” brings Hope Larson’s first Batgirl story to its conclusion. Right up front there’s a lot of cool action in this comic as Batgirl has to work out how to take down Teacher with her enhanced mental/physical abilities. Right up front I’ll say that I liked her solution. Right up front I’ll…
Thanksgiving is this week, and I honestly feel like I’ve got quite a bit to be thankful for! For starters, this will be the first holiday season (Thanksgiving and Christmas) I’ve spent with my family in nearly ten years! I can’t tell you how happy that makes me. On top of that, I’m also thankful…
Following possibly its best singular run of issues, Grayson returns for its penultimate collection. Collecting Robin War #1-2 and Grayson #13-16, A Ghost in the Tomb covers Agent 37's adventures in Gotham and abroad as he goes from training new We Are Robin recruits to uncovering the lingering mysteries of Spyral. Robin War (Robin War…
Dick Grayson has been through a lot lately: he's taken down the Parliament of Owls, been betrayed by someone he put his trust in, and has had some pretty crazy dreams. Now, what's old is new again as Nightwing returns to Blüdhaven. What new challenges will Dick encounter? What familiar faces will he meet in…
In addition to a great interview with Dan Jurgens, DC Comics has given Batman News an exclusive sneak preview of Batman Beyond #2. Check out the gallery below, which includes a chilling confrontation between Batman and the Joker. “THE RETURN” part two! Terry is tested in a way he hasn’t been since he returned as Batman.…
Without question, Rebirth has been a resounding success. With a mission focused on optimism and legacy, DC is publishing some of its best books in years, thanks in no small part to some talented creative teams. One of those creative voices is Dan Jurgens, a true comics legend. Having been involved in one of the…
Hijinks ensue as Beast Boy gains a new power: the ability to smell the future. ...wait, what? Huh. So I did read it right. Alrighty. This story is so, so goofy, and at first I thought it would be a mild diversion at best. The concept is dumb and kind of a throwaway, one-joke idea,…
In this issue of Suicide Squad, everyone goes crazy! Well, crazier than normal anyway. That naturally makes the issue itself crazy as well. Er… Also more crazy than usual. It’s crazy squared, or something like that. Look, I’m starting to hear a lot of little voices, so just know that there’s a whole lot of…
Batman #11 is better than the previous issue...but not by much. We get a continuation of the Catwoman narrative that seems to be cementing this new take as legitimate, some off-the-wall humor, and additional Catwoman antics that are sure to have any hardcore fan throwing their hands up in despair and bewilderment. From my understanding,…
There will come a day, if it hasn't arrived already, where Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason's names will be listed among the greatest comic book collaborative teams. With their work on the consistently excellent Batman and Robin and the one-two punch of the near-perfect Superman #10 and this week's not-quite-as-great-but-still-really-really-good Superman #11, Tomasi and Gleason…
Last month, our heroes found themselves observers in Superman's past. Clark got to see his father again—got to save him—and the unexpected journey seemed a serendipitous blessing for the Man of Steel. But things were not quite as serene as they seemed, and by the end, Poison Ivy revealed herself (to us, at least) as…
Optimism is a virtue. It's a trait that can be cast in an unfavorable light, coming off as hokey or unrealistic, but it's still a virtue. The idea that you can look at something or someone and believe the best about a situation is, to an increasingly cynical world, silly and naive, making optimism seem…
