18 on Justice League #9 reviewLast time we saw the Justice League, they were getting the pants hacked off of them by some mysterious digital assailant. Batcave, Cyborg—even Green Lantern—all systems infiltrated, all systems being turned against the League. SOME SPOILERS AHEAD Let's start with what I like... So here's what happens: Bruce comes out from the Batcave rubble, the rest…
We’re in for what appears to be another decent week in comics! Batman #10 didn’t exactly sit well with a number of readers, so I’m curious to see how it recovers or if it does recover. Even if it doesn’t manage to find it’s footing again though, we’ve got some great nostalgia coming from Nightwing,…
Think of your favorite cartoons from when you were a kid. If you grew up in the late Eighties and early Nineties, chances are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Batman: The Animated Series are on that list. Maybe one, probably both. At least, I know that was the case for me. I loved the Turtles…
The Victim Syndicate has finally crashed the party. But who are they? What do they want? What is their beef with Batman? And where can I get one of those fancy Foxtech flying cars? (What? It's 2016. We should have flying cars by now.) The Fight I didn't buy the standoff that took place between…
I’m making it official. I’ve lost hope in Batgirl & the Birds of Prey. There will be no more optimism from this guy, because it’s only going to frustrate me more each month. You all know that I really want to like this title. I’m a champion for the Birds of Prey brand, and Huntress…
Do you love Batman: The Animated Series? What a silly question, of course you do. Do you miss seeing the character designs gracing television and the printed page? And not the New Batman Adventures designs, or even the ones from the Justice League cartoon, but the classic blue highlights/yellow chest symbol Batman? How about Nickelodeon's…
Before jumping into the interview, I'd like to fill you in on the genesis of how it came to be. Back at the beginning of August, Scott Snyder contacted the Batman-News team to talk about All-Star Batman. I had just come back from the San Diego Comic Con where my interviews with him had been…
Recently, DC Comics started an initiative to higher fresh new talent. Enter the New Talent Showcase, an upcoming collection of short stories featuring both writers and artists from the program. The one-shot, available November 30th, contains nine shorts starring a wide variety of DC characters, including Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Deadman, and Wonder Woman. Enjoy the…
Batman's latest crossover comes to a close with a chapter that is incredibly interesting, which is to both its detriment and benefit. From the beginning I've really enjoyed the snappy, whip-smart dialogue and unique visual style of this book. Unfortunately, the story began to wear out its welcome in recent weeks, spinning the narrative wheels…
Meet Violet Page. She’s rich. She’s punk. She’s part of the Gotham elite. And she’s a vigilante. As much as this might sound familiar, it probably won’t feel familiar. The only familiarity a general comic reader might connect with this title is Gotham City and Batman. Everything else about Mother Panic is odd, offbeat, dark,…
I think that Gotham Academy has lost the magic that once had me under its spell. Two of the biggest things that Gotham Academy always had going for it were a heavy dose of mystery and an abundance of exemplary character work. Unfortunately, both of these elements are severely missing from this issue. Sure, Colton…
Let's talk about that cover for a second. I mean, how great is it? Say what you will about Romita's style (believe me, I have some things to say later), but that image definitely grabs your attention. It's like those old Golden and Silver Age covers that had a million things going on that were…
We ended things last month with a rather terrifying look on Bizarro's face (apparently, he did not appreciate the "monster" label attributed to him by Artemis). We pick things up this week with a rather terrified look on Jason's face—or at least, he would probably appear terrified if the posture of his facial muscles wasn't…
My fellow Americans, today is the day that you make a choice. It is election day… but the choice I’m referring to is not your vote. The choice I’m referring to, is the choice(s) you make no matter who wins this election. You have the ability to make positive choices in your life to help…
It's easy to take advantage of it now, but there was once a time where our favorite superheroes rarely crossed paths, if ever. There weren't line-spanning crossovers, monthly guest spots, or innumerable team-up books; instead, most characters stuck to their own titles, save for rare exceptions like World's Finest. Imagine, then, what it must have…
Can science solve murder by magic? According to its publisher, that's the question at the heart of Ether, but I disagree. Matt Kindt and David Rubín's new creator-owned series may hook you in with such a premise, but its meat—at least through its first two issues—is a Holmes-esque investigator and the fantastically bizarre, mystical realm…
Oh ye of little faith, I say unto myself. I had serious doubts about this arc (and not just because Harley shaved her head for it). But Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti pulled off something quite new with this three-parter. “Undercover Punker Part 3: Satin Underground” took a story that began almost flippantly, grew into…
I found this issue leaving A LOT to be desired in so many ways. Primarily the defamation of character it so blatantly bandies about. And I'm not just talking about Catwoman. Batman gets his fair share of completely ludicrous moments as well, and they are entirely unbecoming for such a cautious and fastidious character. The entire…
I love politics. I openly admitted that last year when the primary debates were beginning, and my sentiment hasn’t changed too much since then. I read political magazines, try to keep myself glued to the news, and I follow quite a few political news podcasts. That being said, I hate this election. Between Donald Trump…
*Warning: Spoilers Ahead* We've witnessed the introduction of Raptor. We've endured the rise of Raptor. Now, we see the fall of Raptor. One of Tim Seeley's stated goals for Nightwing has been to give Dick a memorable rogues gallery. Given how great of a character he is and how long he's endured in the comics…
