5 on Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys #6 reviewWelcome to the conclusion of the Gang of Harleys six-issue saga. This is the fun part where we get to look at the finale issue and all of its crazy Harley-esque weirdness, but also at the series as a whole to see whether the story holds up over the half-year that we’ve spent with it.…
From days of long ago...from deep within the bowels of Gotham City...comes a legend. The legend of Batman, Defender of Gotham! A mighty hero. Loved by good, feared by evil. As Batman's legend grew, peace settled across Gotham. The Bat-Family was formed in order to maintain that peace. But one day a horrible new menace…
Let's get this out of the way: there is no dancing here, and therefore, no Batusi. Perhaps next week, but as it stands, that cover makes a promise and doesn't deliver. Yet. There are deathtraps galore, though, as Batman '66 Meets Steed and Mrs. Peel approaches the home stretch. With all the players on the…
Batman Beyond has essentially felt like it’s been in perpetual change ever since DC announced that Terry McGinnis would become part of continuity in Futures End. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing though, considering the book has gotten better and better over time. Futures End initially featured Terry traveling back in time to stop Brother…
Coming this January, Barbara Gordon will complete her sojourn through Asia and return home to Burnside. With a new arc comes a new artist, as Rafael Albuquerque will leave the title and make way for Christian Wildgoose (Gotham Academy). Wildgoose will team with series mainstay writer Hope Larson to kick off "Son of Penguin". From DC's…
Rebirth marches on this week with Teen Titans, a franchise as much in need of a fresh start as any other. Can an updated roster and some fresh creators reinvigorate this once-storied series? Read on! Cast of characters Like many of its fellow Rebirth one-shots, Teen Titans is light on plot and heavy on character…
It is officially fall, but it is over one hundred degrees here in LA. I can’t tell you how wrong that is. Based on the lengths I’m taking to avoiding going outside, you’d think there was a plague that has ravaged the city. I’m just hiding away in my apartment with all of the curtains…
It's the team-up you never asked for, featuring the status quo changes that nobody wanted! In a stroke of uncannily bad fortune, Bruce Wayne has died and Superman has lost most of his power and had his secret identity exposed at what is effectively the exact same time. But what happens when the new Batman…
I’m moving back to Texas in three weeks, so everything is a little hectic for me at the moment. I just wanted to apologize and ask you not to throw batarangs at me since I’m a little behind with this post. Anyway, December looks pretty exciting! With Rebirth launching successfully, and the creative teams delivering…
The next great Batman story, "I Am Suicide," begins in BATMAN #9 by Tom King and Mikel Janin this October! In order to save Gotham Girl Batman recruits a team to break into the most impenetrable prison in the world and steal from one of the Dark Knight’s greatest foes… Bane. "She’s been infected by the…
Here come the Monster Men! Batman #7 marks the first part of a six part story arc that is currently being presented in the pages of Batman, Nightwing, and Detective Comics. While I'd like to spend some time breaking down the story and getting into the nitty-gritty of it all, the truth of the matter…
I have probably said this before, but or sheer action entertainment value, sometimes you just can’t do better than Injustice and this week’s issue is a perfect example. Digital Firsts 35 & 36 (“The Plan” and “Suicide Mission”) combine into a single story that’s primarily an excuse to throw Deathstroke into the mix. Like we…
Harley takes gang member Bolly Quinn on an international adventure to take down the call center conglomerate in Mumbai that has been ripping off the senior citizens at “Dr. Quinzel’s” day job. This was a plot thread that was planted before “Rebirth” but then got subsumed by the Hot Dog Zombie Apocalypse that has been…
NOTE: If you haven't read Batman #7 yet, go ahead and do so before you read further. You won't be totally lost, and this issue of Nightwing stands on its own just fine, but it's best to get the full story. The Monster Men are here in the first big crossover since DC Rebirthed over…
Earthquake-makers. The Kindred. The Purge. Zodiac Crystals. Stolen power. Bryan Hitch's first Justice League story has had no shortage of ideas, yet has often come up wanting in the details. Can the final installment of "The Extinction Machines" give us a satisfying conclusion and vindicate Hitch's inaugural arc? Mild spoilers ahead. It's too easy With Clark…
How did Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman become friends? The New 52 largely yadda-yadda'd the development of their relationship, but the return of pre-Flashpoint Superman and his emergence as the only Superman in the Rebirth DC Universe provide the perfect opportunity for stories that establish and explore the chemistry of the Justice League's biggest three. A slow start…
The Dynamic Duo and those altruistic Avengers Steed and Peel finally head across the pond to London in pursuit of Ms. Gough, Lord Ffogg and Mr. Freeze in the eighth installment of Batman '66 Meets Steed and Mrs. Peel. Will our heroes uncover the villains' nefarious plot? Can they keep the White Star Diamond safe?…
I don’t know about you, but I’m still on a high from last week’s releases! Detective Comics was EPIC! I think we all knew it would be – despite our trepidations concerning Tim – but it still managed to blow me away! Speaking of Detective Comics, this past Saturday was Batman Day, and I got…
He's one of Batman's oldest foes, but he was once a friend. Scarred by abuse and acid, Harvey Dent (née Kent) was once Gotham's promising young District Attorney. A criminal's retaliation rendered his face divided, but even reconstructive surgery could not repair his damaged psyche. And so over the years, Two-Face has proven to be…
If you haven't been reading Batman '66 Meets Steed and Mrs. Peel, do yourself a favor and catch up. The eighth chapter releases Monday, September 19th, so you have plenty of time, and it's been great fun so far. Plus, each installment is just a buck, and you can't beat that. A large part of the series'…
