Last time on Justice League Unlimited… A heavily injured Time Trapper had crashed into the Justice League Watchtower. Unfortunately, his powers started going haywire and destroying the place, putting the Leaguers on-board at risk. However, out of all the Leaguers present, Mr. Terrific faces death first as the captured Parademon has an explosive birth and…

So I have made no secret of the fact that the Catwoman run up to this point has been slow and generic. There were far too many uninteresting characters, all of them new, and most of whose motives we learn far too late owing to the in medias res style of storytelling employed. The art…

Would you like to have the Green Lantern Corps explained in simple terms? You've come to the right place. The Green Lantern Corps is one of the most important forces in the DC Universe. They are more than just superheroes. They are an intergalactic police force that spans the cosmos, wielding the most powerful weapons…

Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! DC just released the solicitations for December, and part of that means necessarily revealing a lot of who will be fighting in those rounds of DC K.O. None of them are too surprising, but I think it's funny how they want to keep things close to the chest to generate…

Back when I started writing for the site, I had the pleasure of reviewing Dan Jurgens and Mike Perkins The Bat-Man: First Knight. I seem to recall that at the end of that series, someone commented that, because it was called First Knight, it would probably have a follow-up. I remember thinking to myself, "You know, I…

Here it is! The first DC/Marvel comics crossover in over a decade. For a crossover this big, we had to do a little crossover of our own. Batman News reviewers, past and present, are coming together to let you know if it's worth all the fuss. Deadpool/Batman: "The Dead of Knight" Chip: Via editorial power the…

So far in this arc a lot of our time has been spent seeing all the different Bizarro versions of various DC characters on Bizarro World. I've generally praised this aspect, as it's a lot of goofy fun that I believe works for the type of concept Bizarro is. Now that we're in the home…

Nightwing #130 marks the begining of a new age in Blüdhaven. After quelling an interdimensional crisis, Nightwing returns his attention to Spheric and the gang conflict. Now, Nightwing must confront a new mayor, a runaway superhero, an out of control police force, and a sinking feeling that something is watching him! Of course, it won't…

On Monday's release of his newsletter "Our Best Jackett", Scott Snyder talked about what it's been like writing Absolute Batman so far and where he plans on going with the series from here. He explains how the latest issue #12 (our review here) was the most difficult to write yet due to its brutality because…

The Justice League has had a lot of members, with almost every hero (and a few villains) being part of its roster at some point in time. However, some of these lineups stand out amongst all the versions we have seen over the years. Some of these you can guess pretty easily, while others I'm…

Welcome back to Upcoming Comics! Because I wanted to reread a classic (and for an op-ed piece I may or may not be writing), I decided to grab Loeb and Sale's famous Long Halloween saga off my shelf. Sometimes when you go back to something you read a long time ago, it doesn't quite hold…

Dark Patterns is making headlines. It’s inarguably been one of the most exciting DC Comics publishing moments in recent years. A certain other entertainment news outlet even recently named the incomplete series as one of the best titles of this incomplete decade. My praises of Dan Watters and Hayden Sherman’s Dark Patterns have been loud…

With the nightmare of Memento finally being extinguished, a new story arc starts with Batman and Robin #25. Fico Ossio takes over art duties as the Dynamic Duo get caught in the middle of a war of revenge. A hit man known simply as the Quiet Man has returned to Gotham to seek out those…

On the 10th of September, comics retailers received word from DC Comics that all orders for future issues of the newly released Red Hood series would be cancelled. DC Comics cancels existing orders for Red Hood #2 and Red Hood #3, and any orders for future issues of the series. DC Comics will credit retailers…

Put on your dancing shoes, because it's time to do the time warp and send ourselves back in time for another adventure in Victorian Gotham! Last time, I found myself pleasantly surprised at how much I found myself enjoying a series I had had middling to negative feelings about so far. So, what say you?…

Coming off the events of Batman: H2SH, Jason Todd finds himself out of Gotham and in the city of New Angelique. He’s looking for a new start and investigating a series of murders involving the city’s law enforcement. These crimes run deeper than anything he could’ve imagined, and he might need some help from The…

When this series began, its tone was clearly something that leaned into Snyder's propensity for over the top action and spectacle. It was camp, it was fun, and Batman fought with a battle axe while driving a giant dump truck as his Batmobile. However, as the series has gone on, I've noticed that it's started…

It doesn't matter what hero you love in the vast world of comics, nothing beats Batman's rogues gallery. From iconic foes like Mr. Freeze or The Joker, Batman tends to take on his fair share of weirdos. Obviously, they all can't be incredible. Yet, there are quite a few unsung attempts at making the next…
