31 on Batman #51 reviewThis comic was an absolute joy! As the story unfolds, we are treated to dozens of callbacks to Snyder's previous work on the Batman title over the last 4 and a half years. If you're a hardcore fan, these echos of past stories aren't hard to recognize, at the same time, care has been taken…
Look, I know how great Tom King and Tim Seeley are. They took a high concept idea that probably shouldn't have worked and turned it into one of the best new comics in years, thanks to both spot-on characterization and a deft hand with some of DC's weirder ideas. Grayson, right from the beginning, has…
If you haven’t been reading Harley Quinn for some staggeringly inconceivable reason, this issue might be the one to make you a regular reader. Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti pull off some of their boldest, most insane antics as Harley meets the unambiguously red and black Deadpool analog Red Tool! Last issue we were left…
Think of Batman's greatest villains and who comes to mind? No doubt the Joker is there at the top, along with the Riddler, Catwoman, Penguin, Two-Face, Ra's Al Ghul, Scarecrow, and Poison Ivy as the A-list, with room even for the likes of Killer Croc, Mr. Freeze, Clayface, Mad Hatter, and KGBeast Ventriloquist to round it…
There are quite a few books we’re covering this week due to a recent influx of delays. On top of that, we’re also seeing additional delays with select titles… These recent delays are only making me want Rebirth to hurry up and start even more, but is also making more nervous for those titles that…
Heart of Hush marks the return of Bruce Wayne's childhood-friend-turned-calculating-murderous-pyscopath Tommy Elliot to Gotham (again). Still filled with hatred (and jealousy) for his former pal, Hush enlists the help of an old mentor and enacts a plan to hit the Dark Knight where it hurts the most. Beware the man who can strike from a…
Issue #4 isn't out until Wednesday, April 27th, but you can get a sneak peek right here at Batman News! Kobra has taken advantage of Katana and the Suicide Squad’s attack on his base to assault the capital and imprison Prince Brion of Markovia! As king, he can set his endgame into motion…but Katana is…
Danger continues to cross the Teen Titans, as they have finally gone face-to-face with Mr. Twister brought on by Herald’s lullaby. Before that continues, Lilith drops a bomb that she hired the organization Diablo to come help them out, without realizing that they were going to end up as targets. Honeybun and Ding-Dong Daddy are…
Harley Quinn gets to play Ghostbusters with Zatanna in Harley’s latest Black Book adventure courtesy of Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti, with new Harley Quinn artist Joseph Michael Linsner on art duties and colors shopped out to Hi-Fi. “Dispirited Spirits” is a pretty densely packed oversized issue that combines the fun tropes of the ghost…
Facing his impending death, Superman looks to his cousin, Kara Zor-El, to fill the void he is sure to leave once he's gone. But as Supergirl comes to terms with this enormous responsibility, the mysterious new super-man attempts to fill that void himself. Forgive me for thinking you needed saving. Action Comics #51 begins (approximately) where…
Who better to help Poison Ivy solve the mystery murders behind Botanical Gardens Lab, other than Catwoman? We left off our last issue with Darshan finding out Dr. Pamela Isley's real identity and now encountering Catwoman as one of her best friends. By this point, we still have no idea who has been murdering Luisa…
Batman is in this comic! Opening to the first page and seeing Batman and Flash took me completely by surprise. Usually when a major character appears in another character's comic, DC likes to shout it from the mountain tops. But this time, there was no mention at all in the solicits. Either they were actually…
Last week I kvetched about Marguerite Bennett’s Batwoman in DC Bombshells, but this week Brian Buccellato brings Injustice’s Batwoman to the fore in a big way in this issue titled “Revolutionary” (Digital Firsts No.15 & No. 16 parts 1 & 2). This is a significantly heavy Batfamily issue and there’s plenty to please the Batman…
More Rebirth news! And Nightwing! NIGHTWING!!! In addition to that, we’re getting some details about Birds of Prey – which I openly admit I’m probably the most excited about because it’s the return of Helena Bertinelli as Huntress… Seriously, super stoked for that! You have no idea how happy that makes me! Also, if you…
I’m going to keep this short and sweet because DC just released their solicitations for July! You know what that means… more Rebirth news! If you couldn’t tell, I’m SO READY for Rebirth to hurry up and get here… all of this filler story telling just isn’t doing it for me. I am concerned about…
Oof, what a weird installment. Usually, I'm pretty easy on this title, as it's pretty much what you expect it to be: a silly tie-in to a TV show, sold for less than a buck to provide at least passable entertainment for children and parents to enjoy together. There have occasionally been some genuine gems to come…
For the last couple months, DC has been dragging in sales....but the March numbers finally give me something worthwhile to report on! If you follow the Monthly Sales Report that I publish here at Batman News, you'll notice that I haven't done one in the last two months. If you've been wondering why, it's because…
Batman: Long Shadows is a five-issue collection from the pre-52 Batman book, featuring a touching Battle for the Cowl epilogue and the four-issue Long Shadows arc, in which Dick Grayson learns that some of Bruce's long-time foes are harder to fool than others. What's included Only Batman drives the Batmobile The volume opens with A Battle Within, a short…
Spinning out of last month’s short story, “Night at the Museum,” Tieri continues the narrative he set in motion pertaining to the False Face Society, and the infamous faceless mask. I was pretty excited to see him build on this, because I really enjoyed the short story (although, I still wish the entire, oversized issue…
Cat's TidBits: Our New Earth is not going so smoothly with a major war going to break loose and with the Amazonians trying to take control, things are not going to be so easy for our heroes. BECAUSE HE'S THE GODDAMN BATMAN, THAT'S WHY. I wanted to start off with this frame, because I am…
