Tiny Titans: Return to the Treehouse #6 Written by Art Baltazar and Franco Illustrated by Art Baltazar And so we begin the month of November, and the first of at least three of my books that are ending. Thankfully, this miniseries ends only to set up the return of the Tiny Titans in a future…
Print issue No. 3 collects the Digital Firsts 5 & 6, “The Coin” and “Xanadu”. If you’re still fencing-sitting about Injustice, this isn’t the place to jump in (start with Year Three issue No. 1, or, better yet, pick up the four trades leading up to Year Three first). My short summary: Superman has become…
I know what you’re thinking… I’m late with this post because of work, or I partied too hard for Halloween. Well, if you thought either of those, then you’re wrong! I moved into a new apartment over the weekend, and finally have everything settled! My body feels like Batman and Bane both beat the crap…
It is incredibly strange for someone who does not read much of the other weekly titles that World’s End can feel so fast-paced and yet have nothing happen. There’s always a feeling that something is happening regardless of which one of the five alternating plots is consuming my attention at one particular moment, but by…
If you are like me, seeing our very own Dark Knight on the cover of Futures End makes you excited. Here's a series that's included several characters I've known very little about, so to see Batman on the cover, I was stoked. The truth, however, is that Futures End has its steady agenda in mind; it doesn't get hyped up…
Harley Quinn gets her first annual and she’s going to spend it inviting you to huff her pages in this oversized issue titled “Scratch & Snuff”. This time around Harley is on a mission to rescue her bestest friend ever from the clutches of evil scientists. The book features a guest appearance from Poison Ivy…
Deus Ex Machina is an ancient theatre term. The literal translation is god from the machine and the machine refers to a device typically used in the last act of a play in order to have a god descend from the heavens and right all the wrongs that the humans had done in order to…
Let's take a moment not to talk about an individual comic or a graphic novel, but the latest Batman encyclopedia from DK Publishing. Batman: A Visual History by Matthew K. Manning Foreword by Frank Miller Whereas I no longer have any use for a traditional encyclopedia thanks to Wikipedia, I still greatly enjoy having a…
It’s one of those magical 5th Wednesday’s that we get from time to time, so it’s a light load in new releases! There is some smelltastic goodness we can look forward too though. And with three weekly titles, you can always count on them! This week’s releases are listed in order of what I’m most…
We’ve got some great and exciting things coming your way on Batman-News.com! I’m not going to give too much away, but we’re going to be covering some reviews of classic issues/arcs (if you saw Brandon’s latest review of Eternal, then you already know this), and we will also implement some fun, interactive posts to the…
Multiversity #1 "The Just" Written by Grant Morrison Art by Ben Oliver Multiversity gives us another glimpse into another universe. "The Just" focuses on a Utopian type world where super heroes are no longer needed thanks to an army of robot Supermen (as in Superman, but plural). The Superman robot army has protected the Earth…
Well, the steam had to run out some time. After a strong start, a few of the cracks in the quality of the earlier issues have become full-fledged problems. This is just my personal observation from my limited reading of Future’s End and to a greater extent Batman Eternal, but these weekly books suffer from…
What a fun and exciting read! I'm reminded of an old parable about building a house on sand and rocks. In the parable, the house built on the rock stands, whereas the one built on sand falls. Futures End has a foundation that is 25 issues deep and this house appears to be standing. This issue features…
Catwoman #35 "Comfort to the Hurt of the King" Written by: Genevieve Valentine Art by: Gary Brown God this has been a long time coming! I can't express the joy I have that Nocenti is no longer overseeing this book. I'm so glad that we have a new team, and are moving in a new…
The cover of this comic says “Gratuitous Bat-Appearance” and, seriously, that’s all you really need to know about this issue titled "Milk Run". Consequently this will be the shortest review I have ever written for this site. Because if you know as much about Infinity Man and the Forever People as I do, you basically…
An all-new Bat-series spinning off the events of Batman Eternal! Do you hop on board this crazy train or stay safely in the station and watch it pull away? Only you can decide, but I’m here to give you some things to think about before you cast your yay or nay ballot. To qualify, I…
Before last month’s interruption of the Futures End tie-in, we left Harley on the beach with the meteoric arrival of Power Girl, having been knocked to Earth from another galaxy in issue No. 10. In “Power Outage”, we pick up that thread as Harley takes advantage of the unconscious super-hero by bringing her home and…
Print issue No. 2 collects the Digital Firsts 1 & 2, “Gathering Forces” and “Spirit of Vengeance”. Constantine has collected his world’s greatest detectives and the Resistance reconvenes at the home of Jason Blood as they try, with the added help of Klarion, to discern the nature of the malevolent psychic force that is bearing…
In my opinion, the Arkham issues are the red headed stepchild of Batman Eternal, and I wish I could kick his teeth in... I usually try and find something positive to discuss, even in issues that I don't appreciate as much, and I can usually put my personal feelings aside and review strictly from a…
Batman '66 #16 Written by Jeff Parker Illustrated by Brent Schoonover Colors by Kelly Fitzpatrick Letters by Wes Abbott After a less than stellar adventure last month, can the Dynamic Duo's escapades return to form? Or have their rogues succeeded in doing the unthinkable: making Batman boring? The answer is yes. ...or... no. Err.... .......…
