15 Years of Coverage (2010-2025)

It won't be until much later this year that we get the original TV series on Blu-ray, but until then we always have Batman '66 to give us our campy Batman fix! This month's issue collecting the DIGITAL FIRST title features two stories (one large, one short) that pit the Dynamic Duo against the little-known…
Batman is pinned down in an open grave. He can hear the sound of Harvey taunting Erin above and he knows by the cadence of Dent's voice that Two-Face is in control. "The Big Burn: Ablaze" picks up exactly where we left off in issue #26. It's grim and filled with tension that finally snaps in…
The latest issue of Justice League by Geoff Johns and a team of four artists is an oddly paced one that will be more rewarding for those who are well-versed in DC's less popular heroes. The comic begins with The Doom Patrol's Karma and Scott Fischer rummaging through the rubble of what used to be…
Yesterday, DC Comics released their full list of solicitations for the month of April, 2014. Although the cancellation of books like Teen Titans and Justice League of America were announced ahead of time, fans were surprised to read "FINAL ISSUE" in all capital letters when they skimmed through the solicitations for Nightwing, Superman Unchained, and now…
Last week, writer Kyle Higgins announced that he would be leaving the title he started with the debut of the New 52 and that a new creative team would be taking his place. However, it turns out that there's a lot more to the story than that! Earlier today, DC Comics released their official solicitations…
Scott Snyder & Greg Capullo's Batman arrives after a one-week delay, Forever Evil is pushed back to February but Justice League fills the void, and other great titles arrive on-time and ready to entertain with updated origin stories (Batman & Two-Face #27), 60's nostalgia (Batman '66 #7), and late 90's/early 00's nostalgia (Batman Beyond Universe #6).…
Here is Batman News' exclusive preview of Batman Beyond Universe #6, an extra-sized comic that collects the latest DIGITAL FIRST chapters of Batman Beyond 2.0 and Justice League Beyond 2.0: BATMAN BEYOND UNIVERSE #6 Written by CHRISTOS N. GAGE and KYLE HIGGINS Art by IBAN COELLO and THONY SILAS Cover by KHARY RANDOLPH On sale JANUARY…
Back in August, Batman News reported that Justice League of America would become "Justice League Canada" following the events of Forever Evil. Now it appears that the book will take place in outer space as well as Canada and be called "Justice League United." The team's all-new roster no longer includes the likes of Catwoman, Katana, Vibe,…
Early this morning, writer Kyle Higgins announced on Facebook that Nightwing will be getting an all-new creative team and issue #29 will be the end of his run on the series he began with the debut of the New 52. His full statement can be found below: So here’s something I’ve put off writing for a while.…
Writer Scott Lobdell announced this morning on Comicvine that the New 52 series will end with issue #30 and the Teen Titans Annual in April. There is no word on a possible relaunch of the title or if any characters will be getting their own solo title, but we do know that Tim Drake will…
Rather than try to top last year's fantastic, cameo-laden Halloween special, issue #10 foregoes trick-or-treating for an Autumn themed episode starring Poison Ivy and a murder mystery lead by Damian Wayne. As always, Li'l Gotham is a lighthearted, all-ages comic with self-contained tales that can be enjoyed by anyone. Ivy in the Fall Derek Fridolfs…
NOTE: This issue does indeed mark a jumping-on point for new readers, but I highly, highly recommend you play the video game or, more importantly, read the original 12 issues of Injustice: Gods Among Us first. The 1st year of Injustice: Gods Among Us was an entertaining and emotional prequel and the first volume of…
Although solicitations made Martian Manhunter and Stargirl's confrontation with the lunatics of Gotham City sound like the main attraction, issue #11 only spends about 8 exciting pages in Batman's hometown before moving on to a road trip that sees the pair traveling across the nation to reach Stargirl's family or Firestorm, whichever comes first. While…
Does it feel to anyone else like the Nightwing title has been getting knocked around by editorial interference from the start? It's a book that's shifted gears a lot. It looked like Nightwing was going to stand out as a book about a hero who gets to tour the US as a traveling hero who…
NOTE: I recommend that you read Detective Comics #27 before reading this comic or any review. I'm going to avoid any major spoilers from this issue, but in order to discuss it at all I'll need to mention what happened in Layman & Fabok's story that kicked-off "Gothtopia," particularly the villain who is seemingly responsible…
Gothtopia, Injustice: Year Two, Forever Evil, and a few more modest stories are all headed your way this Wednesday. And if you've gotten used to the routine of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's Batman coming out on the 2nd week of every month, I have some bad news for you: it won't be on sale…
To celebrate 75 years of Batman, Detective Comics #27 has been super-sized as a giant anniversary issue featuring a collection of short stories by a roster of all-star creators. Here's what I thought about it. Ads Batman: Black and White is $4.99 and doesn't feature any ads so I was expecting the same treatment for…
NOTE: For a better reading experience, check out Detective Comics #27 BEFORE reading this issue or this review! Luke Fox is back from Rome and Gotham is looking quite different. Everything is bright, cheerful, and safe. Does Luke question any of this? Not at first, he's one of the happy people. But there are a…
One of the great things about Batman: Black and White is that it gives writers and artists a chance to do something really daring and experimental. With each tale taking place outside of any continuity, creators can tap into any era of the mythology or completely turn the tropes of the average Batman comic on their…
Right from the first page, that's when I knew. When I saw Bane dressed in a cape and cowl screaming at a Talon to "Wake the hell up!" I knew Arkham War wasn't going to be what I hoped it could be. This whole mini-series has progressed from "Hey, this could be fun!" to "That…
