7 on Poll: The Best Batman Cover of 1943 (Final Round)Keep in mind that you’re not voting for what cover is the most important to Batman history! This isn’t a poll to see which comic was the biggest milestone. So even though I add some fun facts with a few of these issues, don’t let it affect your decision on which cover you believe looks…
Harley Quinn, Terry McGinnis, Adam West, and an all new Two-Face origin for the New 52 era, that's what's in store for readers this Wednesday! Here are the review comics coming out this week, December 18th, graded on a scale of my own anticipation: Hell no! – I’d rather not – Ambivalent…
Coming to comic shops this Wednesday and bookstores everywhere on 12/24 is the third volume of the New 52 Birds of Prey featuring Batgirl, Black Canary, Starling, Katana, and an all-new character and former Court of Owls Talon, Strix. This 160 page trade paperback includes the last of Duane Swierczynski's run (issues #13-17) and it also…
Legends of the Dark Knight is back and it's bigger than ever, but bigger doesn't necessarily mean better so we still need to review it, right? The "Super Spectacular" continues where the last issue of the comic anthology series left off back in October. Only the page count and price tag have changed. It's still…
Batman: The Dark Knight will come to an end in March 2014 with issue #29. Author Gregg Hurwitz just made the announcement on his website: Batman is forever, but sadly not all of his titles are. Batman: The Dark Knight will be ending with Issue 29. When I first signed on to do a single arc with…
If you were browsing through your local comic shop today --a day with 9+ Batman-related comics hitting the shelves-- and saw this comic and said to yourself, "Drawings of a sixteen year old girl taking a bright, golden poo?! Yes, please!" YOU ARE ABOUT TO BE VERY DISAPPOINTED. This is easily one of DC's most…
Two things to note: All in all, there's really not a whole lot of substance to this issue. It can be fun watching the villains fight, but that's pretty much all it is. A few cameo-stuffed pages of recognizable villains punching here, a couple panels of conspiring villains reciting the plot back to us again…
It's part 4 of 6 for the Batman: Black and White mini-series and this time the talent includes such names as Dustin Nguyen, Kenneth Rocafort, and Michael Allred, and many more. What short stories are in store for you with the latest from this Eisner Award-winning anthology series and does it maintain those Eisner Award-winning standards that…
Say what you will about the hard-to-swallow motivations of some of the characters and the sporadic release schedule of this arc, but the covers for Batgirl: Wanted have been breath-taking and issue #26 is no exception. Best of all, I think fans of Gail Simone's Barbara Gordon will be equally pleased with what's behind that…
It's odd to see the Gotham blackout and Riddler take such a backseat, but the idea of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo reimagining Batman's first supervillain, Doctor Death, has managed to be a rather enjoyable (and disturbing) distraction. At the end of last month's issue, Lucius Fox jabbed a syringe into Bruce's neck and as…
When compared with issue #19, the first chapter of the first arc in Nightwing's Chicago adventure's, issue #26 is a bit of a snooze. I mean, that first arc we had Nightwing being chased by police while he himself hunted the man who killed his parents, we caught a glimpse of a serial killer who…
A Dustin Nguyen illustrated cover that pays homage to the classic Jack Burnley cover from the 1940's AND a beloved Batman: The Animated Series episode? Come on. While it's worth picking up this $2.99 comic for that cover alone, you're also in store for what I think is the best issue of Batman: Li'l Gotham yet!…
Talon isn't the only book that James Tynion IV is leaving in 2014. Will Pfeifer will be taking over for Tynion on the New 52 series Red Hood and the Outlaws starting with issue #29 this March. However, Tynion will not be leaving Gotham altogether, he's instead devoting his attention to the new weekly series Batman…
"Futures End" will be an all-new weekly series debuting in May, 2014. The comic promises to jump 5 years into the future of the DC Universe and feature Batman Beyond for the first time as an official part of the DC Universe's continuity. How exactly can Batman Beyond happen only five years into the future?…
It's safe to say that the Justice League title isn't really about the Justice League anymore, but that in no way means that it's something you should skip. The main event is indeed Forever Evil and Justice League has been turned into supplemental material for that saga, but it is very good supplemental material that…
This February's issue of Batman will no longer be the conclusion of Zero Year: Dark City, but a one-shot illustrated by Dustin Nguyen and written by Scott Snyder & James Tynion IV. This issue does not take place in the past of Zero Year or the present of Forever Evil, but will actually jump ahead…
There were only 3 comics on my review schedule last week and it was lovely. Lovely! But this week we have 9 Batman-related comics coming out. Delayed comics, sidekick comics, team comics, revived digital first comics, kid-friendly comics, mini-series comics, and, of course, the main Batman title. It's all there. And no, I am not…
Here is Batman News' exclusive preview of Batman: Li'l Gotham #9, which will be available in comic shops everywhere this Wednesday! It's a great comic for kids of all ages and this issue in particular looks like a must-read for fans of Batman: The Animated Series and those folks who have experienced the hassles that…
Here is Batman News' exclusive preview of the Digital First Batman Beyond 2.0 #9, which will be available for download this Saturday for only 99 cents! This is the first part of an all-new arc in one of my favorite ongoing titles and, as you can see by the images below, it features one of the…
"Crown of Fear" is a done-in-one comic that's devoted to wrapping up a storyline that's been featured in the background of Detective Comics since April. It's a Man-Bat feature that's loaded with enough exposition and editor's notes that a new reader could conceivably jump on, but I wouldn't recommend it. It would simply be too…
