0 on Batman: The Adventures Continue Season 3 #7 reviewWell the series took an unexpected month long hiatus, but now it's finally back to pick up on the last issue's cliffhanger. The al Ghuls are planning to retire and give the world a miracle crop that will end world hunger, while at the same time the Court of Owls are back in Gotham. The…
Last month Knight Terrors: Detective Comics opened up its story with the focus on Jim Gordon and his own internal conflict regarding how he’s protected Gotham all these years. This issue continues to press into those questions, and explore the idea of Gotham’s future in the face of protectors who have been there for years.…
One week after the release of the horrible The Penguin #0, issue one is on the shelves. Now that the series proper is underway, Tom King and Rafael De Latorre have taken the reins and the plot jumps off from the previously established status quo, in a new direction. Let’s see if the new team…
Once again we have a cover with Joker on it, yet no Joker to be found in any of the stories. Someone in the comments mentioned that it might be an instance of King's big Joker story getting pushed back without the covers being adjusted. There might be some truth to that, but King's story…
Knight Terrors is the nightmare that keeps giving. Every time I think we've finally reached the end, we uncover yet another layer of the dream. In particular, although the Titans escape the haunted tower, they quickly discover that leaving the dream won't be so easy. All That I Am The primary mystery leading this tie-in…
At long last! The final chapter of Dark Knights Of Steel comes to a striking end. For twelve harrowing issues, the three kingdoms of the realm have gone to war because of a long standing lie. With Protex's evil influence out in the open, the kingdoms have finally turned their war in the right direction.…
This will be my last review for the Harley Quinn ongoing for a while. I’ve been needing to take a little step back from comic reviewing to work on other projects. Therefore, I will be dropping Joker (yay). I will also be reviewing this Harley Quinn book every 6 months in trade paperback. Meanwhile, I…
Why exactly was this four issues long? I understand that it's the flagship series of the whole Knight Terrors event, but the whole thing is only two months. Did we really need to squeeze a prologue, an epilogue, and a biweekly series where Deadman and friends just sort of wander around until they run into…
Hello everyone and welcome back to Upcoming Comics! This week most of the remaining Knight Terrors books wrap up, with the proper finale coming week. As we get close to wrapping up the event I can’t say the full content ever really changed my original opinion on the event. A few books really shined, but…
It was only a matter of time, and now it's been confirmed: Batman '89 and Superman '78 are back... again, with two brand new miniseries coming this November. The wildly popular continuations of the wildly popular films proved to be huge hits when they came out a few years back, and while some hints were…
The Penguin #0 is a collection of the three-part Catwoman backup that originally ran from Batman 125 through 127. It's a story that is now being touted as the setup for Penguin’s ongoing title despite focusing more on its original title character, Catwoman, who is sent to find Penguin’s children and notify them of Penguin’s…
I’m sad to start off this review with the revelation that this issue suffers many of the same problems as its predecessor. The main problem that I complained about at the beginning of my last review was that the parallel stories weren’t flowing together. There's the main story and then the side projects of the…
Knight Terrors: Catwoman #2 perhaps bites off more than it can chew, but Tini Howard’s script does a good job of balancing its examination of Selina’s relationships with both Maggie and Bruce. Leila Leiz’s art is once again a major selling point, but for readers who don’t mind a two-part elseworlds story there is more…
Knight Terrors: Nightwing #2 is an improvement over last month’s issue, but cannot fully break free of its overwhelming feeling of irrelevance. No new ideas are presented as Becky Cloonan’s and Michael W. Conrad’s script instead favors embracing a wackier atmosphere instead of doubling down on the more grim psychoanalysis of the previous script. With…
As usual after every big arc, World’s Finest presents a smaller, interlude-type story before the start of the next big arc. So far, these interludes have been fun, little one-shots. This time, however, it’s a two-part story about how Batman and Superman first met. That story has been told several times in the past, but…
Every now and then, DC Comics will shut down for a line wide event. In the last few years, the DC Universe froze in Endless Winter, been on storm watch in Lazarus Planet, and remains fast asleep during Knight Terrors. Typically, readers may expect the tie-ins to cover key characters amid other generally useless spin-offs.…
During my time reviewing at Batman News, I’ve given most comics scores of about 6 or lower. That’s because, quite simply, I don’t think most comics released today even manage to be of average quality. I’m especially harsh on Harley comics. The problems DC has with writing her character run very deep and seem to…
Hello everyone and welcome back to Upcoming Comics! This week has quite a few comics coming out, with at least three Batman Knight Terrors related issues wrapping up their tales. Though, I’m sure they’ll be vying for your attention against Buldur’s Gate 3 since it released this past week. I, for one, am not so…
I can’t tell you how excited I am that Batman: Wayne Family Adventures even exists, let alone got published not only as a Webtoon, but got a physical release as well. This comic has been my number one favorite thing DC comics has published since it’s initial release back in September of 2021. I’m delighted…
Batman and Scoob are back and so is Erich Owen who continues to be my favorite artist working on this series. The question is, can the writing live up to his art? Let’s see. This month, Sholly Fisch is back on scripting duties and the theme is AI and cyberspace. It was bound to happen…
