6 on In memoriam: Alan Grant's best Batman storiesAlan Grant is a favorite among us all here at Batman News. With his passing, we wanted to talk a bit about our favorite Grant penned Batman stories. I think I speak for my fellow reviewers when I say, almost every Batman comic written by Grant are good. The vast majority are, in fact, great.…
On July 20, 2012, The Dark Knight Rises, the long-awaited conclusion of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, finally hit theaters. To say that it was highly anticipated was an understatement, to be sure, as it followed one of the most critically, commercially, and financially successful movies of all time. Rumors and fan speculation were rampant in…
It was about 1am in the morning when I got on a call with Ram V: 2022 Eisner Award nominee and upcoming writer of DC’s seminal publication, Detective Comics. Work was in a few hours, and I resolved to try to keep the interview as quiet as possible, lest I wake my housemates up through…
When discussing great Batman comics, we often focus on particular storylines or creative teams. But what about the times in Batman's history where no matter which title you picked up off the newsstands, you're almost guaranteed to get some quality Batman content? The times when different creative teams worked on different books to different ends,…

The Beginning One month ago, my good friend and colleague Jay Yaws released a beautiful article on the Little Caesars' Batman calzony. One of many promotional items for The Batman, Jay managed to get his hands on two of them-- and through the fearsome fireworks of savoury flavour he experienced, the man managed to write what…
DC Comics have announced that Batman, Inc. will return, which is cool. I'm all about Batman, Inc. However, rather than Batman or one of his long-established allies heading up the team, Ghost-Maker will be their leader. Ghost-Maker, who was introduced not two years ago, is the trusted head of Batman, Inc., as personally chosen by…
Little Caesars' Batman Calzony is part pizza and part calzone, but is it worth your time to taste vengeance? The Dark Knight is no stranger to fast food promotional tie-ins. Going all the way back to 1989, Tim Burton's Batman film was represented at Taco Bell through a series of super awesome plastic cups, along…
Last Friday I was lucky enough to get to sit down as the representative for Batman News at a roundtable interview with Joshua Williamson regarding his upcoming work on Batman, specifically regarding issue #118. As many of you who read my Robin reviews know, I’m a big fan of what he’s been doing there and…
The world was changed in 1992, when Batman: The Animated Series hit the air. That may sound like an exaggeration, but I assure you that it is not. Not content to be a cartoon for children-- which, ostensibly, it was-- Batman: The Animated Series helped completely change the conversation in Western animation about how the…
The latest all-ages graphic novel from DC Comics will soon be here, and Batman and Robin and Howard is s real gem. Without getting into spoilers, it's a fun and funny tale of a "grounded" Damian Wayne trying to be a real kid, making some true friends while he longs to return to being a…
Legends of the Dark Knight is a series most Batman fans know and love. It’s a chance for a variety of writers and teams to step in and tell a story about their Batman. In issue #4 Stephanie Phillips gets to do just that. She takes Batman deep into a mystery set in both Gotham’s…
WARNING: There’s no way around it – this review is going to contain heavy spoilers. It’s no secret that I’ve been incredibly excited for this book. As someone who grew up with Geoff Johns’ Justice League run – it’s honestly a big part of what motivated me to get into comics at all – Three…
Welcome back to my two-part interview with David Russo! (If you missed Part 1, you can check it out right here.) Today we’ll be getting into questions more catered to Batman fans: specifically, Russo’s feelings on both of the Bat-shows he worked on, what behind-the-scenes knowledge he gained, and what the production process is like…
When I watched Teen Titans Go! To The Movies near the back end of 2018, I laughed pretty hard at a joke about Alfred getting a film before Robin. What I didn’t expect was for that joke to be eerily accurate: because here we are, with a second season of Pennyworth on the way. The…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, everyone! We’ve got a unique story today in the form of Batman Chronicles: The Gauntlet, written by Bruce Canwell and pencilled by Lee Weeks, with colours from Matt Hollingsworth.

Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club. Today we are covering Batman: Gates of Gotham by Kyle Higgins, Scott Snyder, and Trevor McCarthy.

Josh: Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club. Yesterday we covered Dear Justice League, and today we’re covering Shadow of the Batgirl by Sarah Kuhn and Nicole Goux. This was actually a book that was requested for us to cover, and since we’d decided to do some YA books, it seemed like a…
