Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, where this week we will, once again, be covering two young reader titles. First up, Dear Justice League by Michael Northrop and Gustavo Duarte. This story is definitely targeted to the younger audience of the young reader line, and really dives into some cute scenarios and…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club, where this week we will be covering Batman & the Monster Men by Matt Wagner. This story is a fleshed out version of Batman #1, and was requested by one of our readers after we covered Batman: Prey. As you might expect, this book features Hugo…
To say that Jim Lee is a busy man is like saying March was "an inconvenient month" for everyone: technically true, but also a vast understatement. Currently the sole Publisher and Chief Creative Officer of DC Comics (not to mention one of the most renowned artists in the comic book industry), there is quite likely a lot…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club! This week we will be discussing Batman: The Cult by Jim Starlin and Bernie Wrightson, with colors by Bill Wray. This is probably the most obscure story we’ve covered so far, and it’s also probably the darkest. Where Batman: Prey and Batman: Ego both had a…
Welcome back to the Batman News Quarantine Book Club! This week, we're gonna be discussing Batman: Ego - written and illustrated by the late, great, Darwyn Cooke. The Deluxe Hardcover that you will find this in does have other stories in it, but today we will only be focusing on the one comic. We have…
Alright! Welcome to our first ever Quarantine Book Club! This week we will be discussing Batman: Prey by Doug Moench and Paul Gulacy. A little history on this story, it was originally released back in 1990 in Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight, and is meant to serve as a follow-up to Batman: Year One…
Welcome to The Harley Report, a brand new, ongoing feature where we talk Harley Quinn with writer Sam "The Hammer" Humphries. Sam approached us here at Batman News about having an ongoing conversation about his work on the Harley Quinn title, and we jumped at the chance to discuss comics with him. And other stuff,…
It's another week of comics. Some great, some... less so, but all worth talking about. The final adventure of the Caped Crusader and those Heroes in a Half-shell reached its conclusion, Harley Quinn reunited with her mother (in a way) in a genuinely moving issue of her self-titled series, Batman finally (finally) returned to Gotham…
Now that's Titans! After we limped through a flashback centered on the utterly charmless Aqualad last week, we're running full speed in Titans episode 5. Powers are developing, secrets are coming out, and the past is back with a vengeance. I have to admit, I was a little worried. That episode was a hard stop…
It's another week of Batman comics and, well... there were some bombshells this week. Black Mask gets a sort of new origin, Dick Grayson still refuses to admit that he isn't this "Ric" guy, Lobo's still hanging around in Teen Titans, and Alfred... let's just say we're thinking and hoping that there's something else going…
In case you missed it: in the latest Upcoming Comics, Josh introduced our new team mates—Matina, Nancy, Nick and Michael! Though you’ll have to wait a few days for their first reviews to come out, you can already enjoy their commentary in this week’s This Week in Comics! Below we’re discussing giant zombies, powerful cliffhangers,…
You know, for a relatively light shipping week (it is a fifth Wednesday, after all), there was still a lot of Batman to talk about. Out of seven books DC shipped this past week, five were Batman or Batman-related. Crazy. Brian was on vacation this week too, so it’s just three of us in the…
The Wall Street Journal recently spoke to many hardcore DC fans that have been lobbying for Warner Bros. to release the Snyder Cut of Justice League. Next week, fans may finally have some answers about Snyder's original cut when the WSJ article is published. But until then, I wanted to suggest what I feel is…
Last year before Justice League came out, DC presidents Geoff Johns and Diane Nelson told Vulture that the DCEU would be focusing on standalone stories going forward. The movies wouldn't be building towards a bigger story in the way that Batman v Superman did. But the DCEU got a new boss in Walter Hamada earlier…
Well, DC, you’ve done it again. While having my coffee this morning, I saw tweets from The New York Times and DC Comics revealing spoilers for Batman #50… 4 days before the issue drops! I’m shocked. I don’t know why I’m shocked though. This isn’t the first time that DC has gone out of their…
With last year’s announcement that longtime Marvel creator Brian Michael Bendis has signed an exclusive contract with DC Comics, it was just a matter of time until he took a crack at the Dark Knight. He’s already dipped his toe in the water by giving the Caped Crusader a cameo in The Man of Steel,…
Have I mentioned that Sam Humphries is a delight? Because it absolutely bears repeating. The writer has been making his mark across DC Comics over the past few years, from launching the excellent Green Lanterns title to helming a great run on Nightwing, and even teaming up Bugs Bunny with the Legion of Super-Heroes. We’ve…
After the events of Dark Nights: Metal, everything in the DC Universe is just going to get crazier. The Source Wall is broken, new heroes are appearing, and Atlantis itself is destined to rise from the sea. Spinning right out of the finale of Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's mega-hit, the upcoming No Justice miniseries from…
Ralph Woolsey, cinematographer for the 1966 Batman television series, has died. The Emmy-winning cinematographer's career began all the way back in the 1940s and lasted until 1980, and during that time he shot several acclaimed films and television shows. As a part of the crew on the legendary Adam West and Burt Ward Batman series,…
Fresh from the first ever livestream of DC Comics' Publishers Panel at WonderCon in Anaheim, it's been revealed that two brand new Justice League titles will drop this summer. Spinning out of the upcoming No Justice miniseries, the titles will include a relaunch of Justice League Dark and the new title Justice League Odyssey. And…
