46 on Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo re-team for "Batman: Last Knight on Earth" under DC's new Black Label imprintDC Comics have been all about the publishing imprints lately. They've revived Vertigo, promised new Jinxworld stories from Brian Michael Bendis, and are even launching an entire line of books based on Neil Gaiman's Sandman universe. This morning, in an exclusive with The Hollywood Reporter, they've announced another brand new publishing imprint: Black Label. The…
DC Comics just announced that John Ridley, Oscar-winning screenwriter of 12 Years a Slave and writer of Vertigo's The American Way and its sequel Those Above and Those Below, will write a new prestige format series this winter. Titled The Other History of the DC Universe, the series will shine a spotlight on beloved characters…
This week, director Patty Jenkins spoke about her Wonder Woman sequel and in doing so revealed that it actually won't be a sequel at all. “We’re actually making a totally different film with a lot of the same, similar like things that we love, but it’s its own movie completely, so it’s not ‘2’ to us,”…
Sam Humphries is a delight. After talking with Batman News a few short weeks ago, the newly-minted Nightwing scribe had another chat with us about his debut on the title. We talked for quite awhile about anything and everything to do with his upcoming Nightwing arc "The Untouchable," including new Blüdhaven landmarks, Dick Grayson's new…
For the past year and a half, Tim Seeley has done Nightwing proud. While his run on the character is coming to an end in December's Nightwing #34, he's leaving the character in the capable hands of Sam Humphries. Fresh off a great run on Green Lanterns (which, funny enough, Seeley is now writing), Humphries…
A few weeks ago, a new Metal interlude was announced: Dark Knights Rising: The Wild Hunt. If you're drawing a blank, it was the one starring Detective Chimp. Sounds awesome. In some delightfully surprising news, Scott Snyder just announced via Twitter that he'll be writing it with none other than Grant Morrison. Metal has a…
With Justice League hitting theaters next month, the marketing and promotional materials are kicking into high gear. Toys, commercials, snack items, all sorts of goodness to get you pumped about the League's first outing on the big screen. Today, Warner Bros. and DC Comics have announced a brand new, six-issue comic series tying into the…
All-Star Batman may have just ended (as a monthly), yet we're already getting some ideas about Scott Snyder's next great Batman story: Batman: Last Knight. Granted, details are scarce right now, but Snyder had a few choice sound bites from NYCC. CBR has more information, but this was pretty interesting: “I want it to be my…
If you don't know Dynamic Music Partners by name, then you at least know their sound. The trio, consisting of Michael McCuistion, Lolita Ritmanis and Kristopher Carter, have composed the music and themes for countless animated projects over the years. From serving as the legendary Shirley Walker's protégés on Batman: The Animated Series to their Emmy-nominated…
If you're like me, you've seen an ad for something called Batman in Noir Alley at the back of comic books for a few months now. What is this, exactly? A noir Batman story? I'm all over that, but, again... what is it? Besides branding from Turner Classic Movies, there isn't much information in the…
Hard work pays off. In 1992, Bat-mania was at such a fever-pitch that people stole Batman Returns posters from public places and hung them in their homes before the movie's release. There's no doubt that Fox Kids! could've aired just about anything with the Batman name on it and cashed in on the craze. But, rather…
There is nothing I'd love more than for Ben Affleck to star in a Batman trilogy directed by Matt Reeves. But the fact is, Ben Affleck only has one more movie left on his contract after Justice League. Affleck is an incredibly busy guy with lots of talents and interests. He already has his next…
The last of the Dark Knights of the Dark Multiverse has been revealed as we finally have a look at the solo outing for the Devastator. Sure, Devastator has made appearances in promo materials before, but Newsarama has a first look at Jason Fabok's cover for the upcoming one-shot. Devastator here looks an awful lot…
The beginning is nigh. Doomsday Clock fast approaches, with super-star team Geoff Johns and Gary Frank re-teaming to tackle one of Rebirth's biggest mysteries: what is the exact role Doctor Manhattan played in the DCU's seemingly "stolen time"? To capitalize on some already high anticipation, Johns will be the focus of a panel at New…
Today, August 28, 2017, would have been Jack "King" Kirby's 100th birthday. Though the legendary creator died in 1994, his legacy lives on in just about any facet of comics you can think of. He and Stan Lee practically built the Marvel Universe by hand, creating the Fantastic Four and the X-Men and the Avengers…

Remember Batman and Elmer Fudd? How great that was? Of course you do. It's a concept that's so weird it's impossible to forget, and for my money it's the best Batman story of the year to boot. It's good stuff, is what I'm saying. This November, the genius team behind Batman/Elmer Fudd is back as Batman…
Gotham Academy is the little series that could. The story of Olive Silverlock, Mia "Maps" Mizoguchi, and the other members of the titular academy's "Detective Club" has been Gotham's shining light ever since it was first announced. Now, with tomorrow's release of Gotham Academy: Second Semester's final issue, the kids are saying goodbye. To give you an idea…
Kyle Higgins has had a pretty good couple of years. After some stellar runs on the New-52's Nightwing and Deathstroke, along with work on the digital-first Batman Beyond that was none-too-shabby either, he's had great success over at Boom! Studios with their Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers titles. Now Higgins has the chance to return to…
Andrew, Jay, Josh, and I all went to SDCC this year. And while there, we did what anyone going to Comic Con does. Take plenty of pictures. And that includes costumes! What follows is not a complete compilation of every single photo taken. If I included them all, we'd have more than 200 different photos…
What follows is a complete transcription of the interview I had with Steve Orlando on Thursday July 20th at the 2017 San Diego Comic Convention. BM: The lineup has you slated to talk about Supergirl, but I was hoping to talk with you about Batman / The Shadow. Is that ok with you? SO: Batman…
