38 on Nightwing #57 reviewDespite the fact that we’re still having to endure this Ric Grayson nonsense, Nightwing #57 takes a number of steps in the right direction. To make things even better, we have Travis Moore covering art duties! I was hesitant to say this, but… things are looking up, people! It’s no secret that I’ve hated Nightwing…
It's time for DC's baldest baddies to get more intimate than they ever have before. It's not as gross as you're imagining right now, but it's at least twelve levels more invasive. Brainiac and Luthor face off as only they can, in Justice League #18. The story prevails Justice League is in an interesting spot right…
Joshua Williamson’s “Price” arc continues toward it’s book-jumping crossover conclusion with a chapter titled “The Price of Vengeance” in which payment for Gotham Girl starts coming due. I’m just going to leap right in here and say there’s an incredibly disconcerting contradiction in this story and it needs calling out. Flash and Batman are under…
There are a number of options in the market for DC kids' books, but after looking at lots of them (I have three young boys), I'm convinced that there's a clear leader in the field: Downtown Bookworks. I've been reviewing their DC Super Heroes line for years now, and they continue to impress with their…
Reviews and the discussions they inspire are a big part of why readers visit the Batman News comics section. So an article in which all of our reviewers engage in a discussion about that week’s titles? Why, you’d think it’s a no-brainer! And yet it took several years for the idea to cross our minds……
Batman and the Flash continue their team-up in this chapter of “The Price,” and I think the title is a little ironic because it might have you questioning if the story is worth… wait for it… the price. What? I write comic book reviews. Nobody said I was a comedian. Gotham Girl has gone crazy…
Jason follows the Underlife to the end of the road, and confronts a face—or three—from his past. OR DOES HE? Mystery begets mystery, crowbars fly, and you’ll feel the earth move under your feet in Red Hood: Outlaw #31. SPOILERS AHEAD Meh This is...boring. It isn’t very bad, and it isn’t very good, because it isn’t…
All right, fellow comic fans, I hope you’re ready for this, because Snyder and Jock have really done it this time! Those who’ve read my reviews on issue #1 and #2 know that I’ve been enjoying the show so far—issue #1 in particular because it offers such a great mix of psychological horror and body…
This week’s “Hell and Back” installment of the “Mythology” arc continues the trend of Peter J. Tomasi using rather cliché titles for what’s so far been a fairly stellar arc. But maybe this time the title is rather apropos as the story stumbles a bit now that Batman is closing in on his prey. We…

Back in #57 a murder mystery was introduced, with Harley as the main suspect. Batman tracked her down and ended up taking her to the Batcave to investigate whether or not Harley really is guilty of the crime. This issue picks up where #57 left off, with Harley and Bats standing in the cave, and…
The Martian Manhunter and the Superman Hunter meet on the plains of Mars! J'onn and Lex hold a secret meeting, but why? What could they possibly have to talk about? Find out in Justice League #17! Snyder's back (at least for now) It's no secret that I've been missing Scott Snyder on Justice League for the past…
We interrupt Tom King's “Nightmare” arc to bring you the first of a four part story from writer Joshua Williamson and artist Guillem March. So just put the King digression on hold for a fresh digression about the Justice League taking on the Amazo Justice League in a battle of brawn that not only has…
This review originally appeared on Comics Now. Repurposed with permission. Aquaman is a smash success, owing in large part to the enchanting world of people, places, and mythology that it brings to the screen. For over a year, we’ve heard stories of “Star Wars under the sea,” and the film manages to deliver an even more…
Vinimates are an acquired taste, but once you acquire some, you'll likely want to acquire more. Anyway, Aquaman Vinimates are out now, and they're a blast. I now have that Black Manta costume in statue, Pop!, action figure, and Vinimate form, and it looks good in all of them. Aquaman and Ocean Master ain't so bad,…

Batgirl #31 doesn’t get off to a good start. Last issue opened with an essential recap because important events had taken place between issue #29 and issue #30. This time, we’re given a recap of issue #30, which is entirely unnecessary if you’re keeping up with this series, as most readers are. What makes matters…
The Justice League is going to the Source—Wall, that is. Starman thinks the team can fix it, so the team gets to getting—and we all know nothing can go wrong when a total stranger leads you on a vague mission of universal salvation. Watch the uneventful success unfold, in Justice League Annual #1! Good thing…
Peter J. Tomasi just accomplished in less than a single issue of his “Mythology” arc all the same angst and drama, questions, fears, and craziness that has been pounded on for the last six months in the Batman title book. And he did it in a way that’s thrilling and heart-wrenching and absolutely crazy-making: by…
