1 on 100 Things Batman Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die reviewWho made the Batmobile? Why did Robin have chain mail over-underpants? Where is the secret entrance to the Batcave? These are just a tiny few of the myriad questions answered in Joseph McCabe’s 100 Things Batman Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die, out October 15 from Triumph Books. A thorough study On the…
I wasn’t expecting much from this issue, and as a stand-alone issue, I think it’s ok… But there are so many epic moments that happen here that I’m literally like, “Go Metal! Go Metal! Hey, Snyder! It’s yo’ birthday! Shake your bootay!” We’ve reached the fourth and final chapter of “Gotham Resistance,” and I honestly…
Did Selina say, "Yes". Did Selina say, "No". That's probably the biggest question on everyone's mind right now. But before we get to that, we need to evaluate the rest of the issue. In my last review, I brought up the fact that it felt as if the story was being spread out. As if…
With the theatrical release of Justice League coming up fast, I thought it would be a good time to look at some of Funko’s new Pop!s for the film. They graciously provided some for review, and even threw in some Dorbz for us to check out, as well. I’m still on the fence about some…
The one thing I kept trying to figure out going into this story, was how Paul Dini and Marc Andreyko were going to naturally marry these characters and worlds. Let’s face it, the Batman universe and the Archie universe shouldn’t be kindred spirits. Even the crazy, fun, absurdity that we’ve come to expect with Harley…
What if the Joker wasn’t crazy anymore? What if the brutality of Batman became too much for his beloved city to accept? Sean Murphy’s Batman: White Knight #1 is at last here: a gorgeously-illustrated, well-written start to a series that may well become a defining moment in the history of the Dark Knight. Spoilers ahead…
Conner and his parents (Green Arrow and Black Canary) are reunited! Wildcat may actually survive his encounter with EvilBats! Harley Quinn changes sides (again)! And Damian gets a haircut! The most exciting thing about this issue for Batfans, however, is that Batman actually takes center stage. And it’s easy to see why writer Tom Taylor…
Welcome to “Debates and Delusions” wherein Harley Quinn takes on the other mayoral candidates after huffing fear toxin compliments of Scarecrow himself. If that sounds like the kind of deranged thing you’d love to read about, step right up for this carnival of confusion. Harley’s got a long way to go with her candidacy, but…
Who is the mysterious Sovereign? What is her connection to the League? Why is Arthur her man-wench? Is Wonder Woman really the cause of everything that will be bad in the world? Justice League #30 answers some of those questions, and I’m here to tell you how it does. WITH SPOILERS! Love it or hate…
What if the indomitable will of Bruce Wayne, rather than promising to avenge his murdered parents, instead received the most powerful weapon in the universe and possessed the ability to avenge them on the spot? Would premature access to such extraordinary means corrupt the grieving young Bruce, or would it make him the ultimate force…
Well, we're reaching the end of the road. In just a few short months, Tim Seeley will no longer be writing Dick Grayson. Beginning with December's 35th issue, current Green Lanterns writer Sam Humphries will take over the title, while Seeley will be the new writer on Green Lanterns. A nice old switcheroo. It feels…
Yarr, ye scavernous bilgerats. Buckle yer swash and hoist the mainsail, prepare to weigh anchor and set course for adventure as All-Star Batman draws to a close. If you have any doubts about Snyder's sincerity with the pirate motif, just know that the very first page sees an airplane take off from a landmass with…
Love it or hate it, no one can deny Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice one of its greatest achievements: a cinematic Batman aesthetic that is unashamed of its comic book roots. Prior adaptations almost unanimously favored all-black suits made of armored or rubberized materials, resulting in costumes that may have cut a nice silhouette, but…
Perhaps a day is coming when the world—and I along with it—will grow tired of the Funko Pop! craze. But that day is not today, because today, I have a box full of vinyl from Batman: the Animated Series, and the notion that such things could ever outlive their usefulness seems ridiculous at the moment.…
Batgirl (Beyond) makes her (second) debut in this chapter of Batman Beyond! I wonder what she’s been up to in this post-Brother Eye Neo Gotham? This month, DC is giving Dan Jurgens and Bernard Chang a little break, and delivering a filler issue of Batman Beyond in their absence. Right away, you should know not…
Hungry for both food and justice? Looking for something to do on a rainy day? Curious if there's a way to cross-indoctrinate your child with super hero and non-super hero concepts at the same time? Once again, it's the good folks at Downtown Bookworks to the rescue! Few things generate more excitement in my youngest son…
Let's get this out of the way up front: "the Murder Machine" is a pretty silly name. And it's not like the other Dark Knights are being subtle either: Devastator? Red Death? The Drowned? You know what these guys are about. Murder Machine is probably the most on-the-nose of the lot, but you know what?…
In this issue of Justice League of America, we find out what Ray Palmer has been up to these past few months… And that’s about it. I’ve been a champion for “Crisis in the Multiverse” because it’s easily been the best arc in Justice League of America since its debut. Quite frankly, this is the…
“Summer of Lies” continues as Batgirl and Nightwing deepen their investigation into ex-colleague Ainsley’s potential vendetta (using nano-technology and possibly the Wonderland Gang to further aims we still have yet to fully identify). This story is using all of Barbara Gordon’s skill sets: doing the detective work to piece together how current events are likely…
After ten long months, we finally bring this team-up to a close. It began with so much great energy coming out of the gate: a first-rate writer, an excellent artist, and a premise full of promise. But instead of going out with the bang it probably could have and should have had, it sort of…
