13 on Kotobukiya Batman & Robin ARTFX+ two-pack reviewInspired by the cover for the ninth installment of Frank Miller and Jim Lee's unfinished All-Star Batman & Robin (henceforward ASBR), the fine folks at Kotobukiya have delivered one of their best Batman statues yet—and thrown in a pretty nifty Robin, to boot. Featuring energetic poses and excellent sculpting, this Dynamic Duo of 1/10 scale statues is…
Welcome back to Break from the Bat, your monthly dose of the wide world of comics outside of Gotham! A little over a year ago, I took a short look at Mark Waid's first volume of Archie. I shouldn't like Archie—who wants to revisit high school and all of those silly emotional crises that come…
Hey Warner Bros., if you need a script for Suicide Squad 2, look no further. Rob Williams has already done that for you. You’re welcome! It should be pretty clear by now that I’m a big fan of Suicide Squad, and an even bigger fan of Rob Williams. In fact, this is probably…
Olive is on the rampage in Gotham City tracking down people from her hit-list, and the kids of Gotham Academy are abandoning the school in droves. The fact that we are taking the story away from the school adds an entirely new layer to the narrative. That's not to say we haven't ventured from the…
Crap story? Check. Bad dialogue? Check. Convenient plots? Check. Whiskey to try and forget the past twenty minutes? Check. I really hate this book. Nothing would make me happier than to see a new creative team on Batgirl & the Birds of Prey. At this point, I don’t even care if you deliver…
This week in Justice League of America, the JLA has armor made of light! Why? I don’t know! As far as I can tell, it serves no purpose. It doesn’t appear to be actual armor, and it doesn’t seem to have any offensive benefits either, so I’m not quite sure what the point is.…
When you launch a crossover involving the Titans/ Teen Titans and Deathstroke, and you title it “The Lazarus Contract” (a clear pull from the incredible “The Judas Contract”), you’re automatically giving yourself some extremely large shoes to fill. Rather than just needing to be good, “The Lazarus Contract” has to face, and ultimately live…
Yikes! Josh perhaps said it with the most honesty in his round-up of the week’s comics: “I don’t think anyone cares anymore now that Injustice 2 has arrived.” The sad thing is Injustice: Ground Zero is generally a fun book with some interesting match-ups, mostly in-character exchanges, and consistently strong artwork. If we had nothing…
Let's go for one final ride, dudes and dudettes. Yes, despite the threat of Mad Hatter being wrapped up in the previous issue, Matthew Manning and Jon Sommariva have one more story to tell. I'm ok with that, and if you're here, I'll take it you are too. Batman/TMNT Adventures #6 picks up an indeterminate…
Ostensibly this issue of Supergirl (“Escape from the Phantom Zone” part 1) is the continuation of the story that began in the Supergirl and Batgirl annual that was released in late March? But don’t worry too much about that because not only could I not really remember much about March’s annual, there’s very little reference…
Shiva versus The BatFamily! It's come down to this. A final stand, with the victor deciding the fate of Gotham. Let's get to it... Instead of speaking vaguely about the content of this particular issue, I've decided to go full-on spoiler with it. So, if you haven't read this comic yet, you probably don't want…
Grounded in Qurac! Red Hood and the Outlaws have been shot out of the sky, but who fired the bolt? Bizarro plays hero for some displaced citizens while Jason confronts his demons, but can they get to Artemis before her past consumes her? You have questions—Red Hood and the Outlaws #10 has answers! Spoilers ahead…
Alfred Pennyworth. He's the trusted confidante, the father figure we all look up to, and the dear and loving friend that Batman needs. It almost comes as a shock when you remember that Alfred hasn't been part of the Batman story from the very beginning, debuting a full four years after Batman, but it's near…
Comics are awesome. If you disagree, you're wrong, and I will give you a moment to find the door. But maybe you don't exactly disagree, yet you've also never read any comics. Maybe—like me—you didn't grow up with them. Maybe you wanted to, but you couldn't afford them. That's probably a lot of you: "I'd…
Ahhh, prom. It's been... quite some time since I went to prom, but what I mostly remember about it was that it cost a lot of money and I unfortunately dressed in a vest that matched the catering staff. That was hilarious. Prom itself is seen as a necessary event in any teenager's life, though,…
I don’t think I’ve ever made a secret of the fact that I’m not a fan of the Tim Burton Batman movies, but even so, I always thought Michelle Pfeiffer was perfect for Catwoman, and I enjoyed her unhinged performance and her trash vinyl costume in Batman Returns. So getting my hands on NECA’s ¼…
Outside of buying an authentic prop from your favorite motion picture, nothing beats a Hot Toys figure when it comes to movie collectibles. It's like having a Madam Tussauds for your shelf! Batman News has talked about Hot Toys' miniaturization of Christian Bale and Michael Caine, Heath Ledger, Adam West, and more, and each one…
Here we are with part 3 of "The Button", a continuation of the story that began 11 months ago in DC Universe: Rebirth #1. We've already seen an epic battle between Batman and Eobard Thawne in the pages of Batman #21, and Batman and The Flash traveling across the boundaries of time and space to…
I’ve always been pretty stingy with the 10s around here and I confess I found myself looking for a flaw in this book just to keep those mated 1s and 0s precious. But you know what? This book just knocks all your teeth right outta your mouth, your feet right outta of your socks, your…
Tom Taylor is back and he’s looking good on his return to the Injustice universe! While he contributed a little between Buccellato and Sebala’s runs, he’s really been off the title since “Year 3”, back in 2015. Once again, I am staggered to remember that this curious little digital video game tie-in not only managed…
