8 on All-Star Batman #3 reviewBatman and Two-Face edge ever closer to their destination in All-Star Batman #3, while a deeper history between the two is revealed. After the zig-zagging narrative and outright zaniness of the first two issues, it's nice to have a little breather. That's just what this issue is: it's slow. It's pretty straightforward. It's even a…
Christopher Priest has accomplished something great with Deathstroke: he's balanced the ideas of a road trip, a family drama, and the exploration of a supervillain's inner psyche to create a genuinely gripping comic series. Even more surprising? He's made me care about Slade Wilson. Deathstroke has always been one of those villains that I've appreciated…
After Artemis gives him a savage beating with everyone's favorite blunt instrument—the truth—Jason Todd comes face to face with a truly terrifying prospect: a clone of the world's most powerful being in the hands of Black Mask. Why Bizarro? Before Jason or Artemis can do a thing, Black Mask shows up and gasses them. But…
What's the worst that could happen if Red Hood and Arsenal took their heroing skills and used them to pay the bills? What's the worst that could happen if DC published a book that attempts to answer that question? What's the worst that could happen if I wrote a review that answers the first two…
Every few months, I stumble upon a book that I didn't see coming, and then find myself blown away at both its elusiveness and its splendor. So it is with Green Valley, Max Landis's brand new tale of brotherhood, commitment, and courage in the face of staggering loss, which I only heard about for the…
The chief of police has a problem with some weirdo hellraisers with a Renaissance Faire kink running around on horses and dressed as medieval knights, harassing the public as vandals, thieves, and murderers. The worst part of the problem is that the ringleader of these knights of the wrong table is (naturally) the spoiled son…
This week’s issue of Injustice may feel a little disorienting at first, but don’t forget that the ruling premise from the start for this series has always been that inter-dimensional travel plays a part in heroes coming to the aid of a reality in which Superman has lost his ever-lovin’ marbles after the death of…
It's definitely a bad sign when I'm headed into a Wednesday, a day that should make any comic fan as jubilant as a pig in its own filth, but instead I'm morose because I know I'm going to have to review another chapter of Monster Men.... Batman #8 and Nightwing #6 both came out today,…
Join the Titans as they embark on their most ambitious, dangerous mission yet: a two-part adventure! When Hollywood executives come calling, claiming to want to create a television show based on the team, imaginations begin to run wild. Will it be a nature documentary, complete with random shark attacks? Or maybe an action-packed Saturday morning…
The Justice League is gripped with fear! With something terrifying closing in, our heroes band together to stand against the threat. But what looks like victory may not be so simple... It starts out okay... After repelling some oily, black, tubes of terror, the League members go their separate ways. Jessica and Barry plan to…
NOTE: As before, go ahead and read Batman #8 before proceeding. The events of that issue lead directly into this one. The long night of the monster men approaches the dawn in Nightwing #6, the penultimate chapter in the Batfamily crossover. Up to this point, the story has left me cold. There's great talent involved,…
Greetings, citizens of Gotham. Do you love the classic 1966 television series Batman starring Adam West and Burt Ward as the Dynamic Duo? Have you absorbed any and all media relating to it, leaving you wanting more? Do you long to know even the most mundane and obscure bits of trivia related to your preferred…
One of several comics to spin off from the final installment in the Arkham series, Batman: Arkham Knight: Genesis turns its eye on the game's big villain. Who is the Arkham Knight, and what made him? Spoilers for the game follow. What's included? Inside the Genesis trade, you'll find all six issues of this miniseries. We covered…
We are three issues into Titans, and every issue has left me feeling frustrated. Yet again, I find myself struggling to find the best way to express my opinion with this title because it isn't terrible, but it is far from great. Whenever a book falls on either side of the quality spectrum, it is…
Oh my squad, now this is a suicide mission! It’s the Suicide Squad vs Zod… or as I’m referring to it, Suicide Squad #3: the issue where people fall in love with Katana. After last month’s cliffhanger, I was eager to get my hands on this book! Did it deliver? In some ways, yes. In…
Barbara Gordon does something in this month’s issue of Batgirl that I’m pretty sure we never saw her do during her Burnside run (and possibly even before Burnside, when she was still under the helm of Gail Simone): she got fed up with someone’s shenanigans (Kai’s, of course), and utterly left him in the lurch.…
Welcome to the conclusion of the Gang of Harleys six-issue saga. This is the fun part where we get to look at the finale issue and all of its crazy Harley-esque weirdness, but also at the series as a whole to see whether the story holds up over the half-year that we’ve spent with it.…
From days of long ago...from deep within the bowels of Gotham City...comes a legend. The legend of Batman, Defender of Gotham! A mighty hero. Loved by good, feared by evil. As Batman's legend grew, peace settled across Gotham. The Bat-Family was formed in order to maintain that peace. But one day a horrible new menace…
Let's get this out of the way: there is no dancing here, and therefore, no Batusi. Perhaps next week, but as it stands, that cover makes a promise and doesn't deliver. Yet. There are deathtraps galore, though, as Batman '66 Meets Steed and Mrs. Peel approaches the home stretch. With all the players on the…
Batman Beyond has essentially felt like it’s been in perpetual change ever since DC announced that Terry McGinnis would become part of continuity in Futures End. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing though, considering the book has gotten better and better over time. Futures End initially featured Terry traveling back in time to stop Brother…
