11 on Batman: Long Shadows reviewBatman: Long Shadows is a five-issue collection from the pre-52 Batman book, featuring a touching Battle for the Cowl epilogue and the four-issue Long Shadows arc, in which Dick Grayson learns that some of Bruce's long-time foes are harder to fool than others. What's included Only Batman drives the Batmobile The volume opens with A Battle Within, a short…
Spinning out of last month’s short story, “Night at the Museum,” Tieri continues the narrative he set in motion pertaining to the False Face Society, and the infamous faceless mask. I was pretty excited to see him build on this, because I really enjoyed the short story (although, I still wish the entire, oversized issue…
Cat's TidBits: Our New Earth is not going so smoothly with a major war going to break loose and with the Amazonians trying to take control, things are not going to be so easy for our heroes. BECAUSE HE'S THE GODDAMN BATMAN, THAT'S WHY. I wanted to start off with this frame, because I am…
Cat's TidBits: Joker's Daughter finally reveals her true intentions and attempts to fool Jason, but the real story here is Arsenal's past coming to light and the repercussions that have resulted from that. If you've been reading Titans Hunt, you're going to notice that Arsenal has been having strange dreams, but in reality have been memories that…
Superman has strength, speed, and flight. Green Lantern has his power ring. The Flash is the fastest man alive. Batman, as the old joke goes, has the greatest superpower of all: money. As with any joke there is at least a bit of truth to that statement, and as with any joke the truth goes…
This could have been the issue of Black Canary I've been waiting for—but it's not. While I hate to spoil the end of a thousand-word review, I feel it my duty to spare you the suspense: don't buy this book, even if you've enjoyed it up to this point. And you didn't miss a note of…
Prepare to have your heart warmed, broken, and thrown in the blender once again. As Pete Tomasi's two-month takeover of the Superman books continues, Batman gets involved, a mysterious new super-being flexes his muscles, and the World's Finest must fight through a mysterious new threat. When you happen to be looking for the world's greatest detective...…
“The Battle of Britain” storyline begins, pulling together the first three installments from Digital Firsts 31, 32, and 33, and at long last we see the Bombshells converging on a single location to fight as a cohesive team. The question is: how cohesive is it? And secondarily (but no less important): can this immense group…
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that Damian Wayne is a little turdburger. -Jane Austen Not gonna lie, I hated the idea of Damian Wayne at first. What it boiled down to, I think, was the idea of Batman being a dad just not sitting right with me for some reason. Needless to say,…
As the Yearbook story arc unfolds, each consecutive issue gets better than the last. While I wasn't a fan of the first two parts, the last one definitely had us back on track, and with this issue delivering us firmly back into Gotham Academy territory, I'm content once again. A well written tale about one…
If you were expecting Harley Quinn & the Suicide Squad’s April Fool’s Special to be your standard, oversized Harley romp… you’re mistaken. While this is very much a Harley Quinn story, chock full of the usual craziness we’ve come to expect from her, this issue also, and more importantly, serves as a Suicide Squad #0…
Cat's TidBits: Harley Quinn is back and she brought a gang with her! Now that Harley has a gang by her side, she's trying to put them to the test to see if they even withstand having the title, but now she's been kidnapped. Can they prove to have Harley's attitude and save their leader? …
I take Batman comics seriously by default. And if it's hard for me to tell for certain that a particular story isn't meant to be interpreted in some other way, I struggle to enjoy it. I'm hesitant to call art and dialogue poorly-formed or ridiculous, because I don't know that it wasn't intended. But neither…
“Robin is forced to join the young super team and soon has to help lead them in a fight against the mighty Justice League after they are possessed by the demon Trigon.” – DC Comics I always want to laugh when I read the synopsis that DC releases for these films… I feel like they…
Kind of a big deal I know what you're thinking: why on Earth is Archie being featured on a Batman site? I can understand the question. The last thing I expected to read or enjoy this past month was the first volume of Mark Waid and Fiona Staples' new Archie series. I got into comics for…
Cat's TidBits: Riots are still happening in Neo-Gotham, but that's not the main story here. Dr. Cuvier is still attempting to take over (what's left of this world) with the Splicers by his side and the help of the Justice League still under control Brother Eye's technology. Can Batman take them down? PHEW! Many things…
Ring the bell, because the battle has begun! It’s the Suicide Squad, the “Faux Squad” (my name for them… not their official name), and the Fist of Cain… Going into this issue, I kept wanting to say, “It’s going to be a bloodfest,” but I honestly wasn’t sure. Considering the circumstances, this issue needed to…
Bucky Barnes visits the Batcave and...oh wait, sorry, character models are a bit mushy here. That’s Damian Wayne in all his long-haired black-and-red glory. Digital Firsts No.13 “Taking Sides” & No. 14 “Casting Shadows” tells the story we were promised two weeks ago as Injustice takes an almost all-Bat-all-the-time issue to delve into this nearly…
Gordon travels to the Middle East to take on an Egyptian cult?! At least that is my present understanding of the story. Basically, Gordon and his previous military unit got inadvertently involved in some freaky stuff back in the day, and all the individuals that got entangled in that original encounter are now being systematically…
After some delays, and some shuffling of release order, we finally get the Justice League: Darkseid War special. As much as I want to be upset by the delays, I find myself incapable of getting too angry because each issue ends up being so damn satisfying. This issue, is no exception. Based on the cover…
