13 on Batman #130 reviewLast month the JLA Watchtower was destroyed and Batman ended up floating around in space. I did not like last month’s issue, because the whole situation was too convoluted and over-the-top. This issue picks up where we left off last time, and I’m praying that the creative team can put out something good, because this…
In the last two issues of Joker, we were introduced to two people claiming to be the real Clown Prince of Crime. One of them professed to have changed his ways, wanting to do good now, while the other was one of the more vicious depictions of the Joker that we’ve seen as of late.…
I found the last issue of Poison Ivy to be a major letdown. The series went from an overall good exploration of Ivy's character to, once again, trying to straddle the line between making her a hero while maintaining her iconically evil traits. That change for Ivy came too quickly for me to buy into…
"Detective Comics" - That's the name of the company. Well technically I guess the company is named "Detective Comics Comics." Regardless, my point is that the namesake of the entire publishing line is supposed to be stories centered around detective work. Despite this, it's very rare that we get to see actual detective work play…
Shopping for a Bat-fan who needs something a little glamorous? We have something to show you! The limited-edition The Batman Bow Lipstick Case Set is both pocket-sized and undeniably elegant while still checking the box of being connected to the Caped Crusader. The set includes a shapely lipstick case as well as a diamond powder…
We've shown you some downright awesome books, toys, and video games over the past three days, but just in case you thought those tried and true staples of nerdy holiday gift guides were all we had left to suggest, think again! We want to help you think outside the box with your holiday shopping as…
Now this is what I want to see in a Detective Comics Annual. Gotham history? Check. Villain plots and backstory? Double check. Lost in time Batman references? So so many checks. I love it when creative teams get a chance to dive into Gotham’s history. Some of my favorite single issues, stories, and runs have…
It’s time for Batgirls to have its first annual! With more space to tell its story, and an extra issue this month, Batgirls dives deep into the lives of two of its titular Batgirls, Stephanie and Cassandra, and looks at the parents who shaped them in a very Freaky Friday kind of way. So, let’s…
Nightwing Annual: 2022 #1 delivers a trio of stories with only one of them truly being worth your time. While it’s a little odd to have Heartless’ origin in an issue some readers may skip, Taylor’s script delivers a deliciously over the top rundown of who Heartless is and how he came to be. Unfortunately,…
Geoff Johns and Mikel Janín have joined forces to create a new 12-issue JSA series. It’s something a lot of readers have been looking forward to, seeing as the JSA hasn’t gotten a lot of panel time in recent years. Personally, I’m looking forward to seeing this creative team try something new with the book,…
Day 05 of our Holiday Gift Guide Extravaganza is all about atmosphere. Who wants to feel like they're at the office when they can feel like they're at Batman's office? Pairing the SecretLab TITAN Evo 2022 Dark Knight Chair and Magnus Desk with Dark Knight leatherette mat is about as close as you can get…
This fortress has collapsed under its own weight. Not that it was ever particularly sturdy to begin with but at this point, it isn’t holding whatsoever. I’ve only given what I consider a positive review to one issue, so it doesn’t matter how good this latest release is, the book as a whole is not…
Batman and Scooby-Doo are back together again and this month they’re taking on Poison Ivy! My experience with the last issue was somewhat less positive than I would have hoped so I was curious to see how I would feel about this one. Let’s get into it! I’m happy to say I had a better…
The brave and the bold tales of Batman and Robin continue in this latest installment of The Audio Adventures. After revealing the importance of the scimitar, Batman tracks the Demon Head to the sewers. However, Batman shockingly discovers it has landed in the clutches of a manic Killer Croc! The intricate narrative tapestry is starting…
Green Lantern pilots Hal Jordan and John Stewart prepare with Wally West to deliver Apokolips their first offensive blow. As the heroes commit to their sacrifice, the rest of the earth puts their faith in whatever Luthor has been working on. DC: Mech #3 is mostly a Green Lantern story. As previously mentioned, John and…
After a pretty solid first issue, and a REALLY solid month of playing this game, this series is back with its second installment, and it's great! I've been really impressed with this series so far, both the game and the comic have been way better than I think anyone was expecting. I don't want to…
Alexis Kaye is still figuring out what she is capable of. In the second issue of Punchline: The Gotham Game, Punchline makes her play for the docks owned by the Yakuza. The consequence of living so dangerously puts Punchline in direct conflict with Eiko Hasigawa, Catwoman, and Batman himself. As promised, Punchline does her best…
This month we return to Detective Comics as it picks up in another movement--strain--scene? Of Gotham Overture, this time titled: Something in the Way. It’s been a while since I took a music class, and we never studied operas, so forgive my spotty memory on how best to turn the titles of this series into…
The penultimate chapter of DC Vs. Vampires has finally begun! Batgirl, Supergirl, and Green Arrow each make their final plays against the vampire horde. Unfortunately, the stakes are sky high and there is no room for failure in their final hours. I want to ask Tynion and Rosenberg the hard questions first. The status of…
Dark Crisis: The Dark Army is the next entry in the current Dark Crisis event. Here it focuses less on the major players and world ending battle happening in the main titles, to a smaller team intent on figuring out a way to stop Pariah’s Dark Army. On the whole, The Dark Army is a…
