11 on Batman/Catwoman #7 reviewBatman/Catwoman #7 features a shake-up in both plot and artistic merits, providing a breath of fresh air to an already improving series. Liam Sharp takes over art duties for this issue, creating a wildly different atmosphere for the book even down to its more sensual romance scenes. And while the plot is still loosely sketched,…
Welp, we’ve arrived Teen Titans Academy’s beach episode... A beach episode that definitely — like the yearbook or any of the cornucopia of crossovers and the like — wouldn’t feel earned. But, fortunately for us, the summer fun is only the setup for some, dare I say it, monkey business. ART Rafa Sandoval’s pencils are…
This is it! Fear State starts here! When this event was announced, none of us knew that it would be James Tynion’s final story on Batman, but, as fate would have it, that is our reality. If anything, the fact that this is Tynion’s swan song has only increased interest in Fear State. So, how…
Yes, the main story from Yang and Reis’ run ended in issue #21, but we haven’t seen the last of the Superman, Batman and Robin from the Archive of Worlds! Their stories continue in this annual, and I can say upfront that if you’ve enjoyed Yang’s run so far, you’re going to want to pick…
There's a reptilian menace on the loose, and Batman's big bads are in its sights. But what happens when the biggest bad of them all gets involved? Can the mystery mauler make minced meat of Mr. J? Answers are in Batman: Reptilian #3! Strengths and weaknesses I repeat myself, but I think this book's biggest weakness…
After being blinded by some extremely charming Green Arrow/Question content last issue, I realized this time around that I forgot to ask one very important question: No really, who is Daemon Rose? We didn't see anything about that last issue. Like, seriously, the name Daemon Rose is absent for the entire thing. Not one mention. I…
Here we are. The conclusion to Yang and Reis’ story. Yes, there will be one more issue after this as well as an annual, so this series isn’t quite over yet, but this is indeed the conclusion to the story that started in issue #16. I don’t want this series to end. I don’t want…
The current Detective Comics run has been hit or miss for me. I’ve enjoyed some issues and I’ve disliked others. The main draw for me is still Mora and Bellaire’s art, and when Mora isn’t on art duties—as is the case with this issue—I’m glad that Bogdanovic is stepping in. But, as good as the…
Damian has had quite the journey so far in Robin. He’s joined a death tournament, died, come back to life, attended a beach party, been thrown off a cliff, and last month had some quality time with his grandfather, Ra’s al Ghul. This month he’s set to face yet another challenge: convincing his predecessor Robins…
Last we checked in with Team RWBY and the Justice League they had finally come face to face with their friends, and a number of the missing people, all controlled by a mysterious force. Joined by Aquaman, and rescued by Jessica Cruz, they escaped into a ship constructed from their will and the power of…
For this month’s installment of Batman Secret Files, we get a focus on Clownhunter. The last time we saw Bao, he was breaking into Leslie Thompkins’ clinic and appeared to be on a better, more heroic path. Will that continue? Find out below. (Hint: The answer is no.) Look, I’m going to be honest with…
Batman/Catwoman #6 is one of the better entries of the series so far. While the narrative momentum still has its issues between the delayed shipping schedule and the three time period structure, the tangible moment to moment scenes are more engaging than usual. Now if only I could remember what the hell is going on.…
Catwoman #34 more than lives up to the high expectations last month’s cliffhanger set for it. Ram V’s script is excellently paced, mature in its approach to Selina’s relationship with Bruce, and features excellent action that is equal parts thrilling and clever. There’s been nary a misstep in this series and the momentum keeps rolling.…
Nightwing #83 snaps the series back into focus, armed with a great action sequence, tender moments between Dick and others, and an ending that finally solidifies a direction for the series. While I can’t shake a sense of fan service that permeates through the book, Taylor and Redondo execute their vision with ample precision and…
Legends of the Dark Knight #4 is a single issue story featuring a mystery that spans both Gotham’s past and present as Batman investigates a series of murders committed by the West End Wraith. Will Batman be able to figure out who the West End Wraith was, or is that a mystery better left to…
The main feature of last month’s Joker was a flashback, providing a little more insight into the history between Joker and Jim and really highlighted Jim’s own growing obsession with him. This month, the story returns to the present and we finally get to see where Jim is now. I am not shy about my…
What makes a good spy? If you ask the world of Hollywood, I think you'd get a significantly different answer than if you asked someone who really worked in a secret service. Movies such as the James Bond franchise might have you believe being a secret agent is all about sneaking through exotic locales in…
Before I start this review, I think it's important to read my recently uploaded review for The Next Batman: Second Son. Make no mistake, I Am Batman #0 is not the start to a new series, but the end of a previous one - and while I liked Second Son, it's a little frustrating that the creative…
At the beginning of 2021, Future State was released into the world - and whether you like it or not, it's been one of the driving forces of momentum for DC's universe as of late. Personally, I've found it kind of interesting! Seeing where places such as Gotham City are in the near future is…
Four issues in and I still can't tell how I feel about this book. In the beginning, I saw a lot of things that I liked, but there were a lot of things that made me think "well, on the other hand..." Then there started to be more and more hands, until there were just…
