15 Years of Coverage (2010-2025)

Batman’s been Memento’d! He has only the fragmented messages he leaves himself every twenty two minutes and his analytical mind to solve the mystery that is Fortnite! Will he be able to solve it? (Yes.) Or will his feelings for this mysterious woman dressed like a cat hold him back? (No.) Let’s hop in and…
Last we left Task Force X, they'd successfully(?) broken Talon out of prison, and were gearing up to go after Bolt, a new speedster on the block. Will they succeed? What perils await them along their journey? More importantly, will we see Peacemaker get his after last issue's altercation? Let's find out, shall we? The…
It's been three issues since we first saw the star-shaped alien invaders of Earth-3, and things have never looked worse for our heroes(?) than last we left them. The entire world's metahuman population is bearing down on them, and their only plan is coming from a terrifying urban legend holding a tentacle and a glowing…
It's the penultimate issue of Man-Bat and, uh, well... it's beautiful. This story can only be described with one word: kickass. Everything has been building for a long time, and the payoff begins in this book. I literally cannot figure out how to stop gushing about this, so let's just dive into this. The Writing…
Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed this issue of Batman. It’s far from perfect. Hell, it’s far from great. But… Miracle Molly might be the best character that Tynion has created during his run on Batman. Unfortunately, this book feels like anything but a Batman book. There are currently a lot of moving parts…
We’re near the end of the current Batman: Black and White run! For the most part, I’ve really enjoyed this book. There have been some nice stories and incredible art along the way, but I do feel as though the best overall quality was front-ended to earlier issues. Will that trend continue? Find out below!…
Harley Quinn #1 was much better than I expected it to be. While writer Stephanie Phillips did a serviceable job at the Future State version of the title, it was difficult to tell—within the confines of that sandbox—how she might fare in the open-ended context of an ongoing title. So with the arrival of this week's #2,…
Issue #2 of Teen Titans Academy has dropped. Will it rekindle our (or at least my) dwindling excitement for this series? Or has the fire died? Okay, maybe it’s not that dramatic. But it’s kind of close. Magic/Adventure Academy-ish stories have been my raison d’etre the past few months (for, cough, research purposes), so I…
This is a great comic! Among the many different books on stands these days, Batman/Superman certainly stands out. While it’s too early to judge the overall quality of the current arc, seeing as this is only the second chapter and more will follow, I am totally on board for now, and I appreciate that Yang…
This is the second chapter of Tamaki’s first arc on Detective Comics. Last month’s episode was fun, even though it was mostly setup for the rest of the story. My main complaint about the previous issue was that the creative team and editors weren’t paying as much attention to detail as I would have liked.…
Of all the stories to expect out of DC Comics, seeing team RWBY and the Justice League in a crossover was not something I imagined. Am I complaining? No. I think the idea has the potential to be a ton of fun. So much so, that I could not help being intrigued enough to volunteer…
I have been unreasonably excited for Robin since its announcement. Part of me wanted to curb that enthusiasm so I wouldn't be disappointed, but come on. Damian? In a fighting tournament? Just take me back to my teenage years where I was glued to the TV watching the likes of Yu Yu Hakusho and Saint…
So. You want to make a Batman comic. Simple enough, right? Over the course of 80 years, Batman has become one of the most versatile characters in all of popular culture. He’s been everywhere: travelling the world, the universe and the spacetime continuum itself! Batman can be found doing anything, anywhere a creator likes. There’s…
The Batman/Fortnite crossover is among us. When I chose — Yep, totally definitely absolutely chose to. Of my own free will and stuff. Not like I was forced to review this because I’m low on the totem pole. That would be barbaric. h e l p m e — to review Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point, I…
Catwoman #30 is a set up issue, but Ram V’s script makes sure to dole out the necessary exposition with ample style. While this month’s issue lacks the sheer amount of action and stakes of the previous chapter, artist Fernando Blanco takes full advantage of the exciting moments he’s afforded and supplies more than enough…
Justice League: Prisms I remember when I started reading Scott Snyder’s Justice League, fresh off the heels of Dark Nights: Metal and No Justice. Honestly, the beginning of that book was one of the best openings to a team book I’d ever read: it established the team dynamic perfectly, set up an interesting and high-stakes…
Nightwing #79 shows that Tom Taylor understands not only what makes Dick Grayson tick but what makes him appealing to so many readers in the first place. So far, this is a very pleasant series. It has a strong community vibe and gives Blüdhaven a sense of character that has long been missing. Bruno Redondo’s…
Joker (aka Jim Gordon but we can’t call it that because it wouldn’t sell) issue #2 is out, folks. The stakes are raised as new contenders for the Joker’s head enter the picture. Will Gordon’s newfound bat-resources be enough to give him the edge over these powerful new foes? Will our plot-armor-clad murder clown ever…
A Batman mini written by Tom Taylor? It was a proposition I couldn't resist. Andy Kubert on pencils? I was there before the book was printed. Damian as Batman, at least as suggested by his costume and the lack of "Bruce" anywhere in the solicit? The pitch just kept getting better. But pitches are pitches,…
I cannot tell you all how delighted I am to be reviewing Challenge of the Super Sons. I’ve loved each iteration of the Super Sons series. Superboy and Robin make one of the most delightful teams I've read in comics. Which means, I was obviously devastated when Jon got aged up. I’m not kidding, I’m…
