20 on Event Leviathan #4 reviewThe hunt for Leviathan continues! Will we come any closer to knowing the identity of the mysterious person on top? I won't spoil it for you, but I will say this: NOT REALLY! Is it worth your time and money? Find out below. SPOILERS AHEAD. Here we go again It's Event Leviathan day again, and with its…
The DC Gallery collection presents reproductions of some of the most iconic props and art from across the DC Universe. For the latest release, the team has launched a collection of Batman cowls, each representing a beloved rendition of the Dark Knight’s headgear from comics, games and much more. The latest piece in the series…
Harley Quinn #65 takes on a more somber tone than many of the other issues in this run. It’s still got that Quinn-tessential charm that Harley’s stories have, but Humphries tones down the wackiness just enough to make things respectful to the issue at large as Harley is forced to come to terms with the…
Right from the beginning, Doomsday Clock has been endlessly fascinating. Even if a particular issue is rather slow, there's still so much going on that I'm constantly fascinated by this book. I've said it before, but I love reviewing Doomsday Clock because it's about something. There are so many layers to the narrative that I…
Tom Taylor’s DCeased miniseries has been an equally entertaining and emotional rollercoaster ride through an apocalyptic, zombie-infested DC Universe. While the latest issue of the main series left us with one helluva cliffhanger, we take a sidestep this month to check in with a few other characters that aren’t featured as prominently in the main…
Last month, I lamented that Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III felt like it was spinning its wheels. Pieces were moved around the proverbial chessboard to prepare for the final conflict, but not much actually happened. This month, there's a whole lot more positioning of characters and set up for the inevitable final battle, but holy…
DC’s young adult imprint, DC Ink, just released its latest graphic novel, Harley Quinn: Breaking Glass. Creating a new origin story for Harley, this reimagining introduces readers to her as a fifteen year old, struggling to navigate life, discover who she is, and make the right choices as her home is threatened by a wave…
Let’s get this out of the way: yes, I will be making plant puns in this review. No, I will not be apologizing for them. I will also not be pointing them out, because it’s quite likely that some of them will be unintentional. If you have any problems with this, please place your concerns…
Oh wow, this is an honour!!! After working as hard as I could to get through the selection process, I finally get to write my first review for Batman-News. Sure, getting the job wasn’t easy – writing a review for Batman: Odyssey as part of the audition process was particularly difficult – but if I…
The Justice League is spread across time! The quest to find pieces of the Totality hit a bump in the proverbial road last week, and what was supposed to be a simple recon and recovery mission got a lot more complicated. Can the Justice Society and the Last Boy on Earth help the Leaguers find…
At the end of the last issue, the Terrible Trio (criminals masked as a Shark, Fox, and Vulture) reawakened the android that was Babs’s Oracle avatar with the help of Lex Luthor. Meanwhile, Babs was getting her butt kicked by Killer Moth. In issue #38, their showdown leads to hints of something bigger behind him,…
Although Batman/Superman is a brand new ongoing series (previous World's Finest series notwithstanding), it should be clear that its first arc, “Who are the Secret Six?”, is a direct continuation of the 7-part The Batman Who Laughs miniseries by Scott Snyder and Jock. It isn’t necessary to have read Snyder and Jock’s comic because there’s plenty…
Jason Todd has been many things since Red Hood started it’s rebirth run: hero, outlaw, Iceberg Lounge owner, and now, teacher. When Lex made his offer I was surprised. I was expecting something like powers, or maybe the Joker’s head on a plate. Instead, Lex played on Jason’s vanity, he promised to let Jason do…
I’ve been reading and watching a lot of Batman Beyond the last few weeks to re-familiarize myself with the world and its characters. In doing so, I’ve fallen back in love with all that the Beyond universe has to offer both Batman fans and those interested in more cyberpunk themes such as the danger of…
So right off the bat (ha HAAAA), let me tell you: this is a super weird issue of Detective Comics. That's not inherently a bad thing, as it's plenty entertaining, but it feels a lot different than any other Batcentric issue of any title in the DC stable. If you want to get an idea…
The Justice Doom War starts here! Perpetua has very nearly risen, and Apex Luthor and his band of evil ninnies are getting ready to put the pain on the Justice League! Who will prevail? Who will perish? Who knows? Read Justice League #30! Keep it moving Justice League #30 is a very good issue. It's not…
Batman's problems are about to get a lot bigger. His old pal Joker is up to no good again, and this time, he's got some new friends. Azrael rises, in Batman: Curse of the White Knight #2! An effective flashback Batman: Curse of the White Knight #1 began in flashback, and so does #2. The flashbacks have…
I have a confession to make: The Dark Knight Returns is not one of my favorite Batman stories. Sure, it's got iconic imagery and some inspired dialogue and narration, but I'm just not crazy about the whole picture. But I do like how big and beefy Batman looks, and I never get tired of seeing different companies…
I don't know about you, but I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Shazam earlier this year. I thought all of the performances were quite good, the movie was crazy fun, and it actually had some poignant—and creepy—moments to season it further. I was happy to see Diamond Select announce a line of products for the film; and, while…
I'm repeating myself yet again, but Diamond Select's Vinimates have really grown on me. I've got probably over twenty of them now, and I don't see myself stopping while DST is still making them. Our contact shipped a box of goodies out a week or two ago, and amidst some fantastic Godzilla stuff, there were…
