2 on Detective Comics #1072 reviewThis month Detective Comics kicks into high gear as Batman and his allies charge forward to confront the Orghams. Will pushing the pace into a higher gear jump start this run, and breathe some much needed momentum into things? Let’s see. Right away I want to say that I am so glad to see faster…
After teasing some further details about the Orgham’s past last month, this issue of Detective Comics makes good on its promise and delivers a backstory meant to give depth, and answer at least a few questions about what’s going on. Since we've seen so much of the family over this series, does this backstory really…
This month Detective Comics continues to work its way steadily deeper into the web of intrigue it’s built around the Orghams, and into Bruce’s own struggle with his continuing mission as Batman. Reading Detective Comics has begun to feel like a lesson in patience. I enjoy it, and each issue does take time to focus…
Last month’s issue ended with Two-Face rescuing Batman, after Harvey finally decided to let his other half know the Caped Crusader’s true identity. Injured, and under the care of not only Two-Face but the Ten Eyed Man as well, just what’s in store for Bruce this issue? Detective Comics is lovely, character focused, and always…
After a three part lead up to this in the backups, and an explosive ending last month, this issue of Detective Comics promises to focus heavily on Harvey Dent and his continuing struggle against himself and the azmer inside him. However things turn out, it’s sure to be interesting. I’ve long said that Harvey Dent…
After last month’s rather chilly ending to the main issue, and flash to the past during the annual, Detective Comics continues its exploration of Gotham’s past, and future with this latest installment. With the addition of Mr. Freeze into the mix, and the Orghams taking more and more steps to control Gotham, things are sure…
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…
This month the action really picks up in Detective Comics as Batman races to deal with the attack on the Orgham family. The fun doesn’t stop there as old faces from this run show up again, in new and surprising ways. I’m really enjoying this run of Detective Comics by Ram V. It’s ticking away…
After introducing Harvey Dent into the mystery, Ram V continues to develop his narrative here in Detective Comics #1064. This time he has new questions for Batman and the readers, and focuses deeper on characters like Talia and Bruce’s relationship. I am enjoying Detective Comics more and more with each issue I read written by…
Last month Ram V began his run on Detective Comics by plunging Batman into a strange new case involving ancient artifacts and people turning into monsters all while surrounding it in an operatic tone. This month he works to further those mysteries, and the personal questions he's challenged Batman with. Much like the previous…
Detective Comics #1062 is the opening act of Ram V’s time on the book. Promising operatic darkness, and a new enticing mystery this arc –and run– is sure to be an interesting one. I’m delighted to get a chance to review it, as Ram V is one of my favorite writers at DC right now.…
You guys ever just read an issue of a comic and remember why you started reading that book in the first place? That was me with Urban Legends #17. This book is nothing but pure, wacky team-up fun, and I LOVE it. It might be because I've been watching a lot of Brave and the Bold recently, but I…
Over the past two issues of this arc we’ve seen the Riddler weave riddles over the airwaves and Gotham citizens committing crimes without a solid reason. Tied with it all, is the mystery of Judge Donovon and the first of these crimes: the bombing of her courtroom. With the arc wrapping up, will Batman finally…
This issue Batman’s latest mystery deepens as the Riddler’s questions fill the airwaves, and citizens all around Gotham continue to commit crimes for no apparent reason. With a few more crimes, and more unanswered questions, will Batman figure this one out, or be left floundering? The story opens on Bruce and Judge Donoven having dinner…
When I first applied to write reviews for this site I wrote a practice review for Detective Comics and sent it in, with the hope that I could simply join the team. And now at last, I’m lucky enough to be given the opportunity to properly review the title itself. I am so excited to…
