2 on Batman vs. Robin #3 reviewBatman vs. Robin #3 runs like clockwork, efficiently setting up an easy to track sequence of events that deliver fun action while also digging into the core dynamics of the Bat family. Art duties are split between Mahmud Asrar and Scott Godlewski, who both turn in solid work without a noticeable shift in quality. However,…
Gotham Knights has been out for about a week ago, and I gotta say- I'm having a blast. The story is heartfelt and interesting, the characters, while a little different than their comic book counterparts, are well-written and heartfelt, and the gameplay, while definitely a big change from the Arkham series, holds its own and…
The best laid schemes of mice and men often go awry. However, the plans of our super men and women have finally started to come together. Victory has come fairly easy for the bloodsucking regime ruling the DC Universe, but this may be the chance to meaningfully flip the script! This week in DC Vs.…
Nightwing #97 is a well executed issue that slows down the series after its bombastic climax in ”The Battle for Blüdhaven’s Heart”. The stakes are well defined, there’s simmering tension as crooked cops remain a present threat, and all the while Heartless remains hidden on the fringes. However, there’s a growing sense of safety and…
Nightwing #96 delivers a crowd pleasing, action packed finale to Tom Taylor’s “Battle for Blüdhaven’s Heart” storyline. The action is exciting, the character moments endearing, and the future of the series is brighter than ever. A few plot points feel rushed, particularly given the slow pace of Taylor’s run so far, but it’s hard to…
Batgirls #10 continues the girl’s investigation into the Hill Ripper and who killed their neighbor. The story feels light and fun, and keeps the detective work split evenly between Barbara on her own, and Steph and Cass. For me, something in Batgirls clicked this issue. We’re ten issues and a couple arcs in, and I…
To be honest, I've kind of been struggling to figure out how to properly introduce this thing. Lee Bermejo is one of my favorite Batman artists, and certainly one of the most prolific ever to touch the character. As such, a book that serves as a showcase for his work is a surefire hit. Every…
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: one of the greatest assets that McFarlane Toys has with their DC Multiverse figures is the variety of characters and properties they represent. More than that, they pull from all sorts of entertainment mediums, from comics to video games to movies and television shows. It seems…
DC Comics is one of the most popular and prolific publishers on the planet*. Zombies are one of the more popular horror creatures out there too, which makes sense because the undead are both terrifying and easy to adapt to practically any property. Combine the two and you've got yourself DCeased, DC's immensely successful take…
Nightwing #94 manages to keep the tension going strong by raising the stakes even further for Dick, Barbara, and especially Melinda Zucco, who finds herself more prevalent than before. Geraldo Borges fills in for Bruno Redondo again, but still delivers high quality art even if the overall aesthetic is much different. Tom Taylor’s script wastes…
Catwoman #45 brings the Bat family into the series in a major way with mixed results. While Selina and Bruce’s on again off again relationship has never truly left the series, here Tim, Stephanie, Cassandra, and even Dick Grayson all make appearances. These interactions inject some nuance into Selina’s current headspace, but the narrative stumbles…
After dropping Seer off at their door, and promising to help her the Batgirls finish making good on that agreement this month as they wrap up this two part mini-arc. Featuring not only the Batgirls, but Nightwing as well, it’s sure to be a fun one. I enjoyed issue #8 of Batgirls. It’s not perfect,…
Nightwing #93 is frustrating in that it’s so good that I question why Tom Taylor waited so long to finally turn up the heat in his core narrative. While last month’s issue got some praise in returning its focus to Blüdhaven, this issue doubles down by delivering great action and using that momentum to create…
Now that Batgirls has wrapped up its first arc, the story is moving forward at a steady pace into its next one. Last issue ended with Seer literally knocking at the girls' door, one of their enemies having come straight to them. Will they hear out her plea for help, or send her packing? Already…
Hey guys, and welcome back to another issue of Justice League-- No, wait. That doesn't sound right. Let me double-check something... Okay! Good, I was worried for a second. Last month was definitely the final issue of Justice League. Clearly, there must have been a printing error. Let me check the cover again. ...Weird. That's for sure the Justice…
Nightwing #92 finally has the series return its focus to Blüdhaven and Dick Grayson’s Haven project. There’s been a lack of momentum in the series’ larger narrative, but Tom Taylor’s script better manages to tell a contained story while also setting up compelling pieces with Blockbuster who has mostly stayed on the sidelines until now.…
Nightwing #90 features yet another attempt on Dick Grayson’s life, courtesy of Blockbuster and the city officials who are in his pocket. While the narrative definitely spins its wheels with a third issue dedicated to attempts on Dick’s life, this one succeeds in upping the stakes by putting more civilians in harm’s way as ever.…
Nightwing #89 spins a rote murder mystery that serves only to distract from the more engaging moments between Dick Grayson and Jon Kent. This issue reads more like a Tom Taylor greatest hits, built for fans of his recent work before fans of Nightwing himself. Bruno Redondo turns in excellent work as per usual, but…
Nightwing #88 slows down the pace from the previous chapter of the “Get Grayson” arc, which allows Tom Taylor’s script to recalibrate the current threat Dick faces. While last month’s issue was light on plot, leaving Bruno Redondo to treat readers to a visual feast, this chapter feels more like the opening of an arc…
Nightwing #87 features marvelous art dampened slightly by a thin story that is nonetheless tailor fit for the format of the issue. Each page is a double page spread, which are all connected to create one image if placed side by side. While this allows Bruno Redondo and colorist Adriano Lucas to flex their creative…
