22 on New 52 - Batman and Wonder Woman #30 reviewAfter being defeated at his island base, Ra's al Ghul absconded with the bodies of Talia and Damian to the mysterious Paradise Island. Like any mortal man, Bruce does not know the way to the mythological locale and employs Wonder Woman to guide him on the next stage of his journey to recover the remains…
Since the death of Damian Wayne, the New 52 series "Batman & Robin" has gone through a variety of name changes that pair Batman with the likes of Nightwing, Two-Face, Batgirl, and even Aquaman, but this July we will see the title reinstate Robin as The Dark Knight's partner in the war against Gotham's criminals.…
It's Batman and Aquaman teaming up to find Robin's body. Sound strange? It is, but it's a good kind of strange that I think will get you really excited about this all-new arc (it's a great jumping-on point) and it makes for an awesome continuation of Grant Morrison's work on the New 52 Batman Incorporated…
Not enough people are talking about what happens in this comic! I know I've been getting a little more relaxed in the pace I release reviews. I think I deserve it after cranking out 4-8 reviews (clocking in at around a thousand words an article, this one's 1,900+ by the way) per Wednesday, but I…
Last year's annual was a tough act for Peter J. Tomasi & Doug Mahnke to follow and while I don't think this issue quite reached the same heights as Damian's home alone adventure, it came close and that's a heck of a compliment. If there's one thing that the Batman & Robin title has been…
Batman is pinned down in an open grave. He can hear the sound of Harvey taunting Erin above and he knows by the cadence of Dent's voice that Two-Face is in control. "The Big Burn: Ablaze" picks up exactly where we left off in issue #26. It's grim and filled with tension that finally snaps in…
To better understand how the New 52 Two-Face came to be we must first understand the person who created him and it's not Sal Maroni. The third chapter of "The Big Burn" is one that takes us deeper into the past than ever before while simultaneously continuing the present day storyline in which Two-Face is…
The title may be "Batman and Robin" but it's The Boy Wonder who steals the show and makes the book his own. Batman and Robin, Vol. 3: Death of the Family features some of the best moments Damian Wayne has ever had, but it's also only 4-issues long (not counting the final chapter of Snyder…
In the stories from issues #15-17, BATMAN #17 and BATMAN AND ROBIN ANNUAL #1, Damian battles The Joker—with catastrophic results! What secrets will be revealed? Find out when Batman and Robin Vol. 3: Death of the Family goes on sale on November 27th. Here is Batman News’ exclusive preview, click on any image below to…
Last month we saw that writer Peter J. Tomasi was not only going to tell a new Two-Face story with the latest arc of Batman and ___, but he would be rewriting history with an all-new origin that would be vastly different than the one from The Long Halloween, a fan favorite. This new take…
Last week we saw the birth of the Joker take place in Zero Year, but it appears that the New 52 birth of Two-Face really snuck up on us! It's never explained how, but Two-Face has escaped from Arkham Asylum (he was locked up again at the end of Death of the Family and this…
It's very similar to last November's Arkham Unhinged #8 and it has a lot of the same flaws as that comic as well. First off, the cover by Patrick Gleason looks pretty cool in my opinion (even if he drew Croc with only 3 fingers and a thumb) and once again you have to applaud…
Ra's al Ghul has lived for hundreds of years and witnessed the rise and fall of empires. Some civilizations have even crumbled at his feet. So how does the Demon's head react to the emergence of the Secret Society of Super Villains? Writer James Tynion IV proves with this issue that he gets the character.…
The Court of Owls stand out in Villains Month because the focus isn't on one single bad guy, but an entire organization that's been around for hundreds of years. How do you approach that for a one-shot? Well, if you're James Tynion IV, author of the ongoing Talon series, you tell 4 scary, short stories…
The best villain's month issue I've read yet. Writer Peter J. Tomasi doesn't devote the entire comic to flashbacks to an origin story we've seen countless times, he actually deals with the aftermath of Forever Evil, which is what more of these villain books should be doing! And what do we get as a result?…
Go fetch a box of tissues, bat-fans, because Peter J. Tomasi is here to make you shed some tears. "But it features Nightwing this month and Nightwing always makes me smile!" you exclaim. Well, I hate to break it to you but if this comic was labeled honestly it would be called Batman & Alfred…
LATE REVIEW EDITION I was at Comic-Con last week so I didn't read this book until...ten minutes ago...ish. Seeing as how most of you have probably already made your decision as to whether or not you'll buy this one I'll keep things short and sweet. Yes, it's good. I never know what sort of quality…
We've reached the bargaining phase of Batman's 5 stages of grief and it's Batgirl's turn at the plate as the latest guest star. In addition to all of that it was also hinted in the last issue that Carrie Kelly would be showing up more and Two-Face would also rise up as the newest threat…
Batman and Robin, Vol. 2 has what is probably the most macabre looking cover to ever accompany the title "Pearl." This volume also happens to be, in my opinion, the low-point in an otherwise terrific series. Content Pearl collects issues #0, 9-14. That means you get: So why "Pearl"? My thoughts exactly. The pearl in…
Remember how Talia placed a bounty on Damian's head and a whole mess of assassins jumped at the chance to shoot a 10 year old boy for five-hundred million dollars? Yeah... Batman didn't forget about that and now he wants Red Hood to tag along with him as they track down every last bounty hunter…
