At long last, Grant Morrison's Batman Incorporated finally returns! This time the team is no longer under Bruce Wayne's benevolent oversight, and is now led by Batman's infamous rival Ghost-Maker. However, the new regime hasn't made any believers out of its members nor the readers yet. To make matter's worse, a highly-skilled killer targets Batman's…
So far I haven’t enjoyed a single Ghost-Maker story. The character can be, and has been, criticized on many fronts, a big one being that the trope of creating new characters with a connection to Bruce’s past is kind of old and boring at this point. While I absolutely agree with that criticism, for me…
Batman/Catwoman #1 is yet another intriguing puzzle courtesy of Tom King, which is sure to satisfy his fans and frustrate his detractors. However, despite its chilly atmosphere and non-linear structure, the real mystery is exactly how this book will work its way through DC Comics’ sticky continuity. For those unaware, Batman/Catwoman is a continuation of…
Batman and Catwoman. How did they meet? How did they eventually come to fall in love? And what's mouse poop got to do with it? In Batman Annual #2, King brings us his vision of the way things were and other things that have not yet come to pass. The majority of this tale takes…

Originally published in last winter's Batman Annual, the story has been nominated for a well-deserved Eisner Award. To celebrate, the short has been made available to…
It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas! The weather—at least here on the East Coast—is finally getting nippy, and there are only a few weeks left before many of us will see our heads given over to visions of sugar plums. Or something. While it's still November (for another few hours, at least), this…
Over the last 6 months, the landscape of the Batverse has changed dramatically. While some of the new status quo was eagerly spelled out for us, other plot points were left frustratingly vague. Fortunately, this issue finally takes the time to sit us down and give us some kind of answers to questions I thought…
Now this is how you write a Batman Annual! While the cover indicates that this is a EndGame tie in, the truth of the matter is, it is really just an awesome, oversized Joker story, that requires no additional contextual knowledge in order to enjoy. Right from page 4, I knew exactly where this story…
