2 on Batman - Santa Claus: Silent Knight reviewHappy Holidays, Bat-fans! It’s been a rough past few days for me (no need to worry, just the standard Christmas travel nightmares!), so it’s nice to finally have a chance to sit down and read what has been one of my favorite comics this month! We’re doing this 4-issue miniseries in one go, but if…
It’s another issue of Off-World! Jason Aaron’s space epic left off on a rather disappointing note last issue, so I’m a little hesitant to dive back in. Ah, what the heck. Let’s do it! So, is it better? Sure is! Issue 2 makes the incredible decision to skip over most of the training it felt…
Luke Fox is curious about the unknown corners of the globe. Luckily, because his father stole Bruce's money during Joker War, he has the money and time to explore it. Indulging his quest for knowledge is Bat-Family black sheep Kate Kane and a new version of Wildstorm's Drummer. As equal partners, Kate has her own…
After Beast Boy's transformation, the entire DC Universe reels in shock of a worldwide shapeshifter epidemic. Horrifyingly, every nation of the world must contend with violent beast attacks. Pretty soon the Titans, Justice League, and all other metahumans become targets of the power hungry parasitic horde. If anything, I feel bad for Beast Boy. Let's…
The second installment of Gargoyle of Gotham by Rafael Grampá picks up where it left off. Batman defeats the ink covered serial killer Crytoon with his bare hands. However, the following investigation potentially reveals a complex web of corruption, and yet another serial killer is still on the loose! Don't Try This At Home Batman…
Batman: The Animated Series was a revolutionary series when it debuted, and it has more than stood the test of time three decades on. Its followup, The New Batman Adventures, was a more somber, serious affair, one that I absolutely adored when I was a kid. As time has gone on, my appreciation for it…
The first major challenge Gardner Fox presents for his Justice League in Brave In The Bold #28 (1960) is the conqueror, Starro. Throughout the decades, Starro would return, even reincarnating as the innocent "Jarro" in Scott Snyder's No Justice (2018). After the Justice League disbanded, it makes sense to christen the Titans with their own…
Aliens! Spaceships! Batman! That’s right folks, it’s Jason Aaron’s first outing writing the Dark Knight, and I for one couldn’t be more stoked about the premise! Anyone who knows me or my work knows that I’m a MASSIVE fan of the Brave and the Bold cartoon for its silly Silver-Age-ness, and that’s EXACTLY what Off-World promised. Did…
One of the first comics I remember reading in high school was the "Looking For Trouble" arc of Nightwing's Outsiders. Over the years, the team has continued to evolve and serve many purposes. This iteration reunites Kate Kane and Luke Fox for another unique mission of discovery. Specifically, Kelly and Lanzing exploit the opportunity to…
A funny thing happened while I was writing these action figure ranking posts. I took a trip down nostalgia lane with some of the lines, sure, but they also awakened memories I'd forgotten I even had. When I Googled an image to use for the last post, I was reminded of the existence of Batman:…
While promoting his new album Love: Off The Grid on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, musician and record executive Sean "Love" Combs a.k.a Diddy discussed his war with Warner Bros. Traditionally, the filthy-rich rapper throws elaborate Halloween parties around this time of year. Recently, Diddy has taken an interest in dressing in an expensive Heath Ledger Joker…
Temporarily coming in as a last minute substitute, I'll be your "Dante" through Neo Gothic's increasingly weird "Inferno." As Batman and Kyle delve further into the underground, they begin to experience gnostic hallucinations. Unfortunately, that means an entire issue of fighting their way out of a seemingly never ending nightmare! A Long Strange Trip Max…
Written and drawn by Hugo Award nominated artist Christian Ward, City of Madness introduces a dark conspiracy within Gotham City. While the upsetting return of Two-Face commands Batman's attention, a more ominous disaster brews deep underground. What follows is a madcap horror mystery that may push Batman to confront his darkest reflections. Multiple Personalities Frankly,…
Eisner award-winning writer and artist Rafael Grampá drags readers into a scrappy thriller set within a new kind of Gotham. In Gargoyle of Gotham, Batman faces two equally creepy serial killers in a corrupt city. However, as Batman uncover the darkness of the city, he begins to exposes the darkness within himself. A City of…
Batman Incorporated began with Batman's faith in Ghost-Maker to lead in his stead. Unfortunately, the challenge of keeping his promise to Batman pushes him to his limits. After unsuccessfully handling "Vengeance Inc." and now "Joker Incorporated," Ghost-Maker faces the reality that he may not be able to live up to Batman's expectations after all. Some…
Oh my god, it actually came out on schedule. This week on: Geoff Johns just kinda does whatever… You guessed it! Geoff Johns just kinda does whatever! This issue focuses on the lost kids that are Johns’ new pet project: sidekicks to the JSA that no one remembered until just now because… time travel! The…
Read past the end of the review for a final message on my time with Batman News. When I began reviewing Riddler: Year One late last year, I had a sneaking suspicion that this book was not built to be read month-to-month. In the age of the internet - especially streaming - how we release and…
At long last! The final chapter of Dark Knights Of Steel comes to a striking end. For twelve harrowing issues, the three kingdoms of the realm have gone to war because of a long standing lie. With Protex's evil influence out in the open, the kingdoms have finally turned their war in the right direction.…
Knight Terrors: Catwoman #2 perhaps bites off more than it can chew, but Tini Howard’s script does a good job of balancing its examination of Selina’s relationships with both Maggie and Bruce. Leila Leiz’s art is once again a major selling point, but for readers who don’t mind a two-part elseworlds story there is more…
Every now and then, DC Comics will shut down for a line wide event. In the last few years, the DC Universe froze in Endless Winter, been on storm watch in Lazarus Planet, and remains fast asleep during Knight Terrors. Typically, readers may expect the tie-ins to cover key characters amid other generally useless spin-offs.…
