  • Knight Terrors: Catwoman #1 review

    Knight Terrors: Catwoman #1 is a successful addition to the Knight Terrors event that is a strong read even on its own. Tini Howard’s script does an excellent job creating a strange, yet uncannily familiar world that feels equal parts nightmarish and optimistic. Selina’s role in the story is nuanced and expands upon her self-doubts…


  • Batgirls #19 review

    Batgirls enters its final issue this month as it wraps up a short arc focused on The Hill, the people within, and the Batgirls place in all of it. As the series comes to  close, it strives to tie together themes and ideas from the series, as well as the arc itself. Let’s take a…


  • Batgirls #18 review

    Last month Batgirls began the final arc in its run. The focus this time is on The Hill and the community that resides there as they react to a shocking sniper attack and rally to protect those they care about. This issue takes all that and builds on it, bringing together much of the cast…


  • Batgirls #17 review

    Batgirls moves into a new arc this month, focusing on crime situated in The Hill, the Batgirls' home and main location they strive to protect. The crime in question is a sniper, and as the girls investigate they learn more about the place they’ve come to call home, and the others living there. I’ll start…


  • DC's Terrors Through Time #1 review

    DC's Terrors Through Time is a fright filled anthology of DC's heroes as they face off against their darkest fears, ghostly hauntings, and the perils of trick or treating. These eight tales feature a varied cast of characters, adventures, and creative teams and at least one is sure to be up your alley. The reviews…


  • Batgirls #11 review

    The mystery of the Hill Ripper continues in this month’s Batgirls. Their investigation deepens as outside sources give them help and support. Additionally their relationships grow and change in their day to day lives.  I mentioned this in my last review, but I feel like with this arc the story is finding a groove that…


  • Batgirls #10 review

    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…


  • Batgirls #9 review

    Batgirls continues this month with it’s more focused narrative, aiming it’s story at just a few elements rather than trying to tackle everything and the kitchen sink. Last month they wrapped up the plotline focused on Seer and the Saints and now time for the Batgirls to move onto a new mystery: Just who is…


  • Batgirls #8 review

    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,…


  • The Joker #15 review

    After a one month break The Joker is back to wrap up the series with its final issue. We left off last time with Batman staring down Jim Gordon asking the same question most readers probably were: What happened to the Joker? This issue promises to tell us that, and more. The final issue of…


  • Batgirls #7 review

    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…


  • Batgirls #6 review

    Batgirls is at the end of its first arc, and what an opening story it’s been. Packed full of new locations, bad guys, and adventure the girls have been more than busy. Let’s see how all the pieces of their first puzzle come together, shall we? This issue of Batgirls pretty much picks up right…


  • Batgirls #5 review

    My excitement over Batgirls seems to be dwindling with every issue I pick up. Five issues in and I feel like the plot is in roughly the same place it was at the very start, which doesn't make for a very exciting story. The Batgirls are still fighting the same set of villains they were…


  • Batgirls #4 review

    With the Batgirls making headway into their investigation into Tutor last issue, will they finally catch him this time around? And what about all those other villains they keep tangling with, will they make any progress finding them this month? We’re four issues into Batgirls and honestly? It still doesn't feel like it knows what…


  • Batgirls #3 review

    The Batgirls are busy busy busy as they try to settle into their new home, and unravel the many mysteries surrounding them. Last month they made some headway on that, but were interrupted at the end by Tutor hypnotizing a crowd of people and even Stephanie! Just what is going on here? This issue continues…


  • Batgirls #2 review

    With the first issue of Batgirls behind us, I find myself excited to see where this series is going. Issue #1 got the trio together up, and left off with the exciting introduction of some antagonists. This next issue promises to build off all that and give us even more fun than the first, so…


  • Batgirls #1 review

    It’s here, one of the titles I’ve been asking for almost since the moment I fell headlong into Batman comics. Batgirls! At long last we are being gifted a title featuring not one, not two, but all three Batgirls together on their very own adventure. It’s safe to say I’m very excited for this series,…
