0 on Batman: Gotham Knights - Gilded City #3 reviewIt's time to dive back into Gotham with our favorite vigilantes! A quick aside before we get started, I've been playing the Heroic Assault raids in Gotham Knights: The Game the Comic the Game, and they're a lot of fun! I teamed up with some friends, and we were able to clear most of the floors…
I can't believe this series is almost over! I'll save most of my retrospective and pining for more for the final review, but just know that there will be plenty. For now, let's take a look at this surprisingly stellar penultimate issue, because this series refuses to fade out quietly. Nightwing Presenting: The Director, Part…
Batman vs. Robin #4 is an action packed, emotionally resonant penultimate chapter that expertly brings together various threads from the series into a satisfying brawl. Mahmud Asrar and Scott Godlewski turn in excellent art that deliver the high stakes goods, while also deftly handling Waid’s melodramatic tendencies. The first three pages clearly establish the current…
Say, do you folks have any treasured holiday traditions? Things you do with family or friends that really just bring a smile to your face? Something that, if you didn’t do it, it wouldn’t really be the holidays? For me, that thing is watching movies. My mom raised me on the old Rankin Bass Christmas…
After a pretty solid first issue, and a REALLY solid month of playing this game, this series is back with its second installment, and it's great! I've been really impressed with this series so far, both the game and the comic have been way better than I think anyone was expecting. I don't want to…
This month we return to Detective Comics as it picks up in another movement--strain--scene? Of Gotham Overture, this time titled: Something in the Way. It’s been a while since I took a music class, and we never studied operas, so forgive my spotty memory on how best to turn the titles of this series into…
Catwoman #49 is the best issue in the series to come out in a while with its solid balance of well executed action sequences and a more nuanced depiction of Selina’s current love life. While the overarching narrative continues to be muddy at best, Tini Howard’s script gives Selina her clearest sense of purpose in…
After a particularly rocky first encounter with the One Bad Day series, I wasn't exactly hopeful for this issue. Admittedly, it's set during what might be my favorite era of Batman, starring Robin prominently, with one of my all time favorite Bat-villains as its antagonist (though that definitely didn't save Riddler), so I had no choice…
We're back again this week with more of your favorite anthology series, and it's a great issue, folks! There's some really creative stories this time around, and I don't want to waste too much time up here, so let's jump right in! The Wheelman of Gotham The initial installment of this incredible issue follows Batman…
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…
This month the action really picks up in Detective Comics as Batman races to deal with the attack on the Orgham family. The fun doesn’t stop there as old faces from this run show up again, in new and surprising ways. I’m really enjoying this run of Detective Comics by Ram V. It’s ticking away…
Hey there, Bat Fans! For those of you who didn’t know, I went to NYCC earlier this month, and it was incredible. Nick and Casper tagged along, which was super fun (more on that here), and I’m looking forward to doing it again next year! While I was there, I was lucky enough to get…
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…
After introducing Harvey Dent into the mystery, Ram V continues to develop his narrative here in Detective Comics #1064. This time he has new questions for Batman and the readers, and focuses deeper on characters like Talia and Bruce’s relationship. I am enjoying Detective Comics more and more with each issue I read written by…
Batman vs. Robin #1 overcomes most of the pitfalls a “versus” title faces at its very conception. I don’t like seeing heroes fight each other, but the return of a fan favorite character and aggressive pacing allows Mark Waid and Mahmud Asrar to cut to the chase and deliver equal parts spectacle and character drama.…
Dark Knights of Steel: Tales From The Three Kingdoms features an anthology of three young adult tales set within the Knights of Steel universe. Tom Taylor, Jay Kristoff, and C.S Pacat transport readers to a simpler time before the war between kingdoms breaks out. Each adventure follows orphans or members of the El family in…
Last month Ram V began his run on Detective Comics by plunging Batman into a strange new case involving ancient artifacts and people turning into monsters all while surrounding it in an operatic tone. This month he works to further those mysteries, and the personal questions he's challenged Batman with. Much like the previous…
Okay. I'm gonna be honest. I already had thoughts about this back when it was announced. Mostly thoughts of "oh god no", "boy they sure want to milk The Killing Joke for all it's worth, huh?", and "oh god please no why are you making The Riddler kill people why oh god oh god." The Riddler is…
Catwoman #46 is an emotionally resonant, if not haphazardly plotted chapter that prioritizes Selina’s understanding of herself, particularly in regards to her romantic relationships. The core narrative is underwhelming at this point as it features villains without an ounce of true intimidation. Nonetheless, Tini Howard’s angle on Selina is compelling and Sami Basri’s pencils deliver…
You guys ever just read an issue of a comic and remember why you started reading that book in the first place? That was me with Urban Legends #17. This book is nothing but pure, wacky team-up fun, and I LOVE it. It might be because I've been watching a lot of Brave and the Bold recently, but I…
