Batman’s been Memento’d! He has only the fragmented messages he leaves himself every twenty two minutes and his analytical mind to solve the mystery that is Fortnite! Will he be able to solve it? (Yes.) Or will his feelings for this mysterious woman dressed like a cat hold him back? (No.) Let’s hop in and…
The Batman/Fortnite crossover is among us. When I chose — Yep, totally definitely absolutely chose to. Of my own free will and stuff. Not like I was forced to review this because I’m low on the totem pole. That would be barbaric. h e l p m e — to review Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point, I…
Catwoman #30 is a set up issue, but Ram V’s script makes sure to dole out the necessary exposition with ample style. While this month’s issue lacks the sheer amount of action and stakes of the previous chapter, artist Fernando Blanco takes full advantage of the exciting moments he’s afforded and supplies more than enough…
Nightwing #79 shows that Tom Taylor understands not only what makes Dick Grayson tick but what makes him appealing to so many readers in the first place. So far, this is a very pleasant series. It has a strong community vibe and gives Blüdhaven a sense of character that has long been missing. Bruno Redondo’s…
Batman/Catwoman #4 is mean down to the bone. No one, except the villains, likes each other and Tom King’s script offers mass murderers a sense of camaraderie our heroes seem incapable of possessing. Maybe that’s the point, I have little doubt it’s intentional, but between sloppy transitions and the detached aura the fractured narrative creates,…
Catwoman #29 is another strong outing for Ram V and Fernando Blanco that manages to expand the scope of the series without falling under the weight of its ambition. There are aspects of the narrative that feel a little sudden, but the added characters spice up the series and gently nudge the book into a…
Future State: Catwoman #2 solidifies this two part story as my favorite of the entire Future State line. Otto Schmidt’s art remains immaculate, Ram V’s script is well paced, and there’s a sense of closure while remaining open ended if this storyline is ever to be picked up again. All in all, Future State: Catwoman…
Batman/Catwoman #3 refines some themes Tom King set up in previous issues while slightly advancing the core narrative across the three time periods established so far. There’s no surprises in this issue, but the tense atmosphere remains palpable despite a narrative that amounts to spinning plates and waiting for one to finally crash. In previous…
Future State: Catwoman #1 is one of the best books to come out of DC’s latest initiative. Ram V’s script is perfectly paced and engaging. The world building is more nuanced than most other Future State books and Otto Schmidt’s art delivers the goods when it comes to both spectacle and delicate character moments. Even…
Batman/Catwoman #2 delivers more of the same, but that’s not always a bad thing. Non-linear storytelling, striking art, and a compelling, though still vague, mystery drives this month’s issue. It’s a delicate balancing act, but whenever Tom King’s script lags in plot progression or clarity, Clay Mann’s beautiful art picks up the slack and almost…
Ram V and Fernando Blanco turn in another fiercely paced, well constructed chapter with Catwoman #28. While there are very minor flaws in a few beats, V’s script manages to turn what could’ve been a generic mob war plotline into a fun, heist oriented showdown that’s equal parts Home Alone and Heat. V’s script sets…
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…
Catwoman #27 is monumental. No, there’s no major event in this issue. There’s no new character introduced that speculators will buy up in hopes to make a profit. There’s just twenty-two pages of confident, enthralling, and downright beautiful storytelling on display. Ram V and Fernando Blanco have been firing on all cylinders in this series…
While last month’s issue gave a glimpse at what Ram V and Fernando Blanco had in store for their run, Catwoman #26 delivers a more focused and intriguing set of obstacles for Selina to overcome. V’s Selina is far removed from the self loathing mess of previous arcs and while there are a few cracks…
While the last two issues of Catwoman were a fun enough diversion, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the start to Ram V and Fernando Blanco’s run beginning with this week’s Catwoman #25. Is it unfortunate that the first issue of their ongoing run is a Joker War tie in? Sure, but V does a great job…
Catwoman #24 manages to land a solid ending to an otherwise overstretched storyline that never quite honed in on a coherent theme. Blake Northcott’s script has fun on the mind, but the more nuanced writing and characterization feels rushed within this two-issue arc. Nonethless, Cian Tormey’s art, combined with Northcott’s emphasis on the fun factor…
Before Ram V and Fernando Blanco take over the series proper in two months, we have a two-issue arc courtesy of writers Blake Northcott and Sean Gordon Murphy with art by Cian Tormey. While last month’s fill-in issue went high in the camp factor, Catwoman #23 feels like a love letter to 80s action exploitation…
I just watched Batman Returns again recently, and I've got to tell you: I think it's the weakest of the series. The film doubles the villain count from Batman—triples it if you throw in Max Schreck—but crams everyone into a positively claustrophobic Gotham City that apparently doesn't have enough citizens to make a tree lighting more well-attended…
