0 on Batman and Robin and Howard #3 ReviewTension between Damian Wayne and Howard comes to a head in part three of this repurposed series of the well-received graphic novel by Jeffrey Brown. After being in a fight with one another, the two boys are somewhat forced to be cordial and work together which might lead them to actually realizing that they might…
If Morrison's Batman has one lasting legacy, it has to be Damian Wayne. When he first came into the series, it was a major shakeup to the status quo, and a lot of people were not happy. Here was this petulant, entitled, brat of child who claimed to be Batman's long lost son. In the…
As Tom Taylor's run nears its end, Nightwing #113 works as a makeshift anthology for its #300 issue milestone. Somewhat feeling like an annual, it features three consecutive stories told by Tom Taylor, Marv Wolfman, and Richard W. Conrad. The issue honors the spirit of the run so far, and ominously teases what's to come.…
Batman and Robin and Howard returns for the repurposed part two of four of Jeffrey Brown’s acclaimed graphic novel. Damian Wayne had just transferred to a new school after messing up while on patrol with Batman, and he meets a fellow student named Howard. A rivalry between the two boys starts to develop and part…
Imperceptibly, Nightwing makes use of its cat meme cover and tells an actual "cat person" story. By the convenience of Beast World, Nightwing and Jon Kent team up to track down Damian when he goes missing. Although, they may need to pry him out of the hands of DC's newest "Beast Woman." Good Cop, Super…
The penultimate chapter of DCeased: War of the Undead Gods has begun! Every story thread spun from the beginning finally leads into a big conflict. As Darkseid and the forces of Anti-living reach Earth-2, the good guys make their desperate last stand. After Alfred Pennyworth made the choice to kill the final members of his…
Batman vs. Robin #5 wraps up the series with a suitable amount of heart and bombast, even if the ultimate result feels familiar. While reading the previous Lazarus Planet issues isn’t required, some may find themselves a little lost if they only stuck to this mainline series. Mark Waid’s script does a decent job of…
Lazarus Planet finally comes back around to its main storyline. As the Lazarus storm rages on, King Fire Bull makes his move on Black Alice. All the heroes, villains, and sorcerers unite together to bring magic back to normal for the sake of the planet. Nevertheless, their combined efforts may not be enough. Nobody wants…
Built on the back of the narrative started in Batman/Superman: World's Finest and Batman Vs. Robin, Mark Waid infects the entire DC magical Universe with a massive story about the conflict between fathers and sons. Can We Save The Planet? Lazarus Planet begins with Batman's failure and the destruction of Lazarus Island by King Fire…
Well, it's finally here. The final issue of Urban Legends. I have to say, I'll be really sad to see this series go. We've had highs and lows, for sure, but man, those highs were high. We got some genuinely great stories out of this thing, like the Question/Batman team-up, the super fun Ace and friends storyline,…
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…
The penultimate chapter of DC Vs. Vampires has finally begun! Batgirl, Supergirl, and Green Arrow each make their final plays against the vampire horde. Unfortunately, the stakes are sky high and there is no room for failure in their final hours. I want to ask Tynion and Rosenberg the hard questions first. The status of…
Dark Crisis: The Dark Army is the next entry in the current Dark Crisis event. Here it focuses less on the major players and world ending battle happening in the main titles, to a smaller team intent on figuring out a way to stop Pariah’s Dark Army. On the whole, The Dark Army is a…
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…
Batman vs. Robin #3 runs like clockwork, efficiently setting up an easy to track sequence of events that deliver fun action while also digging into the core dynamics of the Bat family. Art duties are split between Mahmud Asrar and Scott Godlewski, who both turn in solid work without a noticeable shift in quality. However,…
The best laid schemes of mice and men often go awry. However, the plans of our super men and women have finally started to come together. Victory has come fairly easy for the bloodsucking regime ruling the DC Universe, but this may be the chance to meaningfully flip the script! This week in DC Vs.…
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…

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…
