Being a good writer doesn't mean that you're also going to be a good artist and being a great artist like Tony Daniel doesn't mean that you're also going to write great stories. "Faces of Death" collects the first 7 issues of the New 52 "Detective Comics" series written and drawn by Tony Daniel…
"He’s taken on some of the most frightening villains in the DC universe. Now Bruce Wayne is facing something truly scary: fatherhood" That's probably not the best way to sell this book but, that's what the official description is and it sounds pretty corny. I mean it reads like the narration you would hear over…
I'm sure you've all noticed that I've started doing a lot more reviews of graphic novels. That's because there's 3 kinds of comic book buyers (not counting the digital folk, you guys are a brand new breed): the ones who buy the monthly issues and savor the anticipation that comes in those 30 days between…
Gary and I are tackling BATMAN from the beginning, before he knows what he's doing and with a very different ultimate goal in mind. He's never left Gotham. And our Gotham and the people in it are very gray. Our heroes unlikely. Our villains hidden. Our story is only beginning with volume one. It's essentially…
The far more affordable paperback version of "Batman Illustrated, Vol. 1" is finally here for all to enjoy. This book collects the first few years (December '67 - October '69) of Neal Adams' Batman work in chronological order. It's a book that's been in print since 2003 and isn't going away anytime soon because it's…
Here we have a massive 384 pager that features the opening chapters of Grant Morrison's Batman epic and presents them in the beautiful DELUXE format that's not only easier to read, but it really shows off the art in a way the monthly issues couldn't. Content Like I said, there's 384 pages of Grant Morrison's…
Anticipation for this book is pretty high because there isn't anything else like it. I mean honestly, when was the last time you saw a Batman story take place in the 1930s with artwork of pure graphite and the whole thing had a Golden Age Hollywood feel? So Much More It's a book with a…
Batman & Robin: Dark Knight vs. White Knight collects issues #17-25 of the previous volume of Batman & Robin. Unlike the 2nd volume which began in September with the New 52, the stories found in this collection feature Dick Grayson as a lighthearted Batman paired with a grim Robin. While Grant Morrison, who started this…
The Buzz Reviewing this book is a bit intimidating for me to be honest. I'm just a guy. I'm no journalist and I can confidently say that most of my readers probably know more about comics than me. I just like Batman. A lot. And I'm vocal about it. So when DC Comics agreed to…
Two of the Batman books on shelves right now are authored by artists who really shouldn't be writing. In fact, it's pretty common for an artist to take up writing duties and completely fall flat at it, but that is definitely not the case with Lee Bermejo. It's especially astounding when you consider the bold…
