Creeping back into the limelight is the past due third issue of Batman: Gargoyle Of Gotham. As a reminder, the series follows the caped crusader as he battles sadistic killers and economic inequality. Incidentally, this version of Bruce Wayne has tired of his double life and wishes to kill his wealthy persona. Which, honestly seems…
From the writer of Amazon's Merry Little Batman film, Morgan Evans, comes a brand new adventure in that world. This time, the story takes place one month after Damian's Christmas debut, with the hero struggling with normal life. Although, the calm doesn't seem to last long. Let's discuss below! What's Wrong Lil' Man? The Merry…
There can be only one! And thankfully that doesn’t mean there’s only one issue left cause Joker the Joker who stopped Jokering or whatever is finally all wrapped up! We have a big showdown involving the two characters and a bunch of their goons and allies by their side. There’s a couple twists and turns…
Red Hood loses his ability to function and the baddies fight each other to get him back and it’s just a whole lotta nonsense from there. This mini-series is going out of its way to be crazy now and I’m kind of into it. At least I’m enjoying the absurdity a lot more than the…
Is this finally the end? Or is it only the beginning? Honestly I don’t really care. This particular arc is over and the story wrapped up. We got the two kids who are hugging and there for each other but am I here for it? Hell no.Why even bother reviewing this comic when nothing has…
It’s a bit of a running joke that I’m kind of clueless as to how long the series and mini-series I review end up being. This terrible issue not being the last of its kind like I thought means that it’s become a joke I stopped laughing at. So buckle up for the big confrontation…
Oh my god! We’re almost done! This mini-series just keeps getting worse and this is by far its least interesting issue. I wouldn’t even recommend this to kids anymore. Libraries, jump out while you still can!Stories like these are exactly why I gave the first Birds of Prey issue a 6/10. DC has burnt me…
Batman Incorporated began with Batman's faith in Ghost-Maker to lead in his stead. Unfortunately, the challenge of keeping his promise to Batman pushes him to his limits. After unsuccessfully handling "Vengeance Inc." and now "Joker Incorporated," Ghost-Maker faces the reality that he may not be able to live up to Batman's expectations after all. Some…
So our fellow reviewer Theresa Campagna has given me this unfortunate wreck of a comic to review. I had to catch up and watch as she slowly turned bitter towards what has been an endless barrage of nonsense known as Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. I’m all caught up now and would definitely be…
Knight Terrors: Catwoman #2 perhaps bites off more than it can chew, but Tini Howard’s script does a good job of balancing its examination of Selina’s relationships with both Maggie and Bruce. Leila Leiz’s art is once again a major selling point, but for readers who don’t mind a two-part elseworlds story there is more…
Ghost-Maker has lost control of Batman Incorporated! In spite of his rededication to Batman's values, Ghost-Maker doesn't have what it takes lead them against the Joker. As the Joker's plan comes together, Batman Inc. must determine once and for all who lives or dies! Over My Dead Body During the hostage crisis in China, Bat-Man…
After a disappointing first issue, is there a way to redeem Joker’s Knight Terrors arc? Well yes, but just slightly. The Sketch is a Bit Funnier The first issue of Joker’s nightmare fell flat when it came to the comedy. This sequel chapter, however, has several jokes that work a lot better. Seeing the Joker…
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…
Batman Incorporated must race against time to stop Joker's new team before they hurt themselves and others. Even so, can the team accept that the only way to stop them is to kill them? Let's find out. The Only Option Batman's refusal to kill criminals is his most repetitive criticism. For personal reasons, Batman doesn't…
Reading through this Joker series has been a slog so far. The one thing that has been keeping me going is this Knight Terrors book. Why? Because the idea 0f the Joker’s worst nightmare being a 9-5 desk job sounds brilliant! But how does Rosenberg execute this idea? I had high expectations for this book.…
During this week's Anime Expo 2023, Warner Bros. Japan and WIT Studio unveil their new Suicide Squad based anime series called Suicide Squad Isekai. The story follows Batman foes Harley Quinn, The Joker, and other DC villains as they find themselves in a "violent fantasy world." Of course, the word "Isekai" itself refers to the…
A miracle has happened in this issue of Joker. We get plot progression! It’s not much plot progression. In fact, I could pretty much sum it up in 3 sentences. However, at least we get somewhere. Killer Croc and Joker Throughout this story, we’ve met various Batman rogues who each have a different opinion on who…
I don’t hate this issue of Joker as much as I have the last few issues. There are some good things to glean from it. But if you’re hoping for a lot of plot progression here, after chapter after chapter of this series has gone no where, well you’re out of luck. About Comic Book…
The Professor Pyg two-parter has finally come to a conclusion! As Batman Inc. closes in on their quarry, Ghost-Maker faces an unexpected temptation. Ghost-Maker uses the hunt for Lazlo "Professor Pyg" Valentin as an exercise for Batman Inc. In the previous issue, Pyg somehow manages to capture major Gotham villains in search of his stolen…
