It seems to me like Lobdell exited the wrong book. While I found both volumes of the New 52 Teen Titans to be abysmal, author Scott Lobdell's Red Hood and the Outlaws was one of the most fun Bat titles that I could find. With Volume 2 I was a little put off by the…
The first volume of the New 52 Nightwing's adventures relied pretty heavily on readers knowing all about the Court of Owls storyline going on in Batman. This volume still requires you know a bit about The Court of Owls, but rewards you for your effort with the best Night of Owls tie-in as well as…
I have reviewed a lot of books since the battle for who owns Gotham ended. The Court of Owls' attack on Gotham City that dominated bat-comics for nearly all of 2012 felt like a distant memory when it came time to review Batman, Vol. 2: The City of Owls. So I went back and read…

Finally! Someone else got the memo that these Talons are supposed to be bad ass. First things first, get this book. I think it might be my favorite of the cross-over so far. Second, when you read it, listen to this:
What we have here is a fun and exceptionally well-drawn series that stays pretty consistent. I don't usually review it because it's not very "Batman" (except for a moment in issue #3 which is one of the best Bat-moments in any book yet in the New 52), but I have read the entire series so…
I've been getting quite a few questions on Twitter and in the comments here at Batman-News about what the reading order is for The Night of the Owls crossover event. From what I've seen so far, the only issue that rocked the boat was "Detective Comics" #9, which should be read after "Batman" #9. But…
