1 on Batman Incorporated #6 reviewAfter an encounter with Ghost-Maker's ex-sidekick leaves them shaken, Batman Inc. flies to Gotham to do Batman a solid. However, Professor Pyg's rampage could be a more complex nightmare waiting to happen! Clownhunter may not have killed Ghost-Maker for Phantom-One, but he hasn't forgotten the events of the previous issue. While he hasn't left…
How redeemable can you make a villain? That's a rhetorical question, of course. The fluid nature of storytelling means that you can do whatever you please with a villain: an antagonist can be good, evil and anywhere in between. Nor is "redeemability" some sort of hard metric: when Darth Vader can still become one with…
Hey folks! Matina is out, so I'll be handling the Batgirls review this week. I'll be up front, I haven't been keeping up with this book week to week, but I did some rush reading in preparation for this, so if I get something wrong, you know why. Alright, with the disclaimer out of the way,…
Okay. I'm gonna be honest. I already had thoughts about this back when it was announced. Mostly thoughts of "oh god no", "boy they sure want to milk The Killing Joke for all it's worth, huh?", and "oh god please no why are you making The Riddler kill people why oh god oh god." The Riddler is…
This month, Tom King’s latest mini-series wraps up with issue #6 of Batman: Killing Time. With last month’s reveal of Clock King stepping in to claim the eye everyone has spent the past five issues trying to claim, just what answers will he have for us now? This month it’s just me reviewing the title,…
Five issues in and I know Killing Time is going to be a book I’ll genuinely enjoy re-reading once it’s complete. As much as I go back and forth on the little things that aren’t perfect about this series, I have to admit that I like it. I like it quite a bit. This issue…
Over the past two issues of this arc we’ve seen the Riddler weave riddles over the airwaves and Gotham citizens committing crimes without a solid reason. Tied with it all, is the mystery of Judge Donovon and the first of these crimes: the bombing of her courtroom. With the arc wrapping up, will Batman finally…
We are officially at the halfway point in Tom King’s Killing Time. We’ve seen a theft, the start of an investigation, and our thieves waiting for their buyer, which means it’s now time for things to go very very wrong. There’s a lot I enjoyed about this issue of Killing Time. The story generally feels…
When I first applied to write reviews for this site I wrote a practice review for Detective Comics and sent it in, with the hope that I could simply join the team. And now at last, I’m lucky enough to be given the opportunity to properly review the title itself. I am so excited to…
I love heists, the Riddler, and a good old fashioned villain team up so of course I was going to at least check out Tom King’s newest mini-series, Killing Time. Focused on Batman’s early days, the story revolves around Riddler, Catwoman, and Penguin teaming up to participate in the heist of the century! And I…
Despite being a tie-in for the Fear State event, fans of the series should definitely still pick Catwoman #35 up. Ram V’s script does an excellent job of melding its obligations of being a tie-in issue, while still developing several plot threads and character motivations from the main series. There’s a great sense of continuity…
Batman: Reptilian #1’s dark aesthetic doesn’t match the amount of fun within its pages. Garth Ennis has...mixed views on Batman and his less than reverent attitude toward the character is apparent, but Ennis’ sense of humor mixed with Liam Sharp’s striking art combine for a truly unique reading experience. The opening sequence sets the tone…
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…
