Blah. The first week of the month: a great week for comics, but a terrible week for Batman comics. It’s the week we get “Sweet Tooth”, “Swamp Thing”, “Animal Man”, “Ultimate Spider-Man” and more, but it’s also the…

New 52 – Batman: The Dark Knight #11 review
We may have seen a Dark Knight rise, but that doesn’t mean that the sun has set on our time with Batman. “Batman: The Dark Knight” is the only Batman comic out this week (not counting the digital…
After Aurora, Colorado shooting, DC postpones Batman Inc. #3
I hate the way the Aurora shooting is being handled. I hate it because he’s winning. And he isn’t winning because he was clever, because he wasn’t. I shouldn’t know his name, I shouldn’t know his face, his…
Batwing Vol. 1: The Lost Kingdom review
I think that if you’re not getting the full story, what’s the point of buying a big graphic novel? There needs to be some kind of satisfying conclusion. If you’re going to leave the reader hanging then you…
Batwoman Vol. 1: Hydrology review
“Batwoman” is easily the most beautiful book in DC’s entire lineup. If you love comics more for the art than for the story then you would be a fool to not buy “Batwoman Vol. 1: Hydrology”, it’s as…

Upcoming Comics: July 25th, 2012
It’s over. The Dark Knight rose. He, The Batman, has risen and although it will be some time before there’s ever another movie, life goes on for Batman comics. For every great or terrible movie, TV show, toy…
New 52 – Nightwing #11 Review
I must admit I was a bit worried going into issue #11. After 11 months of Court of Owls business doing yet another secret society storyline definitely didn’t peak my interest, but I’m happy to report that Kyle…
New 52 – Justice League #11 review
I always find it funny how anytime Batman takes part in a story with the rest of the DC universe, batarangs can do pretty much anything. In regular bat-titles, Batman rarely ever even throws these things anymore. Even…
Batman Beyond Unlimited #6 review
As soon as I started reading the first page of this book one thing became abundantly clear: this will be much, much better as a collected trade. Sure, the weekly digital crowd gets to read this book pretty…
