Batman #27 was another great installment in “The War of Jokes and Riddles”. Fan-favorite character Kite Man gets treated to a sympathetic backstory, and it was quite enjoyable.
Justice League had a decent showing this week, too. The troubled book is by no means completely turned around, but things finally started to click into place a bit. How was your week in comics?
Batman #27
King manages to make one really care about and root for the character…fulfilling my dream for the perfect Kite Man story.

Batman ’66 Meets the Legion of Super-Heroes #1
From the get-go, this little one-shot is non-stop silliness and forward momentum.

Batwoman #5
It’s background that’s nice to have and it’s beautifully rendered and I enjoyed the arc of it, but I don’t know whether we needed a whole comic book set aside for it.

Harley Quinn #24
…the main book suffers from too much talk–some of which just feels out of character and a little too on-the-nose borderline preachy to me.

Injustice 2 #6
While this issue feels a bit like a digression and some of it is heavily expository, the writing is still good and the story is moving forward.

Justice League #25
I can sincerely say that this issue both enriches and is enriched by what came before it, and for that I’m grateful.

Nightwing #25
A good “anniversary issue” in its own right and a nice “season finale,” Nightwing finishes its first year strong.

Super Sons #6
This is a promising start to a new arc, and one of the things that makes it succeed is balance.

Trinity #11
Trinity #11 concludes the latest arc, but that conclusion feels premature, and the finer point Manapul tries to make falls flat.
