The Trixter image above is up and the following, from Tigerbane on, show what's to come… Why do I get the feeling New York Comic Con will be […]
Beat by beat by beat.Many have pooh-poohed our original rumour, pointing out that it would only lead to Batman also suffering the same fate as his link to Nightwing and Bruce Wayne's link to Dick Grayson are too well known.But no, I don't think that's the case at all, Bruce Wayne is already directly linked[...]

Batman Inc #9.But someone else died in recent issues too, and he gets his own funeral But, appropriately enough, it's like Mother Theresa dying just after Princess Diana, it kind of gets lots in the wash.Which is why it was rather gratifying for Knight to get his own few pages in the new issue[...]
Now that we've seen the final art pages of Batman Inc #8, it's clear that a few editorial changes were made Here's a compare and contrast of the published art and Chris Burnham's pencils.In the Damian kebab scene, the detail on Damian's face has gone, as has the detail to the body, now lost in[...]

Also issue 0.1 is pretty strong on the benefits of personal gun ownership in the Marvel universe, because you never know when your home security will be compromised by outsiders.And today we have Batman Inc #8 In which it is specifically designed that this time, no matter how hard he tries, how fast he runs,[...]
You don't even look at the cover of Batman Inc #8 because you've heard itself that it might be spoilery But, before you read the comic, you read Flash instead.We may have to spoil the ending of that issue as well, but not now.Because in the Channel 52 bit at the end of Flash.. it[...]
