[rwp-review-recap id="0"] I garnered a lot of hatedom from my Dark Days: The Forge review, not only for my negative review of the comic itself, but also my declaration that I couldn't care less about the Dark Knight Detective, the Caped Crusader, DC's Favorite Son, the Batman. I just do not find the Bat interesting[...]

Batman vs Lex Luthor This is one of the battles that I've thought about many times, because as much as Luthor is put as the arch-nemesis for Superman, he actually makes a better Batman villain And from a psychological angle, the one type of villain Batman doesn't have The closest to Lex is Tommy Elliot[...]

This was one of the new sets of lights I really wanted to have, along with a Batman one that was featured in the DC set they had on display Each one stands about the same height as the previous models with the same plastic molding and carefully chosen placement of each color pixel I[...]

In the world of entertainment journalism, and thanks to President Donald Trump, in real world journalism as well, a tweet can be an important source of

Recently I reported on the deteriorating health of Batman artist and friend Tommy Castillo This morning Tommy passed away He was a brilliantly talent artist, a great self-promoter and a fun guy to be around I got to know him at various conventions over the years Tommy always had a funny story to tell and[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] All Star Batman #11 continues the latest Scott Snyder Bat-story with the interesting notion that is rarely explored in depth in Batman's history: the history of life-long put-upon butler and ally Alfred Pennyworth. What we know about Alfred has often been put across in small vignettes or descriptions or the odd line He's worked in[...]

As we have talked about in the past, Shiori Teshirogi's new manga — Batman and Justice League —came out on June 19th to build up hype about the upcoming Justice League film According to Anime News Network, the manga has a pretty simple premise: "The manga is titled Batman and Justice League, and features Batman, Superman, Wonder[...]

It seems a peculiarity that with Civil War, Avengers Vs X-Men, Inhumans Vs X-Men, Civil War II and elements of World War Hulk, Secret Invasion, Secret Empire, that Marvel Comics have pitted hero against hero. While in Batman #25, the beginning of The War Of Jokes And Riddles, DC Comics are rather pitting bad guy against bad guy[...]

And clear up whether or not Batman #22 topped the charts – or if Secret Empire #1 did. Because Diamond says "The United States is dominated by Hydra, with Captain America at its head, in Nick Spencer, Steve McNiven, and Jay Leisten's Secret Empire #1 from Marvel Comics, May's best-selling comic book." And that's just not true,[...]

We continue with Batman being a dick to everyone around him, and then we continue with the pointless mystery of this story. I never wondered what the mystery behind the Mask of Fate, Aquaman's Trident, and Wonder Woman's Power Bracelets are They're magic That's okay That exists in this universe, I'm fine with that Doctor Fate,[...]

This Wednesday will see the release of Batman #25 And, in Britain, Batman #24 – first and second prints, with complete Catwoman proposal, due to unexplained distribution delays.

I couldn't have been happier for him when he started drawing Batman for DC He worked on Batman: Legend of the Dark Knight, Detective Comics, Green Arrow and Toe Tags.

Jaden Smith has released a new music video offering a unique and modern take on the Batman mythos, and hopefully Warner Bros watching carefully, because these might be the kind of bold new ideas that could revitalize the ailing franchise, plagued by Ben Affleck's lack of enthusiasm and trouble keeping a director. "Batman Batman Batman[...]

Joel Schumacher's 1997 cinematic abomination Batman & Robin nearly killed the Batman movie franchise entirely, until Christopher Nolan returned to save it with an emergency reboot, Batman Begins, in 2003 The complaints about the film are too numerous to list here in this article, but all of the problems can probably be summed up with just[...]
