We salute you, and the keenness you bring to your passion. And for once, DC Comics took the top three…with a Batman/Justice League combination as Marvel had a relatively weaker week – this doesn't count the Friday released titles however. 1 Justice League #47 2 Batman Europa #3 3 Batman & Robin #13 4 Deadpool & Cable Split Second #1 5[...]

The big books, Batman, Harley Quinn, Justice League, Batgirl, that's a given But others are falling into the fold, Superman, Green Lantern, Suicide Squad… its possible this may continue across many others. What's the effect of this? Well, marketshare will rise, it is impossible for it not to And it may make a lot more sense financially[...]

THOR'S COMIC REVIEW COLUMN 12/14/15 THIS WEEK'S REVIEWS (GRAIG SAVES THE DAY!): Batman & Robin Eternal #1-10 Robin War #1/Grayson #15 Batman & Robin Eternal #1-10 ($3.99/$2.99, DC Comics) Robin War #1/Grayson #15 ($4.99/$3.99, DC Comics) By Graig Kent The fact that 2015 marks the 75th anniversary of Dick Grayson's first appearance in Detective Comics #38 seems almost an afterthought.  Unlike[...]

Epic writer of Batman, Wytches, American Vampire, etc Scott Snyder, often shares little bits of awesome stuff on Twitter Recently Batman has come up against Gotham City's newest villain Mr Bloom, but could a more familiar face be next? Snyder tweeted that he was in transit to Burbank "plotting some Batman." Of course, when he says[...]

Hot Toys makes some of the best 1/6th scale figures in the industry and now they are teasing their upcoming figures for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Hopefully this is just the start and we'll get a Wonder Woman figure and maybe some of the other rumored heroes. "Black and blue, god vs man, day[...]

We salute you, and the keenness you bring to your passion. And, maybe with a boost of a possible return of Bruce to the Bat, maybe with boost from Dark Knight awareness, but Batman beats out both Secret Wars and Star Wars this week, with Walking Dead making a challenge…. 1 Batman #47 2 Secret Wars #8 3 Star[...]

Yesterday, Bleeding Cool ran an article reporting that DC Comics had approached a number of Marvel exclusive writers and artists asking about their contractual availability to take over the Batman monthly comic. This would be a long term plan and may be nothing more than DC Comics preparing for every eventuality regarding creators Scott Snyder and[...]

The Batman monthly comic book has remained the most consistent, bestselling monthly comic book in the comic store direct market, and the current New 52 run by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo has entrenched it as a sales monster, the one sure rock of reliability in the charts for DC. But Greg Capullo is moving on[...]

The latest rumor from Latino Review involves Will Smith and Ben Affleck… if things go well with the Suicide Squad movie then it's believed that Smith's Deadshot would join Affleck in a solo Batman movie But it really wouldn't be a solo movie at that point and more of a team-up. Getting Affleck and Smith together[...]

It is re-run, as the comic is published today. While everyone is obsessed about one upcoming Batman comic book, I wanted to look at a different one. Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 is a game of chess It's all about taking characters and placing them in different positions across the board, The Bat and The Croc, The Turtles[...]

Even if most of them aren't "official". But what makes a full Robin? Over in Gotham Academy, they have a half Robin… And in Batman, there is some mockery over a "black Robin" But Duke Thomas (for it is he) is making himself far more prominent across the Batbooks The lead in We Are Robin, seeing through Spyral[...]

Well…this is pretty surprising. Last night at the Game Awards, it was revealed that Telltale Games had made a deal with DC and Warner Brothers and a new Batman series is incoming as a result There really isn't much more to the announcement than that, other than it will launch in 2016. Telltale of course have a[...]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwFzjio9Y9I Taken from Periscope, Jim Lee introduces next week's Collector's Edition of Dark Knight III #1, an oversized

The internet is currently abuzz with the Batman v Superman talk as everyone mulls over the value of the trailer that hit overnight (which I thought was alright.) And as if it was planned, the Batman V Superman Batsuit and Batmobile in Batman: Arkham Knight are now going for free on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One[...]

DC media partner The Hollywood Reporter reports that Paul Dini is writing an original graphic novel for Vertigo about a time when he was hospitalised after a vicious mugging on the street of Los Angeles in 1993. And it's also a Batman comic. Drawn by Eduardo Risso, Dark Night: A True Batman Story, is an autobiographical comic to join the[...]

There was also Dark Knight III: The Master Race #1. I thought it was all right, as things go, but I preferred the upcoming Batman/TMNT crossover But what did everybody else think? How many Batarangs out of five? Let's have a look… Comic Book: For a book that goes to press with just an unbelievable amount of history and[...]

Indeed, at one point it even moves, back, back to a Mazzuchelli look straight from Batman Year One, a reference that I really wasn't expecting And no bad thing for that. Because this book isn't just about reviving one aspect of Batman, but reflecting a whole history before turning it on its head. It also does a[...]

While everyone is obsessed about one upcoming Batman comic book, I wanted to look at a different one. Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 is a game of chess It's all about taking characters and placing them in different positions across the board, The Bat and The Croc, The Turtles and The Foot, The Shredder and The Splinter. They[...]

But long awaited Batman Europa proves it was not forgotten with a Jim Lee boost and beats the relaunch of The Mighty Thor And it's Harley Quinn's presence that lifts both her title and Suicide Squad onto the chart as well- though not quite as high as Mark Millar and Rafael Albuquerque's launch of the[...]

The last page cliffhanger for the first issue of Dark Knight III was spoiled by CBR and DC Comics in a previous interview. We tried to show how it might
