Bleeding Cool is a hive of differing opinions and ideas, and none more so than thoughts on Batman from Joe Glass and Joshua Davison.

[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.

"Cowl Footage 1931" is homage to the year The Shadow made his pulp debut.
