Batman #86. New writers, editors, artists, we can all forget about what some saw as those stylistic excesses of Tom King for the past four years of Batman. No more discussions of whether it was the roof, the boat or the beach, no more Kite-Man hell yeahs, no more punching people with POWs, no more […]
Next week sees DC Comics publish Batman #86, the first issue of James Tynion IV, Tony S Daniel and Danny Miki's new run on Batman. On his mailing list, Tynion has been teeing up a couple of new characters, the assassins Gunsmith and Mr Teeth. And in his new mailing list, Tynion shares the script […]
Okay, 2250 words, settle in. But first a trip back almost two hundred years. In 1831, Lord Macaulay argued in the House of Commons in London that there was "nothing is so ill-made… as the laws… Our bridges, our canals, our roads, our modes of communication, fill every stranger with wonder… Can there be a […]
Tony S Daniel and Danny Miki have been working together on the current Batman: City Of Bane storyline at DC Comics. And it seems there will be some continuity from one regime change to the other. As James Tynion IV takes over writing the comic from Tom King, just announced at the Batman Day event […]
Batman has been busy enjoying a lovely camping trip with his daddy, but when he returns to Gotham City for Batman #75 next week, he may find that things have drastically changed in the City of Bane storyline. For example, some of his greatest villains have become… the law? This purportedly leaked page from Batman […]
Superstar writer Tom King and superstar artist Tony S. Daniel had a creative solution when DC Comics refused to let them use a requested villain in September's Batman #55. Speaking at his spotlight panel at San Diego Comic-Con, King revealed that Daniel wanted to use King Tut as a villain in the upcoming comic. King […]
The day of Batman and Catwoman's wedding has arrived at last, and the two gather their witnesses and a judge to marry them off at dawn on a rooftop in downtown Gotham.

A year later, Bruce Wayne is training himself with the guns left behind by the Batman. He has Booster Gold chained up in his basement and is trying to repair Skeets in the hope of saving his parents.

Apologies for the belated return and the lack of an entry last week, but Comic Book Wins and Losses is back! I'm still struggling to hold me to my own column schedule. Anyway, let's get started! What books took off this past week? What crashed? Read below to find the answers! Win: Action Comics Special […]
Booster Gold returns to this alternate version of Gotham a year later (in local time). His new plan is to introduce Catwoman to Bruce Wayne and convince him to accept the "true timeline." However, this version of Catwoman is…a little different. Meanwhile, this iteration of Gotham worsens, and Thomas Wayne develops health issues. You may […]
Ethan Avery, AKA Damage, has gone on the loose. Damage is a massive creature created by the military for as-of-yet unknown purposes. He is a walking weapon, and his handlers will do anything to get him back. So, Damage is very reminiscent of the Hulk. He's a massively bulky creature. He was created by the […]
Damage #1 from DC Comics by Tony S. Daniel, Robert Venditti, Danny Miki, Tomeu Morey, and Tom Napolitano will be the first release from DC's New Age of Heroes, coming out January 17th. To say that this title is just DC doing Marvel's Incredible Hulk would be ultimately reductive and unfair. Certainly, there's clear visual similarities, […]
On the Earth of the Devastator in the Dark Multiverse, Superman turns upon those he protected. He goes on a killing spree across the planet until Batman stands in his way. With nothing left to lose, Batman injects himself with a special strain of the Doomsday virus, finally bringing down the Man of Tomorrow. On […]

Posted by on Reddit /r/comicbooks by user ME24601 the cover to Batman & Robin Eternal #3 – the first issue of which is out later today… …and the return of Cassandra Cain, drawn here by Tony S Daniel.
For Batman Day, DC Comics and retailers are giving away a Batman comic that reprints the first issue of the Batman: Endgame story. It also has an eight page preview of the new Batman & Robin Eternal comic by James Tynion, Scott Snyder and Tony S Daniel, starting in a week-and-a-bit. And it looks like […]
That was how Tony S Daniel closed out the first issue of Detective Comics after the New 52 reboot. It was gross then, it's gross now. But Tony wasn't done. Of late, in the Deathstroke comics, the character has been rejuvenated, with two fully functioning eyes and, um, mostly covered in blood. But mostly other […]
Talking to CBR about the appearance of Cassandra Cain in the upcoming Batman And Robin Eternal weekly series from DC Comics, Tony Daniel wanted to make something very clear. She's also one of my favorite characters. I loved her in "Batgirl," and I loved working on her with Geoff Johns as she was in our […]
First we were told he was working on Gen 13. Then on Teen Titans. By genuine DC Comics employees who believed it to be true. But we were wrong, and now MTV has been given the scoop by DC Comics, Tony S Daniel's next comic will be a relaunch of their Deathstroke comic which was cancelled this […]
