I love how dangerous and confident she is, but also has this emotional conflict regarding her father, torn between him and her love for...

Even though the 70s and 80s gave us most of the best single Batman stories, the 90s gave us the longest run of great multi-part storylines.

I'm going to go with the 90s. Dixon and Moench with...

I guess Batman has to literally take you apart before he will apologize.

On Devin Grayson, I think the Bat franchise needs more woman writers. After Snyder finishes his Batman run, give it a shot, DC.

Uh, I'd like to cite the case of Batman v. Superman (1960), in which the plaintiff alleged that the defendant, a one Kal-EL of Krypton, had a machine that could see into the future as a child, but...

I usually wait for the paperback, but for Zero Year? RAM THAT HARDCOVER RIGHT IN MY COMICS HOLE.

What? That's what I call the container I keep my comics. Honest.

It's a dumb popcorn flick of a comic. Another Loeb retread, but with Jim Lee's pretty art instead of Tim Sale's pretty art. Kind of fun in its way, but ultimately kind of middling.

Paul Dini and...

I pronounce it "Mix... Mix... Mickey... Mix... Mixy-plittel... that guy with the derby hat."

It really is some of the ugliest art I've seen in Batman-related comics.

Ehhhh, I don't know. I'll have to see it from different angles, maybe see it in motion, before I can really get a bead on it.

Reading these and then NOT watching the new show is an even better idea.

I'm finding the popularity of Damian somewhat inexplicable. He's okay, after a while, but Batman already had the best Robin before when he came along.

My guess is that either it will be somebody...

HATED "Clown at Midnight"

I'm not averse to reading prose stories (I write them), but when I pick up a comic, I don't want to read that. I want to read a comic. Panels. Speech bubbles. Sequential...

Supes shouldn't have punched Lex, that was meatheaded. But Supes isn't exactly functioning at 100% at the moment and it is LEX LUTHOR he's punching, even if he's playing hero for the time being.
...

They might as well adorn it with Doctor Who GIFs and social justice rants, because it looks to me like a Tumbler.

Wow, what a convenient oversimplification. Because it takes seeing people in trouble that only he could stop to make him a hero, he isn't a real hero? Seriously, you're reading way too much into it....

I didn't get that impression at all. Just because he didn't jump IMMEDIATELY into being a superhero, doesn't mean he's an "amoral monster". He spends a lot of his time trying to find something to do...

That bastard Wraith better not damage the giant penny!

I like Superman: Earth One. It's certainly better than most of the things the New 52 is doing with Supes.

The "silent" issue was spectacular. The rest was mostly just okay. I'll probably still end up getting the trade.

I admire the ambition, but the stories themselves were terribly written mounds of garbage.

One of my least favorite runs for a Batbook ever.

They should have done a movie based on Tomasi's B&R run rather than Batman & Son.

It's sloppily paced, written haphazardly and hastily, and is full of terrible, unnecessary ideas that crippled the Bat line for years.

So yeah, not a fan.

Captain Stingaree.
