    I can second this. I loved the film, and it is easily the most faithful Batman in my opinion. This Batman is tortured, aloof, and even violent, but he's clearly so empathetic and compassionate at his...

    Having seen the film myself, I must weigh in here. The movie is dark, but it presents Batman unambiguously as a hero, albeit one with some issues to work through. The film seems to say that maybe...

    I enjoyed Part 2. Wasn't as blown away as I was for Part 1, but that might just be my expectations being higher. I'll hold off on spoilers, but it did fix some of my issues with the later portions of...

    I think Long Halloween is a book that is beloved because A) the art is amazing, B) it has great thematic ideas, and C) it encapsulates many corners of the Batman universe and feels definitive in a...

    Maybe it's less about importance and more about iconography. Loeb and Sale's versions of Scarecrow, Hatter, Ivy, etc are so iconic and have shaped their future appearances. The Riddler is just a...

    I think Riddler was cut for several reasons. One, he is the arguably the least essential villain that appears in that story, since he never truly fights Batman and he's only in the one issue. Plus,...

    So, I thought this movie was awesome. Like, maybe my 3rd favorite Batman movie after Begins and Dark Knight.

    First off, I feel like this learned from Year One and (to a far lesser extent) Dark...

    What about David Graves from the second Geoff Johns JL arc with Jim Lee? He had a cool concept I think and I enjoyed that story quite a bit.

    Rank the Superman Animated Films

    So, with Man of Tomorrow having been out for half a year, how would my fellow Superman fans rank his solo animated flicks and why? Here are the movies I am including.

    Superman: Brainiac Attacks...

    So, when Man of Tomorrow came out last year, I was lukewarm on it. I liked a lot about it but I remember finding it kinda boring. However, with the Long Halloween trailer having the same art style...

    What issues are you referring to here? I am curious.

    For my money, if we are talking multi-media, Batman Begins is the next best thing after Year One because it covers Bruce's complete journey...

    I'm frankly baffled by the negativity towards Superman TAS on the CBR forums. It's a great series that has some of the best portrayals of a large portion of the cast and the Darkseid storylines are...

    So, I feel pretty safe in saying that was the weakest episode so far. This isn't to say it was bad by any stretch. 5 years ago, when I was still in shock at how Zack Snyder turned one of my favorite...

    Any use of the rogues is a must. Superman has a good rogues gallery and adaptations criminally underuse them.

    I know the character is overused and a lot of us are probably sick of him, but what are the chances of seeing Zod as a season long big bad? I think he could work, sending monsters from the phantom...

    Untold Tales is in the top 5 runs on the character. It has great used of the rogues, an excellent portrayal of Peter, fixes tons of continuity errors of the original Lee days, created coke really...

    Venom in Spider-Man 3 is better than Venom in the Venom movie. Even more, I think Venom in Spider-Man 3 is a solid combo of Ultimate Venom and the 90s cartoon Venom. He needed more screen time, but...

    I read Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man (2019) for the first time and I quite enjoyed it. The plots are a little wacky for my taste (I prefer Spidey to be more grounded in street crime and mad...

    I'd replace "Revenge of the Green Goblin" with Untold Tales of Spider-Man, but otherwise I completely second this list.

    One Small Break is, for me, a top 10 Spider-Man story and Fusion needs to be revived ASAP. The follow up Jenkins did was really underwhelming.

    I think Spectacular Spider-Man 310 is the easiest addition to best of lists. It was a Wonderfull little story that captured the heart and soul of Spider-Man and it makes me cry every time I read it. ...

    These are great points, but I still don't care for the organic web shooters :)

    JMD's Harry Osborn saga is top 5 Spidey story. Honestly, you can tell Spencer loves DeMatteis and Peter David the most of past Spider-writers, since his two biggest stories have been sequels to KLH,...

    I'm not a fan of them. They work ok with streamlining the origin but it undercuts Peter's brilliant scientific mind, and the Raimi movies never made up for that anywhere else. Sure, he had a few...
