    There's another early hint at Jason's anger issues in Batman #402-403. Fans didn't invent the idea out of thin air.

    Tim had his time in the sun and people have simply moved on. It doesn't help that his characterization has ranged from mediocre to dreadful since the New 52 started (and there were shades of this...

    Deadly Knights. Astonishingly, those events are referenced as well in Detective Comics #689. Peter Parker of Earth-1 appears in Crisis on Infinite Earths according to the compendium in the absolute...

    Heh, this is a good way of putting it. I miss the days when it was a big deal when someone found out Batman's identity. As editor of the Bat-titles in the 80s and 90s I think Denny O'Neil really...
  5. Hmm. I believe this is the first time the...

    Hmm. I believe this is the first time the September 21st date for the Wayne murders has been referenced. The June 26th date is more popular, but an autumn timeframe is referenced variously in (for...

    The newer trade paperbacks are also the only ones to have "The God of Fear" (Shadow of the Bat 16-18) in its proper place and reading order. It was included in the old TPBs up through the 2012...

    Tom King just finished a new version of Batman and Joker's first encounter in Brave and the Bold. I wonder how this will sync up (or not) with that story.

    What exactly is this poll asking? Founding membership? The classic 7-member line-up will always include J'onn, in my opinion. I still think about Dinah as a founding JLAer because I adore those...

    No. The glacial release schedule means some fans have actually died of old age waiting for their favorite series to get released. DC's problem is their back catalog is absolutely massive, and it is...

    Huh. Very interested by the JLA: Book One compendium. If they actually finish the entire series in this style I'll be astonished. Sure wish these could've been available when I did my JLA...

    Man of Steel's Batman does feel anachronistic, especially with the capsule belt; but I think it's just the unavoidable consequence of trying to have the wider DCU interact with the world of Miller...

    Doubtful. It seems clear to me that editors were allowing these references to Diana in the early part of the timeline in anticipation of making it official with Infinite Crisis. Regardless, since she...

    By the early 2000s they were already massaging Diana back into the early years era of the timeline; she is mentioned in Catwoman: When in Rome, alongside an appearance from Cheetah. Trinity doesn't...

    In DC's official timelines in the 90s and early 2000s, they actually did push Ra's al Ghul's first encounter with Bruce up to Dick's first year as Robin. This is also the case in Matt Wagner's...

    She doesn't have to be maskless. They could literally change nothing about her standard design except removing the stitches and I would be happy. Or it could be a decent look if she had her mouth...

    It's a terrible signature that was never supposed to last past No Man's Land. Everyone seems to have forgotten that the stitched-on portion of Cass's mask was originally meant to cover the portion of...

    I haven't kept up with continuity lately, but I find it surprising that she would know the identities of the entire family, and that Batman would be so nonchalant about everyone sitting down in a...

    Yeah, it's pretty good. Anything that gets rid of the mouth stitches is fine by me.

    They're all just sitting there with their masks off? What the hell.

    Wow, fantastic art. Some of the best I've seen in years. Wish all of DC's comics were as visually interesting as this.

    The one thing that should have been done (and this has been conceded by some at DC) was restarting the entire line at number one instead of carrying on the old issue numberings. Apparently there was...

    Even if Morrison butchered Talia (which may be true) I think it's a very big stretch to ascribe racism, either conscious or unconscious, as his motivation. Same with Jezebel Jet and Batwing. The idea...

    In various Who's Who profiles of the late 80s and early 90s, Batman's confrontation with the Reaper is said to be his last case as a solo agent before the death of the Flying Graysons. So perhaps we...

    In Dark Victory, after Bruce adopts Dick, Bruce says that he never found the man who killed his parents (the Waynes). But he does meet their killer in Year Two. Grant Morrison would later retcon the...
