These milestone episode numbers are getting surreal. 250 episodes. Yikes. For this anniversary, we’re looking at stories where Bruce Wayne was suspected of murder. Now, if this was the real world, a lazy billionaire would be prime suspect #1 and I wouldn’t be surprised. But we are looking at a fictional world that actually has…
In the Grecian Convent of the Daughters of Lilith, the two Kane sisters, Kate and Beth, finally confront each other in Batwoman #5.
Ra’s al Ghul and the members of his family are important figures in the Bat mythos, whether they are related just to Ra’s or to Batman himself. This week, Matt McThorn is back to talk about some stories involving the House of al Ghul. We start with Greg Rucka’s tale of a post No Man’s…
Both our heroes and the Religion of Crime come to the conclusion that there is something different about the Batwoman stalking Greece in Batwoman #4.
When Jacob Kane calls Batman for help, he sends along the one person Batwoman might be closest to: her ex, Renee Montoya, the Question, in Batwoman #3.
Kate Kane lays siege to the Religion of Crime’s headquarters in Greece, driven by her grief at the death of her sister, in DC’s Batwoman #2.
DC Next Level starts here with the triumphant return of Greg Rucka to the character he co-created in Batwoman #1, with art by DaNi.
When she was created for Batman: The Animated Series, I can’t imagine the series creators realized what a life Renee Montoya would have in the comics. Technically appearing in comics before B:TAS premiered because of the much longer lead time for animation, Montoya has gone from beat cop to detective to vigilante to police commissioner…
This week, BatChat is returning to the three runs we’ve been following in order. Well, sorta. Yes, we’re reading the next arc of No Man’s Land and the penultimate arc of Grant Morrison’s epic run. But Injustice has been showing signs of severely diminishing returns the past few volumes, and we had something else we’ve…
Jim Gordon made his first appearance in Detective Comics #27. You know, the same comic that Batman made his first appearance. So, you can imagine the number of stories that Gordon has been featured in. But especially since Frank Miller made “Batman: Year One” as much about Gordon as it is about Batman, that number…
We’re back following the three runs we’ve been reading in order for a while now. No Man’s Land reaches its midpoint as the Bat family comes home to Gotham and the identity of the new Batgirl is revealed. Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne face their ultimate challenge as they are trapped between Dr. Hurt and…
Time moves ever forward. I can’t believe that Batman Begins is 20 years old this year. As I question my mortality and life choices, this week we read three stories from the Batman Begins trade, including the movie adaptation, a retelling of Batman’s origin by Denny O’Neil and a one off by Greg Rucka. This…
Detective Comics #1,100 is a big anniversary issue with a collection of stories from creators past and present from its 85+ year run. “Lost And Found” is written by Tom Taylor, drawn and colored by Mikel Janin and lettered by Wes Abbott.“Your Role In the Community” is written by Mariko Tamaki, drawn by Amancay Nahuelpan,…
Superman was pretty great, huh? We wanted to keep the good times rolling this week with an episode featuring characters other than the big guy who appeared in the movie. I really wanted to do a Batman/Mr. Terrific team up, but outside team settings, there aren’t really any, so we instead went with a classic…
