Be careful with those old issues of Batman Family. Apparently DC only includes the lead story from those issues with the digital purchase. Those were 100-page books that had multiple features, so...

Thank you, and likewise of course. I've never really bought into the "Bruce Wayne is a mask" idea - one area where I part ways with the O'Neil-era interpretation. To me the whole point of the...

It's similar. The ComiXology reader is IMO superior. The resolution is better, particularly on a later-model iPad. Unlimited's not bad by any means, but the resolution on the ComiXology reader is...

I enjoyed Rucka's run, with some caveats. Visually it was very distinct, with the muted color pallette, and I always thought that worked really well. There are a couple of issues in that run in...

Book of the Week - September 17
Tough week to judge - Id've found it hard to believe anything would top Multiversity but Supreme Blue Rose #3 pulled it off. Ellis has really taken the Alan Moore ball and run with it. Tula Lotay's...

Marvel Comics This Week - September 17
Avengers #35 jumps forward eight months to a dramatically-altered landscape. I'm not clear on whether this is an actual or a possible future, but essentially the crux of it is that SHIELD has, for...

DC Comics This Week - September 17
The Spoiler moves front and center in Batman Eternal #24, while Batman fights Dr. Double-X (except he's not called that yet). Some interesting touches this issue - I particularly like the idea of...

Okay. Thank you for the reply. And again, my issue wasn't so much with the thread turning into Iteration #96735 of "DC: Threat or Menace?" - that's really none of my business or concern - as with...

BTW few tips for anyone diving into the NML stuff -
The Azrael: Agent of the Bat issues are completely skippable. They have nothing at all to do with the overarching plot and aren't very good. ...

Well, I think it's a tic that both Tynion and Higgins have as writers - they're both talented and do good work but both are prone to having characters make speeches at times. Seeley scripted this...

Look for a "Gotham"-themed sale next week, featuring all of Gotham Central, some various GCPD-centric books, and (for some reason) the No Man's Land storyline.
Also I believe IDW has a GI Joe sale...
