The Batman of Zur-En-Arrh

Favourite Bat-Writer?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

I’ve thought about this. I love Morrison’s ‘Hh’ Batman. But is he the best? Or even my favourite?

No. Rucka? I love Rucka’s Detective Comics. But again, no. This is hard.

But in the end, I think I’ll have to go with someone I think gets Batman the most.

This man:

Dennis O’Neill.

As always, tell me here, or on Twitter how wrong or right I am.

Bat-Comics You Should Own

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

‘Hh’. Yes, not an actual Bat-Comic, I guess. But still. Morrison’s JLA is as much a Batman book as it’s a Superman book, a Flash book, a – yeah, you get the point.

It’s also one of the finest superhero books ever. I must say though, that Porter’s art isn’t really my thing. But the story is top notch superhero action.

And luckily DC is collecting Morrison’s JLA in neat Deluxe Hardcovers!

One of the best thing’s Morrison did, and what JLU did too, was open the League up. No longer was it ‘just’ Martian Manhunter, Flash, Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman, etc. No, they held auditions. Hell (Heh), one of the new members is an actual angel.

So, now that the League is freaking huge, no longer were they fighting mundane villains of the week, no, only earth endangering bad bad things. Like Luthor. Or Darkseid. Big, and sometimes even new villains like Prometheus (Worthy of an entry himself, and might just make a new Villain feature just so I can feature him).

I hope this little thing persuaded you to try it out.

Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths!

Leaked! And I watched it! Thoughts, non-spoilery!

So, that was fairly awesome. Dwayne McDuffie is a great writer. It doesn’t feature Batman too much, but is a lot of fun.

I won’t go into it too much, since it hasn’t been officially released yet, but I highly recommend it!
